verified Jun 17, 2026

bittorrent-tracker is a Node.js library offering a comprehensive, robust, and well-tested implementation of both a BitTorrent tracker client and server. It currently stands at version 11.2.2 and sees active, frequent releases (multiple times per year), ensuring ongoing development and bug fixes. Key differentiators include its support for all mainstream tracker types—HTTP, UDP (BEP 15), and WebTorrent (BEP forthcoming)—alongside IPv4 and IPv6 compatibility and the BitTorrent scrape extension. The module provides statistics via a web interface or JSON API and is a core component used by popular clients like WebTorrent, peerflix, and playback, making it a reliable choice for building BitTorrent-enabled applications.
