Share Your Scripts

Post by basecase »

I noticed this forum doesn't have a share your scripts thread. It can be helpful to see what kind of things your guys do after your download completes to keep your content organized.
I will go first, I created a reseeder that allows you to migrate from one linux install to another and automatically change the current location of content after you move it. It has made my life so much easier when I start reorganizing and want to keep seeding with out manually changing the location. I personally think every client should have an option like this built in since numerous people always ask, "How do reseed everything after I _______?" every client has a bunch of posts in the forums asking this very question so I decided to help the community.
you can get updates if you web search qbittorrent-reseeder. here are the two scripts.

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh

#---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------#
#		This script is designed to make seeding already downloaded content easier. It does this by saving           		#
#	torrent to the new download directory and creating a magnetLINKqbittorrent shell script that contains everything	   	#
#	needed to easily reseed content, including the .torrent and a mechanism to handle  authentication   					#
#	and remote sessions.																									#
#				Feel free to customise this script as needed. Any suggestions or improvements can be        				#
#				directed to the Github project   qBittorrent-RESEEDER on GITHUB.COM			   								#

It work with a few limitation such as non local instances and authintication. update on the github but it works locally


Lets see what you guys got for post install programs.
