[Question][Not a Bug] Is it possible to automatically export the .torrent file alongside downloaded data files upon torrent completion?

NOT A BUG

---

Goals

• I want to keep my .torrent files organized 'side-by-side` with the associated data files

Why?

• This helps with organization purposes and managing seeding using self-created tools
• Its good for many users for a variety of reasons to keep the .torrent files easily accessible (without using the BiglyBT client) with the associated data files.

Example Structure - Download Complete

/completed-torrents/ <-- Root for Downloaded Torrents /completed-torrents/<my-torrent-name>/ <-- Downloaded torrent creates a new sub-directory

Example Structure for associating .torrent with data files /completed-torrents/<my-torrent-name>/<my-torrent-name>.torrent /completed-torrents/<my-torrent-name>/<my-torrent-name>DataFiles/

Question

Without using external scripts, is there a way to automatically export the .torrent file alongside the downloaded data files upon torrent download completion?

You can configure BiglyBT to "move on complete" at various levels (global, tag, per-download)

The global one is under "Options->Files->Completion Moving: Move completed files (after download)"

There is an option there to also move the .torrent file.

However none of them will add an extra folder as per your request, rather they all end up in the level above. Of course there are potential issues with name conflicts, both with the existing scheme and your one.

Beta B17 has a new option in the completion moving config to add a sub-directory. You would need to configure both the download data and the torrent file to be moved to the same location and then enable that option. The result won't be quite as in your example but will end up with

<move to folder>\<download name>\blahblah.torrent <move to folder>\<download name>\<download data>
