qBitTorrent FileList search plugin

This a search plugin for qBitTorrent allowing in app search for filelist.io.

It's still in beta version requiring testing and feeback from users.

Installing

Please follow this official guide: https://github.com/qbittorrent/search-plugins/wiki/Install-search-plugins

Post install - login

filelist.io is a private torrent site requiring login. You need to input your username and password in the filelist.py file or in an external .json file to enable searches.

• Method 1: input credentials in the .json file: Download filelist_credentials_model.json from the repository, rename it to filelist_credentials.json, edit it with your name and password and move it to the qBitTorrent engines folder (see bellow folder location).

qBittorrent
  nova3
    engines
      ...
      eztv.py
      filelist.py
      filelist_credentials.json
      filelist.log (see Logging bellow)
      jackett.py
      ...

• Method 2: input credentials in filelist.py Open the filelist.py file and edit the values your_username_here and your_password_here:

credentials = {
    'username': 'your_username_here',
    'password': 'your_password_here'
}

Priorities

If the scripts finds filelist_credentials.json in the same directory it will load credentials from the file and inhibit values from filelist.py.

If you intend to input credentials directly in filelist.py don't use filelist_credentials.json.

Folder location

• Windows: %localappdata%\qBittorrent\nova3\engines\
• Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/qBittorrent/nova3/engines

Logging

After each search/download the script creates a filelist.log file that you can check if there are problems.
