Docker torrent downloader

This application allows you to download torrents from Yggtorrent and Nyaa.si using various APIs. You can run it with node.js or docker (recommended).

Features

• Search from YGGTorrents
• Search from Nyaa.si
• Add torrent files from YGGTorrents
• Add magnet links from Nyaa.si
• Download torrents from Transmission

Getting Started

The application requires a Transmission server and a Yggtorrent user account (if you want to download from Yggtorrent too). If you don't have an account, please create one.

The recommended way of running this application is by using Docker. A Docker image is available on Docker Hub and installation instructions are detailed below.

This application can also be run natively with Node.js, see the detailed instructions below.

Docker installation

Run with Docker CLI

Here is an example of a cli command to run this application:

docker run -d --name torrents \
  -p 3000:3000 \
  --restart on-failure \
  -e YGG_USERNAME='your_username' \
  -e YGG_PASSWORD='your_password' \
  -v ./torrents/:/app/torrents/ \
  mozkadocker/torrents:main

Run with Docker Compose

Here is an example of a docker-compose configuration:

version: '3.3'
services:
    torrents:
        container_name: torrents
        ports:
            - '3000:3000'
        restart: on-failure
        environment:
            - YGG_USERNAME=your_username
            - YGG_PASSWORD=your_password
        volumes:
            - './torrents/:/app/torrents/'
        image: 'mozkadocker/torrents:main'

    transmission:
      image: linuxserver/transmission
      container_name: transmission
      environment:
        - PUID=1000
        - PGID=1000
        - TZ=Europe/Paris
      volumes:
        - ./config:/config
        - ./downloads:/downloads
      ports:
        - 9091:9091
        - 51413:51413
        - 51413:51413/udp
      restart: unless-stopped

Usage

Regardless of which method you use to run your container, to interact with the application you'll need to use the endpoint api detailed a little further down in the documentation.

Tweak these environment variables to modify the config as needed:

• YGG_BASE_URL: The url of yggtorrent. Since they often change their domain name, this variable will undoubtedly be useful to you.

• FLARESOLVER_URL: The url of your FlareSolver instance. To avoid CloudFlare blocking.

• YGG_USERNAME: Your yggtorrent account username.

• YGG_PASSWORD: Your yggtorrent account password.

• TRANSMISSION_HOST: The address of your Transmission server WEB UI.
