aquatic: high-performance open BitTorrent tracker

CI

High-performance open BitTorrent tracker, consisting of sub-implementations for different protocols:

Name Protocol OS requirements
aquatic_udp BitTorrent over UDP Unix-like
aquatic_http BitTorrent over HTTP, optionally over TLS Linux 5.8 or later
aquatic_ws WebTorrent, optionally over TLS Linux 5.8 or later

Features at a glance:

  • Multithreaded design for handling large amounts of traffic
  • All data is stored in-memory (no database needed)
  • IPv4 and IPv6 support
  • Supports forbidding/allowing info hashes
  • Prometheus metrics
  • Automated CI testing of full file transfers
