Introduction

Jackett works as a proxy server that translates queries from applications (Sonarr, Radarr, SickRage, CouchPotato, Mylar3, Lidarr, DuckieTV, qBittorrent, Nefarious, NZBHydra2, etc.) into tracker-site-specific HTTP queries, parses the HTML or JSON response, and sends results back to the requesting software.

What Jackett does: - Acts as a bridge between your apps and torrent trackers - Provides recent uploads (similar to RSS feeds) - Performs searches across multiple trackers - Returns results in a standardized format (Torznab/TorrentPotato)

Key Features: - Single repository of maintained indexer scraping and translation logic - Removes the burden of tracker integration from other applications - Supports public, semi-private and private trackers - Implements the Torznab and TorrentPotato APIs
