# Perséphone

Perséphone is a Web UI that allows you to search torrents on multiple torrent websites. It can then send the desired torrents to your favorite BitTorrent client's Web UI.

## TODO

* Add more search engines.

* ~~Implement a more efficient data transfer API. (right now it's very inefficient)~~

* Chase down possible memory leaks as this is likely to run for long periods of time.

* Create a settings angular page allowing to tweak the UI and behavior of the application.

* Reduce memory footprint as much as possible.

* Add the ability to pause/resume/purge searches.

* Create init scripts for various operating systems and init systems.

* Create bridges to BitTorrent clients Web UIs.

* Implement sessions/logins.

* Add `https` support.

* Create a better README with screenshots and features description.

*Those TODOs aren't in priority order.*

## Installation procedure

Make sure you have nodejs 0.10 and npm installed.

* Clone the repo `git clone https://github.com/SBSTP/persephone.git`.

* Checkout the right tag (version) `git checkout v0.0.0`.

* Install the dependencies `npm install`.

* `node app.js` should start Perséphone.

Also, startup script (for debian based operating systems) is available in the `tools` folder.

* Set the `DAEMON_ARGS` variable to the `path/to/app.js`.

* Set the `USER` variable to the name of the user who should own the daemon.

* Once you're done, copy `persephone.sh` to `/etc/init.d/persephone`.

* make it executable, `sudo chmod 755 /etc/init.d/persephone`.

* register it, `sudo update-rc.d persephone defaults`.

Perséphone should now boot when you start your computer. You can manually control persephone with the `sudo service persephone (start|stop|restart)` command.
