trakker.go

in-memory tracker-list server for p2p

what/why?

trouble finding trackers for a torrent?

scrounging the internet for tracker lists?

manually cleaning up your trackers for unresolved host-names, and refused connections?

trakker.go aims to provide a free-to-use server, which helps you overcome all those problems. how? simple. By providing a service, where anon can add a tracker to the server, and anon can get a list of all trackers available on the server.

whenever anon tells trakker.go to add a tracker, it checks if the tracker is already present, and helps prevent duplicate entries.

whenever anon wants a list of trackers, a utorrent-compatible tracker list is generated for easy copy-pasting.

endpoints

/add?url=<url>: add a tracker url
