# Torrents.csv

`Torrents.csv` is a vetted database of torrents, consisting of a single, searchable `torrents.csv` file. Its initially populated with a January 2017 backup of the pirate bay, and new torrents are periodically added from various torrents sites via a rust script. 

`Torrents.csv` will only store torrents with at least one seeder to keep the file small, and will be periodically purged of non-seeded torrents, and sorted by seeders descending.

## Searching
To find torrents, run `./search.sh "frasier s01"`
```
Frasier S01-S11 (1993-)
	seeders: 33
	size: 13GiB
	link: magnet:?xt=urn:btih:3cc5142d0d139bcc9ea9925239a142770b98cf74
```

## Uploading

An *upload*, consists of making a pull request after running the `add_torrents.sh` script, which adds torrents from a directory you choose to the `.csv` file, after checking that they aren't already there, and that they have seeders.
