<p>libtorrent has a <a class="reference external" href="reference-Plugins.html#plugin">plugin</a> interface for implementing extensions to the protocol.
|
|
These can be general extensions for transferring metadata or peer exchange
|
|
extensions, or it could be used to provide a way to customize the protocol
|
|
to fit a particular (closed) network.</p>
|
|
<p>In short, the <a class="reference external" href="reference-Plugins.html#plugin">plugin</a> interface makes it possible to:</p>
|
|
<ul class="simple">
|
|
<li>register extension messages (sent in the extension handshake), see

|
<a class="reference external" href="extension_protocol.html">extensions</a>.</li>
|
|
<li>add data and parse data from the extension handshake.</li>
|
|
<li>send extension messages and standard bittorrent messages.</li>
|
|
<li>override or block the handling of standard bittorrent messages.</li>
|
|
<li>save and restore state via the <a class="reference external" href="reference-Session.html#session">session</a> state</li>
|
|
<li>see all alerts that are posted</li>

</ul>

<h2>a word of caution</h2>
|
|
<p>Writing your own <a class="reference external" href="reference-Plugins.html#plugin">plugin</a> is a very easy way to introduce serious bugs such as
|
|
dead locks and race conditions. Since a <a class="reference external" href="reference-Plugins.html#plugin">plugin</a> has access to internal
|
|
structures it is also quite easy to sabotage libtorrent's operation.</p>
|
|
<p>All the callbacks in this interface are called with the main libtorrent thread
|
|
mutex locked. And they are always called from the libtorrent network thread. In
|
|
case portions of your <a class="reference external" href="reference-Plugins.html#plugin">plugin</a> are called from other threads, typically the main
|
|
thread, you cannot use any of the member functions on the internal structures
|
|
in libtorrent, since those require the mutex to be locked. Futhermore, you would
|
|
also need to have a mutex on your own shared data within the <a class="reference external" href="reference-Plugins.html#plugin">plugin</a>, to make
|
|
sure it is not accessed at the same time from the libtorrent thread (through a
|
|
callback). See <a class="reference external" href="http://www.boost.org/doc/html/mutex.html">boost thread's mutex</a>. If you need to send out a message from
|
|
another thread, it is advised to use an internal queue, and do the actual
|
|
sending in <tt class="docutils literal">tick()</tt>.</p>
|
|
<p>Since the <a class="reference external" href="reference-Plugins.html#plugin">plugin</a> interface gives you easy access to internal structures, it
|
|
is not supported as a stable API. Plugins should be considered spcific to a
|
|
specific version of libtorrent. Although, in practice the internals mostly
|
|
don't change that dramatically.</p>
|

