Code to remove keys from tracker links

[somus1735]

Hello me and a friend made a little code to remove any secret keys from tracker links

Row 791 in js/webui.js
Code:
var pattern = new RegExp("^https?://[a-z0-9]*\.?[a-z0-9\-]+\.[a-z0-9\:]+\/","i");
var resultat = pattern.exec(trk['name']);
trk['name'] = resultat[0];
Maybe some dev want to integrate this into the next version also ?

[edit] There is some other way it collects the data for the general tab, but it seems to be overwritten when some asyncron read is done. i havent found out how it collects the first value yet.

what is the reason for this? i dont' quite see the point.


(not meant as an insult, meant as an honest question, why is this needed exactly?)

i think he only want hide the passkey in tracker tab. As this we cannot stole it. But if he want remove it from the .torrent, it's not a good choise because it will not work anymore...

It is just for display purposes

We have a multi user system with around 15 users, thats why I removed it.
Not that I think anyone will try anything but its still better that its not there.

Beside that it looks cleaner without it

 

[dsouvik215]

if the multi user system is set up properly it should be one user with hsi own rtorrent instance, are you saying you have 15 users sharing a single login?

that's strange =)

cool deal though, it does look cool

Aye all use the same rtorrent.

A small fix for the above if someone plan to use it

Code:
var pattern = new RegExp("^https?://[a-z0-9]*\.?[a-z0-9\-]+\.[a-z0-9\:]+\/","i");
var resultat = pattern.exec(trk['name']);
try { trk['name'] = resultat[0]; }
catch(err){}

Next fix


Code:
var pattern = new RegExp("^https?://[a-z0-9]*\.?[a-z0-9\-]+\.[a-z0-9\:]+\/","i");
var resultat = pattern.exec(trk['name']);
try {
if (resultat )
trk['name'] = resultat[0];
}
catch(err){}
