.SH DESCRIPTION
.B opentracker
is a open and free bittorrent tracker. It aims for minimal resource usage
and is intended to run at WLAN router.
.B opentracker
basically is an http-server that collects all clients ip addresses
into pools sorted by one of the request strings parameters
and answers all other clients that specified this exact same parameter
a list of all other recent clients.
Utilizing the highly scalable server framework from libowfat,
opentracker can easily serve multiple thousands of requests
on a standard plastic WLAN-router, limited only by hardware.
.SH OPTIONS
The following command-line options are accepted by the server:
.IP "\-i \fIip\fP"
ip address to bind to. Default \- *, you may specify more than one.
.IP "\-p \fItcpport\fP"
tcp port to bind to. Default \- 6969, you may specify more than one.
.IP "\-P \fIudpport\fP"
udp port to bind to. Default \- 6969, you may specify more than one.
.IP "\-r \fIredirecturl\fP"
url where / should be redirected to. Default \- none.
.IP "\-d \fIdirectory\fP"
directory to try to chroot to. Default \- ".".
.IP "\-u \fIuser\fP"
user under whose priviliges opentracker should run. Default \- "nobody".
.IP "\-f \fIconfig\fP"
config file
.IP "\-A \fIip\fP"
ip address to sync from
.IP "\-w \fIfile\fP"
path to whitelist
.IP "\-b \fIfile\fP"
path to blacklist
.IP "\-s \fIlivesyncport\fP"
udp port to listen for incoming live sync packets. Default \- 9696.
.SH CONFIG
.IP listen.udp.workers
this statement determines if udp sockets are handled in the event
loop, when variable sets to 0 ( by default ), or are handled in blocking reads in
dedicated worker threads. You have to set this value before the listen.tcp_udp or
listen.udp, listen.tcp statements before it takes effect, but you can re-set it for each listen statement.
Normally you should keep it at the top of the config file.
Examples: 0, 1, 4
.IP listen.tcp_udp
this statement specifies ip address
.B opentracker
will listen on, using both, tcp and udp, ports.
Examples: 0.0.0.0, 192.168.0.1:80, 10.0.0.5:6969
.IP listen.tcp
this statement specifies ip address to listen on, using tcp ports only.
Examples: 0.0.0.0, 192.168.0.1:80, 10.0.0.5:6969
.IP listen.udp
this statement specifies ip address to listen on, using udp ports only.
Examples: 0.0.0.0, 192.168.0.1:80, 10.0.0.5:6969
.IP access.whitelist
this statement specifies path to file containing all torrent hashes that
.B opentracker
will serve.
File format is straight forward: "<hex info hash>\\n<hex info hash>\\n...".
.B opentracker
should be compiled with whitelist support ( option
.I DWANT_ACCESSLIST_BLACK
) to make this statement work.
.IP access.blacklist
this statement specifies path to file containing torrent hashes that
.B opentracker
will not serve.
File format is straight forward: "<hex info hash>\\n<hex info hash>\\n..."
.B opentracker
should be compiled with blacklist support ( option
.I DWANT_ACCESSLIST_BLACK
) to make this statement work.
.IP access.stats
this statement specifies ip address allowed to fetch stats.
.B opentracker
should be compiled with restrict stats support ( option
.I WANT_RESTRICT_STATS
) to make this statement work.
.IP access.stats_path stats
this statement allows obfuscate the path to stats.
It is located at /stats by default, but you can configure it to appear anywhere on your tracker.
.IP access.proxy
this statement specifies proxy ip address.
.B opentracker
should be compiled with ip from proxy support ( option
.I DWANT_IP_FROM_PROXY
) to make this statement work.
Examples: 192.168.0.1, 10.0.0.5
.IP livesync.cluster.listen
this statement specifies ip address and port for live sync.
The port is used to listen for incoming live sync packets.
The ip address specifies interface, on which
.B opentracker
will join the multicast group 244.0.42.23.
Note that two udp sockets will be opened. One on ip address 0.0.0.0
port 9696, that will join the multicast group 224.0.42.23 for incoming
udp packets, and one on specified ip address port 9696 for outgoing udp packets.
Also note, that one and only one ip address must be given.
.B opentracker
should be compiled with live sync support ( option
.I WANT_SYNC_LIVE
) to make this statement work.
Examples: 192.168.0.1, 10.0.0.5
.IP livesync.cluster.node_ip
sync between trackers running in a cluster is restricted to packets coming from trusted ip addresses, specified in this statement.
Examples: 192.168.0.1, 10.0.0.5
.IP batchsync.cluster.admin_ip
this statement specifies admin ip address for old style (HTTP based) asynchronus tracker syncing.
Examples: 192.168.0.1, 10.0.0.5
.IP tracker.rootdir
this statement specifies directory
.B opentracker
will chroot/chdir to. All black/white list files must be put in that directory.
.IP tracker.user
this statement specifies which user to setuid to.
.IP tracker.redirect_url
.B opentracker
can be told to answer to a "GET / HTTP"-request with a redirect to another location. This statement specifies such location in a form of url.
Examples: https://your.tracker.local/, http://10.0.0.5/
.IP persist.mode
this statement turns on persistence of memory data. On persistence mode "dump"
.B opentracker
will save torrents and peers information on disk. Persistence mode "null" turns persistence off.
.B opentracker
should be compiled with persistence support ( option
.I DWANT_PERSISTENCE
) to make this statement work.
.IP persist.file
this statement specifies which persist file to use.
.B opentracker
will load data from this file on startup.
Examples: /var/lib/storage.odb, /etc/opentracker/db.odb, ./file.odb
.IP persist.save
this statement controls frequency sync of persistent storage.
.B opentracker
will save the memory data if both the given number of seconds and the given number of change operations occurred. Format: <seconds> <changes>.
Examples: 900 1, 300 10, 60 10000
.SH NOTES
.B opentracker
currently supports only IPv4 with persistent storage.
.PP
If no listen option ( listen.tcp_udp, listen.tcp, listen.udp ) is given in
.IR config
or on the command line, opentracker listens on 0.0.0.0:6969 tcp and udp.
.PP
.B opentracker
doesn't provide blacklist and whitelist support simultaneously.
