Magnetico VS torrentinim

This is really neat. I'll need to check it out. A couple years ago I ran my own instance of Magnetico (https://github.com/boramalper/magnetico), but this project looks a lot more polished.

This is likely your best bet, but I'd recommend you use postgres over sqlite, this is however where development died so some features like search or stats aren't implemented while using pg as the db.

You can create decentralized bittorrent indexers though (see https://github.com/boramalper/magnetico as an example)! This means you can search for bittorrent files without having to rely on a centralized service (although building the index does require some time & storage space of course).

Someone else did this a while back, universe continues to exist.

I just get a rickroll gif on your link. Did you mean this project?

"Autonomous (self-hosted) BitTorrent DHT search engine suite."

Although I admit, that I would love to see a maintained DHT search solution (like magnetico or dhtcrawler2).

Yeah, you probably found it. Abandoned, yes, but not necessarily unfinished.

A magnet search is easy enough to self-host, I can provide you with instructions to self-host a clearnet magnet search engine over I2P in the meantime, but you can probably figure it out from this: https://github.com/boramalper/magnetico which is an easy to self-host DHT search engine.

Check out my project Torrentinim for a popular but simple enough project if you want to taste what Nim is like.

It's easy to understand code.

Would love to try this. You should provide compiled assets for all major platforms. I don't know how to run this on a Windows machine.

Here's an example how I do it for my project: https://github.com/sergiotapia/torrentinim/blob/master/.gith...

And the releases: https://github.com/sergiotapia/torrentinim/releases

That appears to be a work in progress: https://github.com/sergiotapia/torrentinim/issues/2

Nice. If someone is looking for something less resource hungry, have a look at Torrentinim. It is the successor of Magnetissimo.

Nim's elevator pitch is looks like Python so it's easy to read/write, compiles down to C and then to native binaries, and runs so fast it'll make your head explode.

Here's a project I wrote in Nim that even if you've never even seen Nim before you would understand what's going on. https://github.com/sergiotapia/torrentinim
