Seeding file from server about instant.io HOT 7 CLOSED

Seeding without internet is possible, but you'll need to run your own STUN server inside your NAT. It's required by WebRTC.

I'm not sure what you're asking in your second question. Can you clarify?

1. I found a config to websocket global.WEBTORRENT_ANNOUNCE = [ 'wss://tracker.webtorrent.io' ]. What is it for?
2. In steps:
   User upload file and share hash to other user inside NAT.
   He close the seeding although the other one is starting to download.
   How can I seed the uploaded file on the server by itself when nobody of clients are seeding?

1. That just tells WebTorrent to always use that tracker, without requiring that you pass it into every webtorrent.download or webtorrent.seed call.
2. You need to have a way to tell your server to also download the file and keep a copy there. You could just upload it to the server with an XHR request. Then your server could be a web seed once that feature's implemented :)

I upload the file to directory /upload. Cd to /upload and typed in console webtorrent seed . In browser i open and paste infoHas but nothing is happed.
I try to seed in console and download in browser, or seed in browser and download in console - in both they it doesn't work.

You need to use https://github.com/feross/webtorrent-hybrid

It's almost the same command. Try webtorrent-hybrid seed . instead.

It looks like you're using an old version of webtorrent-hybrid. That's a bug that I fixed a while ago. You can check the version with webtorrent-hybrid -v. It should be 0.49.1. If it's not, update with npm install webtorrent-hybrid -g
