PtpUploader

A small uploader for a mildly popular movie site.

About

With PtpUploader's WebUI you can upload to PTP by specifying a torrent and an IMDb or PTP link. The torrent can be a local path, a link to another site, or a literal .torrent file.

There is also an automatic mode built-in that can check announcements from IRC or RSS and upload everything (semi-)automatically.

It is still solely your responsibility to make sure anything you upload has correct information and is allowed under the rules.

Getting started

Manual

1. Install required dependencies. This is example is for Ubuntu, the exact command/package names may change depending on your distro:

sudo apt install python3 mpv imagemagick mediainfo

2. Install the python package:

## Using a dedicated virtualenv is optional but highly recommended
# sudo apt install python3-venv
# virtualenv ~/.venv/ptpuploader/
# source ~/.venv/ptpuploader/bin/activate
pip3 install PtpUploader

3. Create the config file:

mkdir -pv ~/.config/ptpuploader/
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kannibalox/PtpUploader/main/src/PtpUploader/config.default.yml -O ~/.config/ptpuploader/config.yml
nano ~/.config/ptpuploader/config.yml # Edit config file as needed

4. Start the process:

PtpUploader runuploader

5. Add an admin user:

PtpUploader createsuperuser

6. Navigate to http://localhost:8000/jobs and enter the admin credentials.

Docker

1. Clone the repo

git clone https://github.com/kannibalox/PtpUploader.git
cd PtpUploader/
