i have a vast amount of bib torrents seeding across all of my machines, which i'm trying to unify on one machine in whatmanager. great software, looks very promising for my use.

i was hoping to get your advice on how to most painlessly add a large number of files already seeding to whatmanager? the main way i imagine is adding them directly to a transmission instance using the .torrent files. the thing making me hesitant is i don't know if i should be adding them from bibliotik using the userscript, to make them part of whatmanager, or if that'll be achieved by adding stuff straight into the transmission.

i'm also wondering about a conservative estimate of how many book torrents i should have in a transmission instance before starting a new one. thanks.

You can batch execute this script: https://github.com/karamanolev/WhatManager2/blob/master/WhatManager2/management/commands/import_external_what_torrent.py
You might need to modify it (or not) - I don't remember very well what it did. Haven't worked on WM2 for ages. Unfortunately, user-friendly it's not. At best, it's developer friendly - you should be able to quickly pull together a python script to do it using the existing code.

As for number - I'm at 4400 at the moment, I think 3000-4000 is a good estimate, so 3000 would be conservative.

It's user-friendly enough! I'm not a completely non-technical user but I've gotten it up and running and I'm quite impressed. A new lease of life for my What/PTH habit.

What I was expecting was a tool that would help me manage n torrent clients on one server, that just happened to have cool userscript integrations. It's less slick but I'm forging ahead with Dockered Transmission instances for my long-term Bib needs.

Thank you for your work!
