TorrentPier Download Center

Download center for TorrentPier builds: https://get.torrentpier.dev

A cron job reads releases and tags of torrentpier/torrentpier and torrentpier/torrentpier-lts, downloads the builds into secret/ and lists them in MySQL. A build is listed only after it passes verification:

• the final HTTP status is 200 and the body length matches Content-Length;
• sha256 and size match the release asset digest, when GitHub provides one;
• the file is a valid ZIP archive.

The checksum shown on the site is the sha256 of the stored file. A file already on disk is re-checked the same way and downloaded again if it fails.

Fetching builds (console only)

php cron.php                         # latest build of the main repository
php cron.php version=v2.4.1          # a specific build
php cron.php version=all             # every build
php cron.php type=lts                # latest LTS build
php cron.php type=lts version=all    # every LTS build

Progress and errors go to logs/cron.log. cron.php refuses to run over HTTP.

Setup

1. composer install
2. cp .env.example .env and fill in the database settings. Use APP_ENV=production: with local the cached GitHub responses in json/ are never refreshed. GITHUB_TOKEN is optional and only raises the GitHub API rate limit.
3. Import install/mysql.sql.
4. Schedule php cron.php and php cron.php type=lts (for example once a day).

Deploy

A push to main runs .forgejo/workflows/deploy.yml: lint, composer install --no-dev, then the code is shipped over SSH to the server, where it is checked with the site's PHP and copied over the previous version (with a backup). .env, secret/, json/, logs/ and caches on the server are never touched by a deploy. Needs the DEPLOY_SSH_KEY secret and the DEPLOY_TARGET and DEPLOY_KNOWN_HOSTS variables in Forgejo.

Keep .env, json/, logs/, vendor/, cache/, compiled/, install/, template/ and the PHP helpers (cron.php, Updater.php, bootstrap.php, functions.php) out of public reach. .htaccess alone does not protect them when nginx serves static files itself.
