Use screen/rtorrent/cronie to manage torrent client
`man rtorrent` for the keybindings:
- `Enter` to input magnet from piratebay manually
- `C-s` to start download
- `C-d` to delete
For ArchLinux only:
Prepare directory
mkdir -p ~/bt/{session,finished,torrent}
Install
sudo pacman -S cronie
sudo systemctl enable cronie
sudo systemctl start cronie
Add cron task to start and stop rtorrent service
crontab -e #add cron task as current user
The default editor will be open, input below content:
#start rtorrent sesssion at 1am
0 1 * * * /usr/bin/screen -fa -d -m -S torrent /usr/bin/rtorrent
# kill it at 9am
0 10 * * * /usr/bin/screen -S torrent -X quit
Done!
