experimental conversion of torrent files

Usage no npm install needed!

<script type="module">
  import dwebTorrent from 'https://cdn.skypack.dev/dweb-torrent';
</script>

README

Simple Torrent file hacker.

Usage

https://www-dweb-torrent.dev.archive.org/IDENTIFIER or https://www-dweb-torrent.dev.archive.org/IDENTIFIER_archive.torrent

The latter is so that it will have a filename that opens automatically in your torrent application.

Why

Archive Torrents are broken for any use in the web (e.g. WebTorrent)

  • Sit behind CORS
  • Have no ws trackers and archive trackers are http rather than https
  • Have a backup download link in http rather than https

What

Fix the torrent and output it

Used By

Being integrated into dweb-mirror and dweb-archive and dweb-archivecontroller repos as replacement for the torrent munging in dweb-gateway (the server on https://dweb.me).
