Torrust Index provides a highly optimized and scalable platform for organizing torrent metadata. With fast search capabilities and a robust backend powered by Rust, the index ensures efficient performance for even the most demanding use cases. Designed with privacy in mind, it allows users to manage their content freely while upholding strong data integrity principles.
Torrust Index is powered by SQLite and MySQL, leveraging Rust (Axum) for the REST API and Nuxt (VUE) for the frontend.
Compared to other torrent indexing solutions, Torrust Index offers a unique blend of speed, security, and scalability. By leveraging modern technologies like Rust and SQLite, it outperforms many competitors in resource efficiency and ease of use. Its open-source nature ensures transparency, allowing contributors to shape the future development of the platform based on community needs.
If you want to include your Index on the following tables or update data for any of them, please open a PR.
We have made the installation of the Index as easy and enjoyable as possible. First at all, offering different ways to run it. You can compile from sources or use the pre-built container images. We have also taken into consideration cloud environments, making it easy to deploy the index to multiple hosting providers (using either VMs or containers).
We have also taken into consideration cloud environments, making it easy to deploy the index to multiple hosting providers (using either VMs or containers). We run a demo site on Digital Ocean to collect direct feedback about how easy it is to manage the application on production. Our goal is to make sure sysadmins can:
Besides that, the application also provides two ways to inject the configuration, via TOML files or environment variables. We've make an extra effort to make it clear, easy to change and provide the admin concise error messages when is wrong.
Check the latest documentation for more details about installation and requirements.
You can easily build the Rust app with cargo.
git clone git@github.com:torrust/torrust-index.git \
&& cd torrust-index && cargo build --release \
&& mkdir -p ./storage/database
Then you can run it with:
You can use docker or podman to run the containerized application:
cd /tmp \
&& mkdir torrust-index \
&& cd torrust-index \
&& export USER_ID=1000 \
&& docker run -it \
--env USER_ID="$USER_ID" \
--publish 3001:3001/tcp \
--volume "$(pwd)/storage/index/lib":"/var/lib/torrust/index" \
--volume "$(pwd)/storage/index/log":"/var/log/torrust/index" \
--volume "$(pwd)/storage/index/etc":"/etc/torrust/index" \

Please refer to the official documentation to learn more about running the index with docker.
Torrust vision is to provide a good set of tools for the BitTorrent ecosystem. We know that this take a big effort and a long time. That's why we plan for the future. This is a summary of all things we are planning to implement.
