Transmitter is a modern, lightweight alternative to Transmission's stock UI. Runs with zero external dependencies. Also Telegram bot integration.
- Torrent basics — sortable list (name, status, progress, size, speed, added date, ETA) with status filters, case-insensitive search, adding via magnet link or .torrent upload, and pause/resume/delete
- Notes — attach a custom text to any torrent (stored server-side in SQLite, shown in the list, the detail panel and the Telegram bot)
- Night Shift — mark torrents (moon-star button) to download and seed only inside a configured time window; outside the window they are paused
- Day Shift — the same, with its own label, window and a sun button; the two shifts are independent, a torrent may be marked for both
- Shift switches — each configured shift can be turned off in Settings → Shifts or from the Telegram bot (
/shifts); the state is stored server-side in SQLite, so it applies to every browser and survives a restart. While a shift is off its scheduler touches nothing: torrents keep their current state and the shift button is greyed out - Impact — how much a torrent gave back of what it took. A trophy marks the ones that uploaded 100% of their download, the «Not repaid» filter shows the rest (send them to a shift in bulk), and an optional switch stops a torrent once it reaches the target
- Support locales: en, ru, es, de
- Docker images: linux/amd64, linux/arm/v7, linux/arm64/v8
