Control transmission with tasker

[julianz]

I was trying to setup a crontab for having a higher download speed at
night, when I recognized that the best way to do that would be the
"Going to sleep" task I have set up in tasker (just I case I want to
keep browsing reddit all night long...).

Does anybody know a way to control transmission with tasker?
Transdroid was no help and I couldn't find a locale plugin. Haven't
tried remote-transmission or torrent-fu. Maybe something with http-
post and "turtleEnabled"?

You would be better off submitting a request to one of developers at
transmission to add some android intents to set say upload/download
speed from a coding point of view it is dead simple and tasker
supports sending intents..

There is already a request at transdroid.

I got great response from the developer of transmission:

As I understand from this, I only have to implement support for some
intents. THis is pretty easy. What about these:

org.transdroid.control.set_transfer_rates
Needs extras 'UPLOAD_RATE' and 'DOWNLOAD_RATE' which are both
integers in KB/s
org.transdroid.control.pause_all
org.transdroid.control.resume_all
org.transdroid.control.stop_all
org.transdroid.control.start_all

If native turle mode is implemented (see issue 141), I will add an
intent:
org.transdroid.control.set_turle_mode
Needs an extra 'ENABLED' which is a boolean

This will execute the action on the last-used server configuration. If
you want to execute it to a specific server, add another extra
'DAEMON' which is the ID string for the server configuration.

To find the ID string for a server: the first server (as listed in the
settings) is "" (an empty string) and any subsequent servers have "1",
"2", "3", etc.

Sounds good?

Could someone who understands what he's saying please check it out and
confirm it for him?
