Convenient torrentokachalkal managed through the web and android for a dedicated server
Preamble
In this article, I want to tell you how to make a universal torrent-based control via the Internet from both the web interface and the Android application.
Here we will talk about setting up the rtorrent + rutorrent + nginx + php-fpm + transdroid bundle on Debian Wheezy. I will immediately answer the question why not transmission, firstly with a large number of distributions / downloads, it falls, secondly it is poorly customized and does not have plug-ins for automating the search and downloading of new products, and I personally just don’t like it.
In the case of rtorrent, the version from the repository is compiled without xmlrpc-c, so I’m going to have to rebuild it myself, the official project documentation contains only the configuration option with apache, which didn’t fit all the difficulties and their solution will be described below.
I will try as much as possible to comment on all the settings and configs, so that you can understand how the system works, and not engage in a blunt copy-paste.
I hope the owners of their own NAS and dedicated servers will be interesting.
For convenience, I bring all commands from under root, without using sudo.
There will be few pictures, mostly commands and explanations, for the fastest reproduction of the configuration.
Set up required repositories.
In /etc/apt/sources.list add:
# . deb http://www.deb-multimedia.org stable main non-free # php mysql deb http://packages.dotdeb.org wheezy all deb-src http://packages.dotdeb.org wheezy all # nginx deb http://nginx.org/packages/debian/ wheezy nginx deb-src http://nginx.org/packages/debian/ wheezy nginx Install the keys
apt-get update && apt-get install deb-multimedia-keyring wget http://www.dotdeb.org/dotdeb.gpg -O- |apt-key add - gpg --keyserver hkp://keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys ABF5BD827BD9BF62 gpg -a --export 7BD9BF62 | apt-key add - We knock out.
apt-get update && apt-get upgrade We put the necessary packages (I hope I did not forget anything)
apt-get install build-essential autoconf automake libtool libncurses5-dev libncursesw5-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev screen openssl php5 php5-cli curl libcppunit-dev libsigc++-2.0-dev subversion php5-cgi nginx php5-common php5-fpm php5-gd php-pear checkinstall git If the system previously stood rtorrent from the repository, delete it
apt-get purge rtorrent libtorrent* Build the right packages
When assembling all three packages, there may be an error with the version number, I prefer to set the build date, also during the assembly I can swear for the absence of directories, just create them and run them again.
Building and Installing xmlrpc-c
Create a directory where the sources will be
mkdir ~/svn Go into it
cd ~/svn We get fresh weights
svn co https://xmlrpc-c.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/xmlrpc-c/advanced/ xmlrpc-c Go to the resulting directory
cd xmlrpc-c We collect:
./configure --disable-cplusplus make checkinstall -D Build libtorrent (the points are the same in short)
cd ~/svn git clone https://github.com/rakshasa/libtorrent cd libtorrent ./autogen.sh ./configure make checkinstall -D Build rtorrent
cd ~/svn git clone https://github.com/rakshasa/rtorrent cd rtorrent ./autogen.sh ./configure --with-xmlrpc-c make checkinstall -D We connect the necessary ones, without this, rtorrent will not start in the future.
echo "include /usr/local/lib" | tee -a /etc/ld.so.conf ldconfig We try to run rtorrent , if everything is OK, it will start, but it will complain about the absence of the configuration file, you can exit by Ctrl + Q
Create a user (in my example, this is a p2p user), the home directory of which will be our folder with torrents, make a group for it www-data
adduser --home /hdd --shell /bin/bash --ingroup www-data p2p move into it
su p2p Create a config for rtorrent
nano ~/.rtorrent.rc with this content:

Again, we try to start rtorrent , if any parameter in the config is not correct, we get an error with the line number, fix it, try again, if everything is fine, create an autorun script, return to root, exit command in the terminal, return us from the p2p session in root session.
wget http://libtorrent.rakshasa.no/raw-attachment/wiki/RTorrentCommonTasks/rtorrentInit.sh mv rtorrentInit.sh /etc/init.d/rtorrent chmod +x /etc/init.d/rtorrent go to the autorun script
nano /etc/init.d/rtorrent Change the line user = "p2p" to our user.
We try to run
/etc/init.d/rtorrent start We check that everything started
ps aux | grep rtorrent Should see similar lines
p2p 10443 0.0 0.0 23388 1516? Ss 13:17 0:00 SCREEN -dm -S rtorrent
p2p 10449 0.0 0.3 110904 7120 pts / 2 Ssl + 13:17 0:00 rtorrent
With rtorrent finished, now let's move on to setting the frontends.

