## About

---

[Qbittorrent](https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent) is a cross-platform free and open-source BitTorrent client.
This addon is based on the docker image from [linuxserver.io](https://www.linuxserver.io/).

This addons has several configurable options :

- allowing to mount local external drive, or smb share from the addon
- [alternative webUI](https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent/wiki/List-of-known-alternate-WebUIs)
- usage of ssl
- ingress
- optional openvpn support
- allow setting specific DNS servers

## Configuration

---

Webui can be found at <http://your-ip:8080>, or in your sidebar using Ingress.
The default username/password : described in the startup log.
Configurations can be done through the app webUI, except for the following options

customUI: selection from list # alternative webUI can be set here. Latest version set at each addon start.
DNS_servers: 8.8.8.8,1.1.1.1 # Keep blank to use router’s DNS, or set custom DNS to avoid spamming in case of local DNS ad-remover

```

## Installation

---

The installation of this add-on is pretty straightforward and not different in comparison to installing any other add-on.

1. Add my add-ons repository to your home assistant instance (in supervisor addons store at top right, or click button below if you have configured my HA)
   [![Open your Home Assistant instance and show the add add-on repository dialog with a specific repository URL pre-filled.](https://my.home-assistant.io/badges/supervisor_add_addon_repository.svg)](https://my.home-assistant.io/redirect/supervisor_add_addon_repository/?repository_url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Falexbelgium%2Fhassio-addons)
1. Install this add-on.
1. Click the `Save` button to store your configuration.
1. Set the add-on options to your preferences
1. Start the add-on.
1. Check the logs of the add-on to see if everything went well.
1. Open the webUI and adapt the software options

## Integration with HA

Use the [qBittorrent integration](https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/qbittorrent/)

You can use the following snippets to check and set the alternate speeds (the HA integration above is not needed for this)
```bash
shell_command: 
  toggle_torrent_speed: curl -X POST https://<YOUR HA IP>:8081/api/v2/transfer/toggleSpeedLimitsMode -k
sensor:
  - platform: command_line
    name: get_torrent_speed
    command: curl https://<YOUR HA IP>:8081/api/v2/transfer/speedLimitsMode -k
```
If you're not using the SSL option, you can skip the -k parameter and use http instead of https in the URL

These lines will expose a `sensor.get_torrent_speed` that updates every 60 seconds and returns 1 if the alternate speed mode is enabled, 0 otherwise, and a `shell_command.toggle_torrent_speed` that you can call as a Service in your automations



## Common issues

### ipv6 issues with openvpn (@happycoo)

Add this code to your .ovpn config
```bash
# don't route lan through vpn
route 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0 net_gateway

# deactivate ipv6
pull-filter ignore "dhcp-option DNS6"
pull-filter ignore "tun-ipv6"
pull-filter ignore "ifconfig-ipv6"
```

### nginx error code (@Nanianmichaels)

>[cont-init.d] 30-nginx.sh: executing...
>[cont-init.d] 30-nginx.sh: exited 1.

Wait a couple minutes and restart addon, it could be a temporary unavailability of github

### Local mount with invalid argument (@antonio1475)

>[cont-init.d] 92-local_mounts.sh: executing...
Local Disks mounting...
mount: mounting /dev/sda1 on /mnt/sda1 failed: Invalid argument
>[19:19:44] FATAL: Unable to mount local drives! Please check the name.
>[cont-init.d] 92-local_mounts.sh: exited 0.

Try to mount by putting the partition label in the "localdisks" options instead of the hardware name

### Loss of metadata fetching with openvpn after several days (@almico)

Add ```ping-restart 60``` to your config.ovpn
