### Lightweight BitTorrent Tracker Client & (Persistent) Server Implementation













### About

**OFFICIALLY VERSION 1!**

#### Example Use

See a working example [HERE](http://tracker.empire-js.us/stat)

Docker images:
* **REDIS** `oconnorct1/redis:latest`
* **NGINX** `oconnorct1/nginx:latest`
* **NODE** `oconnorct1/peer-tracker:latest`

#### Ingenuity

**The first of it's kind! A smart persistent Bittorent tracker.**

If one server crashes, the system will not fail.

Nginx will handle distributing the load.

Using a Redis server, memory will be stored intermittently to ensure speed and efficiency over memory, as some loss in peers is ok.

Paired with client software, this package is ready to go.

#### Functionality

* Scrape support
* **NEW** Multi-Scrape support!!!!
* WebSocket support
* Multi-server support
* Docker compatible
* NGinX ready

## Install

``` javascript
npm install peer-tracker

```

## Usage

**Server**
``` javascript
new Server();
```

Yep, literally that simple.
(Be sure to have a Redis instance running)

The server does take options, however:

``` javascript

let opts = {
port: 80 // Default
udpPort: 1337 // Default
docker: false // Default
}

new Server(opts);
```

**Client**
``` javascript
// Scrape one hash
let client = Client.udp("scrape", "0.0.0.0", 1337, 6688, "0123456789012345678901234567890123456789", 0, 0, 0);
// OR ws:
// Scrape multiple hashes:
let client = Client.ws("scrape", "0.0.0.0", 80, 6688, ["0123456789012345678901234567890123456789", "0123456789012345678901234567890123456789"], 0, 0, 0);

client.on("announce", (interval, leechers, seeders, addresses) => {
console.log("interval:", interval);
console.log("leechers:", leechers);
console.log("seeders:", seeders);
console.log("addresses:", addresses);
});

client.on("scrape", (seeders, completed, leechers) => {
console.log("seeders", seeders);
console.log("completed", completed);
console.log("leechers", leechers);
});

client.on("error", (err) => {
console.log("error:", err);
})

```

Client will auto-self-destruct upon completion.

`SERVER`

Server(opts);
* opts: Options

``` javascript
interface Options {
port: number;
udpPort: number;
docker: Boolean
}
```
