Autoremove Torrents is an open-source Python project that allows the automatic removal of torrents from various torrent clients based on configurable criteria. It can help manage disk space by deleting torrents when they are finished seeding. Here's the GitHub page of the project.

Features

• Remove torrents automatically based on ratio, seeding time, inactivity and more
• Monitor disk space and remove torrents if space runs low
• Remove oldest, biggest, smallest torrents first
• Support for all major torrent clients
• Dry run mode to test without removing
• Schedule via crontab for hands-off automation

Supported Clients

Autoremove Torrents works with the following torrent clients:

• qBittorrent

• Transmission

• Deluge

pipbash install<(wget autoremove-torrents-qO- https://scripts.ultra.cc/main-v2/AutoRemove-Torrents/main.sh)

git clone https://github.com/jerrymakesjelly/autoremove-torrents.git
cd autoremove-torrents
python setup.py install --user

Configuration

Autoremove Torrents uses a YAML configuration file to define the torrent clients and removal rules. By default, Autoremove Torrents will look for a configuration file in the shell's current working directory. But, you can store the configuration file somewhere else and point to it while using Autoremove Torrents. See the below usage instructions for more information.

Client Configuration

First,The youscript will create a bare minimum configuration file located at ~/.config/autoremove-torrents/config.yml. You will need to specifyedit connectionthe detailsconfiguration forfile eachwith torrentyour client:login credentials and removal task/strategies.

• Open the configuration file with the editor by executing the following command.

qbittorrent:nano client: qbittorrent
  host: https:~//username.hostname.usbx.me/qbittorrent
  username: <your-username>
  password: <your-password>

deluge:
  client: deluge
  host: IP:Daemon port
  username: <your-username>
  password: <your-password>.config/autoremove-torrents/config.yml

• The client parameter specifies the client name, while host contains the URL or IP address + port.
• TheFind username and password areand replace with the login credentials forof your torrent client.
  • Login credentials can be found on the webApps UItab orof daemon.the UCP.
• Make any other changes specific to your setup, such as removal task/strategies. See examples here.
• Exit the editor with ctrl+x and y, press ENTER to confirm.
• You can test your configuration with a preview dry-run. To do so, execute the following command.
  • Make sure to replace username with your specific Ultra service username.

autoremove-torrents --conf=/home/username/.config/autoremove-torrents/config.yml --view

Removal Strategies

Next, define removal strategies under each client. For example:

strategies:

  delete_seeds:
    remove: ratio > 2

  clear_space:
    free_space:  
      min: 10
      path: /downloads
      action: remove-big-seeds

• You can customize removal rules based on ratio, seed time, activity, disk space and more. See the full documentation for details on all available options.

• Strategies will only apply to the client they are defined under. You can create multiple strategies per client.

Usage

• Specify a custom config path:

autoremove-torrents --conf=/path/to/config.yml

• Single Task:

autoremove-torrents --conf=/path/to/config.yml --task transmission

• Dry run:

autoremove-torrents --view --conf=/path/to/config.yml --task transmission

Dry run allows you to see what would be deleted without actually removing anything.

Automation

• Open Crontab using crontab -e.
• Select 1 for the nano editor.
• You can setup a cron job or scheduled task to run autoremove-torrents automatically. For example:

# Run at 2AM every day
0 2 * * * /path/to/autoremove-torrents --conf=/path/to/config.yml

• Save the crontab file using ctrl + o & exit using ctrl + x.
• A simple and quick resource for cron schedule expressions: Crontab Guru

Uninstallation

• IfConnect installedto your Ultra.cc service via pip:SSH
• Execute the following command:

pipbash uninstall<(wget autoremove-torrents-qO- https://scripts.ultra.cc/main-v2/AutoRemove-Torrents/main.sh)

• Also, if there is a config directory left atType ~/.config2 orand press ~/.appsENTER runto :proceed with the uninstallation.

rm -rf ~/.config/autoremove-torrents && rm -rf ~/.apps/autoremove-torrents

• For manual installs, delete the autoremove-torrents folder and any installed files/packages.
