class flexget.db_schema.VersionedBaseMeta(metaname, bases, dict_)

Bases: DeclarativeMeta

Metaclass for objects returned by versioned_base factory

register_table(table: str | Table) → None

This can be used if a plugin is declaring non-declarative sqlalchemy tables.

    The manager does not always require a lock on startup, if one is requested, this event will run when it has been acquired successfully

  • manager.upgrade

    If any plugins have declared a newer schema version than exists in the database, this event will be fired to allow plugins to upgrade their tables

options Module

class flexget.options.ArgumentParser(**kwargs)

Bases: ArgumentParser

Mimics the default argparse.ArgumentParser class, with a few distinctions, mostly to ease subparser usage:

  • If add_subparsers is called with the nested_namespaces kwarg, all subcommand options will be stored in a nested namespace based on the command name for the subparser

  • Adds the add_subparser method. After add_subparsers has been called, the add_subparser method can be used instead of the add_parser method of the object returned by the add_subparsers call.

  • add_subparser takes takes the parent_defaults argument, which will set/change the defaults for the parent parser when that subparser is selected.

  • The get_subparser method will get the ArgumentParser instance for an existing subparser on this parser

  • For any arguments defined both in this parser and one of its subparsers, the selected subparser default will override the main one.

  • Adds the set_post_defaults method. This works like the normal argparse set_defaults method, but all actions and subparsers will be run before any of these defaults are set.

  • Command shortening: If the command for a subparser is abbreviated unambiguously, it will still be accepted.

  • The add_argument nargs keyword argument supports a range of arguments, e.g. `”2-4”

  • If the raise_errors keyword argument to parse_args is True, a ParserError will be raised instead of sys.exit

  • If the file argument is given to parse_args, output will be printed there instead of sys.stdout or stderr

add_argument(dest, ..., name=value, ...)
add_argument(option_string, option_string, ..., name=value, ...) → None
add_subparser(name: str, **kwargs)

Adds a parser for a new subcommand and returns it.

Parameters:

  • name – Name of the subcommand

  • parent_defaults – Default argument values which should be supplied to the parent parser if this subparser is selected.

add_subparsers(**kwargs)
Parameters:

nested_namespaces – If True, options from subparsers will appear in nested namespace under the subparser name.

do_help = True
error(message: string)

Prints a usage message incorporating the message to stderr and exits.

If you override this in a subclass, it should not return – it should either exit or raise an exception.

get_subparser(name: str, default=<object object>)
parse_args(args: List[str] | None = None, namespace: Namespace | None = None, raise_errors: bool = False, file: TextIO | None = None)
Parameters:

parse_known_args(args: List[str] | None = None, namespace: Namespace | None = None, do_help: bool | None = None)
set_post_defaults(**kwargs)

Like set_defaults method, but these defaults will be defined after parsing instead of before.

An iterator over a subset of entries to emulate old task.accepted/rejected/failed/entries properties.

reverse()
sort(*args, **kwargs)
class flexget.task.Task(manager, name, config=None, options=None, output=None, session_id=None, priority=None, suppress_warnings=None)

Bases: object

Represents one task in the configuration.

Fires events:

  • task.execute.before_plugin

    Before a plugin is about to be executed. Note that since this will also include all builtin plugins the amount of calls can be quite high

    parameters: task, keyword

  • task.execute.after_plugin

    After a plugin has been executed.

    parameters: task, keyword

  • task.execute.started

    Before a task starts execution

  • task.execute.completed

    After task execution has been completed

    parameters: task

RERUN_DEFAULT = 5
RERUN_MAX = 100
abort(reason='Unknown', silent=False, traceback: str | None = None)

Abort this task execution, no more plugins will be executed except the abort handling ones.

property accepted

Deprecated since version Use: API v3

property all_entries

Deprecated since version Use: API v3

check_config_hash()

Checks the task’s config hash and updates the hash if necessary.

config_changed()

Sets config_modified flag to True for the remainder of this run. Used when the db changes, and all entries need to be reprocessed.

copy()
disable_phase(phase)

Disable phase from execution.

Parameters:

phase (string) – Name of phase

Raises:

ValueError – phase could not be found.

disable_plugin(plugin)

Disable plugin from execution.

Parameters:

plugin (string) – Name of plugin

Raises:

ValueError – plugin could not be found.

property entries

Deprecated since version Use: API v3

execute()

Executes the the task.

