every once in awhile i get a bug up my butt about sharing my massive, curated library… but every time i get distracted by the volume of steps it would take to create the necessary shit to seed and then find a place that would even take those seeds to index.
ami doin it wrong? why is it so hard? napster was easy.
Edit: OP actually has a simple folder structure, and
transmission-create
works fine, so no need for anything more than just looping over 1st level folders and files with a simple shell script.Basically you’d want to map seasons to folders within the torrent files. I found the
torf
python library on github that looks good, but there are two questions:Not that I’m implicitly saying I’d write a program to do this (I’m very unreliable), but looks like you’d need to go the programming route (you or someone else). It’s a matter of walking your folders, finding those XML files, parsing them with a library (python has a built in one), finding what to do with that info exactly, and passing it to torf. And preferably, saving the cryptographic sums, as well as the progress of the program. If you have the cryptographic sums in the XML files, it’d be worth it to make the program concurrent with threads, as it would be about reading and writing files as fast as possible, and this could be so fast saving progress would be pointless.
