It downloads files from Usenet based on NZB metadata and is commonly run through a web interface, service setup, Docker container, NAS package, or automation stack. ### Projektgeschichte The original NZBGet project was maintained for years by hugbug and distributed through SourceForge and GitHub-era project sites. SourceForge describes it as a C++ Usenet downloader designed for maximum download speed with very little system resources, suitable for PCs, NAS devices, WLAN routers, and media players. The original GitHub repository was archived on 2022-11-18. The nzbget.com fork was created on 2023-07-19 and its README states that it continues the original work formerly maintained by hugbug, with respect for the long-time maintainer and for the benefit of the Usenet community. ### Adoptionsgeschichte NZBGet has persisted because it fits automation-heavy Usenet workflows: low-resource downloader, web UI, post-processing, extension scripts, API access, and deployment on always-on NAS or container hosts. The nzbget.com README lists releases or packages for Windows, macOS, Linux, FreeBSD, Docker, Synology, ASUSTOR, QNAP, TrueNAS SCALE, and Android. Homebrew reported stable version 26.2 and 1041 installs over the 365-day analytics window queried on 2026-07-01. That understates total use because much of NZBGet's audience installs via Docker, NAS package repositories, Linux packages, or direct binaries rather than Homebrew. ### Wie es verwendet wird Typical users configure one or more Usenet servers, set watched NZB directories or web/API ingestion, and integrate NZBGet with media automation tools such as Sonarr and Radarr. The modern documentation and README emphasize extensions, post-processing scripts, queue/scan/feed scripts, performance tips, and migration from NZBGet v21 or older. ### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren NZBGet is significant as a long-lived infrastructure-style downloader that survived upstream abandonment through a community continuation fork. For package maintainers, the important history is the switchover from the archived nzbget/nzbget lineage to nzbgetcom/nzbget, plus the broad platform matrix that makes release packaging a central part of the project. ### Zeitleiste - 2008-02-01: SourceForge still lists NZBGet 0.3.1 files, showing the project's older pre-GitHub distribution history. - 2022-11-18: original nzbget/nzbget GitHub repository archived, according to GitHub issue/search pages. - 2023-07-19: nzbgetcom/nzbget repository created. - 2026-07-01: Homebrew formula API reported stable version 26.2. ### Related projects - nzbget/nzbget original repository - nzbgetcom/nzbget continuation fork - Sonarr - Radarr - SABnzbd - LinuxServer.io Docker images ### Quellen - - - - - - - - - ## Sicherheitshinweise formula declares a Homebrew service. - **Geiger-Risiko:** orange / mittel - formula declares a Homebrew service ## Andere Paketmanager-Einträge - Debian apt - nzbget - 21.0+dfsg-4+b1: normalized package name match | Debian stable package indexes: nzbget from https://deb.debian.org/debian/dists/stable/main/binary-amd64/Packages.xz | command-line based binary newsgrabber for nzb files | https://nzbget.net - Nix - nzbget: normalized package name match | nixpkgs package indexes: pkgs/by-name/nz/nzbget/package.nix from https://api.github.com/repos/NixOS/nixpkgs/git/trees/master?recursive=1 - Ubuntu apt - nzbget - 21.0+dfsg-4build2: normalized package name match | Ubuntu 24.04 LTS package indexes: nzbget from https://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/noble/universe/binary-amd64/Packages.gz | command-line based binary newsgrabber for nzb files | https://nzbget.net - apk - nzbget - 26.0-r0: normalized package name match | Alpine Linux edge package indexes: nzbget from https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/community/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz | Usenet downloader | https://nzbget.com - apk - nzbget-openrc - 26.0-r0: normalized package name match | Alpine Linux edge package indexes: nzbget-openrc from https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/community/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz | Usenet downloader (OpenRC init scripts) | https://nzbget.com - pacman - nzbget - 26.2-2: normalized package name match | Arch Linux sync databases: nzbget from https://geo.mirror.pkgbuild.com/extra/os/x86_64/extra.db.tar.gz | Efficient usenet downloader | https://nzbget.com - MacPorts - nzbget: normalized package name match | MacPorts ports tree: net/nzbget/Portfile from https://api.github.com/repos/macports/macports-ports/git/trees/master?recursive=1 - winget - nzbget.nzbget: normalized package name match | Windows Package Manager source index: nzbget.nzbget from https://cdn.winget.microsoft.com/cache/source.msix ## Combined YAML source View the package source record on GitHub.
