Configuration

rofi-tpb stores its config in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/rofi-tpb/config.ini.

The default configuration is the following:

[menu]
command = rofi -dmenu -i
torrent_format = {title:<65} 📁{filesize:<12} 🔽{seeds:<4} 🔼{leeches:<4} Trusted: {trusted} VIP: {vip}
vip_str = ✅
not_vip_str = ❌
trusted_str = ✅
not_trusted_str = ❌
use_tpb_proxy = True
tpb_url = https://thepiratebay0.org
categories = All, APPLICATIONS, AUDIO, GAMES, OTHER, PORN, VIDEO
categories_48h = True

[actions]
add = xdg-open '{magnetlink}'
open = xdg-open '{url}'

• menu.command: the dynamic menu command which should read from stdin and output to stdout, if you want to use dmenu instead of rofi then adjust this command accordingly.
• menu.torrent_format: text representation of a torrent in the dynamic menu, accepts torrent string format keys.
• menu.use_tpb_proxy: if True will use the first tpb url as found on https://piratebayproxy.info/.
• menu.vip_str: string to use in the menu.torrent_format when the user is VIP.
• menu.not_vip_str: string to use in the menu.torrent_format when the user is not VIP.
• menu.trusted_str: string to use in the menu.torrent_format when the user is trusted.
• menu.not_trusted_str: string to use in the menu.torrent_format when the user is not trusted.
• menu.tpb_url: tpb url, if use_tpb_proxy is True acts as a fallback url in case https://piratebayproxy.info/ is unavailable or the parsing fails.
• menu.categories: comma separated list of tpb categories, when browsing the top torrents.
• menu.categories_48h: add last 48h top torrent categories.
• actions.*: commands to run on the selected torrent, accepts torrent string format keys.

Available torrent string format keys:

• {title}: torrent title
• {filesize}: torrent file size
• {seeds}: number of seeders
• {leeches}: number of leechers
• {uploader}: torrent uploader
• {upload_date}: upload date
• {url}: torrent's tpb url
• {magnetlink}: torrent magnet link
• {vip}: uploader is VIP, replaced with menu.vip_str/menu.not_vip_str.
• {trusted}: uploader is trusted, replaced with menu.trusted_str/menu.not_trusted_str.

If the menu.command uses rofi, rofi-tpb will use rofi's -multiple-select flag to allow for selecting multiple torrents.
