Requires Docker, a Real Debrid account, and Prowlarr configuration with torrent indexers, an optional OMDB API key improves search accuracy.
Torrentio-Scraper is a tool that adds torrent-based streaming sources to Stremio, a popular media streaming app. When you search for a movie or show in Stremio, this addon finds available torrent streams and connects them through a debrid service like Real Debrid, so you can watch without dealing with torrents directly. Under the hood, it uses Prowlarr to search multiple torrent sites in real time, then caches results in a database and in Redis (a fast in-memory cache) so repeat searches are instant. When you pick something to watch, it first checks what it already has stored. If not enough results come back, it fires off a live search through Prowlarr and saves those results for next time. An admin panel lets you generate API keys so only authorized users can access your addon. This is designed for people who already use Stremio with a Real Debrid account and want their own self-hosted source of streams rather than relying on a public addon. For example, if you run a small media setup for yourself, family, or friends and want control over which torrent indexers are searched, this gives you that. The API key system means you can hand out access selectively. The project is built as a Docker Compose stack, which means everything you need launches together with one command. It bundles PostgreSQL for storage, Redis for caching, Prowlarr for searching, and the addon itself. This makes deployment straightforward but assumes some familiarity with running services on a server. The tradeoff is more control and privacy compared to public addons, at the cost of setting up and maintaining your own infrastructure. An optional OMDB API key can improve search accuracy by helping the addon correctly identify movie and show titles, which makes the Prowlarr searches more precise.
