- read [ignored_tags] instead of [ignored_domains], so tag-based ignoring
actually works
- match ignored tags as whole tags, not substrings ('ipt' no longer matches
'iptorrents')
- send the login-error notification through the Pushover client instead of
the non-existent module-level send_message()
- handle an empty torrent list instead of raising IndexError before any
summary is sent
- tag a new torrent once instead of once per code path
- honour toml_path without DOCKER in AppriseClient
- close replaced log handlers so the file descriptor is released
Also add the missing [telemetry] section to config.toml.example, which
qbit-maid.py requires at startup.
The tests that pinned each bug now assert the fixed behaviour, and the
suite still reports 100% coverage.
Switch the summary to the layout jblu picked: each counter renders as
"emoji value label", grouped two per line and joined by a middle dot.
Scanned 42 torrents in 12s
🗑️ 7 removed · 👻 4 orphaned
⏭️ 5 ignored · 🐣 3 premature
🛡️ 10 protected · 🌐 20 public
- the value leads, so the numbers are the first thing the eye lands on
- html style now bolds the values instead of the labels
- "Non-protected" reads as "public", matching the non_protected_tag
- use_emoji now defaults to true; false gives the plain variant
- dry runs read "7 would be removed"
Pushover renders the notification body in a proportional font, so the
space-padded label/value columns never lined up on a phone — the body
collapsed into a ragged flat list with no visual grouping. The html
variant was worse: the padding sat inside the HTML, so it collapsed to a
single space.
Counters are now grouped two per line and joined with a middle dot, which
survives any font. The body drops from 8 lines to 5 and no longer restates
the outcome the title already carries.
- replace _notify_row/LABEL_WIDTH/VALUE_WIDTH with _stat_row
- add docs/notify-preview.py, which renders the real build_summary()
output as a phone-width PNG so layout changes can be reviewed visually
- tests: assert no space padding, two counters per row, and that the body
does not repeat the title
Rework the Pushover/Apprise summary so it reads as a report instead of a
dump of counters.
- Extract build_summary() as the single source of truth for both notifiers,
removing the duplicated body string and the stray leading indentation
caused by backslash line continuations.
- Add a 'format' option: 'plain' (aligned columns) or 'html' (bold labels,
sets html=1 for Pushover). Apprise always receives the plain body.
- Add 'use_emoji' for emoji-prefixed rows.
- Title now states the outcome ('7 torrents removed') instead of
'--- qbit-maid summary ---'.
- Say 'Would remove' when delete_torrents is false, so a dry run is never
mistaken for a real deletion.
- Format runtime as 12s / 1m 04s instead of a timedelta with microseconds.
- Add include_hostname, notify_on_empty, priority, sound, retry and expire.
- Log notification failures instead of letting them abort the run.
- Cover the new formatting with unit tests; document the options in the
README and config.toml.example.
- Add setup_logging() returning a named 'qbit-maid' logger with
RotatingFileHandler (configurable size/backups) and a console handler
- Add log_torrent() helper for structured torrent context
- Replace basicConfig-based tor_log() with setup_logging()
- Remove redundant 'if self.use_log:' guards across qbit-maid.py,
qlist.py, qprocess.py, qlogging.py (level filtering handles it)
- Document new logging options in config.toml.example and README
