qbit_automatch

Description:

Script to match torrent files with renamed files, then updating qBittorrent accordingly.
The script uses length in bytes and extension to match the files, torrent files don't have individual file hashes so this is what I could do.
All the torrent files must have a match in the search dir, otherwise the script will fail.

Dependencies:

Python 2.7+ or 3.2+ (according to vermin)
bencode.py
psutil
rapidfuzz

python -m pip install bencode.py psutil rapidfuzz

python3 -m pip install bencode.py psutil rapidfuzz

pip install bencode.py psutil rapidfuzz

Usage:

usage: qbit_automatch.py [-h] -a HASH -s PATH [-b PATH] [-f N] [-d]

required arguments:
  -a HASH, --hash HASH  Torrent hash. In qBittorrent right click the torrent -> copy -> hash
  -s PATH, --search_dir PATH
                        Where to search for the files. Must be an absolute path

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -b PATH, --bt_backup PATH
                        BT_backup location, defaults to:
                        Windows: C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\qBittorrent\BT_backup
                        Linux: /home/<username>/.local/share/data/qBittorrent/BT_backup
                        OS X: /Users/<username/Library/ApplicationSupport/qBittorrent/BT_backup
  -f N, --fix_duplicates N
                        Values:
                        0: throw an error when duplicates are found
                        1: be prompted to choose files when duplicates are found
                        2: use fuzzy string matching and choose files automatically
                        3: use fuzzy string matching and choose files automatically but be prompted before proceeding
                        Defaults to 0
  -d, --debug           Enable debug

Windows:

py qbit_automatch.py --hash HASH --search_dir SEARCH_DIR

Linux/OS X:

python3 qbit_automatch.py --hash HASH --search_dir SEARCH_DIR

hash: Torrent hash. Can be obtained in qBittorrent UI by: Right Click Torrent -> Copy -> Hash
search_dir: the absolute path of the root folder of the files which are already on the disk
bt_backup: If your qBittorrent/BT_backup is not in the default location then you can use this parameter and input the correct absolute path
fix_duplicates: If the script is matching torrent files with more than one disk file you can use this option to fix it manually or use string matching to decide the correct file

What it does:

Opens the torrent file
Searches the provided dir for matches in size and extension
If all files have a match, updates qBittorrent .fastresume file with the new paths
A .fastresume.bkp file will be created in the first run

Example:

Say you have this structure on your disk:

D:
└── organized_folder
    ├── renamed_file_1.mkv
    └── renamed_file_2.avi

But you want to seed those files in a torrent that's organized like this:

folder_1:
├── child_folder_1
│   └── file_1.mkv
└── child_folder_2
    └── child_folder_3
        └── file_2.avi

You'll get the torrent hash (let's say it's XPTO) and call the script like this:

py qbit_automatch.py --hash XPTO --search_dir "D:\organized_folder"

py qbit_automatch.py --hash XPTO --search_dir "D:"

The script will automatically point the torrent to the proper folder and files.
You still have to recheck the torrent in qbitorrent for now.
