# Unraid Installation
|
|
|
|
## Docker Installation (Recommended)
|
|
|
|
The easiest way to run qbit_manage on Unraid is using the Docker container from Docker Hub.
|
|
|
|
### Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
Install [Community Applications](https://forums.unraid.net/topic/38582-plug-in-community-applications/) plugin if you haven't already.
|
|
|
|
### Installation Steps
|
|
|
|
1. **Install the Container**
|
|
- Go to the **Apps** tab in Unraid
|
|
- Search for "qbit_manage" in the search box
|
|
- Select the qbit_manage container and click **Install**
|
|
|
|
2. **Configure Path Mapping**
|
|
|
|
> [!IMPORTANT]
|
|
> qbit_manage must have the same path mappings as your qBittorrent container to properly access your torrents.
|
|
|
|
**Example:** If qBittorrent is mapped as `/mnt/user/data/:/data`, then qbit_manage must also be mapped the same way.
|
|
|
|
- Set the `Root_Dir` variable to match your qBittorrent download path
|
|
- Ensure both containers can see torrents at the same paths
|
|
|
|
3. **Configure Environment Variables**
|
|
- Set `QBT_WEB_SERVER=true` to enable the Web UI (recommended)
|
|
- Configure other QBT environment options as needed
|
|
|
|
4. **Apply and Download**
|
|
- Click **Apply** to download and create the container
|
|
- The container may auto-start - stop it if needed
|
|
|
|
5. **Create Configuration File**
|
|
- Navigate to `/mnt/user/appdata/qbit_manage/` on your Unraid server
|
|
- Download the [sample config file](https://github.com/StuffAnThings/qbit_manage/blob/master/config/config.yml.sample)
|
|
- Rename it to `config.yml` (remove the `.sample` extension)
|
|
- Edit the file according to the [Config Setup guide](Config-Setup)
|
|
|
|
> [!TIP]
|
|
> Make sure the `root_dir` in your config matches how qBittorrent sees your torrents (e.g., `/data/torrents`)
|
|
|
|
6. **Start the Container**
|
|
- Start the qbit_manage container from the Docker tab
|
|
- Check logs at `/mnt/user/appdata/qbit_manage/logs/`
|
|
|
|
### Web UI Access
|
|
|
|
If you enabled the web server, access the Web UI at:
|
|
```
|
|
http://[UNRAID-IP]:8080
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Alternative: User Scripts Installation
|
|
|
|
> [!WARNING]
|
|
> This method is more complex and not recommended for most users. Use the Docker method above instead.

|
|
|
|
### Requirements
|
|
- [Nerd Pack](https://forums.unraid.net/topic/35866-unraid-6-nerdpack-cli-tools-iftop-iotop-screen-kbd-etc/) plugin
|
|
- Python packages: `python-pip`, `python3`, `python-setuptools`
|
|
|
|
### Installation
|
|
1. Install required Python packages via Nerd Pack
|
|
2. Download qbit_manage source to your server (e.g., `/mnt/user/data/scripts/qbit/`)
|
|
3. Create a User Script to install requirements:
|
|
```bash
|
|
#!/bin/bash
|
|
echo "Installing required packages"
|
|
python3 -m pip install /mnt/user/data/scripts/qbit/
|
|
echo "Required packages installed"
|
|
```
|
|
4. Set the script to run "At First Array Start Only"
|
|
5. Create another User Script to run qbit_manage:
|
|
```bash
|
|
#!/bin/bash
|
|
echo "Running qBitTorrent Management"
|
|
python3 /mnt/user/data/scripts/qbit/qbit_manage.py \
|
|
--config-file /mnt/user/data/scripts/qbit/config.yml \
|
|
--log-file /mnt/user/data/scripts/qbit/activity.log \
|
|
--run
|
|
echo "qBitTorrent Management Completed"
|
|
```
|
|
6. Set a cron schedule (e.g., `*/30 * * * *` for every 30 minutes)
|
|
|
|
> [!TIP]
|
|
> Use `--dry-run` flag first to test your configuration before running live.

## Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
### Common Issues
|
|
|
|
**Path Mapping Problems:**
|
|
- Ensure qbit_manage and qBittorrent have identical path mappings
|
|
- Check that the `root_dir` in config.yml matches the container's view of torrents
|
|
|
|
**Permission Issues:**
|
|
- Verify the qbit_manage container has read/write access to your download directories
|
|
- Check Unraid user/group permissions
|
|
|
|
**Container Won't Start:**
|
|
- Review container logs in the Docker tab
|
|
- Verify config.yml syntax is correct
|
|
- Ensure all required path mappings exist
