#1681: Add support for announce_ip (and all other libtorrent settings) to
deluged
----------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
Reporter: gkuenning | Owner:
Type: patch | Status: new
Priority: major | Milestone: Future
Component: core | Version: 1.3.0
Keywords: announce_ip, libtorrent settings |
----------------------------------------------+-----------------------------
The announce_ip feature is critical for certain situations; without it
deluge is unusable as a seeder when both it and the tracker are behind the
same NAT box. Fortunately, libtorrent already supports the feature, so it
just needs to be added to deluge.
The enclosed patch adds a new switch to deluged: --libtorrent NAME=VALUE.
This can be used to set announce_ip as well as all other libtorrent
options.
Caveats: (1) To make this work, I had to change announce_ip's C++ type
from address to std::string, because I don't know enough about Python
Boost wrappers to write a proper wrapper for address. I believe that
change to be harmless because AFAIK this libtorrent is only used inside
deluge. (2) I didn't add any support for setting libtorrent options in
the config file. There were several reasons for this choice, including
the complexity of doing so, but the main one is that it doesn't seem to
make sense to set announce_ip dynamically because the announcement will
have already been made incorrectly.
