Light BitTorrent hosting
Transmission hosting on Appbox. A minimal client and daemon with web access, encryption, magnet links, DHT, and PEX, installed in one click on your subdomain.
What you get with Transmission hosting
The upstream client you know, packaged for Appbox with TLS and clear connection details on the installed app page.
Daemon and web UI
transmission-daemon serves the official web interface so you add torrents, pause queues, and read stats from a browser without a desktop session.
Clean interface
Toolbar actions, filters, transfer counts, and speed readouts stay readable on large monitors and smaller viewports alike.
Magnets and peers
Magnet links, encryption, DHT, and PEX behave like the desktop builds you already use for public and private swarms.
Limits and scheduling
Bandwidth caps, alternative speed mode, and queue ordering help you stay inside host and plan limits while seeding or grabbing large sets.
HTTP basic auth
The username and password you set at install protect the web UI, which fits hosting on a shared platform.
HTTPS URL
The Overview tab lists your Web UI link, RPC port details, and copy actions so you can script against JSON-RPC with the values shown there.

Running it on Appbox
How the platform wraps Transmission without changing the upstream feature set.
Single-container app
Daemon, web assets, and data directories live in one Appbox app with persistent volumes for configuration and downloads paths the image defines.
RPC endpoints
Non-SSL and SSL RPC port values resolve on the Overview tab after install so desktop tools and scripts can target the same daemon the web UI uses.
Automation friendly
JSON-RPC matches upstream Transmission expectations, so community scripts and wrappers that speak the standard API remain applicable.
Resource visibility
CPU, RAM, and disk charts on the installed app page show whether Per-App Boost or a plan change would help heavy seeding workloads.
