📝 Provide a clear and concise description of the issue.

There seems to be a problem with the bitmagnet script. When it asks you for your TMDB key, it doesn't actually allow you to enter it. If you do paste in your key (it 'overwrites' other text in the window, so it's unknown if it's actually capturing your input at all), it doesn't save it anywhere. No config file is created in any location including the 2 locations listed in on script page and the program only runs on 100% defaults including the default public TMDB key that is rate-limited.

Can someone please look into both of these issues?

Once they are resolved, I'd like to point the database to a file on a bind-mount location since the database can take many many gigabytes as it grows... but I need an actual config file before I can do that.

🔄 Steps to reproduce the issue.

Run the script. When it asks for API key, try to enter one. Notice that it doesn't save it anywhere.

Its not a bug in the script itself, we are doing some changes on the backend part of the repo. Will be fixed tomorrow after the changes get pushed to the main repo. Just wait until tomorrow if possible

I prepare the big pr tomorrow, other contributor need to check it, because its an really big change. So in next 1-2 days should be done, you can use in the Meantime the Same call above but with ProxmoxVED instead of ProxmoxVE, this should work

Ah maybe tremor has remove it (Speedy Gonzales)

[tremor021]

Yea i removed it sadly...

[samwathegreat]

Unfortunately, this is still broken. @MickLesk @tremor021 Can you please re-open? It won't let me do it.

When I run the script now, it DOES allow me to enter my API key, but it still isn't creating the config file. And it's ignoring the API key that I input and using the default (rate limited) api key. Same exact symptoms as my original post, except that now it does actually allow you to ENTER the api key, but it just does nothing with it....

I'd be happy to provide whatever info is requested. VERY EASILY REPRODUCIBLE, though.

Thanks in advance.

There is no config file, there never was. API key is written in service file environment statement

@tremor021 Why is it still using the default key, then? Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

[samwathegreat]

The script page says that there should be a config file...
