lava_torrent

lava_torrent is a library for parsing/encoding/creating bencode and .torrent files.

NOTE: lava_torrent is now in maintenance mode. Bugs will still be fixed, but no new features will be released. If you need something, feel free to fork.

Quick Start

Read a torrent (v1) and print it and its info hash.

use lava_torrent::torrent::v1::Torrent;

let torrent = Torrent::read_from_file("sample.torrent").unwrap();
println!("{}", torrent);
println!("Info hash: {}", torrent.info_hash());

Create a torrent (v1) from files in a directory and save the .torrent file.

use lava_torrent::torrent::v1::TorrentBuilder;

let torrent = TorrentBuilder::new("dir/", 1048576).build().unwrap();
torrent.write_into_file("sample.torrent").unwrap();

Bencode (de)serialization.

use lava_torrent::bencode::BencodeElem;

let bytes = "d4:spam4:eggse".as_bytes();
let dict = BencodeElem::Dictionary([("spam".to_owned(), "eggs".into())].into());

assert_eq!(BencodeElem::from_bytes(bytes).unwrap()[0], dict);
assert_eq!(dict.encode(), bytes);

assert!(dict.write_into_file("/tmp/foo").is_ok());
assert_eq!(BencodeElem::from_file("/tmp/foo").unwrap()[0], dict);
