synapse

Synapse is a lightweight bittorrent daemon.

Synapse is only useful when paired with RPC clients. We ship sycli with synapse; use sycli -h to learn how to use it.

Our peer ID is SY.

Features

• Websocket-based RPC
• HTTP(S) and UDP trackers
• DHT (& magnet links)
• Sequential downloading
• etc

RPC Clients

• receptor: web client
• axon: curses client
• broca: translates synapse RPC to transmission RPC

For your convenience, web.synapse-bt.org is running the latest version of receptor. Note: this requires you to set up synapse independently.
