GO-TORRENT-CLIENT

A tiny torrent client written in Go that uses its own bencode parser. It works with HTTP trackers and UDP trackers.

Compliant with the following parts of the BitTorrent protocol:

• https://www.bittorrent.org/beps/bep_0003.html
• https://www.bittorrent.org/beps/bep_0012.html
• https://www.bittorrent.org/beps/bep_0015.html

Build

• git clone [email protected]:LeonardoKaftal/go-torrent-client.git
• cd go-torrent-client
• go build -o torrent-client

If you are on a UNIX-based system:

• chmod +x torrent-client
• ./torrent-client torrent-path output-path

If you are on Windows:

• torrent-client.exe torrent-path output-path

TODO

• Add multifile torrent support
• Add magnet link support
• Improve the performance (for example, by implementing a priority for each peer based on its speed)
