It allows you to connect to a running Deluge instance over the network and call remote methods to query torrent status, manage downloads, and control the daemon programmatically. The client supports both direct method calls via the `call()` method and attribute-style access (e.g., `client.core.get_torrents_status()`), and can be used as a context manager for automatic connection cleanup.\n\nThe package has no external runtime dependencies and installs cleanly on Python 3.8 through 3.12. It includes a local client variant for connecting to Deluge instances on the same machine without credentials, and supports automatic reconnection with retry logic. The main limitation is that it does not handle asynchronous events from the daemon, so additional unsolicited replies from Deluge can disrupt the data stream.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need to control a Deluge daemon from Python and can tolerate dormant maintenance. The package is stable, has no dependencies, and works reliably for basic RPC operations. Install it only if you have a Deluge 1.3.x, 2.0, or 2.1 instance to connect to and do not require event handling or support for newer Deluge versions."},"id":"deluge-client","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/deluge-client","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/deluge-client.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/deluge-client/"},"maintenance":{"status":"dormant"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2024-02-17","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"deluge-client","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"Simple Deluge Client"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":135493,"position":11428,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.10.2"}
