Azureus on Rails

Saturday, January 20th, 2007

Over the last few months I’ve been developing Azureus on Rails, a web interface for Azureus implemented in Ruby on Rails. The first release is now available for download at RubyForge.

For a while I had been using Strawp’s Azureus PHP Control Layer and the HTML Web UI plugin. Neither of these provided all the features I wanted though, so I developed my own. Azureus on Rails

  • displays detailed information about each torrent,
  • allows torrent and file priorities to be adjusted,
  • supports stopping, starting, pausing and removing torrents,
  • allows torrents to be uploaded or added by url
  • and has a feed of the downloading and seeding torrents

The Azureus on Rails Wiki contains the full list of supported features as well as screenshots and installation instructions.
