Resource/Provider

`transmission_torrent_file`

Download a file via the BitTorrent protocol. The usage semantics are like that of the existing file and remote_file resources. This allows very fast downloads for files that are part of large BitTorrent swarms. The Ubuntu 10.04 LTS ISO (around 700MB) downloads in about 50 seconds.

Actions

:create: Download a file via the BitTorrent protocol

Attribute Parameters

path: name attribute. the path to the file
torrent: torrent file of the swarm to join. can either be a url or local file path
blocking: should the file be downloaded in a blocking way? If true Chef will download the file in a single Chef run, if false Chef will check for a completed download during each Chef run until the download is complete. default is true.
continue_seeding: should the file continue to be seeded to the swarm after download? default is false.
owner: The owner for the file
group: The group owner of the file (string or id)
rpc_host: the address of the Transmission RPC host to connect to. default is localhost.
rpc_port: the port of the Transmission RPC host to connect to. default is 9091.
rpc_username: the username of the Transmission RPC account. default is transmission.
rpc_password: the password of the Transmission RPC account . should probably be node['transmission']['rpc_password'] which by default is a secure password generated for this node.

Examples

Download the lucid ISO

transmission_torrent_file "/home/ubuntu/ubuntu.iso"  do
  torrent "http://releases.ubuntu.com/lucid/ubuntu-10.04.1-server-i386.iso.torrent"
  owner 'ubuntu'
  group 'ubuntu'
  rpc_username node['transmission']['rpc_username']
  rpc_password node['transmission']['rpc_password']
  action :create
end

Continue seeding after download

transmission_torrent_file "/home/ubuntu/ubuntu.iso"  do
  torrent "http://releases.ubuntu.com/lucid/ubuntu-10.04.1-server-i386.iso.torrent"
  owner 'ubuntu'
  group 'ubuntu'
  continue_seeding true
  rpc_username node['transmission']['rpc_username']
  rpc_password node['transmission']['rpc_password']
  action :create
end
