A Python tool that lets you find and download torrents without leaving your CLI.

Torrra provides a streamlined command-line interface for torrent search and downloads, powered by Jackett/Prowlarr and Libtorrent. Built with Textual, it offers a beautiful TUI with pause/resume support - all without leaving your terminal.

Full documentation: https://torrra.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

pipx install torrra

Other options: AUR, standalone binaries, Homebrew or Docker.

See full install options →

torrra jackett --url http://localhost:9117 --api-key <your_api_key>

Then use the arrow keys to navigate, Enter to download, p to pause, r to resume, q to quit.

For persistent settings, torrra uses a config.toml file where you can configure your indexers, download paths, and themes. This avoids the need to pass arguments on every run.

For example, to set up Jackett as your default indexer:

# Set your Jackett URL and API key
torrra config set indexers.jackett.url http://localhost:9117
torrra config set indexers.jackett.api_key <your_api_key>

# Set Jackett as the default indexer
torrra config set indexers.default jackett

Now you can simply run torrra to start searching:

torrra
