Chihaya is a customizable, high-performance BitTorrent tracker written in Go that supports both HTTP and UDP announce protocols with IPv4 and IPv6. It features a pluggable middleware architecture, Prometheus metrics, Redis-backed high availability, and Kubernetes deployment via Helm.
Use cases
- run a self-hosted bittorrent tracker for peer-to-peer file distribution
- track peers for a private torrent community
- enable p2p cloud software deployments
- deploy a scalable tracker on kubernetes with helm
- monitor tracker traffic with prometheus metrics
- support ipv6 bittorrent clients
When to choose
- you need a production-grade tracker with middleware hooks for custom logic
- you want high availability via redis and kubernetes deployment
- you need both http and udp tracker protocols with ipv6 support
When to avoid
- you need a full torrent client or indexer rather than just a tracker
- you want a simple tracker without needing go tooling or configuration
- you need dht or peer exchange support