Caching settings can be disabled or use other parameters at my discretion, I took typical ones.
It is also desirable to set the timezone in the php settings, for this in the files /etc/php5/fpm/php.ini and /etc/php5/cli/php.ini
let's set a variable with our zone, in my case it is Kiev time.
date.timezone = "Europe/Kiev" Now let's do the rutorrent engine
cd /var/www/ wget https://rutorrent.googlecode.com/files/rutorrent-3.5.tar.gz tar -xzf rutorrent-3.5.tar.gz rm rutorrent-3.5.tar.gz cd rutorrent You can download plugins one by one from the site
I prefer to download everything at once, and then delete the unnecessary (description of plug-ins is here )
rmdir plugins wget https://rutorrent.googlecode.com/files/plugins-3.5.tar.gz tar -xzf plugins-3.5.tar.gz rm plugins-3.5.tar.gz A little tweak engine config:
In file
nano conf/config.php change the variable to the root of files with torrents.
$topDirectory = '/hdd/torrent/'; We will generate a username and password to access the engine, you can use htpasswd from the delivery of apache,
but we don’t have it, therefore we will generate the improvised means:
echo -e "your-username:`perl -le 'print crypt("your-password","salt")'`" > /var/www/rutorrent/.htpasswd In the username, do not forget to leave a colon at the end.
We change the owner of the directory to our
chown -R p2p:www-data /var/www/rutorrent Restart nginx and php
service nginx restart service php5-fpm restart In the browser, we type our server’s ip, enter the login and password generated earlier, and get into the control panel of our rocking chair.
We finished with the web snout, tweaking and a description of the features are on the official website, I will not repeat, let's move on to a convenient management with android.
Download to phone and / or tablet
http://transdroid.org/latest
http://transdroid.org/latest-search
install and run.
Choose "Add a new server"
Name: Any to choose
Server Type: rTorrent
IP address or domain name: your server ip or domain
Port: 80
Use authorization: put a tick
We indicate our name and password in the corresponding fields.
Folder: no changes
In the advanced settings checkbox to your taste
Operating system: Linux
Ftp address: p2p : password @ ip_server / torrent / download / (indicate access to the ftp folder, about ftp settings below.)
Since we did not use ssl, the rest is unchanged.
After that, you can go to your server and see the current downloads, the rest of the program settings to your taste.
We put the FTP server, very briefly:
apt-get install proftpd In the standard /etc/proftpd/proftpd.conf config we change:
ServerName "My torrent server" DefaultRoot ~ # RootLogin off # root # IP ( ) UseReverseDNS off PassivePorts 40000 40499 # rtorrent More fine-tuning can be viewed in the set of articles on this topic; within this article, such a minimum is enough
service proftpd restart We put a samba
Needed for easy local access, also very briefly.
apt-get install samba We give the config /etc/samba/smb.conf to the form:
Minimum config
; Global server settings
[global]
; General server settings
; The name of the company, as will be seen in the network environment
netbios name = torrent-box

create mask = 0644
directory mask = 0755
We generate the password for our user
smbpasswd -a p2p Enable user
smbpasswd -e p2p And so, as a result, we got a working torrent server, with rich management capabilities, access to downloaded files via smb and ftp, from additional amenities I can advise you to use a number of plug-ins for rutorrent, allowing you to automate the downloading of new products. From connected projects, I would like to cancel torrentmonitor from habraiser KorP .
Thank you all for your attention.
