zzz
perhaps stormy and bigly need to talk
zzz
but hopefully just for torrent d/l, not webseed or bt traffic itself
eche|off
which reminds me of something
zzz
ok. independent of any outproxy issues, it looks like another set of tunnels. I sent him an email with my concerns
zzz
sadly, I've turned into a fulltime use-less-tunnels crusader
zzz
hmm I wonder if they could even be part of the current problem? Looks like he did point releases with the new proxy tunnels
zzz
not sure if they're on by default though
eche|off
symptome of not good enough docs :-/
zzz
but bigly has done this before, they should know better
eche|off
:-/
zzz
2.0.0.2.2 tagged on Nov. 29, 2.0.0.2.3 on Dec. 26, but not clear if he released them
eche|off
to bad
zzz
dates don't line up with network issues
eche|off
state about mac release: still invalid key to sign the files.
eche|off
yeah
zzz
again, don't know if on by default. will find out.
eche|off
I can create a .dmg to install latest i2p on mac, but with no notarization and thats not good, still working on it.
zzz
ok, thanks for update
eche|off
wonder if I should publish the signed, not notarized, 2.1.0, while I may need to change the key to sign in process
eche|off
if, at all, only as a test
zzz
have you tested it?
eche|off
it does run on my mac (at least 1 hour)
zzz
will apple let it install over top of 1.9.0? Does it just complain or does it bomb out?
eche|off
would need to install 1.9.0, but other reported my beta did install wihtout blowing up
eche|off
sadie just had a non.dmg install
zzz
sure then, put it on my forum with instructions and warnings
eche|off
later on^
zzz
:)
lbt
Is there a way to get I2PSnark to start a torrent that was added in the directory/filesystem using a bash-command or so? It would auto-start after a router-restart, but can I re-start _just_ i2psnark or even just signal it to rescan the directory for new files or something alike?
lbt
Starting them manually "looks okay" though, as in "Starting up torrent i2p.www.bundle-complete-git-2023-01-13"
zzz
sounds like it, please enter a gitlab ticket
lbt
Will do
lbt
Thx
zzz
thanks
dr|z3d
re bigly, probably harmless, zzz. I think that's just for pulling torrents from a tracker.
zzz
I asked him to verify it's not for webseed
dr|z3d
vaguely recall something in the bigly ui about http torrents last time I used it, which was a long time ago. ok, thanks.
dr|z3d
while we're on the topic of torrents, no, I2P+ doesn't have an explicit search feature, it has javascript-based filtering for torrents by status.
dr|z3d
if you want to take the existing filtering feature and convert it to query parameters and add search... :)
zzz
my suggestion is that you take the lead on it; if you don't bite, it's pretty far down my list
dr|z3d
I'd do something with javascript if there was a pagesize query param, but alas.
dr|z3d
with a pagesize param, you could perform an ajax search so you hit all pages if there's more than 1.
dr|z3d
I did something similar for susidns as a test.
dr|z3d
results returned as you type kind of deal.
zzz
that's fancier than I'm capable of
zzz
still fighting with DnD
dr|z3d
well, if you can handle the pagesize param, I can handle the inline instant search. :)
dr|z3d
iirc, I temporarily abandoned the susidns search because it got a git laggy with 1000 table rows. but maybe I'll see if it can be optimized.
dr|z3d
> iirc, I temporarily abandoned the susidns search because it got a git laggy with 1000 table rows. but maybe I'll see if it can be optimized.
zzz
hmm could I drop a cannon snark war into a running canon or would that explode?
zzz
should work if you didn't change any jar APIs
dr|z3d
should be fine.
dr|z3d
I'm assuming you'd run it as a second snark instance?
zzz
yeah, just to take a look
zzz
external css/js/imgs makes it messy though
dr|z3d
not with the standalone.
dr|z3d
all contained in the war.
zzz
ok, so build standalone, then copy that war
dr|z3d
try that, sure.
zzz
or just run standalone and avoid any chance of issues
dr|z3d
or just download an existing standalone build from postman.
dr|z3d
up to you. lots of options :)
zzz
the side-by-side in the same jvm might be fun for all the wars, would make your head spin though
dr|z3d
there's enough difference that your head shouldn't rotate too much :)
zzz
again, all depends on no jar-side changes
dr|z3d
you know the phrase, suck it and see :)
zzz
you can also try it vice-versa
dr|z3d
I don't think there are any canon snark features I'm needing to port :)
zzz
lets see what notbob thinks he wants, if he keeps it simple it may not be that hard
dr|z3d
at the most basic, he wants what susidns already has.
dr|z3d
enter string in box, hit return, existing torrents returned in the table.
zzz
sure, but still need to know what I'm searching
zzz
is it like postman's search, or something else
zzz
and what is postman's search anyway
dr|z3d
torrent or magnet name is probably what you want to limit it to. extra points if it takes a partial hash, but that's probably not required.
dr|z3d
postman's search is a bit more involved.
zzz
thats why I want notbob to do the research and explain what he wants
dr|z3d
you're not just searching for a torrent name, you've got category filters and all manner of extra bells and whistles.
dr|z3d
I've talked to notbob.
zzz
and I believe postman hits filenames too?
zzz
then somebody write it down
dr|z3d
he doesn't want a search on trackers.
dr|z3d
he wants a search for torrents loaded in snark.
zzz
no, but I mean it's similar algorithms, maybe
zzz
if you search on postman, or search in snark, would it return the same results
zzz
given identical torrents loaded
dr|z3d
keep it simple, at least initially. just search by torrent name.
zzz
cannonball kaboom
zzz
Error 500: /i2psnark-plus/ java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.klomp.snark.I2PSnarkUtil.showStatusFilter()Z
dr|z3d
not sure that postman's results search by filename, I think the search is by torrent name only.
