backend: local ?

[saveyour]

first, cool project.

second, i dont know node otherwise i'd be doing this myself (tried to, actually) but is there a way to just have local storage without a backend? i used the _template.js example to create a local.js that just does nada but for some reason it hangs after i try to load a torrent

not sure if thats a bug in something else, as even without my changes i couldn't get torrent-cloud to load a torrent and download successfully using the mega backend..

i guess it could be a port-forwarding issue as i'm using it inside of a lxc container on an ubuntu 14.04 vps

(a local or ftp backend would be tits)

Thanks, it's on the todo, just need to find time. As mentioned though in the README, I want to rewrite this is Go for portability and deployability so if I do get time (big work project atm) I'll most likely spend it on the Go version. Should be easier second time around, especially since I'll reuse the frontend.

exports.upload = function(torrentFile, callback) {
  var file = fs.createWriteStream("/my/path/" + torrentFile.path);
  var download = torrent.createStream();
  download.pipe(file);
  download.once('error', callback);
  download.once('close', callback);
};

Something like that should work. Currently, I'm using utorrent server for linux for locally stored torrents. Mainly wrote this for so I could download files directly to S3.

Closing this, version 2 writes downloads to disk
