Cardigann - Bytesized Hosting Wiki
Cardigann is a replacement for Jackett, used as a Torznab wrapper to search torrent sites that aren&#39t supported in Sickrage/Sickbeard/Sonarr etc.
Install Cardigann, login, and you will see the following things:
Top right: your API key, you will need this to attach to your PVR software.
Middle: Add Indexer dropdown box.
Add a few indexers, some dont need usernames and passwords to function. Once you have a few setup, you will see a list of your indexers, with the feed, state and actions.
You can either attach one indexer at a time to your PVR, or you can use the &quotall indexers&quot feed.
To add a Cardigann proxy to your PVR software, you want to add a new custom Torznab entry.
Name it whatever you like, and input your feed url, and your API key. Note, due to a bug in Cardigann, it will list the full url for any feed except for the &quotAll indexers&quot feed. All indexers will show up as &quot/torznab/aggregate&quot You simply need to append that to your servers url and port, as seen in the full tracker url&#39s.
Here is an example I setup for The Pirate Bay:
http://{MY SERVER ADDRESS}:{MY PORT}/torznab/thepiratebay
Here is an example of the All indexers
http://{MY SERVER ADDRESS}:{MY PORT}/torznab/aggregate