dr|z3d
standalone?
zzz
no, dropin
zzz
API change
dr|z3d
standalone it is then.
zzz
yup
dr|z3d
showStatusFilter is the torrent filtering based on status.
zzz
I assumed.
dr|z3d
you'd need the .jar and the .war and the themes dir to make that work in canon. I should have known.
zzz
It was the standalone war, just not running standalone.
dr|z3d
ah, so probably relying on the existing i2psnark.jar then.
zzz
right, thats the explosion I predicted if you made any jar changes
dr|z3d
:)
zzz
which, if you're adding new config options, is impossible to avoid
dr|z3d
*nods*
dr|z3d
in-snark browser lightbox also diverges also with canon, and there's probably more.
zzz
I think postman needs to up his per-client conn limits, I can't get past the first page due to all the added icons
zzz
you seen that problem?
dr|z3d
no
dr|z3d
could just be a temporary tunnel fail. try a refresh.
zzz
the first page loaded in a heartbeat but now I'm stuck
dr|z3d
I occasionally see the page loaded without assets.
dr|z3d
so you're trying to browse to page 2 and it stalls?
zzz
yeah I'm blocked out
dr|z3d
just hit pages 1-4 and no issue.
zzz
you may have had things cached, depends when you were last there
dr|z3d
true, though I've not bumped into that issue before. postman doesn't use the tunnel throttler afaik, he uses a custom solution, so if you're blocked, it's usually on the page/section, not globally.
zzz
new tunnel and all good
dr|z3d
*thumbs up* was just about to say..
zzz
confirmed postman does not match on file name but does match on Description, Owner, and Genre
dr|z3d
none of those are really relevant to snark.
dr|z3d
if you start with torrent name, you can build out the features afterwards.
dr|z3d
I could see search by download size being useful. +500M or -200M or whatever, for >= or <= in similar vein to linux's find.
dr|z3d
or whatever syntax seems most intuitive. but just by torrent name would be a good start.
dr|z3d
you'd be returning results in the table as per normal listings, so that probably limits the theoretical scope of the searches
dr|z3d
(at least initially)
zzz
postman search for multiple terms is odd
zzz
Mystery Thriller returns lots; Mystery lskjflksdjlksdj returns nothing
dr|z3d
exact search terms only I think is the rule.
dr|z3d
(no fuzzy matching)
zzz
not talking about fuzzy, but about AND vs OR
zzz
ok it appears to be strictly AND
dr|z3d
*nods*
zzz
you know who was asking for "magnet dump" or why that's any better than BT scrape?
dr|z3d
no idea, haven't looked at the format of the dump.
zzz
CSV according to news
dr|z3d
better than a scrape because scrape is single torrent only on postman I suspect. that data's probably intended for importing into a different tracker or whatever.
zzz
its an odd, ad-hoc format
dr|z3d
grumble to postman :)
zzz
no, just saying I wonder who the customer is that convinced him to do it
zzz
#Torrent Name;Magnet Link (dump created: 2023-01-13 16:08:01)

zzz
56765 more rows
dr|z3d
yeah, no idea who the target audience is.
zzz
it's all you need for history, or backup, or a simple standalone search engine
zzz
if he crashes or vanishes
zzz
RIP brittanysworld.i2p and Yellow Submarine.mp3
zzz
which may have been 1st i2p torrent iirc
dr|z3d
avoid the rabbit hole!
dr|z3d
you were trying to get standalone cannon snark working. did you get there?
zzz
another day
dr|z3d
in standalone mode, it's one command. but whatever suits :)
zzz
you don't have home page search enabled by default in cannon? I see you put all that work into the provider list
dr|z3d
it's enabled, sure.
zzz
ok
zzz
typo:
zzz
"nitter.skank.i2p" + S + "hhttp://nitter.skank.i2p/search?f=tweets&q=%s" + SOURCE + S +
dr|z3d
ah, thanks.
dr|z3d
fat fingers wins again :|
zzz
join club
dr|z3d
:)
dr|z3d
never did figure out how to set a default search engine that persists restarts.
zzz
you ever get any feedback on search? I wonder if anybody uses it
zzz
you have a long list of special-purpose sites that would be unproblematic
dr|z3d
never solicited feedback, but I think it does get used. notbob uses it, I occasionally hit up zzz.i2p with queries.
zzz
might help the reddit "I installed it, now see this, wut do?" posts. might not.
dr|z3d
can't hurt. but if user is stuck on "how do I browse .i2p sites?" not going to help.
zzz
sure, still have the proxy problem, but easy-bundle fixes that
dr|z3d
true. well, up to you. I think it's a pretty useful feature to have on by default.
dr|z3d
and if you're in the i2p+ source, you'll see there are plenty of reasonable default engines.
zzz
another fatfinger:
zzz
"raklet.i2p" + S + "http://ransack.i2p/search?page=1&query=%s" + SOURCE + S +
dr|z3d
yeah, already fixed that, noticed after you mentioned the first, thanks :)
zzz
anyway, magnet dump is a good doomsday file, save a copy but hope we don't need it
zzz
eyedeekay, reminder, still need your gpg key
eyedeekay
Oh right, I promised to check that in on the website too
eyedeekay
I'll mail it too you right now
zzz
thanks
zzz
while we're talking promises, how about version/link on fdroid, and stickers for translators?
eyedeekay
Working through my backlog, doing the sticker post as we speak
eyedeekay
I'll do F-Droid tonight too
zzz
wouldnt have bugged you if you hadn't promised "that night" or "real soon" or similar :)
eyedeekay
No problem
eyedeekay
Keys all checked in, next on the list is the forum post then f-droid and I have to get back to echelon
