Download Path¶
By default, this app is configured to download files into /app/data/downloads. You can change this path to a
volume by editing /app/data/config/settings.json and changing download-dir.
Post Processing Script¶
There is a sample post processing script in /app/code/transmission/torrentDone.js . This script, at the end of a download,
automatically hard-link the downloaded files from /app/data/files/Downloading/ to /app/data/files/Downloaded/.
This allows potential post-processing by other apps of the file in Downloaded, without interfering with seeding from
the file in Downloading. Also, it seeds torrents up to a ratio of 2, then automatically remove them, and removes the
corresponding files from Downloading.
The script can be enabled by changing script-torrent-done-enabled in in custom config.
You can also write your own post processing scripts and set script-torrent-done-filename accordingly. See https://github.com/transmission/transmission/blob/main/docs/Scripts.md for more information.
Custom config¶
Custom configuration can be edited in /app/data/config/settings.json using the
File Manager. Be sure to restart the app after making changes.
See transmission docs for a full list of configurable options.
