Lightbulb  [REQUEST] SABnzbd+ Controller (NBZ) Python Script for XBMC? Post: #1
I was wondering if anyone would be willing to make a python script to control and interact with SABnzbd and newbin, and possibly other nzb sites.

SABnzbd+ (http://www.sabnzbd.org) is an active branch off of the original sabnzbd, which is no longer being developed.

the latest .4.0b2 version currently features:
Major
  • Secure NNTP (SSL)
  • User-defined categories with custom download directories
  • Redesigned RSS automation
  • Secondary user interface (inc. iPhone skin)
  • KB/s download speed limiting
  • New look for the default skin
  • Skin color themes
  • Redesigned Plush skin
  • Episode folder sorting
  • Email is now done in Python, not as an extra perl script
Minor
  • Option to not download samples files in downloads
  • Option to pause downloading during post-processing
  • Improved scheduling
  • More empty-queue actions
  • Extended API
  • Script folder containing user scripts to apply to a download
  • More readable Queue ETA prediction
  • Delete individual history items
  • Extra information shown for history items
Also a very important feature of this version is that it now auto sorts the .rar's to enable streaming of files during download.

Possible resources for anyone willing to take this on:

SABnzbd Controller
- a separate controller for sabnzbd, no longer functioning
http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid...ht=sabnzbd

Torrent Controller - also included a module for sabnzbd and newzbin and several other sites
http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid...ht=sabnzbd

HellaXBMC - a script for hellanzb(another nzb downloader)
http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid...ht=sabnzbd

If you have any questions or there is any way I can help let me know.

I posted this on the SABnzbd+ forums as well, and one of the SABnzbd+ devs was very interested and offered his help with the SABnzbd+ api to anyone willing to take this on.

Here's the post on SABnzbd+'s forums

Excellent work PainToad..

I get messages asking me to update this and Ive never got around to it. I would be happy to add you as a developer to the sources so that you can make changes and upload them so people automatically get your updates.

Im glad someone else can edit my foobar coding..

after looking at SABnzbd+, I see that it supports the site that I just listed, I'll have to check that out when I get out of this horrible place called work.

My hack, which will be out 'when-its-done', will only work with tvnzb.

We should be able to make it compatible for all which were NZBSRUS, NZBMATRIX, TVNZB AND NEWZBIN although I cant remember how much of NEWZBIN i got working as I dont use NEWZBIN myself and it was just changing over to v3..

Maybe could setup BINSEARCH and NEWZLEECH aswell.

What I really wanted to do was to create an option to stream files from the source, but the guy working on the xbox code dropped off the planet..
