SABnzbd - Binary Newsgroup Reader
-
SABnzbd is a binary newsgroup reader. See https://sabnzbd.org/. Seems to be actively developed:
It is somewhat similar in functionality to NZBGet which was requested earlier. I was able to get this to run as an app on my cloudron and the repo for that package is here. It will need some polish and review though if it is to be used more generally. I can help with that if there is broader interest.

I had a question regarding the implementation of this app. I have currently put this behind the proxyAuth add-on but that prevents the app's APIs from being called by external applications, even if they use the API key. An alternative would be to use the app's inbuilt authentication which does not support LDAP and is limited to a single username/password combination. I have seen a similar issue with the transmission app as well, where the transmission's rpc api cannot be called by, say, the couchpotato app, due to the app being behind proxyApp.
What is the recommendation in such cases? Do we want to retain proxyAuth for a more secure and better integrated auth setup, or let users configure security using the in-app options available and allow them to retain access to the app's APIs.
Currently, I have put this behind proxyAuth, going by what was implemented for transmission, but more feedback might help make a better choice.

@esawtooth Ah sorry, I thought this still needed some fixing with regards to proxyAuth. You mentioned that the app's API cannot be called from external apps. You can now put that as "!/api/path" - https://docs.cloudron.io/custom-apps/addons/#proxyauth
