Thanks to this community popping up on my hot feed, I’ve spent my entire day setting up sonarr/radarr on my 423+ NAS within docker. I got most of it figured out on my own but I’m stumped on how sonarr/radarr takes the files from my torrent client downloads folder and moves them to my media folder for plex/jellyfin to view.
I’ve followed this guide for how my folder structure is setup: https://wiki.servarr.com/docker-guide
Could someone point me in the direction of what I need to do so that when a file is finished downloading it automatically moves to my media folder?
I have a setup with transmission working, I can link you my config, but it’s in Nix.
I basically made Sonarr, Radarr, etc. all part of a group called
arr, and made all the folders with media have permissions that allow the group to read and write to them, and it works so far. I think.I’m not sure you even need to go that far. I’ll have to look up exactly how I have it configured because it’s been a bit, but sonarr and radarr are both configured to copy from the torrent folder into a separate media directory where they and Jellyfin, as part of the “media” group, have (almost) full permissions to manage the files as they like. Then I go in and occasionally prune the torrents folder once every few weeks if storage becomes an issue.
