SimpleBitTorrent

RealTime Tracker & Peer BitTorrent protocol using string chunk data.

Multiple Peers from different devices and IPs connect to a running Tracker and send & receive chunks to fellow peers connected to Tracker.

Pre-Requisites for Running

• Establish Port Forwarding for both Tracker and Peers:
  • Port numbers must match with what is in the code.
  • Protocol can be either TCP, UDP or both.
• For peer.js:
  • Input Tracker IP and port number for variable 'trackerURL'.
  • Give your chunk a number in its chunkId for variable 'fileChunks'.
• Install Libraries:
  • NodeJS
  • NPM
  • NATPMP
  • AXIOS
  • WebSocket

How to Run

• tracker.js runs first.
• peer.js runs when tracker is up and properly established.
• peers will start chunk requests and transmissions when 2+ peers connected to same tracker.
• new peer list sent out to all connected peers when there's a new user or a user disconnects.
