Transmission

BitTorrent daemon, primarily for downloading ZIM archives for kiwix.

Quick Reference

Property	Value
URL	https://torrent.ops.eblu.me
Tailscale URL	https://torrent.tail8d86e.ts.net
Namespace	`torrent`
Image	`registry.ops.eblu.me/blumeops/transmission`
Storage	NFS PVC from [[sifaka

Storage Layout

NFS share on sifaka (/volume1/torrents):

Path	Purpose
`/downloads/`	Active downloads and metadata
`/downloads/complete/`	Completed downloads
`/config/`	Transmission configuration
`/watch/`	Watch directory for .torrent files

kiwix reads from /downloads/complete/ to serve ZIM archives.

Integration with Kiwix

The Kiwix deployment includes a torrent-sync sidecar that:

Reads ZIM torrent list from ConfigMap
Adds missing torrents via RPC
Runs on startup and every 30 minutes

When downloads complete, the zim-watcher CronJob detects new ZIMs and restarts Kiwix.

Monitoring

Basic uptime via blackbox probe in alloy k8s (Services Health dashboard).

Web UI shows: active/seeding/paused counts, speeds, disk usage.

kiwix - ZIM archive consumer
sifaka - Download storage
