__Torrust Index__, is a [BitTorrent][bittorrent] Index (a service where a group of people can maintain a set of torrents and their associated metadata), written in [Rust Language][rust] and [axum] (a modern web application framework). ___This index aims to be respectful to established standards, (both [formal][BEP 00] and [otherwise][torrent_source_felid]).___
__Torrust Index__, is a library for [BitTorrent][bittorrent] Files. Written in [Rust Language][rust] with the [axum] web framework. ___This index aims to be respectful to established standards, (both [formal][BEP 00] and [otherwise][torrent_source_felid]).___

> This is a [Torrust][torrust] project and is in active development. It is community supported as well as sponsored by [Nautilus Cyberneering][nautilus].
- _We have a [container guide][containers.md] for those who wish to get started with __Docker__ or __Podman___
## About
The core purpose of a [BitTorrent][bittorrent] Index is to maintain a database that connects torrent files with useful metadata. Allowing a community of users to keep track their torrents in a well organized and informative manner.

The __Torrust Index__ serves a [high-level api][api] for our [Torrust Index GUI][gui] client. It also connects to the [management api][api_tracker] of our [Torrust Tracker][tracker], to provide statistic and whitelisting functionally.

## Key Features

- [x] High Quality and Modern Rust Codebase.
- [x] [Rest API][documentation] documentation generated from code comments.
- [x] [Documentation][docs] Generated from Code Comments.
- [x] [Comprehensive Suit][coverage] of Unit and Functional Tests.
- [x] Good Performance in Busy Conditions.
- [x] Native `IPv4` and `IPv6` support.
- [x] Support for either `SQLite3` or `MySQL` databases.
- [x] Categories and Tags
- [x] Image Proxy
- [x] Persistent `SQLite3` or `MySQL` Databases.

## Getting Started

### Upgrading
If you are using `Version 1` of `torrust-tracker-backend`, please view our [upgrading guide][upgrade.md].

### Container Version

The Torrust Index is [deployed to DockerHub][dockerhub], you can run a demo immediately with the following commands:

### Development Version

Requirements:
- Please assure you have the ___[latest stable (or nightly) version of rust][rust]___.
- Please assure that you computer has enough ram. ___Recommended 16GB.___

#### Checkout, Test and Run:

```sh
# Checkout repository into a new folder:
git clone https://github.com/torrust/torrust-index.git

# Change into directory and create a empty database file:
cd torrust-index
mkdir -p ./storage/index/lib/database/
touch ./storage/index/lib/database/sqlite3.db

# Check all tests in application:
cargo test --tests --benches --examples --workspace --all-targets --all-features

# Run the index:
cargo run
```
#### Customization:

```sh
# Copy the default configuration into the standard location:
mkdir -p ./storage/index/etc/
cp ./share/default/config/index.development.sqlite3.toml ./storage/index/etc/index.toml

# Customize the index configuration (for example):
vim ./storage/index/etc/index.toml

# Run the index with the updated configuration:
TORRUST_INDEX_PATH_CONFIG="./storage/index/etc/index.toml" cargo run
```

_Optionally, you may choose to supply the entire configuration as an environmental variable:_

* Rust Stable `1.72`
```sh
# Use a configuration supplied on an environmental variable:
TORRUST_INDEX_CONFIG=$(cat "./storage/index/etc/index.toml") cargo run
```

You can follow the [documentation][documentation] to install and use Torrust Index in different ways, but if you want to give it a quick try, you can use the following commands:
_For deployment you __should__ override the `tracker_api_token` by using an environmental variable:_

```s
git clone https://github.com/torrust/torrust-index.git \
&& cd torrust-index \
&& cargo build --release
```sh
# Please use the secret that you generated for the torrust-tracker configuration.
# Override secret in configuration using an environmental variable
TORRUST_INDEX_CONFIG=$(cat "./storage/index/etc/index.toml") \
TORRUST_INDEX_TRACKER_API_TOKEN=$(cat "./storage/tracker/lib/tracker_api_admin_token.secret") \
cargo run
```

And then run `cargo run` twice. The first time to generate the `config.toml` file and the second time to run the index with the default configuration.
> Please view our [crate documentation][docs] for more detailed instructions.
After running the index the API will be available at <http://localhost:3001>.
### Services
The following services are provided by the default configuration:

- API
- `http://127.0.0.1:3001/`.