<div class="section" id="plugin-interface">
|
|
<h1>plugin-interface</h1>
|
|
<p>The <a class="reference external" href="reference-Plugins.html#plugin">plugin</a> interface consists of three base classes that the <a class="reference external" href="reference-Plugins.html#plugin">plugin</a> may
|
|
implement. These are called <a class="reference external" href="reference-Plugins.html#plugin">plugin</a>, <a class="reference external" href="reference-Plugins.html#torrent_plugin">torrent_plugin</a> and <a class="reference external" href="reference-Plugins.html#peer_plugin">peer_plugin</a>.
|
|
They are found in the <tt class="docutils literal"><libtorrent/extensions.hpp></tt> header.</p>
|
|
<p>These plugins are instantiated for each <a class="reference external" href="reference-Session.html#session">session</a>, torrent and possibly each peer,
|
|
respectively.</p>
|
|
<p>For plugins that only need per torrent state, it is enough to only implement
|
|
<tt class="docutils literal">torrent_plugin</tt> and pass a constructor function or function object to
|
|
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">session::add_extension()</span></tt> or <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">torrent_handle::add_extension()</span></tt> (if the
|
|
torrent has already been started and you want to hook in the extension at
|
|
run-time).</p>
|
|
<p>The signature of the function is:</p>
|
|
<pre class="literal-block">
|
|
boost::shared_ptr<torrent_plugin> (*)(torrent*, void*);
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<p>The first argument is the internal torrent object, the second argument
|
|
is the userdata passed to <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">session::add_torrent()</span></tt> or
|
|
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">torrent_handle::add_extension()</span></tt>.</p>
|
|
<p>The function should return a <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">boost::shared_ptr<torrent_plugin></span></tt> which
|
|
may or may not be 0. If it is a null pointer, the extension is simply ignored
|
|
for this torrent. If it is a valid pointer (to a class inheriting
|
|
<tt class="docutils literal">torrent_plugin</tt>), it will be associated with this torrent and callbacks
|
|
will be made on torrent events.</p>
|
|
<p>For more elaborate plugins which require <a class="reference external" href="reference-Session.html#session">session</a> wide state, you would
|
|
implement <tt class="docutils literal">plugin</tt>, construct an object (in a <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">boost::shared_ptr</span></tt>) and pass
|
|
it in to <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">session::add_extension()</span></tt>.</p>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<div class="section" id="custom-alerts">
|
|
<h1>custom alerts</h1>
|
|
<p>Since plugins are running within internal libtorrent threads, one convenient
|
|
way to communicate with the client is to post custom alerts.</p>
|
|
<p>The expected interface of any <a class="reference external" href="reference-Alerts.html#alert">alert</a>, apart from deriving from the <a class="reference external" href="reference-Alerts.html#alert">alert</a>
|
|
base class, looks like this:</p>
|
|
<pre class="literal-block">
|
|
const static int alert_type = <em><unique alert ID></em>;
|
|
virtual int type() const { return alert_type; }
|
|
|
|
virtual std::string message() const;
|
|
|
|
virtual std::auto_ptr<alert> clone() const
|
|
{ return std::auto_ptr<alert>(new name(*this)); }
|
|
|
|
const static int static_category = <em><bitmask of alert::category_t flags></em>;
|
|
virtual int category() const { return static_category; }
|
|
|
|
virtual char const* what() const { return <em><string literal of the name of this alert></em>; }
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<p>The <tt class="docutils literal">alert_type</tt> is used for the type-checking in <tt class="docutils literal">alert_cast</tt>. It must
|
|
not collide with any other <a class="reference external" href="reference-Alerts.html#alert">alert</a>. The built-in alerts in libtorrent will
|
|
not use <a class="reference external" href="reference-Alerts.html#alert">alert</a> type IDs greater than <tt class="docutils literal">user_alert_id</tt>. When defining your
|
|
own <a class="reference external" href="reference-Alerts.html#alert">alert</a>, make sure it's greater than this constant.</p>
|
|
<p><tt class="docutils literal">type()</tt> is the run-time equivalence of the <tt class="docutils literal">alert_type</tt>.</p>
|
|
<p>The <tt class="docutils literal">message()</tt> virtual function is expected to construct a useful
|
|
string representation of the <a class="reference external" href="reference-Alerts.html#alert">alert</a> and the event or data it represents.
|
|
Something convenient to put in a log file for instance.</p>
|
|
<p><tt class="docutils literal">clone()</tt> is used internally to copy alerts. The suggested implementation
|
|
of simply allocating a new instance as a copy of <tt class="docutils literal">*this</tt> is all that's
|
|
expected.</p>
|
|
<p>The static category is required for checking wether or not the category
|
|
for a specific <a class="reference external" href="reference-Alerts.html#alert">alert</a> is enabled or not, without instantiating the <a class="reference external" href="reference-Alerts.html#alert">alert</a>.
|
|
The <tt class="docutils literal">category</tt> virtual function is the run-time equivalence.</p>
|
|
<p>The <tt class="docutils literal">what()</tt> virtual function may simply be a string literal of the class
|
|
name of your <a class="reference external" href="reference-Alerts.html#alert">alert</a>.</p>
|
|
<p>For more information, see the <a class="reference external" href="reference-Alerts.html">alert section</a>.</p>
