Show torrents created outside of Storm (with Deluge 2)

[deardaniel]

I was using Storm with Deluge 1.4.3 (linuxserver/deluge:143-data-2) without issue. After upgrading to Deluge 2.0.5 (linuxserver/deluge at time of writing), Storm showed "No torrents". When I uploaded a new torrent from Storm, it appeared. When I uploaded a new torrent from Deluge's WebUI, it did not.

I noticed in Deluge that the Storm-uploaded torrent had an "owner" of storm but others were localclient. Is this a limitation of Deluge's v2 API? If so, should it be documented?

Or can Storm change how it create Deluge RPCs to retrieve all torrents?

Interesting. Do you see the same behaviour in reverse (does the Deluge WebUI see torrents created by Storm)? Are you using different RPC accounts for both?

Aha, maybe this was an error in my decision to make a separate Deluge user with Storm.

Looking at https://github.com/relvacode/storm/blob/master/docker-compose/auth and mirroring that single-user localclient setup locally seems to solve the problem. I had made a separate storm user but with Deluge 2, it seems like I should have Storm use the localclient user if I want to share data.

Okay thanks for the discovery. I've made a note about it in the README. If this becomes particularly problematic in future we can investigate if it's possible to see system-wide torrents. I don't think many people will be presenting the RPC directly and instead will be mostly using client-side auth anyway.
