Note:

• This project started as a personal project to learn about react and docker. This was my first time working with react so the code might not be the best, I have certainly learned a lot from this project and maintaining or updating it is just too much work for me, so I have decided to open source it.

• I have been using qBittorrent for a long time now, but I always felt that it was missing something, I wanted to be able to stream the content from my server remotely, so I decided to build this application.

• Currently this project sends a get request at fixed intervals to get the updates, that's not the best way to do it, I will be using web sockets to get real time updates.

• The libtorrent module in this repository is now updated to use more connection threads, so that the download speed is increased (Make sure to use full magnet uri which also includes the trackers).

There are lot of times when you want to access the specific content of a torrent file but don't want to waste bandwidth on downloading the entire file, this can be solved by downloading the file on a remote server and then browsing through the files.

• With remote file browsing / download support
• Optimized for both web and mobile views, responsive layout
• Built using Next.js and Fast API ⚡

A mobile first UI design so that you can enjoy the content seamlessly, Inspired by trending designs on Dribble.

List of commonly used resources that I find helpful are listed in the acknowledgements.

The application is containarized so that you don't need to go through the hassle of installing dependencies, tech stack used to built this application is listed below.

• Fast API
• Libtorrent
• Next.js
• Mongodb
• Docker

This project is focused to run on server environment hence docker containers are used to deploy the application.

• Ubuntu18.04+

• Docker

2. Clone the repo

   git clone https://github.com/algofly-oss/autolycus.git

3. Create .env file inside the project root folder, add the following to it (refer env.example)

   cp env.example .env

4. Run the containers

   sudo docker compose up

• When you run the application for the very first time It will ask you to login, you can signup for a new account and login with the credentials.

  

• Once logged in you can paste any valid torrent magnet link into the Add Magnet input field and it will start downloading the torrent file.
