How to setup NZBGet to use with Sonarr/Radarr.

This basic example is based on the use of the Linux|Server.io's docker images, Even that I personally don't prefer their folder setup it's easy for starters to use and also because most people use their docker images I decided to use them for this tutorial.


Some Basics

${MainDir} => Root directory for all tasks.

${AppDir} => Where NZBGet is installed.

${DestDir} => Destination directory for downloaded files.

PATHS

I will only explain the so called most importand paths.

MainDir => /downloads DestDir => ${MainDir}/completed (so it will go in to /downloads/completed) InterDir => Files are downloaded into this directory (before unpack+par2) NzbDir => Directory for incoming nzb-files. QueueDir => This directory is used to save download queue, history, information statistics, etc. ScriptDir => Directory with post-processing and other scripts. LogFile => Where your logfiles will be stored (please create a log directory in your config!!!)

NEWS-SERVERS

Active => Use this news server. Name => The name is used in UI and for logging. It can be any string. Level => Put your major download servers at level 0 and your fill servers at levels 1, 2, etc.. Host => Host name of news server. Port => Port to connect to. Password => Password to use for authentication. Encryption => Encrypted server connection (TLS/SSL). (PREFERED TO USE THIS!!!) Connections => Maximum number of simultaneous connections.(Use as less as possible Don't max it !!!) Retention => How long the articles are stored on the news server.

CATEGORIES

Name => This should match what you put in Sonarr/Radarr (tv/movies/sonarr/radarr/series/films) DestDir => ${DestDir} Destination directory (/downloads/completed/Movies) Unpack => Unpack downloaded nzb-files. Extensions => List of extension scripts for this category.

INCOMING NZBS

AppendCategoryDir => Create subdirectory with category-name in destination-directory.
