FlexGet is a versatile command-line automation tool designed to manage your downloads.
It uses a flexible, rule-based configuration to automatically fetch content from various sources like RSS feeds, torrent trackers, and websites.
Based on your defined criteria, FlexGet filters and downloads the content, keeping your media library up-to-date.
It is primarily configured using a YAML configuration file where you define tasks consisting of sources, filters, and outputs, making it highly customizable to individual needs.
FlexGet runs as a daemon, continuously monitoring your sources and automatically downloading new content as it becomes available. It reduces manual effort and increases efficiency in acquiring desired media.

FlexGet requires a properly configured YAML file to operate. Understanding the syntax and available plugins is crucial for effective usage.

The primary method of configuring FlexGet is through a YAML file.
This file defines tasks, which specify the sources, filters, and outputs.
Each task can be customized with various plugins to achieve the desired behavior.

FlexGet's functionality is extended through plugins.
Plugins can be used to interact with various services, process data, and manage downloads.
Many community-developed plugins are available in addition to the core plugins.
