subtl

Overview

SUBTL is a simple UDP BitTorrent tracker library for Python, licenced under the modified BSD license.

Example

This short example will list a few IP Addresses from a certain hash:

from subtl import UdpTrackerClient
utc = UdpTrackerClient('tracker.openbittorrent.com', 80)
utc.connect()
if not utc.poll_once():
    raise Exception('Could not connect')
print('Success!')

utc.announce(info_hash='089184ED52AA37F71801391C451C5D5ADD0D9501')
data = utc.poll_once()
if not data:
    raise Exception('Could not announce')
for a in data['response']['peers']:
    print(a)

Caveats

• There is no automatic retrying of sending packets yet.
• This library won't download torrent files--it is simply a tracker client.
