Monitarr

Monitarr is a lightweight web tool that queries Sonarr and Radarr APIs and presents a simple status page showing current downloads and queue progress. It is implemented as a small Next.js app written in TypeScript and intended for easy local or container deployment.

Key Features

• Uses Sonarr and Radarr APIs to fetch download queue and item progress
• Simple single-page Next.js UI for quick visibility into active downloads
• Provides a manual refresh action that triggers a Sonarr/Radarr refresh job and re-fetches data
• Supports hosting on a subpath (BASE_PATH) for reverse proxy setups
• Distributed as a Docker image for easy deployment; can also be built and run with yarn

Use Cases

• Provide end users a read-only view of their requested media download progress without granting access to Sonarr/Radarr web UI
• Quick local dashboard for admins to monitor active downloads and queue status across Sonarr and Radarr

Limitations and Considerations

• No built-in authentication or access control; it must be run in a trusted or protected network environment
• Download speed calculation is noted by the author as inaccurate
• Minimal feature set: no history, user accounts, or advanced filtering; primarily a simple, immediate-status view

Monitarr is best suited for users who want a very small, easy-to-run dashboard for Sonarr/Radarr download visibility. It focuses on simplicity and quick deployment rather than advanced functionality.
