= Installation = [[ https://github.com/SickGear/SickGear/wiki/Installation-Instructions | Official installation instructions are available ]]; here are some more specific ones slimmed down and slightly embellished. These largely follow the [[ https://github.com/SickGear/SickGear/wiki/Install-SickGear-%5B3%5D-Ubuntu#install | manual Ubuntu installation ]] approach. == Basic Installation == # To get the dependencies: `sudo apt update && sudo apt install python-cheetah python-regex unrar-free git` # Now clone the git repo: `sudo git clone https://github.com/SickGear/SickGear.git /opt/sickgear` # Give yourself ownership: `sudo chown -R yourusername /opt/sickgear` # Start your initial run with: `/opt/sickgear/sickgear.py` ## First up, we're gonna be running this as a service, so we //don't// want it to launch the browser when it starts. {nav icon=cogs, name=Settings > icon=cog, name=General > Misc} and uncheck the {nav open the SickGear home page on startup} option at the top. You can always get back to it with your browser at https://localhost:8081 (or whatever you choose as the port, I just used the default). ## A bit further down, you'll probably want to set a root directory for shows. ## {nav Save Changes} ## Under {nav icon=cogs, name=Settings > icon=cog, name=General > Interface > Web Interface}, set a username and password (this application is acting as your user, keep it safe!). Hit the {nav Save Changes} button at the bottom of this section, too, and you should be dumped out to a login screen where you can now log in with your freshly set credentials. ## By default SickGear renames files. If you're using good sources, this might be annoying! This can be disabled under {nav icon=cogs, name=Settings > icon=folder, name=Post Processing > File Handling}. If you leave this enabled, make sure to check out the pattern set in {nav icon=cogs, name=Settings > icon=folder, name=Post Processing > Episode Naming} and change it if you have a different preference (click the {icon list-alt} button to show the naming legend). == Existing Media == D'oh, I though it was hard, I just didn't see the option. {nav Settings > Import}! ---- = Integrations = == Integration with Transmission == # Transmission's UI is terrible, so if you're like me you'll just install and configure the daemon. (Skip this of course if you already have Transmission installed and configured.) ## `sudo apt install transmission-daemon` ## `sudo service transmission-daemon stop` ## `sudo nano /var/lib/transmission-daemon/info/settings.json` and set at least `rpc-password` to your plaintext password (it will be hashed upon the daemon restart) # {nav SickGear > icon=cogs, name=Settings > icon=search, name=Search > Torrent Results} and checkmark {nav enable torrent media providers}, then fill in your Transmission settings, {nav Test Connection}, and {nav Save Changes}. # {nav SickGear > icon=cogs, name=Options > icon=book, name=Media Providers > Priorities}, enable your preferred trackers/indexes and order them, {nav Save Changes}, and then go over to the {nav Options } tab to configure them (for each provider you will need to enable options under {nav Options > Perform search tasks} if you want them to actually be used at all). == Integration with SABnzbd == === SABnzbd to SickGear === # `cd /opt/sickgear/autoProcessTV/ && cp autoProcessTV.cfg.sample autoProcessTV.cfg` # `nano autoProcessTV.cfg` (or your text editor of choice) and change at least the username and password to match your SickBeard setup as above. # In the SABnzbd web interface, go to {nav Config > Folders} and set {nav Scripts Folder} to `/opt/sickgear/autoProcessTV/`, and {nav Save Changes}. # Still in SABnzbd, {nav Config > Categories} and add a TV category with the Script set to `sabToSickBeard.py`. # Leave that window open (don't save changes yet) and now back in SickGear, {nav icon=cogs, name=Settings > icon=folder, name=Post Processing}, ## Change {nav Post-Processing > Process episode method} to {nav Move} ## Toggle on {nav Failed Downloads > failed download handling} ## Checkmark {nav delete left over files from a failed download} which should now have appeared. ## Over in SABnzbd, we need to set some stuff so that this orchestration is handled right ### {nav Config > Switches} and at the top checkmark {nav Advanced Settings}. ### {nav Config > Switches > Queue} and disable {nav Abort jobs that cannot be completed}, and {nav Save Changes}. ### {nav Config > Switches > Post processing} and disable {nav Post-Process Only Verified Jobs}, and {nav Save Changes}. ### {nav Config > Special > Switches} and enable {nav empty_postproc}, then {nav Save Changes} # Now finally save changes in SickGear's {nav Post Processing > Failed Downloads} config section. === SickGear to SABnzbd === # Get your API key from {nav SABnzbd > Config > General > Security } # {nav SickGear > icon=cogs, name=Settings > icon=search, name=NZB Results} and ## Enable {nav Search NZBs}, then ## Set {Send .nzb files to} to {nav SABnzbd} ## Set your server URL ## Paste in your API key ## The category should be "tv" by default, but change this if you used something else above ## {nav Test SABnzbd} and {nav Save Changes} if all is well. # {nav SickGear > icon=cogs, name=Options > icon=book, name=Media Providers > Priorities}, enable your NZB service and {nav Save Settings}. # {nav SickGear > icon=cogs, name=Options > icon=book, name=Media Providers > Options}, set your credentials for your NZB provider, and {nav Save Settings}.
