btt_xml2db(8)
NAME
- btt_xml2db - Import infohash records from an XML document
- into a tracker database
SYNOPSIS
btt_xml2db [--master] [--verbose] backup.xml
/path/to/tracker
DESCRIPTION
- btt_xml2db reads the XML document specified on the comman
- dline and imports any "Infohash" records found into a mod_bt
- database. If any of the specified infohashes already exist in the
- tracker database, they will be replaced. The XML document should
- be one that was generated with btt_db2xml.
- The "Peers", "Seeds", and "Shields" counts from the XML
- document are discarded; these fields are instead set to the
- counts of who is actually connected to the tracker, or "0" if
- this is a new infohash.
- btt_xml2db can be used to create a new tracker database,
- like so:
mkdir /tmp/new_database
btt_xml2db --master --verbose backup.xml- /tmp/new_database
SWITCHES
- --master
- Connect to the database as it's master; you should use
- this option only if no other processes are connected to the
- database.
- --verbose
- Print the infohash string and filename of each info
- hash as it's being inserted into the database.
- --help
- Displays brief usage instructions.
BUGS
- The path to the tracker must be an absolute path, relative
- paths are not permitted. This is a limitation of Berkeley DB that
- will be addressed in a future version.
