Terminal Tools for NZBGet Automation

Quick Terminal Guide

For Tweaknews users working with remote systems or headless setups, command-line control provides a flexible alternative to the Web interface.


Main Commands

  • nzbget -D – Start the daemon

  • nzbget -Q – Quit

  • nzbget -s – Show current status

  • nzbget -L – List jobs in progress

  • nzbget -E – Clear past errors

  • nzbget -R all – Reload all config options

  • nzbget -o OutputMode=log – Set alternate output formatting

Example with Override

nzbget -o ConfigTemplate=testing.conf -D

This starts NZBGet using a test configuration, useful for staging or troubleshooting.


Scheduling Suggestions

Combine with crontab or systemd timers to create automated health checks or service restarts. CLI usage makes Tweaknews automation more adaptable to different workflows.
