gui-server-password¶
Type: String
Example: gui-server-password = abcdefg

rt-address¶
Type: String
Default: Whatever is found in ~/.rtorrent.rc
Example: rt-address = 127.0.0.1:5000
Description: If you use the 'rtorrent' action (upload-method), then you must initialize this to your rtorrent's SCGI address. It can be ip:port (eg. 127.0.0.1:5000) or /path/to/socket.
update-check¶
Type: string
Default: ask
Example: update-check = auto
Description: autodl-irssi can auto update itself. Valid values are ask, auto, and disabled. ask will print a message when there's a new version. auto will automatically update it when there's a new version. disabled won't do a thing when there's a new update.
output-level¶
Type: Integer greater than or equal to 0.
Default: 3
Description: Set the verbosity of autodl.
debug¶
Type: Boolean
Default: false
Description: Enable lower level debug messages at set output-level.
advanced-output-sites¶
Type: Comma separated list
Example: advanced-output-sites = tracker1, tracker2, tracker3
Description: Output captured variables from announces. It's compared against the tracker type found in ~/.irssi/scripts/AutodlIrssi/trackers/.tracker as used by the **matched-sites* filter option. Open one of the files and locate the type="XYZ" line. Use the value inside the quotes, eg. XYZ. Settingadvanced-output-sites = allwill enable advanced output for all trackers.
use-regex¶
Type: Boolean
Default: false
Description: Changes match/except-releases filter options to use regex instead of wildcard syntax globally. This can also be set per filter.
max-saved-releases¶
Type: Integer greater than or equal to 0.
Default: 1000
Example: max-saved-releases = 200
Description: autodl-irssi will remember the last max-saved-releases releases you have downloaded so it won't re-download the same file again. Only useful if save-download-history is enabled.
save-download-history¶
Type: Boolean
Default: true
Example: save-download-history = true
Description: Set it to false to disable writing the last N (= max-saved-releases) downloaded releases to ~/.autodl/DownloadHistory.txt.
download-duplicates¶
Type: Boolean
Default: false
Example: download-duplicates = true
Description: By default, it's false so no duplicate releases are downloaded. Set it to true if you want to download the same release if it's re-announced or announced by multiple trackers.
unique-torrent-names¶
Type: Boolean
Default: false
Example: unique-torrent-names = true
Description: If true, all saved torrent filenames are unique (the site name is prepended to the filename). Set it to false to use the torrent release name as the filename.
download-retry-time-seconds¶
Type: Integer
Default: 300
Example: download-retry-time-seconds = 120
Description: If a download fails, autodl-irssi will try to re-download it every 3 seconds for download-retry-time-seconds seconds. It will give up after download-retry-time-seconds and report an error.
path-utorrent¶
Type: String
Default: nothing
Example: path-utorrent = /cygdrive/c/Program Files (x86)/uTorrent/uTorrent.exe
Description: Set it to the path of uTorrent if you're using an upload-type equal to dyndir.
upload-type¶
Type: String
Default: test
Description: Set the action to take when an announce is matched. See actions for related settings.
Wake on LAN¶
It's possible to wake up the computer before uploading the torrent (uTorrent webui or FTP upload). You may need to make sure your BIOS and network card have WOL enabled.
wol-mac-address = 00:11:22:33:44:55
wol-ip-address = 12.34.56.78 (or a DNS name, eg. www.blah.com)
wol-port = 9 (defaults to 9 if you leave it blank)
wol-mac-address is the MAC (or hardware) address of the computer's network card. Use ifconfig /all (windows) or ifconfig -a (Linux) to find out your network card's MAC address.
If you have a router, then set wol-ip-address to your router's public IP address, and make sure the router forwards UDP packets to port wol-port (default 9) to your router's internal broadcast address (usually 192.168.0.255).
