ripalt: An Anti-Leech Torrent Tracker

Overview

ripalt is a private Bittorrent Tracker CMS based on actix-web

Features

Nothing special yet. Plain old Torrent tracking.

Requirements

• Rust nightly (2018-05-10)
• PostgreSQL

Additional Build Requirements

• libsass

Browser Requirements

• Any Browser which supports ES6.
  • That means no Internet Explorer.

Installation

Get the source and compile it

Clone the repositry

git clone https://github.com/fuchsi/ripalt.git
cd ripalt
git submodule update --init

Build ripalt

cargo build
# or for release builds (might take a while)
cargo build --release

Setup

Create a .env file in the ripalt directory.

RUST_LOG="actix=warn,actix_web=info,ripalt=info"
DATABASE_URL="postgres://user:password@localhost/database"

The file should at least contain the DATABASE_URL.

Copy the config/ripalt.toml.example to config/ripalt.toml and change it to your needs and settings.

Install diesel_cli and apply the migrations

cargo install diesel_cli --no-default-features --features "postgres"
diesel migration run

Initialize the categories and groups:

psql user database -f doc/sql/categories.sql
psql user database -f doc/sql/groups.sql

Substitute user and database for your chosen settings.

Note: At the current state there is no initialization for additional tracker data, such as

• ACL
• Default User(s)

You'll have to create them on your own and update the ripalt.toml file for the created data.

Usage

Run ripalt

cargo run ripalt
# or
target/debug/ripalt
# or for release builds
target/release/ripalt

and navigate your Browser to http://localhost:8081, or whatever you set in the config.
