nodejs-rtorrent was created as a web gui for rtorrent. I wanted to create an alternative to rutorrent that used Node.js and this is the how far I got. The technologies used are Node.js, Express, MongoDB/TingoDB, Mongoose, tungus (for use with Mongoose), XML-RPC, FeedMe, Q (Promises), Passport, and Socket.IO. For the client side, I am using AngularJS, Browserify, Bower, and Twitter Bootstrap (using Scss). View the package.json and bower.json for more details.
We are looking for developers, please fork and tell us what you want to code and submit pull requests when done. We are active on our IRC channel #nodejs-rtorrent @ Freenode.
Special thanks to nwgat for testing, readme improvements and ideas :)
