Radarr / Sonarr¶
Radarr (Automated movie downloading) and Sonarr (Automated TV downloading) work esentially the same, so the documentation below applies to both.
Configuration¶
To make either Sonarr or Radarr work, you need to configure an Indexer and a Download Client.
Indexer: Jackett¶
The Download Client will be Jackett, you should make sure
that you have it installed and configured to follow these instructions.
Then, in Sonarr (resp. Radarr), go
to Settings then the Indexers tab, and click the Plus button.
Select the Custom button undernear Torznab and enter
Jackett for the name, for the URL enter http://jackett:9117/api/v2.0/indexers/all/results/torznab/
and for the API Key, enter the API key that Jackett displays
on its Dashboard.
Download client: Transmission¶
The Download Client will be Transmission, you should make sure
that you have it installed and configured to follow these instructions.
Then, in Sonarr (resp. Radarr), go
to the Download Client tab, toggle the Advanced Settings
toggle in the top right to Shown, then click the Plus button,
select Transmission. In the form that popped up, enter transmission for host,
9091 for port, and your transmission username and password in
their respective fields.
Indicate the following value for the Directory field:
- In Sonarr, enter
/data/complete/tv - In Radarr, enter
/data/complete/movies
Click Save to close the modal window. Back in the Advanced settings screen,
add a "Remote Path Mappings" with the following values:
* Host: transmission
* Local Path: /downloads
* (Radarr) Remote Path: /data/complete/movies
* (Sonarr) Remote Path: /data/complete/tv
Usage¶
We recommend that you make sure you point Radarr (resp. Sonarr)
to /movies (resp. /tv) when you add a movie (resp. TV show).
Now if you add some content, either a movie to Radarr or a TV series to Sonarr, they will automatically be searched and downloaded according to your settings.
Note: These configuration steps MUST be followed for both Sonarr and Radarr. If you use both of them, make sure to apply the above in both software.
