rtorsh

Overview

rtorsh is a command line application for controlling remote rtorrent servers over XMLRPC. Currently I have implemented the basic functionality, and have plans to expand the functionality to (hopefully) achieve near feature parity with ruTorrent. The goal is to create an easily bash-scriptable application to help automate tasks that aren't easy to do with ruTorrent.

The help built into rtorsh through the -h and --help options will be your best guide. There are some examples in the examples directory.

Please file bug and/or feature requests to help guide development efforts!

Installation

pip install rtorsh  # Or pip install -r rtorsh for full support.

You will need to setup your own ~/.rtorsh.conf. There is an example template available in the "examples" folder of this repository.
