Indexers overview

flemzerd uses Indexers to create a list of torrents corresponding to a media. When creating this list, flemzerd also applies filters and sorting to have a more accurate list of torrents. To improve torrent list, the quality can be filtered according to preference set in the configuration file. (see preferred_media_quality parameter in the configuration)

Different providers types

Just like Providers, 2 types of indexers can be defined.

  • TV Indexers: retrieve torrents for tvshows
  • Movie Indexers: retrieve torrents for movies

An Indexer can be a TV Indexer, Movie Indexer or both at the same time.

Available Indexers

The Indexers used by the flemzerd daemon are defined in the configuration file. In this configuration file, multiple you can define multiple Indexers with the following constraints:

  • If TV Shows tracking is enabled, you must define at least one TV Indexer.
  • If movie tracking is enabled, you must define at least one Movie Indexer.

Torznab

Type: TVIndexer, MovieIndexer

Currently only one type of Indexer exists: Torznab.

Torznab is a Newznab-like API designed to query torrents. It is used by Jackett and Cardigann as an interface to torrents sites.

How to use

  • Enable a torznab Indexer in configuration file with the URL to the Torznab indexer (usually Jackett or Cardigann), a name and the API key for the Indexer.
[indexers]
    [[indexers.torznab]]
        name = "Indexer name"
        url = "http://first-indexer:8080/torznab"
        apikey = "API_KEY"
