Or, with streaming (see `Streaming `_)
Make sure your python version is at least python3.8 and you're using that
version's pip.
On archlinux, you can install it from AUR
(https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/katcr/), with your favourite aur package
installer, such as yay.

.. _streaming:
Streaming
---------
Streaming requires `libtorrent `_ .
With libtorrent installed, you'll need to install katcr's streaming extras, for
that matter, install it with [stream],
.. code:: bash
pip install katcr[stream]
Then, just run it with
.. code:: bash
poetry run katcr search --engine Jackett "Big Buck Bunny" --stream
Jackett Support
---------------
You can easily use a `Jackett `_ instance
to search on all your configured provider.
This allows you to search on any jackett-supported site (that's about supported
300 trackers). **Jackett** is probably the best way to use this software, as it
has a more active mantainance of the tracker sites.
To enable Jackett use, simply export your jackett URL and TOKEN as
environmental variables
You can search on individual jackett providers by specifying the provider
separated by ":", as in:
.. code:: bash
poetry run katcr --engine=jackett:thepiratebay "Big Buck Bunny"
Note that you need to have the provider configured correctly in jackett.
.. code:: bash
JACKETT_HOST=http://127.0.0.1:9117 JACKETT_APIKEY= poetry run katcr --engine=jackett "Big Buck Bunny"
Or, for a more permanent solution, write a config file to
`${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/katcr.ini` (wich is usually
`~/.config/katcr.ini`) with the host and apikeys values:
.. code:: ini
[jackett]
host = http://127.0.0.1
apikey = 12345
# host = https://127.0.0.1
# host = https://127.0.0.1/prefix/
# ssl and prefix supported
Bot
---
Katcr comes with a bot command, connecting to telegram
.. image:: docs/bot.png
To start a katcr bot, you need a bot token from the GodFather.
Open a conversation to `GodFather `_ to get more
information on how to get a token.
Just launch the bot with --token=your_token
.. code:: bash
USAGE
console bot [--token [<...>]]
OPTIONS
--token Bot token. Ask BotFather
GLOBAL OPTIONS
-h (--help) Display this help message
-q (--quiet) Do not output any message
-v (--verbose) Increase the verbosity of messages: "-v" for normal output, "-vv" for more verbose output
and "-vvv" for debug
-V (--version) Display this application version
--ansi Force ANSI output
--no-ansi Disable ANSI output
-n (--no-interaction) Do not ask any interactive question
Docker
