      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...)

    Exclamation error on launch : torrents does not exists

    Hi,

    I'm trying to use joal in command line on Linux Ubuntu 18.04.
    I have 2 errors saying that both "clients" and "torrents" folders are missing.
    They are not missing FOR SURE, as i used .gz lastest archive, and both folders are showing alongside the config.json file.

    [WARN ] 2022-03-31 15:38:47.046 [ main] o.a.j.c.SeedManager: Sub-folder 'torrents' is missing in joal conf folder: /home/ubuntu/config.json/torrents
    [WARN ] 2022-03-31 15:38:47.048 [ main] o.a.j.c.SeedManager: Sub-folder 'clients' is missing in joal conf folder: /home/ubuntu/config.json/clients
    [ERROR] 2022-03-31 15:38:47.067 [ main] o.a.j.c.t.w.TorrentFileProvider: Folder /home/ubuntu/config.json/torrents does not exists.


    I've tried using different jre versions, different joal versions. Both folders are readable with appropriate permissions...

    Any idea?

    Thank you!

    If the directories do exist and are chmodded correctly, then this is very puzzling to me. I'd suggest running as root, but that seems unlikely to fix anything as the error is "-path- not found" and not "permission denied" (and would not be a true solution anyway). You lose nothing trying, though.

    error on launch : torrents does not exists

    Thank you for your reply :)

    Just tried with sudo but ran into the same problem. Both folders are drwxr-xr-x in the same location as config.json.

    Just in case here are the following error lines when running the jar:

    [WARN ] 2022-04-01 06:46:47.255 [ main] o.a.j.c.SeedManager: Sub-folder 'torrents' is missing in joal conf folder: /home/ubuntu/joal/config.json/torrents

    Weird :/

    This line made me realize something I should have noticed before... any chances you're passing the full path to config.json in your command line? Because JOAL expects a path to the directory that contains it instead, so you should be using --joal-conf="/home/ubuntu/" in your case (and don't forget the file system is case sensitive).

    Well done sir! I was passing the whole path in cluding "config.json".
    Started it with /home/ubuntu/joal/ and it worked!

    For some reason while reading the readme i got convinced i had to include the file name as well...

    Thank you!

    Nice! And fortunately this was a harmless mistake... one you wouldn't want to make with dd or shred instead, trust me.

    I have this use case:

    - ~40 torrents need to be seeded at 0 kb/s (to avoid Hit and Run warnings)
    - 1 torrent needs to be seeded at 100 kb/s ( a popular torrent with a big swarm)

    since joal does not support per torrent speed control, what would be the easiest way to achieve that ?
    2 side by side docker instance ? Whould that be noticable by the torrent tracker ?

    Your scenario is difficult to handle with a single instance. If those 40 torrents have zero leechers and you're completely sure this will always remain so, you can effectively ignore them as JOAL will never fake upload on torrents no one else is downloading, but that's a big if.

    Running two separate Docker containers is a good idea as long as your emulated client uses an individual peer_id and key. Since it's possible for programs in different containers to use the same listen port(s), this would render each one's activity indistinguishable from the other as far as trackers are concerned (but do check the logs on both to ensure this).

    Note your Docker bindings must account for the facts that 1. ports on the host (for accessing the Web UI) cannot be shared, 2. either instance must be reachable from the Internet at all times on the port it reports to the tracker if you want to show up as connectable.

    @anon,
    thanks,
    I abandonned this route, 2 java applet would lead to an heavy computionnal burden.

    Here is a modified version which will set a weight of 0, thus a speed of 0, for torrent whose filename starts with "HR".

    @anthony-joal - Can you increase the variance of the torrent speeds. I'm noticing multiple torrents with the same upload speeds. I can send a screenshot in pm if you want it.

    Is there a Transmission 4.0.0 or 4.0.1 client released yet?

    Sorry I do not have the knowledge to create it by myself.

    Thanks in advance.

    To all client file writers, make sure to double-check Transmission's peer_id generation policy from here onwards...

    Exclamation Safe to use this app?

    Is this app safe to use as it seem to be very old and not updated for along time?
