Is it possible to retrieve magnet link via transmission-remote?

May have been patched since the question was asked, but running

transmission-remote -l -t 13 -i | grep magnet

worked for me, got the magnet link for torrent number 13.

If you want only the link, you can sed away the title:

transmission-remote -l -t 13 -i | grep magnet | sed -e "s/^ *Magnet: //"

You may need to add a parameter --auth <username>:<password> for authentication.


This worked for me :

transmission-remote -a magnet:?xt=urn...[magnet_link_here]...
