Hi Tutor folks
I am trying to achieve the following :
The user should log into a web app, select a file & the web app should
generate a .torrent file & a private
tracker(http://IP_ADDRESS:PORT_NUMBER/announce) for that .torrent file.
Basically, i want to programmatically create a .torrent file, on the
server side.
I found two libraries mktorrent[1] & py3createtorrent [2], but i need
help with how to create a torrent from a django web app.
Any suggestions for django modules or libraries which can do this ?
You don't need Django specific modules, just use the ones you linked and
install them on your server. It doesn't matter if you call it from a
script on your desktop or a Django webapp.
Looking at the example on Wikipedia [1], it's not hard to create it
manually. It even looks like a JSON file, you'll just need a way to
bencode the data.
