TorrentNG is a modern torrent management stack for headless power-user seeding at 10k-100k+ torrents and 200-500+ TB. This template runs torrentngd, TorrentNG's own first-party Rust BitTorrent client daemon, with its built-in WebUI, REST/SSE API, and qBittorrent-compatible API (for Prowlarr/Sonarr/Radarr/autobrr/cross-seed) all in one container. torrentngd owns torrent state, peer traffic, tracker state, storage, rechecks, jobs, and metrics directly -- it does not run or depend on rTorrent.
Use this template if you want a single self-contained TorrentNG install with no external torrent client. If you already run rTorrent, qBittorrent, Transmission, or Deluge and just want TorrentNG's WebUI/API in front of it instead, use the "TorrentNG WebUI" template.
FIRST RUN: torrentngd reads its settings from a config.toml file, not environment variables (this is intentional -- see the project's deployment docs). Before starting the container for the first time:
1. Create the appdata folder for Config below (e.g. /mnt/user/appdata/torrentng/config).
2. Either leave it empty to run with the packaged defaults (0.0.0.0:8080 WebUI, port 44444 for peer traffic, DHT on), or copy in a customized config.toml -- see deploy/native/config.toml in the TorrentNG repository for every field.
3. Set the "API Token" variable below to a random string; the container writes it to the path the packaged config already expects for authenticating the WebUI/API. Generate one with e.g. `openssl rand -hex 32` on any Linux box, or the Unraid terminal.
The image supports runtime PUID/PGID handling. This template defaults to Unraid's standard nobody:users identity, 99:100; the entrypoint prepares its small internal runtime directories and then drops to that non-root identity. Do not add an ExtraParams `--user` override: the entrypoint needs its short setup phase. Make sure the Data, Config, and State/DB appdata folders are owned by the selected PUID:PGID before first start. For the default paths shown below, use Unraid's Tools -> New Permissions on both `/mnt/user/downloads/torrentng` and `/mnt/user/appdata/torrentng`, or run from the Unraid terminal: `chown -R 99:100 /mnt/user/downloads/torrentng /mnt/user/appdata/torrentng`. The container never recursively chowns mounted download trees at startup.
