-Deluge (Torrents) 
- 
-Deluge is a slid torrent daemon. After having some issues with Transmission, i decided to give Deluge a try. 
- 
-First of all, emerge it: 
- 
- > emerge -vp deluge 
- 
-Let it build and install, then you want to move deluge folder as usual under /data/daemons: 
- 
- > mv /var/lib/deluge /data/daemons 
- 
-then you need to fix the new path in deluged config file, so edit /etc/conf/deluged and fix DELUGED_HOME. You also want to fix the group and umask for deluged so that the *Arr's will be able to move downloaded files. All in all, your delgued config file should look like: 
- 
-DELUGED_USER="deluge:media" 
-DELUGED_UMASK="0002" 
-DELUGED_OPTS="-p 58846" 
-DELUGED_HOME="/data/daemons/deluge" 
- 
-you might also want to play with the port (option -p). Note you will need to run deluged as group media and set the umask to 0002. 
- 
-Deluge comes with two pieces of software: the daemon itself and the nice web GUI. You also need to tweak the gui setup, so edit /etc/conf.d/deluge-web to reflect the change in the deluge data folder: 
- 
-DELUGE_WEB_USER="deluge:deluge" 
-DELUGE_WEB_HOME="/data/daemons/deluge" 
- 
-for the web GUI there is no need to change the group owenship, but you want to disable login since you will be using the reverse proxy approach later on, so after you start deluge-web the first time (see below) stop it and finish configuring it by editing /data/daemons/deluge/.config/deluge/web.conf (note that this file will be created only after the web gui is started for the first time!). Edit it to change the interface parameter to bind to 127.0.0.1. The relevant changed line will be: 
- 
-     "interface": "127.0.0.1", 
- 
-then save the file and restrat the web ui. 
- 
-Since Gentoo default deluge installation will NOT make deluge part of the media group, you need to add it to the media group as well. 
- 
-Now, fire up the two services: 
- 
- > rc-update add deluged default 
- > rc-update add deluge-web default 
- > /etc/init.d/deluged start 
- > /etc/init.d/deluge-web start 
- 
-and point your web browser to 127.0.0.1:8112 to access deluge web gui. Here you need to enable at least the labels plugin. You will then need to head to 
-Prowlarr and add deluge as new download manager. 
- 
- 
-In order to be able for the *Arr's to fetch deluge downloads, you need to make the donwload folder accessible to the media group: 
- 
- > chgrp media /data/daemons/deluge 
-
