s-torrent

A simple torrent-daemon in C++ using libtorrent-rasterbar with a ncurses-frontend.

This client is in a state that I would consider usable. That being said, I wouldn't realy recommend using it ( I don't ) because of it still lacking a ton of features like dht, proxies and peer exchange.

There still might be some usefull snippets of code in here, so feel free to look around.

Usage

NOTE: This client will only work on linux because of the socket headers I used.

After compiling the program, first start the server, then the client.

./cmake.sh setup
./s-torrent-server&
./s-torrent

NOTE: If you want to run the server on a server, you will have to change the "server_address" value in config.json

This project uses:

• libtorrent-rasterbar for everything torrent related
• ncurses for the interface
• jsoncpp for JSON-parsing, which is used for network-communication
• The event system code from 2D-engine, which is used in the daemon
• The files from here, for base64 en- and decoding
