Yeah the deluge webui is what I use on the desktop. Doesn't play nicely with ios safari at all though.

I ended up just installing an ftp client. 90% of what I wanted to do was add torrents and I can do that just by uploading to a watch folder.
Although your mention of ssh reminds me that I first tried to set up a shortcut that ssh'd the torrent over instead, which would be a preferable set up if it worked. It creates the file on my server but the file size stays at 0 bytes and the shortcut never finishes running. Any idea what I did wrong?

- nneonneo 7y agoYeah, shortcuts aren’t like UNIX pipes, so “cat >” will create the file but cat will hang forever waiting for data to come in over stdin. I’m guessing you’ll need an scp-type command rather than an ssh command since you need to copy a local file over to the remote end.
- austhrow743 7y agoUnfortunately Shortcuts only allows for running scripts over ssh, not just general terminal commands. I might be out of luck on this one.
