rd-dispatch

Overview

rd-dispatch is a proxy service that unrestricts and dispatches Real-Debrid downloads via a simple HTTP API and web UI.
Torrents are supported via magnet links and expose functionality to select files from multi-file torrents.
While Real-Debrid does not explicitly prohibit this usage, ensure compliance with their Terms of Service.

Installation

This will run the rd-dispatch service using Docker Compose.

services:
  rd-dispatch:
    image: whosmatt/rd-dispatch:latest
    container_name: rd-dispatch
    restart: unless-stopped
    ports:
      - "5001:5001"
    environment:
      REALDEBRID_TOKEN: TKT...
      ACCOUNTS: |
        user1:test
        user2:pass

Authentication & Guest links

All endpoints up to the 'Download Ready' page require HTTP Basic Auth. Any valid username:password in ACCOUNTS is accepted.
Once you reach a 'Download Ready' page, the URL itself is an encrypted guest link that can be accessed without authentication, valid for 24 hours. It can only be used to download the specific file chosen by the authenticated user.

Setting a static key

Guest links invalidate upon service restart due to the encryption key being rotated.
If you don't want this, set the environment variable GUEST_SECRET to a valid Fernet key:
python -c "from cryptography.fernet import Fernet; print(Fernet.generate_key().decode())".

Deployment

• For public access, use a reverse proxy (e.g., Caddy, Nginx) for SSL and IPv6.
• No persistent storage; all downloads are streamed.

Notes

• Designed for single-user, low-traffic use.
• Many actions are synchronous.
• Real-Debrid API rate limit of 250 requests/minute applies (but is unlikely to be hit).
• UI built with MonsterUI.
