Does this support custom lists in trakt? #6

I'm confused about this script. Will it help me scrape the custom lists in my Trakt account into Sonarr? What about Pogdesign? If not I don't understand the point. Why would someone want Sonarr to download random public searches instead of custom lists? Why do I need an account ID if it can't access the lists in my personal account?

Maybe the point is to search trakt with custom filters (like language, date, genre) without needing a VIP membership, then add shows from the list that is output into Sonarr? Let me know if this is the case. I have a VIP membership so I don't need that.

Also, is this automated in Sonarr once I install it? Will it check trakt regularly without my interaction? And do I still need to pick shows from the "Add shows" tab?

The only thing I've seen that successfully uses trakt custom lists to download automatically is Flexget. But it's commandline-only for right now. I would love to use Sonarr instead. Is this my solution?

Thanks.

Hi,

This script is primarily written to fetch tv series based on trend, popularity, etc. Besides that, you add extra filters eg. minimum rating (Trakt only) or minimum stars (Pogdesign).

Trakt requires an API key to access its API. That's why you need a personal account.

This script sends the tv shows to Sonarr. What happens after that depends on your Sonarr configuration in Sonarr.

This script needs to be run manually for it to look for new tv shows. My suggestion is to run it as a cron job once a week or so.

As of now, the script can only fetch trending, popular, watched, collected, anticipated, and new lists on Trakt.

So in my personal trakt account I could mark my desired tv shows as collected or anticipated and sonarr would fetch the magnets from my chosen RSS link?

Is this working with the latest version of Sonarr?

I will give it a try if so. I don't really feel like messing with Flextget scripts.
