Quickstart¶

In this examples we’ll use console commands.

torrt cooperates with actual torrent clients (through RPC), so we need to tell it how to connect to them.

Let’s configure Transmission (https://www.transmissionbt.com/) connection (considering Transmission web interface is on 192.168.1.5):
> torrt configure_rpc transmission host=192.168.1.5 user=idle password=pSW0rt
To get known RPCs aliases use list_rpc command.

Second step is to tell torrt how to authorize into private torrent trackers.

Let’s configure authorization for http://rutracker.org tracker:
> torrt configure_tracker rutracker.org username=idle password=pSW0rt
To get known tracker aliases use list_trackers command.

Now let’s subscribe to torrent updates, say from http://rutracker.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4430338:
```
> torrt add_torrent http://rutracker.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4430338
```

To get torrents registered for updates use list_torrents command.

Configure notifications about torrent updates.

Let’s configure notifications through email:

> torrt configure_notifier email host=smtp.server.com port=25 use_tls=True email=your@email.com user=idle password=pSW0rt

Updates checks for torrents registered within torrt can be done with walk command:
```
> torrt walk
```
Use set_walk_interval command to set walk interval in hours:
```
> torrt set_walk_interval 24
```

Note

More information on commands supported by torrt console application is available through –help command line switch:

> torrt --help
> torrt configure_rpc --help
> torrt add_torrent --help
