# Importarr
Importarr is an Arr-style service for importing manually categorized SABnzbd downloads after SAB reports final completion. It owns one SAB category, defaults to `manual`, and refuses to import transient Direct Unpack paths or jobs still in SAB queue/post-processing.
## Install
Importarr is intended to feel like a small Arr service: deploy the container or systemd service, edit one env file, point SABnzbd category `manual` at the same completed-download path, then open the web UI.
### Docker Compose, recommended
```sh
mkdir -p importarr/config
cd importarr
curl -fsSLO https://example.com/importarr/deploy/docker-compose.example.yml
curl -fsSLo importarr.env https://example.com/importarr/deploy/importarr.env.example
${EDITOR:-vi} importarr.env
docker compose -f docker-compose.example.yml --env-file importarr.env up -d
```
Then open `http://host:8765/` or put it behind your reverse proxy. For a local build instead of a published image, run:
```sh
docker build -t importarr:local .
```
### systemd / pip install
```sh
git clone https://example.com/importarr.git
cd importarr
sudo sh deploy/systemd-install.sh
sudo ${EDITOR:-vi} /etc/importarr/importarr.env
sudo systemctl start importarr.service
```
The installer creates the `importarr` system user when needed, installs a virtualenv, and installs the package from the checked-out repository. Override install paths with `IMPORTARR_*` variables if the defaults do not fit your environment.
For a machine that should stay current with the repository, use the installed repo-upgrade helper:
```sh
sudo -n sh /opt/importarr/repo-upgrade.sh
```
The helper refuses to run when the checkout has uncommitted changes, then performs `git pull --ff-only`, reinstalls the package from the repo, restarts `importarr.service`, and prints service status. Use it after changes have been committed and pushed to `main`.
Release-worthy changes should be committed, tagged with SemVer (`v0.1.1`, `v0.2.0`, ...), pushed with tags, then installed from the tagged checkout or artifact.
### Required setup
1. In SABnzbd, create or confirm category `manual`.
2. Set its completed folder to the same path mounted as `IMPORTARR_DOWNLOAD_ROOT`.
3. Set `IMPORTARR_SAB_URL` and `IMPORTARR_SAB_API_KEY_FILE` or `IMPORTARR_SAB_API_KEY`.
4. Mount/configure `IMPORTARR_MOVIES_ROOT` and `IMPORTARR_TV_ROOT` read/write.
5. Set `IMPORTARR_AUTH_TOKEN` unless write endpoints are protected by a reverse proxy.
6. Check `GET /health`, then inspect `/api/preview` before running imports.
## Safety model
- SAB-managed imports must be in `IMPORTARR_SAB_CATEGORY` and present in SAB history as `Completed` with final `storage`.
- Active queue/post-processing states such as `Queued`, `Repairing`, `Extracting`, and `Moving` are never ready.
- `_UNPACK_`, `__UNPACK__`, `_FAILED_`, and `_ADMIN_` paths are skipped.
- Manual batches are explicit one-time folders under `IMPORTARR_DOWNLOAD_ROOT`.
## API
- `GET /health`
- `GET /api/status`
- `GET /api/jobs`
- `GET /api/preview`
- `GET /api/history`
- `GET /api/manual-batches`
- `POST /api/manual-batches` with `{ "path": "relative/or/absolute/path" }`
- `DELETE /api/manual-batches/{id}`
- `POST /api/control/start`
- `POST /api/control/pause`
- `POST /api/control/stop`
- `POST /api/control/cancel-current`
- `POST /api/queue-items/{id}/action` with `{ "action": "retry|ignore|remove" }`
- `POST /api/import/run-now`
Set `IMPORTARR_AUTH_TOKEN_FILE` or `IMPORTARR_AUTH_TOKEN` to require `Authorization: Bearer <token>` for write endpoints.
## Development
```sh
python3.12 -m venv .venv
. .venv/bin/activate
pip install -e '.[test]'
pytest
uvicorn importarr.main:app --reload
```
## Operations
Importarr intentionally does not document private deployment topology, hostnames, reverse proxies, monitoring, backups, or operator workflows in this repository. Keep those details in your own ops runbooks.
For a systemd install, prefer a normal package install from the checked-out repo over an editable install so the service user does not need read access to your development checkout.
If the service fails, standard systemd diagnostics are usually enough:
```sh
sudo systemctl --no-pager --full status importarr.service
sudo journalctl -u importarr.service -n 120 --no-pager
```
