radarr.py
Main interface for all Radarr operations.
Large results (movies, releases, queue, wanted) return metadata only. Full data saved to file.
# Search for movies (returns full results - typically small)
python3 radarr.py search "The Matrix" 1999
python3 radarr.py search "Interstellar"
# List library (returns count + path only)
python3 radarr.py movies # All movies
python3 radarr.py movies true # Monitored only
# Then grep the saved file to find specific movies
grep -i "hotel" /home/claude/radarr/movies_*.json
# Get movie details (returns full result)
python3 radarr.py movie 123
# Add movie by TMDB ID (get ID from search results)
python3 radarr.py add 603 # The Matrix
# Search for releases (returns count + path only)
python3 radarr.py releases 123
# Then grep for quality/size
grep -i "1080p\|bluray" /home/claude/radarr/releases_*.json
# Download a release
python3 radarr.py download "release-guid" 123
# Check download queue (returns count + path only)
python3 radarr.py queue
grep -i "title" /home/claude/radarr/queue_*.json
# Get wanted/missing movies (returns count + path only)
python3 radarr.py wanted
# System status (returns full result)
python3 radarr.py status

Typical Workflows
Check if a movie is in library
# 1. Fetch library (saves to file, returns count only)
python3 radarr.py movies
# 2. Grep the file for the movie
grep -i "hotel transylvania" /home/claude/radarr/movies_*.json
Find and add a movie
# 1. Search (returns full results)
python3 radarr.py search "Dune" 2021
# 2. Note the tmdb_id from results
# 3. Add it
python3 radarr.py add 438631
Check what's downloading
python3 radarr.py queue
# If items exist, grep for details
grep -i "title\|progress" /home/claude/radarr/queue_*.json
Find missing movies
python3 radarr.py wanted
grep -i "title" /home/claude/radarr/wanted_*.json
Manually grab a release
# 1. Get movie ID from library
python3 radarr.py movies
grep -i "movie name" /home/claude/radarr/movies_*.json | grep '"id"'
# 2. Search releases
python3 radarr.py releases 123
# 3. Find a good release
grep -i "1080p" /home/claude/radarr/releases_*.json | head -20
# 4. Download preferred release (get guid from grep output)
python3 radarr.py download "release-guid-here" 123
Notes
- Large results (movies, releases, queue, wanted) return metadata only - full data in file
- Small results (search, status, movie details, add) return full data
- Grep the saved files directly, don't pipe stdout
- TMDB IDs are used for adding movies (shown in search results)
- Movie IDs (internal Radarr IDs) are used for releases/details
- Quality profiles and root folders use Radarr defaults
- Files are timestamped, use
*.jsonglob to find latest
