# Local test instances Radarr, Sonarr and SABnzbd in containers (same versions as the author's setup), pre-wired together: fixed dev API keys, root folders `/media/movies` and `/media/tv`, and SABnzbd registered as the download client in both (categories `radarr` / `sonarr`). ```sh dev/up.sh # start + configure (idempotent); needs docker/podman compose go run ./cmd/arr-tui --config dev/config.json docker compose -f dev/compose.yaml down # stop; state lives in dev/data (gitignored) ``` | Service | URL | Port | |---|---|---| | Radarr | http://127.0.0.1:17878 | 17878 | | Sonarr | http://127.0.0.1:18989 | 18989 | | SABnzbd | http://127.0.0.1:18080 | 18080 | No indexers or Usenet servers are configured, so nothing actually downloads. To get something into the SABnzbd queue, upload any NZB: ```sh curl -F name=@some.nzb -F cat=radarr \ "http://127.0.0.1:18080/api?mode=addfile&output=json&apikey=devsabnzbdapikey0000000000000000" ``` Metadata lookups (search) need internet access, since Radarr/Sonarr query their cloud metadata services. To get an item into the Radarr (or Sonarr) queue as well, add a movie to Radarr, serve an NZB from the host and push it as a release. Containers reach the host as `host.containers.internal`: ```sh python3 -m http.server 19191 --bind 0.0.0.0 & # directory containing some.nzb curl -H "X-Api-Key: devradarrapikey00000000000000000" -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \ -d '{"title":"The.Matrix.1999.1080p.BluRay.x264-DEV","downloadUrl":"http://host.containers.internal:19191/some.nzb","protocol":"usenet","publishDate":"2026-01-01T00:00:00Z"}' \ http://127.0.0.1:17878/api/v3/release/push ``` ## Interactive search without a real indexer `dev/fake-indexer.py` is a tiny Newznab indexer that returns a fixed set of releases for "The Matrix (1999)" and "Breaking Bad"; Radarr/Sonarr still do their own parsing and approve/reject decisions. Its NZBs are dummies, so grabbed releases just sit in the SABnzbd queue. ```sh python3 dev/fake-indexer.py & # listens on :19292 dev/add-indexer.sh # registers it in the dev Radarr and Sonarr ``` Add the movie / series to the dev instances first (e.g. from the TUI), then press `i` on it. To test with a real indexer, add it in the dev Radarr/Sonarr web UI (Settings, Indexers) instead of pasting credentials anywhere else.
