My setup as working with Drone Factory:
- Seedbox using autodl-irssi (downloads a lot of shows I don’t actually watch for ratio).
- script runs on download complete, if it matches a show I watch, it gets transferred to my home computer via uftp (with a Temp download folder while transferring, and a Destination folder where complete downloads get moved).
- Sonarr drone factory watches the Complete download folder
I’ve never had any issues with this setup. Files are always complete in the Complete folder.
uftpd has an option to run a script after moving completed files to the Destination folder, I’m just not familiar with how to use it. If the transfer was a folder I think it passes an array of full file paths to the script. uftpd is running on a linux box on my home network, with the Destination folder being a samba share from the Windows computer running Sonarr.
I saw in other posts that the DownloadedEpisodesScan command takes a path that has to be a folder containing one file to process… My setup does not create folders, all video files are saved in one ‘Complete’ folder.
Can I call the DownloadedEpisodesScan with a root folder? I saw in another post that calling DownloadedEpisodesScan without a path uses the DroneFactory path as a root and scans it… will that path setting be preserved (even if hidden) in v3?
I don’t have much time to invest in this, especially when DroneFactory still works and v3 is not anytime soon, but good to know what my options are when I have the time to play with it.
Thanks.
