The LBRY tracker is a server that helps peers find each other. It was forked from [Chihaya](https://github.com/chihaya/chihaya), an open-source [BitTorrent tracker](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BitTorrent_tracker).
|
||||
|
||||
Chihaya is an open source [BitTorrent tracker] written in [Go].
|
||||
|
||||
Differentiating features include:
|
||||
## Installation and Usage
|
||||
|
||||
- HTTP and UDP protocols
|
||||
- IPv4 and IPv6 support
|
||||
- Pre/Post middleware hooks
|
||||
- [YAML] configuration
|
||||
- Metrics via [Prometheus]
|
||||
- High Availability via [Redis]
|
||||
- Kubernetes deployment via [Helm]
|
||||
|
||||
**Note:** The master branch may be in an unstable or even broken state during development.
|
||||
Please use [releases] instead of the master branch in order to get stable binaries.

## Why Chihaya?
|
||||
|
||||
Chihaya is built for developers looking to integrate BitTorrent into a preexisting production environment.
|
||||
Chihaya's pluggable architecture and middleware framework offers a simple and flexible integration point that abstracts the BitTorrent tracker protocols.
|
||||
The most common use case for Chihaya is enabling peer-to-peer cloud software deployments.
