Pausing popular torrents isn't something that qBittorrent handles well. This library uses 2 criteria to pause / stop torrents.

They are stopped if they are:

  • Popular (IE have a lot of total seeds)
  • You've given back more than what you've taken (IE a seed ratio > 1)

This library

Requirements

  • Rust
  • A qBittorrent server.
  • An API key generated through the web UI.
  • A crontab where this script can be periodically run.

Usage

This will pause torrents with a ratio >= 2, and more than 10 total seeds.

cargo run -- \
--api-key API_KEY \
--endpoint ENDPOINT \
--ratio 2 \
--total-seeds 10
10   Original
