Generating torrent from Magnet link? #45

Closed ffMathy closed 4 years ago

ffMathy commented 4 years ago

Can this library generate a torrent file from a Magnet link? I noticed it can go the other way.

Krusen commented 4 years ago

No, because the Magnet link only contains the info hash and trackers and the list of files cannot be recreated from that.
