Hi,
I'm trying to configure Upload Assistant so that the .torrent file it creates is automatically loaded into my rTorrent client, but I haven't been able to make it work and I'm probably misunderstanding some of the configuration fields.
My setup is the following: everything runs on a dedicated Seedhost server (not shared). On the host system I have rTorrent and ruTorrent installed normally, while Upload Assistant is running inside Docker.
The goal is simply that when Upload Assistant creates a torrent, it should send it to rTorrent so that it starts seeding automatically.
In the configuration page under Torrent Clients → rTorrent, I tried to configure the fields but I'm not sure I'm interpreting them correctly.
For the Rtorrent Url, I configured it similarly to how I do with *arr applications, pointing it to the ruTorrent HTTP RPC endpoint:
https://my-domain.com/rutorrent/plugins/httprpc/action.php
http://ip-address/rutorrent/plugins/httprpc/action.php
https://ip-address:443/rutorrent/plugins/httprpc/action.php
http://localhost/rutorrent/plugins/httprpc/action.php
http://127.0.0.1/rutorrent/plugins/httprpc/action.php
http://user:pass@my-domain.com/rutorrent/plugins/httprpc/action.php
https://user:pass@my-domain.com:443/rutorrent/plugins/httprpc/action.php
This approach works with other applications, so I assumed it would also be correct here.
Where I get confused is mainly with the other parameters.
For Torrent Storage Dir, I'm not sure what Upload Assistant expects. I couldn't understand from the documentation whether this should point to the directory where .torrent files are stored, the download directory, or the .session directory used by rTorrent. I tried both my torrent directory and the rTorrent session directory but neither seemed to work.
Another thing I'm unsure about is the Local Path / Remote Path configuration.
Since Upload Assistant runs inside Docker, I mounted my torrent data directory inside the container with this mapping in docker-compose:
/home//data/torrents/:/data/torrents/:rw
So inside the container Upload Assistant sees the files under /data/torrents, while on the host system the real path is /home/seedbox/data/torrents.
Because of this I configured:
Local Path: /data/torrents
Remote Path: /home//data/torrents
I am also not using linking, so I set Linking to None (Original Path) because I want the files to remain exactly where they are without hardlinks or symlinks.
Upload Assistant runs correctly and creates the torrent file, but it never gets loaded into rTorrent.
Thanks!
