rubasace/fast-resume-torrent repository overview

⁠Fast Resume Torrent

⁠Description

Fast Resume Torrent offers a docker container with the famous rtorrent_fast_resume.pl⁠ script already installed. Such script adds fast resume data to torrent files, so they can be added to rTorrent without the need for an initial check. This container provides a watchdog that will process any .torrent file dropped in the /input directory, providing its fast-resume version on the /output one.

⁠Why

Why not. The original script is useful, but its installation is tricky because of the Convert-Bencode_XS library and the need to patch it in later versions of Perl. This container comes with it already installed and ready to use (Check the Dockerfile), so once built and published it will work forever.

⁠How to Run

docker run -d --name fast-resume \
        --restart=unless-stopped \
        -v /path/to/drop/original/torrent/files:/input:shared \
        -v /path/to/collect/fast/resume/torrent/files:/output:shared \
        -v /path/to/root/downloaded/files:/data:shared \
        -v /path/to/logs:/logs \
