fix: report ratio_limit 0 so Sonarr removes completed torrents - #4
Merged
Conversation
Sonarr/Radarr send URL-encoded form data (not multipart) when adding magnet links. Check Content-Type and fall back to ParseForm when the request is not multipart, instead of unconditionally calling ParseMultipartForm.
… detection Covers uppercase Multipart/Form-Data and extra params (e.g. boundary), per upstream review feedback on PR MrJoiny#2.
…rrent Sonarr's HasReachedSeedLimit returns false when the torrent has no seed limit set, so for a debrid download (ratio 0, never seeds) it never marks the torrent as removable and copies instead of moving, then leaves it in the client forever. Reporting ratio_limit 0 with ratio 0 satisfies the first branch of HasReachedSeedLimit (0 - 0 <= 0.001) so Sonarr treats the completed torrent as past its seed goal and sends torrents/delete after import. Keeps state as pausedUP (which Sonarr recognizes) and adds the seeding_time field for completeness.

Summary
Sonarr never removed torrents from TorBoxarr after a successful import. The download would import (copied, since the staging and media volumes are separate filesystems) but then stay in Sonarr's client forever, and no
torrents/deletewas ever sent.Root cause is Sonarr's removal gate in
QBittorrent.csHasReachedSeedLimit: for a debrid download that reportsratio: 0and has no per-torrent seed limit set, the seed-limit check returns false, soCanBeRemovedis false and Sonarr never marks the torrent for removal.This reports
ratio_limit: 0alongsideratio: 0. InHasReachedSeedLimit, the first branch (RatioLimit >= 0) then evaluatesratio - ratioLimit <= 0.001→0 - 0 <= 0.001→ true, so the torrent is treated as past its seed goal and Sonarr sendstorrents/deleteafter import.seeding_timeis also reported (0) for completeness. State remainspausedUP, which Sonarr already recognizes.Test plan
POST /api/v2/torrents/deleteand the job is removed locally.torrents/delete→ local removal).Notes
This branch is based on top of #2 (multipart form-data fix); GitHub shows it stacking cleanly once #2 merges. The diff contains only the ratio_limit/seeding_time change.
