-# Kiwix tracker
-
-This is the private [BitTorrent](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BitTorrent) tracker of the Kiwix organisation.
-
-It tries to make the best use of the famous [opentracker](https://erdgeist.org/arts/software/opentracker/). 
-
-## Run
-
-```bash
-$docker run -d --name bittorrent-tracker -p 6969:6969/udp -p 6969:6969 -v \
-  offline_whitelisted_files.tsv:/etc/opentracker/offline_whitelisted_files.tsv ghcr.io/kiwix/bittorrent-tracker`
-```
-
-This will bind the port `6969` to the docker container (UDP and TCP) and you're good to go.
-
-The `offline_whitelisted_files.tsv` keeps track of which files are
-published at https://library.kiwix.org/. It can be empty at start, but
-will be populated over time.
-
-This file is then used (indirectly) by opentracker to know which
-torrent can be whitelisted.
-
-## Thanks & Donations
-[Best wishes to the creators of opentracker!](http://erdgeist.org/arts/software/opentracker/)
-opentracker is _beerware_ so feel free to donate those guys a drink ;-)

-# opentracker config file
-#
-
-# I)   Address opentracker will listen on, using both, tcp AND udp family
-#      (note, that port 6969 is implicite if ommitted).
-#
-#      If no listen option is given (here or on the command line), opentracker
-#      listens on 0.0.0.0:6969 tcp and udp.
-#
-#      The next variable determines if udp sockets are handled in the event
-#      loop (set it to 0, the default) or are handled in blocking reads in
-#      dedicated worker threads. You have to set this value before the
-#      listen.tcp_udp or listen.udp statements before it takes effect, but you
-#      can re-set it for each listen statement. Normally you should keep it at
-#      the top of the config file.
-#
-# listen.udp.workers 4
-#
-# listen.tcp_udp 0.0.0.0
-# listen.tcp_udp 192.168.0.1:80
-# listen.tcp_udp 10.0.0.5:6969
-#
-#      To only listen on tcp or udp family ports, list them this way:
-#
-# listen.tcp 0.0.0.0
-# listen.udp 192.168.0.1:6969
-#
-#      Note, that using 0.0.0.0 for udp sockets may yield surprising results.
-#      An answer packet sent on that socket will not necessarily have the
-#      source address that the requesting client may expect, but any address
-#      on that interface.
-#
-
-# II)  If opentracker runs in a non-open mode, point it to files containing
-#      all torrent hashes that it will serve (shell option -w)
-#
-# access.whitelist /etc/opentracker/whitelist.txt
-#
-#      or, if opentracker was compiled to allow blacklisting (shell option -b)
-#
-# access.blacklist /etc/opentracker/blacklist.txt
-#
-#      It is pointless and hence not possible to compile black AND white
-#      listing, so choose one of those options at compile time. File format
-#      is straight forward: "<hex info hash>\n<hex info hash>\n..."
-#
-#      If you do not want to grant anyone access to your stats, enable the
-#      WANT_RESTRICT_STATS option in Makefile and bless the ip addresses
-#      allowed to fetch stats here.
-#
-# access.stats 192.168.0.23
-#
-#      There is another way of hiding your stats. You can obfuscate the path
-#      to them. Normally it is located at /stats but you can configure it to
-#      appear anywhere on your tracker.
-#
-# access.stats_path stats
-
-# III) Live sync uses udp multicast packets to keep a cluster of opentrackers
-#      synchronized. This option tells opentracker which port to listen for
-#      incoming live sync packets. The ip address tells opentracker, on which
-#      interface to join the multicast group, those packets will arrive.
-#      (shell option -i 192.168.0.1 -s 9696), port 9696 is default.
-#
-# livesync.cluster.listen 192.168.0.1:9696
-#
-#      Note that two udp sockets will be opened. One on ip address 0.0.0.0
-#      port 9696, that will join the multicast group 224.0.42.23 for incoming
-#      udp packets and one on ip address 192.168.0.1 port 9696 for outgoing
-#      udp packets.
-#
-#      As of now one and only one ip address must be given, if opentracker
-#      was built with the WANT_SYNC_LIVE feature.
-#
-
-# IV)  Sync between trackers running in a cluster is restricted to packets
-#      coming from trusted ip addresses. While source ip verification is far
-#      from perfect, the authors of opentracker trust in the correct
-#      application of tunnels, filters and LAN setups (shell option -A).
-#
-# livesync.cluster.node_ip 192.168.0.4
-# livesync.cluster.node_ip 192.168.0.5
-# livesync.cluster.node_ip 192.168.0.6
-#
-#      This is the admin ip address for old style (HTTP based) asynchronus
-#      tracker syncing.
-#
-# batchsync.cluster.admin_ip 10.1.1.1
-#
-
-# V)   Control privilege drop behaviour.
-#      Put in the directory opentracker will chroot/chdir to. All black/white
-#      list files must be put in that directory (shell option -d).
-#
-#
-# tracker.rootdir /usr/local/etc/opentracker
-#
-#      Tell opentracker which user to setuid to.
-#
-# tracker.user    nobody
-#
-
-# VI)  opentracker can be told to answer to a "GET / HTTP"-request with a
-#      redirect to another location (shell option -r).
