magnetissimo VS Magnetico

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

also Magnetissimo https://github.com/sergiotapia/magnetissimo

implemented using Elixir and Phoenix. Cool little project

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.

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."

https://github.com/boramalper/magnetico

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

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.

> you can passively collect info from the DHT swarm and build up an index over time

For anyone wanting to pursue this, I feel like I can share, I used this recently https://github.com/boramalper/magnetico, people share database dumps regular. I found ~4 dumps and merged them for ~1x,xxx,xxx entries.

Magnetico[1] is an easy-to-use, self-hosted DHT crawler. It has a web UI that shows statistics and gives you a search engine (it uses sqlite full-text search).

It needs quite a bit of bandwidth and some storage space, but worked well so far, for me. I've been running it for a couple of years and it indexed around 12.5M torrents (36GB of uncompressed database).

I'm using magnetico (https://github.com/boramalper/magnetico), a selfhosted bittorrent DHT scraper. After a few months of running I now have a little bit under 1M magnets in a ~3G database. SQLite is useful not just because I can query it with the full power of a relational database, but because I'm using its FTS capability for searching.

If I had to install a typical database or some search engine I would never have used it. It is more than enough for what I'm using it for.
