Reference count torrent data for safe removal at any time.

Deluge Forum Thread

This is a Deluge plugin that does 2 things:

1. On torrent download completion, recursively hard-links files to dest_dir.
2. On seeding torrent ratio > ratio, automatically remove torrent with original data.

This allows your seedbox to automatically clean up when a target ratio is reached without worrying about whether it's safe to do so. Conversely, when you're done with the files, you can safely remove them from dest_dir without worrying about whether the seedbox is done with the data yet.

Enabling the plugin creates a default config, which you can modify to suit your needs.

// rc-data.conf
{
    "dest_dir": "/data/done",
    "ratio": 2.0
}

python3 ./setup.py bdist_egg

• Linux is unable to hard-link across mount points or file systems.
• If you are using Deluge in a docker container, both dest_dir and your data directory must be in the same docker volume.
• No Windows support.
