I've had this one once in the past while trying to download torrent files using command t[0/1/2/etc] but it resolved itself within a few hrs.

Its lasted > 24 hrs at this point. Any help?

ChuckCassadyJR commented 2 years ago

Think this is due to itorrents.org being down, may look at forking and providing a fallback torrent cache if this is permanent because otherwise this tool is broken.

Looks like it. I don't use this feature much, so I don't know about alternative services. I'm open to suggestions.

Ah, if you mean pirate-get in general: that's not true. You can and should use magnets instead of .torrents, in fact the pirate bay stopped providing them long ago.

Ah no sorry I just meant the .torrent download feature. It seems itorrents.org is back up, but it does make this feature unreliable if the site goes down (I know not a failing of pirate-get, but its less convenient for those who use the feature).

The torrent client I'm using (rTorrent for Arch Linux) does play nice with magnet links but not ones I can grab directly using pirate-get. Works fine with copying magnet links directly from TPB but I'm yet to take the time to work out whats different between the links from TPB and the ones pirate-get is returning.

The website and pirate-get are using the same API to get the info-hash, but the magnet URI is built up afterwards, so it could be slightly different. Can you send me one that works and one that doesn't?

Thanks for looking at this @rnhmjoj

Here is one that works copied directly from TBP..

magnet:?xt=urn:btih:A4F39C22AD7644BC253BA50F936CA8E2D52B242A&dn=Pirates%20of%20the%20Carribean%3A%20The%20Curse%20of%20the%20Black%20Pearl(2003)DVDR&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.coppersurfer.tk%3A6969%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.openbittorrent.com%3A6969%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2F9.rarbg.to%3A2710%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2F9.rarbg.me%3A2780%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2F9.rarbg.to%3A2730%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.opentrackr.org%3A1337&tr=http%3A%2F%2Fp4p.arenabg.com%3A1337%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.torrent.eu.org%3A451%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.tiny-vps.com%3A6969%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Fopen.stealth.si%3A80%2Fannounce

And one from pirate-get for the same torrent, looks like the main difference is just tracker query strings..

magnet:?xt=urn:btih:A4F39C22AD7644BC253BA50F936CA8E2D52B242A&dn=Pirates%20of%20the%20Carribean%3A%20The%20Curse%20of%20the%20Black%20Pearl%282003%29DVDR

And in fact the error I get in rtorrent is Could not create download: Could not find any trackers

To clarify, I am using the copy to clipboard feature c[0/1/2 etc]

rnhmjoj commented 2 years ago

Beside the parenthesis escaping, the only difference is pirate-get doesn't add a predefined list of trackers. I wonder if this issue is related: https://github.com/rakshasa/rtorrent/issues/602
