### 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.

I don't know the owner, but the tracker works with qBitTorrent.
