Some info on usage: if you save a .torrent to the torrentdir, the script will pick it up in max 2 minutes. It'll beep once if the torrent is found to be defective (most likely, another program WILL accept it!). If the slug beeps twice, it has accepted the torrent and started downloading (a DOWNLOADING.txt will appear in the folder it's downloading to). The name of the downloadfolder is a subdirectory from $finisheddir and is determined by the name found inside the .torrent file. Once the download is finished, the slug will beep twice again. As long as it's still seeding, you'll see a text file in the download directory, called SEEDING.txt. Once the seeding has reached the desired ratio, the slug will beep three times.
Please be advised: I have no idea what happens if you move/rename the downloadfolder of a torrent while it's still seeding. Most likely it'll work out though.

Btpd is a lightweight bittorrent daemon. It is able to handle multiple torrents in one process.

How to install: ipkg install btpd

Btpd consists of 3 files: -btpd - the daemon -btcli - the command line program to add / remove / stop / start / give stats / list /etc -btinfo - a program designed to show the contents of a .torrent file

btpd can, like enhanced-ctorrent, be combined with a script to automatically start downloading .torrents that are saved in a certain folder. It has the advantage that you don't need screen for monitoring, but on the other hand: there is no webbased control script available (yet).

I have made the following script for automatic downloading:

!/bin/bash
set -x

wantedratio="1" torrentdir="/public/torrents" invaliddir="/public/torrents/invalid" finisheddir="/public/finished_downloads"

--- check whether btpd is running ---

[ `ps | grep -i btpd | grep -v grep | wc | cut -b 7-8` -lt 1 ] && `nohup btpd -p 2101 --ip 85.145.139.80 --bw-in 1200 --bw-out 100 > /dev/null 2> /dev/null &`

--- check for new torrents ---

cd $torrentdir torrentfile=`find . -maxdepth 1 -name "*.torrent" | head -n 1 | cut -d "/" -f 2` if [ "$torrentfile" != "" ]; then

 if [ `btinfo $torrentfile 2> /dev/null | wc | cut -b 4-10` -eq 0 ]; then
  mv "$torrentfile" "$invaliddir"
  Set_Led beep1
  exit
 fi

 newdir=`btinfo $torrentfile | grep Name | sed -e "s/Name: //" | sed -e "s/[/\]/./g" | cut -b 1-40`
 mkdir "$finisheddir/$newdir"
 chmod 777 "$finisheddir/$newdir"
 mv "$torrentfile" "$finisheddir/$newdir"
 cd "$finisheddir/$newdir"
 btcli add -d . $torrentfile
 Set_Led beep2 &
 sleep 1
 killall Set_Led

fi

--- check status ---

btnod=`btcli list | grep % | wc | sed -e 's/ */ /g' | cut -d " " -f 2` for (( i = 1 ; i <= $btnod; i++ )) do

 line=`btcli list | grep % | tr "\n" "\t" | cut -f $i`
 btrest=`echo "$line" | cut -b 43- | sed -e 's/ */\*/g'`

 btname=`echo "$line" | cut -b 1-42 | sed -e 's/   *//g'`
 btnr=`echo "$btrest" | cut -d "*" -f 2`
 btratio=`echo "$btrest" | cut -d "*" -f 6`
 btpct=`echo "$btrest" | cut -d "*" -f 4`
 btdir=`echo "$btname" | sed -e 's/[/\]/./g'`

 cd "$finisheddir/$btdir"*
 if [ $btpct != "100.0%" ];
 then
  [ -e "./ DOWNLOADING.txt" ] && `rm "./ DOWNLOADING.txt"`
  btcli stat $btnr | grep -v DLOAD > "./ DOWNLOADING.txt"
  chmod 777 "./ DOWNLOADING.txt"
 else
  if [ expr -n $btratio ">=" $wantedratio ];
  then
   btcli del $btnr
   [ -e "./ DOWNLOADING.txt" ] && `rm "./ DOWNLOADING.txt"`
   [ -e "./ SEEDING.txt" ] && `rm "./ SEEDING.txt"`
   Set_Led beep3 &
   sleep 1
   killall Set_Led

   if [ -e "./ DOWNLOADING.txt" ]; then
    chmod -R 777 .
    rm "./ DOWNLOADING.txt"
    Set_Led beep2 &
    sleep 1
    killall Set_Led

   btcli stat $btnr | grep -v DLOAD > "./ SEEDING.txt"

 fi
