libtorrent-js

Relaxed Bindings to some functionalities of Rasterbar LibTorrent ( ) for NodeJS

Building

So far it only been tested on MacOS (ml.10.8) but building on linux should be trivial

note that the static version of the libtorrent should be located on /usr/local/lib

1. node-gyp configure
2. node-gyp build

the resulting module should be in ./build/Release/torrent.node

Example

var addon = require('../build/Release/torrentjs');

var ses = addon.create_session();

ses.add_torrent('ubuntu.torrent');
ses.add_torrent('linuxmint-14.1-mate-dvd-32bit.iso.torrent');
ses.on('state_update_alert', on_state_change);

function on_state_change(status) {
        console.log('---- status ----');
        status.forEach( function(item) {
                console.log( item.name + ' : DL ' + (item.download_rate/1024) + ' kb/s |' + ' UL ' + (item.upload_rate/1024) + 'kb/s');

        });
}


function timeoutfunc() {
        ses.post_torrent_updates();
        ses.test++;
        ses.get_alerts();
        setTimeout(timeoutfunc, 1000);
}

timeoutfunc();
