PROTECTION MODE NEEDS TO BE DISABLED FOR NETWORK DRIVES TO WORK

Transmission NAS addon for Home Assistant

The torrent client for Home Assistant with OpenVPN and Samba Share support.

Installation

The installation of this add-on is pretty straightforward and not different in comparison to installing any other Home Assistant add-on.

1. Add our Home Assistant add-ons repository to your Home Assistant instance.
2. Install the "Transmission NA" add-on.
3. Change the configuration files with the required values.
4. Start the "Transmission NA" add-on
5. Check the logs of the "Transmission NA" add-on to see if everything went well.
6. Click "OPEN WEB UI" to open the Transmission NA web interface.

Configuration

Note: Remember to restart the add-on when the configuration is changed.

Transmission add-on configuration:

log_level: info
authentication_required: false
username: 'your_username'
password: 'your_password'
openvpn_enabled: false
openvpn_config: ''
openvpn_username: ''
openvpn_password: ''
networkdisks:
  - //serverip/folder
cifsusername: 'your samba user'
cifspassword: 'password'

Option: log_level

The log_level option controls the level of log output by the addon and can be changed to be more or less verbose, which might be useful when you are dealing with an unknown issue. Possible values are:

• trace: Show every detail, like all called internal functions.
• debug: Shows detailed debug information.
• info: Normal (usually) interesting events.
• warning: Exceptional occurrences that are not errors.
• error: Runtime errors that do not require immediate action.
• fatal: Something went terribly wrong. Add-on becomes unusable.

Please note that each level automatically includes log messages from a more severe level, e.g., debug also shows info messages. By default, the log_level is set to info, which is the recommended setting unless you are troubleshooting.

Option: authentication_required

This option can be used to password protect the web-ui.

Option: username

The username for authentication.

Option: password
