Like modal text editors such as Vim, there are several modes. Each have their own keybinds, which can be found out by pressing F1
or ?
while in that mode. Some of the important ones are:
- hjkl or arrow keys for general navigation
- / or i to search
- Ctrl-s to change sources
- d to change download client
- c to change category
- s to change sort (S for reverse sort)
- f to change filter
- t to change theme
- n, p or l, h for next and previous page
- q to quit
For a list of all modes and their respective keybinds, check Keybinds on the wiki.
If either nyaa.si
or torrentgalaxy
is not accessible in your region, try one of the proxies (nyaa proxies, TorrentGalaxy proxies). Once you find one that works, replace the value for base_url
in the source config with the working proxy url. For nyaa
, I would recommend nyaa.land
, as it is very compatible, and usually working. Here's what the config for nyaa.land
would look like:
[source.nyaa]
base_url = 'nyaa.land'
If you have your own proxy setup, you use it by adding:
request_proxy = "localhost:8118"
to the top of your config. Replace the value with the IP and port for your proxy.
The location of the config file for linux is:
~/.config/nyaa/config.toml
and on windows is
C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\nyaa\config\config.toml
theme = "Default" # the theme to use by default
default_source = "Nyaa" # the source to use by default
download_client = "qBittorrent" # the download client to use by default
date_format = "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M" # date format for results (unset by default)
request_proxy = "localhost:8118" # request proxy for sending requests through (unset by default)
timeout = 30 # request timeout for sources and clients (measured in seconds)
scroll_padding = 6 # scroll padding for results table
save_config_on_change = true # save config when changing sources/themes
[source.nyaa]
# ...
[source.torrentgalaxy]
# ...
[client.cmd]
# ...

theme

, TorrentGalaxy
, or Sukebei
. Each source has its own configuration. Check the wiki for more information on each sources config.

By default, nyaa uses OSC52 to copy to the clipboard. It's a type of ANSI escape sequence supported by most terminals. The state of support for some popular terminals are:
Terminal | OSC52 support |
---|---|
alacritty | yes |
contour | yes |
far2l | yes |
foot | yes |
gnome terminal (and other VTE-based terminals) | not yet |
hterm | yes |
iterm2 | yes |
kitty | yes |
konsole | not yet |
qterminal | not yet |
rxvt | yes |
st | yes (but needs to be enabled, see here) |
terminal.app | no, but see workaround |
tmux | yes |
urxvt | yes (with a script, see here) |
wezterm | yes |
windows terminal | yes |
xterm.js (Hyper terminal) | yes |
zellij | yes |
Source: vim-oscyank
If your terminal is not supported, you should disable OSC52 by adding
[clipboard]
osc52 = false
to your config.toml
. This will make nyaa use an alternative method for copying, such as X11 selections or wl-clipboard. To see more info on clipboards, check the wiki;
