Parsing the Torrent Directory

    Eash time BNBT starts, it catalogs or parses the files in your torrent directory. This will happen regardless of the settings for the following configurations. The tracker can also be configured to parse the torrent directory at other times.

  1. Parse Allowed Interval

    This configuration allows the tracker to parse the torrent directory on a cycling interval. If set to 5, the tracker would catalog the torrent directory every 5 minutes.

    parse_allowed_interval = 5

    This method of parsing is now considered deprecated and is disabled (set to 0) by default in favor of the following method.

  2. Parse On Upload

    This configuration allows the tracker to parse the torrent directory whenever a new torrent file is uploaded. It is a much more efficient method of parsing because the torrent directory is only parsed when it needs to be, as opposed to using tracker resources to catalog when nothing new has been uploaded.

    For this configuration to work properly, the Parse Allowed Interval MUST BE DISABLED (set to 0). If both methods are enabled, your catalog can become corrupted.

    Acceptable values for this configuration are 1 (enabled) and 0 (disabled):

    parse_allowed_interval = 0
    bnbt_parse_on_upload = 1
