• Clone the repository, create a virtual environment, and install the requirements

  git clone https://github.com/hemantapkh/torrenthunt && virtualenv env && source env/bin/activate && cd torrenthunt && pip install -r requirements.txt

• Add your bot token in config.json file

• Run the migration.py file to open a database.

  python migrations.py

• Now, start the bot polling

  python torrenthunt.py

While polling and webhooks both accomplish the same task, webhooks are far more efficient. Polling sends a request for new events (specifically, Create, Retrieve, and Delete events, which signal changes in data) at a predetermined frequency and waits for the endpoint to respond whereas, webhooks only transfer data when there is new data to send, making them 100% efficient. That means that polling creates, on average, 66x more server load than webhooks. (r)

• Generate an SSL certificate

  >> openssl genrsa -out sslPrivateKey.pem 2048
  >> openssl req -new -x509 -days 3650 -key sslPrivateKey.pem -out sslCertificate.pem

  "Common Name (e.g. server FQDN or YOUR name)" should be your Host IP.

• Edit config.json file and set

  • connectionType = webhook
  • webhookHost = IP/Host where the bot is running
  • webhookPort = PORT (Need to be opened)
  • webhookListen = 0.0.0.0 or IP address in some VPS
  • sslCertificate = Directory of SSL certificate
  • sslPrivateKey = Directory of SSL private key

• And, start the aioHttp server.

  python torrenthunt.py

You can set up GitHub actions to update the bot automatically on every push.

• Fork the repository on your GitHub account.

• Create a directory

  mkdir /opt/TorrentHunt && cd /opt/TorrentHunt

  You should create a directory with the same name as above inside /opt, or edit the deploy.yml and deployScript.sh

• Create a virtual environment in the directory with name env

  virtualenv env

• Clone the repository and install the requirements in the virtual environment

  git clone https://github.com/hemantapkh/TorrentHunt && cd TorrentHunt && source /opt/TorrentHunt/env/bin/activate && pip install -r requirements.txt

• Create a database and move the database into /opt/TorrentHunt

  python migrations.py && mv database.sqlite /opt/TorrentHunt

• Generate SSH keys for your VPS and keep the private key in your GitHub secrets

  • Create the ssh key pair using the ssh-keygen command. You must leave the passphrase empty while generating the SSH key.
  • Copy and install the public ssh key on the server using sh-copy-id -i your_public_key user@host command or add the content of the public key in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys.
  • Now, copy the content of the private key and paste it on your GitHub secrets with the name SSHKEY. (Repository settings >> secrets >> New repository secret)

• Create another GitHub secret with name HOST and save your Host IP.

• Edit config.json file and set

  • database = /opt/TorrentHunt/database.sqlite
  • If you are using webhooks, copy the SSL certificate and private key in /opt/TorrentHunt and set
    • sslCertificate = /opt/TorrentHunt/sslCertificate.pem
    • sslPrivateKey = /opt/TorrentHunt/sslPrivateKey.pem

• Copy the content of the edited config.json and save it on your repository secrets with name CONFIG. Don't forget to wrap the content of config file with single quotes like this 'Content of config.json'.

• And, start the bot.

  source /opt/TorrentHunt/env/bin/activate && screen -dm python /opt/TorrentHunt/TorrentHunt/torrenthunt.py

Now, every time you push on the main branch, the bot automatically gets updated.
