💿 Discarr

Scan disc rips. Map titles. Queue HEVC encodes. Notify Sonarr and Radarr when done.

License: GPL-3.0 Node.js No npm deps


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
PORT 8603 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 Pending queue path

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).
