Discarr is a zero-dependency Node.js web UI that bridges your disc ripping workflow with Sonarr and Radarr. Point it at a VIDEO_TS or BDMV directory, map the title to the right episode or movie in your library, and let it handle the HEVC encode and import.
No npm packages. No Python. No config files to edit by hand — just a browser and a config with your API keys.
Features
- Disc scanning — detects
VIDEO_TS,BDMV, multi-disc, and ISO structures automatically - Episode/movie mapping — web UI maps disc titles to Sonarr episodes or Radarr movies
- HEVC encode queue — dispatches ffmpeg or HandBrake jobs locally or over SSH to a remote host
- IFO chapter extraction — reads DVD structure to split multi-episode discs correctly
- Sonarr/Radarr notification — custom script hooks notify on import, file delete, or completion
- qBittorrent integration — optional hook triggers a scan automatically on torrent completion
- Tdarr notification — optional ping to Tdarr after encode completes
- Persistent job queue — survive restarts; jobs resume automatically
- No npm deps — pure Node.js built-ins only
Quick start
git clone https://git.opensourcesolarpunk.com/Circuit-Forge/discarr
cd discarr
# Set up your API keys
mkdir -p ~/.config/media-postprocessor
cp api-keys.conf.example ~/.config/media-postprocessor/api-keys.conf
$EDITOR ~/.config/media-postprocessor/api-keys.conf
# Run
node server.js
Open http://localhost:8603 — paste a disc path and click Scan.
Install
From source
git clone https://git.opensourcesolarpunk.com/Circuit-Forge/discarr
cd discarr
Requirements: Node.js 18+, ffmpeg, ffprobe (for metadata scanning).
Docker
docker build -t discarr .
docker run -d \
-p 8603:8603 \
-v ~/.config/media-postprocessor:/root/.config/media-postprocessor:ro \
-v ~/.local/share/discarr:/root/.local/share/discarr \
-v /path/to/media:/media \
discarr
The image includes ffmpeg, ffprobe, HandBrake, and openssh-client.
Config
All config lives in ~/.config/media-postprocessor/api-keys.conf (see api-keys.conf.example). Every key can also be set as an environment variable — env vars override the config file.
# Minimum required config
SONARR_URL=http://your-sonarr-host:8989/sonarr
SONARR_API_KEY=your-sonarr-api-key
RADARR_URL=http://your-radarr-host:7878/radarr
RADARR_API_KEY=your-radarr-api-key
Environment variables
| Variable | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|

Web UI port |
DISCARR_CONFIG |
~/.config/media-postprocessor/api-keys.conf |
Config file path |
DISCARR_LOG |
~/.local/share/discarr/jobs.log |
Job log path |
DISCARR_QUEUE |
~/.local/share/discarr/pending-queue.json |

Notification hooks
Drop the scripts from scripts/ as custom hooks in your arr apps and qBittorrent:
| Script | Where to set it |
|---|---|
scripts/sonarr-notify.sh |
Sonarr: Settings → Connect → Custom Script → On Import, On Episode File Delete |
scripts/radarr-notify.sh |
Radarr: Settings → Connect → Custom Script → On Import, On Movie File Delete |
scripts/qbittorrent-notify.sh |
qBittorrent: Options → Downloads → Run external program on torrent completion |
All scripts respect the DISCARR_URL environment variable (default: http://127.0.0.1:8603).
