Goals

Bump technology used: More modern frameworks and technologies for a better modularization, performance and correctness.
Accelerate development: With the new set of technologies and components available in this project, new features are easier to implement.
Javascript best practices: Better source modularization, more documentation, source linting and many other improvements.
More reliable & accurate behaviour: Guarantee always that the interface reacts as expected and doesn’t face UI race conditions.
Tested: A set of tests to guarantee the everything works as expected.
Internationalization: to be able to translate the interface easialy to other languages.

Roadmap

First stage: achieve 100% feature parity with the original web interface.
Second stage: present this project to the main Transmission development team to be evaluated
Third stage: merge this project to the Transmission repository
Fourth stage: improve the user interface with new features, more tests, add new languages, etc.

Technology

Requirements

Node 4.5
Yarn 0.19

Installation

If you want to test this project without dealing with all the Node.js stuff, you can download the lastest release from here:

https://github.com/fcsonline/react-transmission/releases

Decompress it with:

unzip react-transmission-X.X.X.zip

Then, set this environment variable in your .bashrc

export TRANSMISSION_WEB_HOME=<path to react-transmission>

And start your Transmission instance. If everything gone well, your
react-transmission instance should be like the previous one but you can
differenciate because the background is a bit light yellow.

Happy testing!
