Blitzcrank transfers files via rsync.

$ brew install rsync
Install on Debian:
$ sudo apt-get install rsync
Blitzcrank works best at pulling down torrents from a remote server. Manually finding torrents is SO 19th century. Automatically fetch torrents with systems like Sickbeard and CouchPotato, trust me, it's awesome.
Blitzcrank requires a small amount of setup. First, it mainly does transfers via ssh of a remote host and your local machine. In order to do so you'll have to have a yaml config file at ~/.blitzcrank.
$ cat ~/.blitzcrank
---
:base_tv_dir: "/Volumes/Public/TV Shows/"
:base_movie_dir: "/Volumes/Public/Movies/"
:remote_user: "root"
:remote_host: "subdomain.domain.tld"
:remote_base_dir: "~/torrents/"
This can be generated with Mana Barrier. If you would also like to limit the connection speed rsync uses, add :bwlimit: <kb/sec>. :bwlimit: 2000 would limit transfer speeds to 2000kb/second.
When transfering TV shows, they will be structured in the format of /<TV_BASE_DIR>/<SHOW_NAME>/<SEASON NUMBER>/<EPISODE>.mkv.
/Volumes/Public/TV\ Shows/
├── Pioneer One
│ ├── Season\ 1
├── SHOW2
│ ├── Season\ 1
│ ├── Season\ 2
│ ├── Season\ 3
│ └── Season\ 4
└─── SHOW3
├── Season\ 1
└── Season\ 2
Movies are all contained in a single directory, so a folder structure isn't required.
$ manabarrier
Mana Barrier will populate a sample config file if you do not have one already in place. The location for this is in ~/.blitzcrank.
$ rocketgrab
$ rocketgrab "search1"
$ rocketgrab "search1" "search 2" ...
Use rocketgrab to pull down remote files and sort them into local directories.
Overdrive is best suited for cron jobs and automated scheduling. It copies down any TV shows that match an existing folder, and any movies that are verified via IMDB.
