Syncarr

Syncs two Radarr/Sonarr/Lidarr servers through the web API. Useful for syncing a 4k Radarr/Sonarr instance to a 1080p Radarr/Sonarr instance.

• Supports Radarr/Sonarr version 2 and 3.
• Can sync by profile name or profile_id
• Filter what media gets synced by profile name or profile_id
• Supports Docker for multiple instances
• Can set interval for syncing
• Support two way sync (one way by default)
• Set language profiles (Sonarr v3 only)
• Filter syncing by content file quality (Radarr only)
• Filter syncing by tags (Sonarr/Radarr v3 only)
• Allow for a test run using test_run flag (does everything but actually sync)

Configuration

1. Edit the config.conf file and enter your servers URLs and API keys for each server.

2. Add the profile name (case insensitive) and movie path for the Radarr instance the movies will be synced to:

   [radarrA]
   url = https://4k.example.com:443
   key = XXXXX
   
   [radarrB]
   url = http://127.0.0.1:8080
   key = XXXXX
   profile = 1080p
   path = /data/Movies # if not given will use RadarrA path for each movie - may not be what you want!
   

3. Or if you want to sync two Sonarr instances:

   [sonarrA]
   url = https://4k.example.com:443
   key = XXXXX
   
   [sonarrB]
   url = http://127.0.0.1:8080
   key = XXXXX
   profile = 1080p
   path = /data/Shows
   
   

4. Or if you want to sync two Lidarr instances:

   [lidarrA]
   url = https://lossless.example.com:443
   key = XXXXX
   
   [lidarrB]
   url = http://127.0.0.1:8080
   key = XXXXX
   profile = Standard
   path = /data/Music
   

   Note you cannot have a mix of Radarr, Lidarr, or Sonarr config setups at the same time.

5. Optional Configuration

   [*arrA]
   url = http://127.0.0.1:8080
   key = XXXXX
   profile_filter = 1080p # add a filter to only sync contents belonging to this profile (can set by profile_filter_id as well)
   quality_match = HD- # (Radarr only) regex match to only sync content that matches the set quality (ie if set to 1080p then only movies with matching downloaded quality of 1080p will be synced)
   tag_filter = Horror # (Sonarr/Radarr v3 only) sync movies by tag name (seperate multiple tags by comma (no spaces) ie horror,comedy,action)
   tag_filter_id = 2 # (Sonarr/Radarr v3 only) sync movies by tag id (seperate multiple tags by comma (no spaces) ie 2,3,4)
   blacklist = movie-name-12,movie-name-43,432534,8e38819d-71be-9e7d-b41d-f1df91b01d3f # comma seperated list of content slugs OR IDs you want to never sync from A to B (no spaces)
        # the slug is the part of the URL after "/movies/" (for Radarr), "/series/" (for Sonarr), or "/artist/" (for Lidarr)
   
   [*arrB]
   url = http://127.0.0.1:8080
   key = XXXXX
   profile_id = 1 # Syncarr will try to find id from name but you can specify the id directly if you want
   language = Vietnamese # can set language for new content added (Sonarr v3 only) (can set by language_id as well)
   path = /data/Movies
   
   [general]
   sync_bidirectionally = 1 # sync from instance A to B **AND** instance B to A
   auto_search = 0 # search is automatically started on new content - disable by setting to 0 (default 1)
   monitor_new_content = 0 # set to 0 to never monitor new content synced or to 1 to always monitor new content synced (default 1)
   test_run = 1 # enable test mode - will run through sync program but will not actually sync content
   

   Note If sync_bidirectionally is set to 1, then instance A will require either profile_id or profile AND path as well

Requirements

• Python 3.6 or greater
• 2 Radarr, Sonarr, or Lidarr servers

---

How to Run

1. install the needed python modules (you'll need pip or you can install the modules manually inside the requirements.txt file):

   pip install -r requirements.txt
   

2. run this script directly or through a Cron:

   python index.py
   

---

Docker Compose

This script can run through a docker container with a set interval (default every 5 minutes)

syncarr:
    image: syncarr/syncarr:latest
    container_name: syncarr
    restart: unless-stopped
    environment:
        RADARR_A_URL: https://4k.example.com:443
        RADARR_A_KEY: XXXXX
        RADARR_B_URL: http://127.0.0.1:8080
        RADARR_B_KEY: XXXXX
        RADARR_B_PROFILE: 1080p
        RADARR_B_PATH: /data/Movies
        SYNC_INTERVAL_SECONDS: 300

or

syncarr:
    image: syncarr/syncarr:latest
    container_name: syncarr
    restart: unless-stopped
    environment:
        SONARR_A_URL: https://4k.example.com:443
        SONARR_A_KEY: XXXXX
        SONARR_B_URL: http://127.0.0.1:8080
        SONARR_B_KEY: XXXXX
        SONARR_B_PROFILE: 1080p
        SONARR_B_PATH: /data/Shows
        SYNC_INTERVAL_SECONDS: 300

or

syncarr:
    image: syncarr/syncarr:latest
    container_name: syncarr
    restart: unless-stopped
    environment:
        LIDARR_A_URL: https://lossless.example.com:443
        LIDARR_A_KEY: XXXXX
        LIDARR_B_URL: http://127.0.0.1:8080
        LIDARR_B_KEY: XXXXX
        LIDARR_B_PROFILE: Standard
        LIDARR_B_PATH: /data/Music
        SYNC_INTERVAL_SECONDS: 300

---

Docker

For just plain docker (radarr example):

docker run -it --rm --name syncarr -e RADARR_A_URL=https://4k.example.com:443 -e RADARR_A_KEY=XXXXX -e RADARR_B_URL=http://127.0.0.1:8080 -e RADARR_B_KEY=XXXXX -e RADARR_B_PROFILE=1080p -e RADARR_B_PATH=/data/Movies -e SYNC_INTERVAL_SECONDS=300 syncarr/syncarr

Notes

• You can also specify the PROFILE_ID directly through the *ARR_A_PROFILE_ID and *ARR_B_PROFILE_ID ENV variables. To filter by profile in docker use *ARR_A_PROFILE_FILTER or *ARR_A_PROFILE_FILTER_ID ENV variables. (same for *arr_B in bidirectional sync)
• Language for new content (Sonarr v3 only) can be set by SONARR_B_LANGUAGE or SONARR_B_LANGUAGE_ID (and SONARR_B if bidirectional sync)
• Set bidirectional sync with SYNCARR_BIDIRECTIONAL_SYNC=1 (default 0)
• Set disable auto searching on new content with SYNCARR_AUTO_SEARCH=0 (default 1)
• Set if you want to NOT monitor new content with SYNCARR_MONITOR_NEW_CONTENT=0 (default 1)
• Match regex quality profiles with *ARR_A_QUALITY_MATCH or *ARR_B_QUALITY_MATCH
• Filter by tag names or ids with *ARR_A_TAG_FILTER / *ARR_B_TAG_FILTER or *ARR_A_TAG_FILTER_ID / *ARR_B_TAG_FILTER_ID
• Enable test mode with SYNCARR_TEST_RUN
• add blacklist with *ARR_A_BLACKLIST and **ARR_B_BLACKLIST

---

Troubleshooting

If you need to troubleshoot syncarr, then you can either set the log level through the config file:

[general]
log_level = 10

Or in docker, set the LOG_LEVEL ENV variable. Default is set to 20 (info only) but you can set to 10 to get debug info as well. When pasting debug logs online, make sure to remove any apikeys and any other data you don't want others to see.
