deluge

Ansible Deluge role

Installs and configures Deluge BitTorrent client.

Caveat

Deluge is saving its configuration to files. You should be aware that templating these config files and then changing the configuration in a different way (through Web UI or deluge-console), is breaking the idempotence of this role.

Requirements

salted_sha1 A simple Ansible filter plugin that outputs salted SHA1-encrypted passwords.

{{ password | salted_sha1('salt_goes_here') }}

Role Variables

Do not keep the passwords in plain-text. Use ansible-vault for encryption.

deluge_users_to_add: List of users to add to the auth file of Deluge. http://dev.deluge-torrent.org/wiki/UserGuide/Authentication
deluge_users_to_remove: List of users to remove from the auth file of Deluge.
deluge_config_dir: Path to the dir holding the configuration files and directories.
deluge_web: Binary switch for setting up and configuring Deluge's Web UI.
deluge_web_port: Port on which Deluge's Web UI is listening.
deluge_web_log_level: Log level for the UI. See available options with deluge-web --help.
deluge_web_daemon_args: Arguments passed to the deluge-web binary that's running as a service. See available options with deluge-web --help.
deluge_web_password: Password to be used for the Web UI.
deluge_web_password_salt: Password salt used when generating the Web UI password.

The options above are more system-related, whereas the following options are specific to how Deluge is operating. Check defaults/main.yml for the default values and the official docs to learn more.
