It's just a python script.
Turn on web-interface. Edit your paraments and run python qbittorrent_plugin_filter_files.py
Thanks but I already had the ui running and open and still does not work, what parameters? a script or a plugin? i was looking for an actual install-able 'plugin' not a script referenced as a plugin with no guide or instructions.
It is not an actual plugin.
Parameters in the script like this - https://gist.github.com/oltodosel/566e051191f3a58b905db2cc6980656f#file-qbittorrent_plugin_filter_files-py-L21
So where below the "for ext in block_extensions:" of that small portion of the code do I enter three different types of extensions that I want blocked/filtered-out?
How do I run this from the "WEB-UI" of QBT?
You do not edit the code there if you don't know what you're doing.
block_extensions = ['psd', 'zzz']
<- in here are the extensions. Line 21.
You do not run it from the web-ui. You run it from the command line python qbittorrent_plugin_filter_files.py
Python36-32>python qbittorrent_plugin_filter_files.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "qbittorrent_plugin_filter_files.py", line 4, in
import requests
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'requests'
I used pythonw instead and there were no errors, however, nothing happens.
Install module named requests
sudo pacman -S python-requests
something like that.
I've no idea what's pythonw. If the script works, files of torrents with given extensions should be unchecked.
I won't give you step-by-step instructions what to do and stop responding. Tough luck. Forget my script and uncheck unneeded files manually.
i have already 'insalled' pip and 'requests', but before i install your script, how/where do insert the three extensions?
block_extensions = ['psd', 'zzz']
<- in here are the extensions. Line 21
This is really my last reply.
well, unfortunately it did not work:

@linuxlad Did you edit the torrent_hashes
variable? If you have only one hash put it between single quotes, such as torrent_hashes= 'abc'
@oltodosel Thanks for the script, I used it as a base to write my own. One thing to note is that you can specify multiple file ids by separating them with |
. Unfortunately I've run into bugs with v4.2.1 so I had to revert to 3.3.16, where this is not possible.
@Bangaio65,
No, I have several different hashes but I never made it that far since I was unable to make the script work. In all the excitement to add this script, I did not consider the possibility that the filtering would create incomplete part files for every torrent so I would have had to do exactly what I ended up doing which was to create an executable to handle three file extensions(two by name and one by extension) and set the client option to silently execute it immediately upon the completion of each torrent. So this prevents any post manual clean-up or accumulation of junk files. If the regex 'either' symbol requires v4+ then it would not have worked for me either since I'm on 3.6.
Hey, for those who still need it: I've made some updates to the script, including automatically fetching the torrent list and some other QoL improvements: https://gist.github.com/talanov/29bacef1ba1cb7aa89caa4c0bc9cb9bd
This plugin does not work: 'couldn't install. plugin is not supported'. Which version of qbittorrent is this made for? and what is the install method other than the 'search plugins'?
