As a workaround, it provides a single jar file, command java -jar JDownloader.jar successfully launches it on nixos.

@MicrosoftTakeover thank you very much !

but i will stay with remote web management, that tool is asking for: 718,2 MB will be downloaded in total. 2,3 GB more disk space will be used. that's little bit too much ;)

Thank you for your contributions.

This has been automatically marked as stale because it has had no activity for 180 days.

If this is still important to you, we ask that you leave a comment below. Your comment can be as simple as "still important to me". This lets people see that at least one person still cares about this. Someone will have to do this at most twice a year if there is no other activity.

Here are suggestions that might help resolve this more quickly:

1. Search for maintainers and people that previously touched the related code and @ mention them in a comment.
2. Ask on the NixOS Discourse.
3. Ask on the #nixos channel on irc.freenode.net.

command java -jar JDownloader.jar successfully launches it on nixos.

now jdownloader has access to your clipboard, screen, files, ... it's a security risk, as jdownloader is closed source, while being advertised as "open source"

better security: docker + jdownloader + vnc webinterface = https://hub.docker.com/r/jlesage/jdownloader-2/

docker pull jlesage/jdownloader-2

docker run -d --name=jdownloader-2 -p 5800:5800 -v /docker/appdata/jdownloader-2:/config:rw -v $HOME/Downloads/jd:/output:rw jlesage/jdownloader-2

xdg-open http://localhost:5800/

shell: docker exec -it jdownloader-2 sh

i use $HOME/Downloads/jd so that jdownloader cannot see files in my $HOME/Downloads

vnc webinterface

or use the official webinterface at my.jdownloader.org you will need the my jdownloader browser extension to solve captchas

But it is open source? The source is on SVN and it's licensed as GPL. https://beta.jdownloader.org/developmentquicktutorial

[milahu]

But it is open source?

no. the core is closed source to build from source, you need JDClosed.jar (or similar)

Hi there, is this setup working in the latest NixOS release? I want to use jdownloader too but I'm new to NixOS coming from Arch/Fedora distros.

[milahu]

is this setup working in the latest NixOS release?

yeah, why not

you just need to enable docker and nixos-rebuild switch

[LDprg]

Porting the arch pkgbuild to a nix shouldn't be so complicated. So maybe someone would like to do this and make a PR.
