Prerequisites

• rTorrent 0.7.5 or newer
  • compiled with "--with-xmlrpc-c"
  • XMLRPC-C >= 1.00

Installation

Install the plugins, like any munin plugin (e.g.: create a symlink into /etc/munin/plugins), and open the /etc/munin/plugin-conf.d file. Create a section for the installed plugin, and insert the lines similar to the ones shown below:

[rtom_username_spdd]
user username
env.src socket
env.socket /home/username/torrent/.socket/rpc.socket
end.diff yes

or

[rtom_username_spdd]
env.ip 127.0.0.1
env.port 5000
env.diff yes

depending on what rTorrent configuration you have.

If you use more than one plugin for a user, you don't need to add a section for every plugin to your /etc/munin/plugin-conf.d file, you can use the following syntax:

[rtom_username_*]
user username
env.src socket
env.socket /home/username/torrent/.socket/rpc.socket
end.diff yes

or

[rtom_username_*]
env.ip 127.0.0.1
env.port 5000
env.diff yes

Also, if you don't want to monitor more than one user, the username is not mandatory, you can leave the filenames as they were, and use the following configuration:

[rtom__spdd]
user username
env.src socket
env.socket /home/username/torrent/.socket/rpc.socket
end.diff yes

or

[rtom__spdd]
env.ip 127.0.0.1
env.port 5000
env.diff yes

The * character can be used in this case too.

Configurable variables:

src	"socket" when using scgi_socket, or anything else when using scgi_port
socket	rTorrent's rpc socket (scgi_local)	using scgi_local	needed when "src" is set to "socket"
ip	rTorrent's ip address	using scgi_port	needed when "src" is NOT set to "socket"
port	rTorrent's scgi port (scgi_port)	using scgi_port	needed when "src" is NOT set to "socket"
diff	"yes" for displaying bps for upload and Bps for download, or anything else for using Bps for both	used by rtom_spd plugin
