A simple script for adding torrents from rss feeds. Since there's an item limit to RSS feeds, the script creates a feed for each show. It's slower, but it mitigates the limitation by giving more relevant results. This can help if you're trying to start downloading something a few weeks into a season.
Pyget uses a json file for easy and flexible configuration. Running the script for the first time will create ~/.config/pyget.json.
{
"client": ...
"feeds": [
{
"url": feed url,
"path": path to create show/season folder in,
"age": Max age of items to use from feed (in days),
"shows": {
"Show name": Season (creates a subdirectory within the show folder),
}
},
{
Same as above for another feed url
}
]
}
I tried to use as few python dependencies as possible and instead used subprocess for communicating with the torrent client. All you should need is the system package transmission-cli, which is included with transmission on most linux distros.
You can install all relevant files with the makefile using make install. It's not enabled by default, and I recommend running the script manually to make sure your configuration is correct. Once you've verified that it's working, you can use systemctl --user daemon-reload && systemctl --user enable --now pyget.timer to enable the timer.
