Bittorrent library does not work!

[ujjwalt]

The most active bittorrent app in go is https://github.com/jackpal/Taipei-Torrent and it crashes on my system. I have no clue what to do if this is persistent on all systems than to switch to direct downloads right now for the implementation. We'll need to create our own bittorrent library later on if we're selected. Does it work on your system?

Let me check!

Giving error in linux too :

"error: The requested URL returned error: 401 while accessing https://github.com/jackpal/Taipen-Torrent/info/refs

fatal: HTTP request failed package github.com/jackpal/Taipen-Torrent: exit status 128"

Windows :-1:

cd .; hg clone -U https://code.google.com/p/vitess C:\Go\src\pkg\code.google.c

om\p\vitess package github.com/jackpal/Taipei-Torrent imports code.google.com/p/bencode-go imports github.com/hailiang/gosocks imports github.com/nictuku/dht imports code.google.com/p/vitess/go/cache: exec: "hg": executable file n ot found in %PATH%

In mine it starts off and then crashes. So right now no bittorrent. Direct downloads for the code we submit. We'll try to incorporate all these by 16th. I'll fork it and modify to run on osx

In windows now it works after installing mercurial, did you installed mercurial?

[ujjwalt]

Ya i have mercurial!

@karimkhanp Lol what happened to this? Should I delete the repo?

[karimkhanp]

@ujjwalt Put on hold for ever I guess. But someone may be benefited if by mistake comes here : ). Keep it, if not creating any harm

[ujjwalt]

Is there anything worthwhile here? I mean the implementation is incomplete and does not work. I'll keep it for the time being though!

May not be useful anymore, delete it if you want : )
