Magazarr is a small magazine-only companion for Quasarr.
It keeps a free-text magazine list, searches Quasarr for recent issues, sends chosen releases back to Quasarr for download, imports the largest PDF from completed JDownloader folders, and exposes the library through OPDS.
Magazarr automatically searches active titles every 60 minutes by default and checks completed downloads for import every minute by default. Set either interval to 0 to disable that background task.
Run
uv run magazarr
Open http://127.0.0.1:8090.
Docker
Local build:
uv build
mkdir -p docker/dist
cp dist/*.whl docker/dist/
docker build -t magazarr:local docker
Local run:
docker run --rm \
-p 8090:8090 \
-v "$PWD/config:/config" \
-v "$PWD/library:/library" \
-v "$PWD/output:/output" \
magazarr:local
Compose template lives at docker/docker-compose.yml. Replace ghcr.io/your-github-user/magazarr:latest with your published image.
Required Settings
- Quasarr URL and API key.
- Completed package folders reported by Quasarr must be visible to Magazarr at the exact path returned in Quasarr history.
- Library directory for imported PDFs. Docker defaults to
/library; local runs default tolibrary.
Run Quasarr Locally For Testing
In a second terminal:
cd ~/PythonProjects/Quasarr
INTERNAL_ADDRESS=http://127.0.0.1:8080 uv run quasarr
Use the API key printed by Quasarr in Magazarr settings:
- Quasarr URL:
http://127.0.0.1:8080 - Search category:
7000 - Download category:
docs
Quasarr still needs working JDownloader credentials and at least one configured magazine-capable hostname before a real download can complete.
Quasarr Integration
Magazarr uses the Quasarr Newznab/SABnzbd shim:
- Search:
GET /api?t=search&q=<title>&cat=7000&apikey=<key> - Download:
GET /api?mode=addurl&name=<quasarr download link>&cat=docs&apikey=<key> - Import status:
GET /api?mode=history&apikey=<key>
OPDS
OPDS root is:
http://127.0.0.1:8090/opds
Optional basic auth applies only to OPDS routes.
Imported PDF issue entries expose a cover image link. Magazarr renders page 1 of the PDF as a cached PNG on first cover request.