If enabled is False task is not executed. Certain options affect how execution is handled.

  • options.disable_phases is a list of phases that are not enabled for this execution.

  • options.inject is a list of Entry instances used instead of running input phase.

property failed

Deprecated since version Use: API v3

find_entry(category='entries', **values)

Find and return Entry with given attributes from task or None

Parameters:

  • category (string) – entries, accepted, rejected or failed. Defaults to entries.

  • values – Key values of entries to be searched

Returns:

Entry or None

property is_rerun
lock_reruns()

Prevent modification of max_reruns property

property max_reruns

How many times task can be rerunned before stopping

merge_config(new_config)
plugins(phase=None)

Get currently enabled plugins.

Parameters:

phase (string) – Optional, limits to plugins currently configured on given phase, sorted in phase order.

Returns:

An iterator over configured flexget.plugin.PluginInfo instances enabled on this task.

property rejected

Deprecated since version Use: API v3

render(template)

Renders a template string based on fields in the entry.

Parameters:

template – A template string or FlexGetTemplate that uses jinja2 or python string replacement format.

Returns:

The result of the rendering.

Return type:

string

Raises:

RenderError – If there is a problem.

rerun(plugin=None, reason=None)

Immediately re-run the task after execute has completed, task can be re-run up to max_reruns times.

Parameters:

  • plugin (str) – Plugin name

  • reason (str) – Why the rerun is done

property rerun_count
property reruns_locked
property undecided

Deprecated since version Use: API v3

Note

We did not migrate to v3

If I remember correctly the idea was to make v3 signature on_task_xxx(task, config, entries)

Param entries would be EntryContainer, which has convenience iterator methods:

  • entries.accepted

  • entries.failed

  • etc, which you see here

unlock_reruns()

Allow modification of max_reruns property

static validate_config(config)
exception flexget.task.TaskAbort(reason: str, silent: bool = False)

Bases: Exception

class flexget.task.TaskConfigHash(**kwargs)

Bases: VersionedBase

Stores the config hash for tasks so that we can tell if the config has changed since last run.

hash
id
task
flexget.task.register_config_key()
flexget.task.use_task_logging(func)

task_queue Module

class flexget.task_queue.TaskQueue

Bases: object

Task processing thread.

Only executes one task at a time, if more are requested they are queued up and run in turn.

is_alive() → bool
put(task: Task)

Adds a task to be executed to the queue.

run() → None
shutdown(finish_queue: bool = True) → None

Request shutdown.

Parameters:

finish_queue (bool) – Should all tasks be finished before ending thread.

start() → None
wait() → None

Waits for the thread to exit.

Allows abortion of task queue with ctrl-c

webserver Module

class flexget.webserver.User(**kwargs)

Bases: Base, UserMixin

User class available for flask apps to handle authentication using flask_login

get_id()
id
name
password
token
exception flexget.webserver.WeakPassword(value, logger=<loguru.logger handlers=[(id=0, level=10, sink=<stderr>)]>, **kwargs)

Bases: Exception

class flexget.webserver.WebSecret(**kwargs)

Bases: Base

Store flask secret in the database

id
value
class flexget.webserver.WebServer(bind='0.0.0.0', port=5050, ssl_certificate=None, ssl_private_key=None, base_url='')

Bases: Thread

run()

Method representing the thread’s activity.

You may override this method in a subclass. The standard run() method invokes the callable object passed to the object’s constructor as the target argument, if any, with sequential and keyword arguments taken from the args and kwargs arguments, respectively.

start()

Start the thread’s activity.

It must be called at most once per thread object. It arranges for the object’s run() method to be invoked in a separate thread of control.

This method will raise a RuntimeError if called more than once on the same thread object.

stop()
triggers_lock = <unlocked _thread.lock object>
flexget.webserver.generate_key()

Generate key for use to authentication

flexget.webserver.get_random_string(length=12, allowed_chars='abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789')

Returns a securely generated random string.

The default length of 12 with the a-z, A-Z, 0-9 character set returns a 71-bit value. log_2((26+26+10)^12) =~ 71 bits.

Taken from the django.utils.crypto module.

flexget.webserver.register_app(path, application, name)
flexget.webserver.register_home(route)

Registers UI home page

flexget.webserver.setup_server(config)

Sets up and starts/restarts the web service.

flexget.webserver.start_page()

Redirect user to registered UI home
