CouchPotato Server
CouchPotato (CP) is an automatic NZB and torrent downloader. You can keep a "movies I want"-list and it will search for NZBs/torrents of these movies every X hours. Once a movie is found, it will send it to SABnzbd or download the torrent to a specified directory.
Running from Source
CouchPotatoServer can be run from source. This will use git as updater, so make sure that is installed also.
Windows, see the CP forum for more details:
- Install Python 2.7
- Then install PyWin32 2.7 and GIT
- If you come and ask on the forums 'why directory selection no work?', I will kill a kitten, also this is because you need PyWin32
- Open up
Git Bash(or CMD) and go to the folder you want to install CP. Something like Program Files. - Run
git clone https://github.com/RuudBurger/CouchPotatoServer.git. - You can now start CP via
CouchPotatoServer\CouchPotato.pyto start
