Set up a seedbox (on DigitalOcean – Ubuntu) really quick

Introduction

  • This script lets you set up and use a temporary DigitalOcean droplet to download torrent files.
  • Once downloaded, they can be streamed down to your local machine.
  • This uses transmission-cli for the torrent client, and nginx to serve files.

Setup on Local Machine

  • This assumes that you have a DigitalOcean account and tugboat set up, as well as seedbox-setup.sh present in the current directory.
