Implementation of a Bittorrent Tracker for use in a SCION Network. SCION Bittorrent Client Implementation
This repository is a fork of crosbymichael/tracker
- HTTP based tracker
- inmemory and redis Registry
- Peers hold information about their SCION ISD (Isolation Domain) and AS (Autonomous System)
- HTTP 3 / QUIC based communication
You can use this by import the server package that implements http.Handler to use in your own
applications or use the binary bttracker to create a standalone bittorrent tracker.
You have the option to use an in-memory registry for keeping peer data or using a redis server for storing the peer data. You can always implement your own registry as well.
scionbttracker -h
