List of Trackers - Oct. 2023

[lgillis]

#!/usr/bin/env sh

### Query the online status of trackers from the I2Pd address book.

# Search with "awk" for all addresses with "tracker" in the name
# and convert them into an HTTP URL,
# each tracker found is queried individually in a loop,
# use "wget" instead of "ping" (spider = nothing is downloaded),
# and output the result.

awk -F ',' '/tracker/ {print "http://"$1}' /var/lib/i2pd/addressbook/addresses.csv | while read -r known
do
printf "Status Tracker: %s\n" "$known"
wget --spider --timeout=15 --tries=1 "$known"
case $? in
0) printf "Reachable (rc: %s)\n\n" "$?" ;;
*) printf "Out Of Reach (rc: %s)\n\n" "$?" ;;
esac
done

# TODO: The query is not correct. a) It only provides an initial indication of whether the parent site is currently accessible. b) The announce URL is not taken into account (sometimes it is “announce.php”, then it ends with “a” etc., it is not standardized). c) Timeout and tries may have to be adapted manually to the respective connection.

Here again the previously mentioned finished list, which is maintained by cumlord:

We can add http://opentracker.fattydove.i2p/a to the list of working open trackers.
I don't know the owner, but the tracker works with qBitTorrent.

[cumlord]

thanks, added it

looks sketchy the website does not claim that it is a torrent tracker. there is nothing written on website about torrents or anything.

I checked my addresses.csv for sites with tracker in the name. Then I checked if they were reachable and seemed to be able to be used as trackers. I also tried trackers I've seen before (with b32 addresses) that have been listed somewhere.

After removing the ones that didn't respond, the ones that were not actually trackers, and the duplicates (b32 addresses where a regular something.i2p address was available), this is what I believe is a complete list of currently working open trackers.

Code: Select all

http://omitracker.i2p/announce.php
http://opentracker-actix.i2p/a
http://opentracker.bt.i2p/a
http://opentracker.dg2.i2p/a
http://opentracker.eeptorrent.i2p/a
http://opentracker.fattydove.i2p/a
http://opentracker.r4sas.i2p/a
http://opentracker.simp.i2p/a
http://opentracker.skank.i2p/a
http://tracker.eeptorrent.i2p/a
http://6kw6voy3v5jzmkbg4i3rlqjysre4msgarpkpme6mt5u2jw33nffa.b32.i2p/announce

The Postman tracker requires the torrent to be registered at postman.i2p. As far as I know, no other tracker in the list above has that type of requirement. For this reason, it gets its own list.

Code: Select all

http://tracker2.postman.i2p/announce.php

Sorry to hear that. It seemed to work when I tried it, so at least it doesn't seem to be completely dead.

http://tracker.eeptorrent.i2p and http://opentracker.eeptorrent.i2p are the same tracker despite having different b32s. wonder if he keeps it running just bc ppl announce to both, who knows. pick one though i stick with http://opentracker.eeptorrent.i2p as this is the b32 displayed on the footer

not sure about omitracker, can confirm it works with snark at least sometimes but i wonder if it has throttling issues like i think eeptorrent tracker does

updated http://simp.i2p/external_status to include the udp:// addresses for skank and simp, added opentracker-actix.i2p and opentracker.bt.i2p, http://simp.i2p/external_status/trackers has protocol field now. udp only works with dev snark for now
