how to use datadir link dir or making cross-seed search sqlite database

[goffy59]

On Qbittorrent I am using sqlite instead of the fastresume/etc so using BT_backup seems pointless at this point. Since I don't see a way to have it search my sqlite db I was hoping to setup data based searching like ive seen mentioned around here. This is normally working pretty good, I had deleted the old config and started fresh so I can setup download based searching instead of the old way. I would like to thank anyone who provides any helpful pointers to get this working. Thanks!

Tried to read the website but it was not very helpful. says 0 torrents searched here is my docker run:

docker run -d \ --name=cross-seed \ -e PGID=1000 -e PUID=1000 \ -e TZ=America/Phoenix \ -v /home/docker/cross-seed:/config \ -v /raid0/privatetorrent/downloads:/datadirs \ -v /raid0/privatetorrent/downloads:/linkdirs \ -v /home/docker/privatetorrent/config/qBittorrent/BT_backup:/torrents \ -p 2468:2468 \ --restart=always \ crossseed/cross-seed daemon

here is my config:

cat config.js "use strict"; // If you find yourself always using the same command-line flag, you can set // it here as a default. Object.defineProperty(exports, "__esModule", { value: true }); module.exports = { /**

SQLite for qbit's resume is experimental feature yet.

But indeed that seems cool feature to be implemented.

Already discussed here #365

yeah but basically if i could get the download based searching working, it wouldnt matter about SQLITE? anyone have any examples of how to configure the download based data searching??

@goffy59 From what was mention here it doesn't look possible yet? Also you can close this issue as it looks to be a dupe of that issue.

[goffy59]

I am a little confused as to what you mean. I thought download based searching works?

Maybe this helps https://gist.github.com/akesher123/aa91c71a1c37cdd4198bb9f63959ae53
