Events are actions aMule can take upon when certain things happen. This actions can be configured on the Events tab of the Preferences notebook.

There are two kinds of Events supported at the moment:

  • Download completed
  • New chat session

When one of these events is triggered, you can configure aMule to execute a

  • core command
  • GUI command

Download completed

When a Download completed event is triggered, four variables can be accessed:

  •  %NAME - the name of the downloaded file with full path
  •  %FILE - the name of the downloaded file without path
  •  %HASH - the ed2k hash of the downloaded file
  •  %SIZE - the size in bytes of the downloaded file

New chat session

When a New chat session event is triggered, one variable can be accessed:

  •  %Sender - username of the person initiating the chat

Syntax

To call an external script, enter the script name in the core command field, followed by the optional variables. For example:

MyScript.sh %NAME %FILE %HASH %SIZE

Note: If the filename contains spaces, the variable names should be enclosed in quotes like this:

MyScript.sh "%NAME" "%FILE" %HASH %SIZE

You need to make sure your script in your PATH or that you supply the pathname.

Examples

Here is a bash script which will send you an email every time a download is completed. To use it, enter your email address where indicated and save it to a location in your PATH. Then add this line:

doneDL.sh "%NAME" "%FILE" %HASH %SIZE

to the Core command field of the Download completed section of the Events page. It will now be invoked everytime aMule finishes a download.

 #!/bin/bash
 #
 # doneDL.sh - sends an email upon completion of an aMule download
 # Used in conjuction with aMule's Event feature
 #
 # Call like this: doneDL.sh "%NAME" "%FILE" %HASH %SIZE
 #
 # Enter your email address here:
 eMail=
 #
 NameShort=$1
 NameLong=$2
 Hash=$3
 Size=$4
