Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

magnet-to-torrent

convert a magnet uri to a torrent download link

Install

npm install --save magnet-to-torrent

How to use

var magnetToTorrent = require('magnet-to-torrent');

var magnet = '< a valid magnet uri >';
magnetToTorrent.getLink(magnet)
    .then( function(torrentLink){
        console.log(torrentLink); // torrent url as string
    })
    .catch(function(error){
        console.error(error); // couldn't get a valid link
    });

Check if URI is a Magnet URI

The following verifies if the magnet uri provided is formatted correctly.

var bool = magnetToTorrent.isMagnet(magnet); // returns boolean

Default Services Used

The library will attempt to retrieve a working torrent link from the following services, respectively:

  • http://bt.box.n0808.com
  • http://reflektor.karmorra.info
  • http://torcache.net
  • https://torrage.com

Adding a Conversion Service

Each service takes in hash as a parameter and uses it to build the download link in the format of how the said service allows a user to download torrents. The library tests if the torrent is cached by the service and responds with the first url that has the torrent available.

You can add your own service before attempting to convert magnets.

See snippet below.

eg.

var service = function(hash){
    return `http://reflektor.karmorra.info/torrent/${hash}.torrent`;
};

magnetToTorrent.addService(service);

/**
 OR:
 Optionally, use a second parameter to push the service to the top of the stack
 This will ensure your service is called first
**/
magnetToTorrent.addService(service, true);

Notes:

  • hash is the torrent hash extracted from the magnet uri
  • This is an experiment but should work fine.

Report any issues.
