Installation

mithrandir install prowlarr

Prowlarr automatically installs Byparr as a companion service for bypassing Cloudflare-protected indexers. Older installs may have FlareSolverr instead; it keeps working and isn't removed.

Auto-Configuration

When installed via the setup wizard, Prowlarr is automatically configured with the provided username and password. It also registers the *Arr stack as applications in Prowlarr (Sonarr, Radarr, Lidarr) and adds Byparr as an indexer proxy named Byparr with the tag byparr.

WARNING

Do not set qBittorrent as the download client for in Prowlarr. This will be done in Radarr, Sonarr, and Lidarr directly.

Setup

• Go to the Prowlarr webUI and set the authentication method to "Forms" and configure the username and password with the values you set during the setup wizard.
• In Settings → Apps add Radarr, Sonarr and Lidarr as applications. The API keys for each app can be found in Settings → General.
• Some indexers are behind a Cloudflare captcha. The setup wizard and mithrandir install byparr already add a Byparr indexer proxy (in Settings → Indexers) with the tag byparr. Add the byparr tag to every indexer that requires a captcha. If the proxy is missing, see Byparr to add it manually or to switch an existing FlareSolverr proxy.
• Add indexers in order to be able to find torrents for the desired content.
