      What is Joal-Desktop
      Joal-Dekstop is somehow a ratio master, the "desktop" version works though a graphical user interface (pictures available at the bottom of this post).
      I initially developped JOAL because i was bored of the .NET framework requirement and i wanted to have a ratio-faker that could work on every OS.



      How JOAL compares with other tools
      JOAL RatioMaster Plus mRatio
      OS Windows / Linux / Mac Windows Windows
      Multi-torrent Yes Yes Yes
      Configuration Simple as hell Hard Simple
      Memory reader No Yes Yes
      App updates Automatic on Windows Download needed Download needed
      Clients file updates Automatic Download needed Download needed
      Proxy compliant No Yes Yes
      Multiple language No Yes Yes
      Headless server app Yes No No

      Don't get me wrong, i'm not saying JOAL is better than other tools around here. It does not cover the same needs. JOAL is focused in providing a simple user experience with multi-os support. It will fit your need if you want to get started with cheating your ratio or if get yourself lost in configuring other tools, but if you are an advanced user (or a developper) you'll find much more configuration opportunities in mRatio or RatioMaster.


      How to use it safely
      1. Start the app.
      2. Wait for updates to be checked.
      3. Change the configuration (if needed).
      4. Drag and drop torrents.
      5. Voila!
      6. Click on "stop" before closing the app.

      Some tips you need to know to use joal properly:
      Do not use JOAL when your real torrent client is started.
      Try not to froget to press the "STOP" button before closing the app.
      Always download torrents in your regular client before adding them into JOAL.


      Where do i download it
      Download it here

      On Windows app is auto-updated when you start it.
      On Linux app is auto-updated when you start it.
      On OSX updates must be downloaded manually (because a god damn signing certificate cost $300 a year...)

    i'm on xubuntu. where can i find the installed files of joal? i used the appimage file to run joal. Is it possible to tell joal to keep checking if the internet is connected properly every x mins?

    I don't really understand how AppImage works internally, it's just a convenient way of releasing Linux-ish version of Joal.
    If you are looking for the torrents and the joal-core binary you wil find them in : ~/.config/JoalDesktop/joal-core/

    Unfortunatelly there is no way to tweak the system to prevent joal from removing the torrents if it faisl to announce multiple times in a raw nor there is one to re-add the removed torrent automatically

    JoalDesktop with Mac OS Catalina (1015)

    Hello, I just installed JoalDesktop on my mac OS Catalina (1015)
    The program opens correctly

    When I go to my torrents downloads account to see my ratio I do not see any dramatic change.

    The settings are 30/170/20 (seed simulator)
    I use Deluge 1.3.15

    Do I miss something ?

    Again thanks you because I did not managed to install RatioMaster and I finally found JoalDesktop. Click image for larger version.

    Hi Anthony, Thank you so much for your efforts on building this tool. Especially given that we can use it for MAC, there aren't many that work with mac. As for your decision to keep the basic settings and simple to use its perfectly alright. One can't expect every tool to do everything for everyone. This is great work.

    I have just 1 query. I know you have explicitly called out that original client and Joal shouldn't be running together. Would you advice the same thing even if the torrent files in Joal and Original client are different ?

    The reason I ask this is everytime I need to download something for real, I would want to remember to stop and close Joal and then vice versa.

    Eitherways, thanks again, I hope trackers don't detect it.

    Likely yes, since even if the client you're using (and emulating in JOAL) uses an individual peer_id and key, the port number will differ.

    Note that you can run both programs at the same; most trackers won't even notice, plus there are legitimate reasons to seed from multiple clients in the same computer. It's just not recommended, because as a cheater you want to blend in, not stand out.

    I noticed an aberration when checking for active torrents on a tracker. There was duplicate entries on same torrent from different IPs. i.e. all of the torrents that I was seeding were showing twice. As soon as I realzed I stopped the seeding. I didn't notice it earlier. Not sure what must have happened.

    An aberration

    Any chances your IP simply changed in the middle of the session? I once wrote a script that runs in the background and warns you when that happens.

    I doubt if my IP changed. After I resumed seeding it picked up correct IP and duplication was no longer visible.
    Also I suppose, if IP changes, it would change for last few digits. This was a very different IP altogether.

    The IP change link is Windows only Days of Windows were so nice.

    Hi colousit thanks for your feedback :)

    The double / seed is indeed weird. Anon's should be right, the tracker may have registered two differents IPs. I'd lik to mention that the IP can change completly between two attributions it's not just a matter of one or two digits nor it is of range (event if there is some kind of a range but....).
    One can have 2.15.45.32 and claim another IP two sec latter an end up with 96.48.128.205.
    This is my signature. There are many others like it, but this one is mine.

    Thumbs up

    This is such a ridiculously well made tool! I've been using the CLI version for a while now. I use it on my seedbox when I don't want to keep several 100 GB torrent files real-seeding and taking space. Good job!

    This script should output all IPv4 address blocks owned by your ISP. It's simple enough to probably work on the Mac OS terminal too.

    Code:
    #!/bin/sh
    IP=$(wget -q -O - http://ipcheck1.jdownloader.org/)
    AS=$(wget -q -O - https://ipinfo.io/$IP/org | cut -f 1 -d " ")
    wget -q -O - https://stat.ripe.net/data/announced-prefixes/data.yaml?min_peers_seeing=0&resource=$AS | grep prefix\: | grep -v \:\: | awk '{print $3}'

    Hello, my torrents are getting all archived after a while. I suppose it's because announcing is failing. My area has a lot of power surges and internet blackouts lately. Can you make an option in the app to change this behavior? This is relly frustrating.

    Hello,
    I'm curently rewriting the whole project in another language, the feature you asks is already implemented in this new version, torrents won't go away on errors out network failures, they'll be set a zero speed until a successfull announce occurs again.
    But i'm not quite done yet, i expect the new version to be out in the next few months.
