? Bobarr

The all-in-one alternative for Sonarr, Radarr, Jackett... with a VPN and running in docker

Bobarr is a movies and tv shows collection manager for BitTorrent users. It uses themoviedb.org to search movies and tv shows to add to your library. Then it searches into your favorites torrent trackers the best match and downloads it for you through a VPN.

This is a beta release!

Why ?

One of the main idea for bobarr is to be simple to setup, simple to use and having everything at the same place. You don't have to choose a torrent client, to setup a VPN, to setup radarr, sonarr, then jackett and connect them all together.

It's also built from scratch and it will try to solve long term problem like download multiple qualities and keep them or managing tv shows and movies at the same place. You can follow the roadmap to check what next features are implemented.

And to have something with a better UI, less configuration and faster

Setup

Requirement

• docker installed with docker-compose.

Installation

Run the installation script and follow the instructions:

• curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/iam4x/bobarr/master/scripts/install.sh | bash

Configuration

• Update your config in .env

Link your existing library if any (from Sonarr or Raddar)

• Open docker-compose.yml and look for - ./library:/usr/library
• Update ./library to the folder where your (/movies & /tvshows) are

As example, having:

/mnt/storage/
|- movies/
|- tvshows/

The line should be: - /mnt/storage:/usr/library

How to start

There are two way to start bobarr stack, first without VPN:

• $ ./bobarr.sh start
• Go to http://localhost:9117, add your preferred torrent websites and copy the API Key in top right corner
• Go to http://localhost:3000/settings and update the jackett API key

If you want to enforce all torrent traffic through a VPN:

OpenVPN

• Copy your open vpn config file (.ovpn) into the folder packages/vpn name it vpn.conf
• $ ./bobarr.sh start:vpn

WireGuard

• Copy your wireguard config file (wg0.conf) into the folder packages/vpn
• $ ./bobarr.sh start:wireguard

Configuration

Torrent account

• Go to http://localhost:9117
• Add indexer and follow the steps
• Also set FlareSolverr url to http://flaresolverr:8191 in jackett configuration

Bobarr configuration

• Go to http://localhost:3000/settings
• Set your region and language according to your torrent tracker
• Create and order your preferred tags found in torrent file (ex: vost, multi, english...)
• Order your preferred qualities to download

Usage

• After configuration, go to http://localhost:3000/search and just start searching!
• The files will be downloaded into library/downloads
• The files will be moved/copied/simlinked (you can set this in settings) and organized into library/tvshows or library/movies

The only requirement is to have a folder tvshows and a folder movies then bobarr can catch up and download to your user defined library folder.

If your movies or tvshow folder have a different name, you can edit .env file with your folder names:

LIBRARY_MOVIES_FOLDER_NAME=movies
LIBRARY_TV_SHOWS_FOLDER_NAME=tvshows

You can now head to http://localhost:3000 and hit that "Scan library folder" button.

How to stop

You can stop the whole bobarr stack with:

• $ ./bobarr.sh stop

How to update

Check the CHANGELOG and update your .env if needed with new variables added.

• $ ./bobarr.sh update
• $ ./bobarr.sh start
