Installation
The recommended way of installing this addon is through its repository. This way, any updates will be automatically installed.
Although not recommended, one can install the addon without installing its repository. To do so, get the
latest release from github.
Do NOT use the Download ZIP button on this page. Please note that, if there are any additional dependencies, they
won't be resolved unless the repository is installed.
Calling torrest from other addon
One can call torrest from other addons. To do so, simply use torrest API:
| Url | Description |
|---|---|
plugin://plugin.video.torrest/play_magnet?magnet=<magnet> |
Plays the provided <magnet> |
plugin://plugin.video.torrest/play_url?url=<url> |
Plays the provided torrent file <url> |
plugin://plugin.video.torrest/play_path?path=<path> |
Plays the provided torrent file path <path> |
The above methods support file_id (the file index, integer) and buffer (enable buffering before playing, boolean)
as query arguments. By default file_id is undefined and buffer is set to true. Below is an example of a method
call using these arguments:
plugin://plugin.video.torrest/play_magnet?magnet=<magnet>&file_id=1&buffer=falseScreenshots
