Just reporting that I've been using this for over a month and it's been working flawlessly 👌 |
- better error handling - support for comma-separated list of ports (use only first one) - style corrections - improved messages

nit just have this as --quiet directly without a variable, to reduce the "API surface" of the script. One can always ask if they need different wget options, and we can add it as a flag.

I have moved --quiet flag out of WGET_OPTS but I am keeping the variable to store there, if needed, the API credentials and some extra flags they require. Is this ok?

You can use this script to set a VPN forwarded port as the current listening port for Transmission.The script uses only shell scripting and can run out of the box within the current
gluetundocker image, it only relies on the commandwget, which is already included by default in the image.
