The `rtorrent` platform allows you to monitor your downloads with [rTorrent](https://rakshasa.github.io/rtorrent/) from within Home Assistant and setup automations based on the information.
To enable this sensor, add the following lines to your `configuration.yaml`:
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
sensor:
- platform: rtorrent
url: "http://<user>:<password>@<host>:<port>/RPC2"
monitored_variables:
- 'current_status'
- 'download_speed'
- 'upload_speed'
- 'all_torrents'
- 'stopped_torrents'
- 'complete_torrents'
- 'uploading_torrents'
- 'downloading_torrents'
- 'active_torrents'
```
This sensor requires the rTorrent XML-RPC API exposed on an HTTP interface.
Note that for security reasons, simply using the SCGI interface (default `localhost:5000`) of rTorrent won't work.
The [official reference](https://github.com/rakshasa/rtorrent/wiki/RPC-Setup-XMLRPC) describes how to set up that HTTP interface.
Alternatively, the [arch-rtorrentvpn](https://github.com/binhex/arch-rtorrentvpn) container can be used with `url` set to `http://admin:rutorrent@127.0.0.1:9080/RPC2`.
