<h1>overview</h1>
|
|
<p>This section describes the functions and classes that are used
|
|
to create torrent files. It is a layered API with low level classes
|
|
and higher level convenience functions. A torrent is created in 4
|
|
steps:</p>
|
|
<ol class="arabic simple">
|
|
<li>first the files that will be part of the torrent are determined.</li>
|
|
<li>the torrent properties are set, such as tracker url, web seeds,
|
|
DHT nodes etc.</li>
|
|
<li>Read through all the files in the torrent, SHA-1 all the data
|
|
and set the piece hashes.</li>
|
|
<li>The torrent is bencoded into a file or buffer.</li>
|
|
</ol>
|
|
<p>If there are a lot of files and or deep directoy hierarchies to
|
|
traverse, step one can be time consuming.</p>
|
|
<p>Typically step 3 is by far the most time consuming step, since it
|
|
requires to read all the bytes from all the files in the torrent.</p>
|
|
<p>All of these classes and functions are declared by including
|
|
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">libtorrent/create_torrent.hpp</span></tt>.</p>

<p>Adds a file to the file storage. The <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">flags</span></tt> argument sets attributes on the file.

The file attributes is an extension and may not work in all bittorrent clients.

<pre class="literal-block">

attribute_hidden

attribute_executable

</pre>
|
|
<p>If more files than one are added, certain restrictions to their paths apply.
|
|
In a multi-file file storage (torrent), all files must share the same root directory.</p>
|
|
<p>That is, the first path element of all files must be the same.
|
|
This shared path element is also set to the name of the torrent. It
|
|
can be changed by calling <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">set_name</span></tt>.</p>
|
|
<p>The built in functions to traverse a directory to add files will
|
|
make sure this requirement is fulfilled.</p>

<p>The <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">piece_size</span></tt> is the size of each piece in bytes. It must
|
|
be a multiple of 16 kiB. If a piece size of 0 is specified, a
|
|
piece_size will be calculated such that the torrent file is roughly 40 kB.</p>
|
|
<p>If a <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">pad_size_limit</span></tt> is specified (other than -1), any file larger than
|
|
the specified number of bytes will be preceeded by a pad file to align it
|
|
with the start of a piece. The pad_file_limit is ignored unless the
|
|
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">optimize</span></tt> flag is passed.</p>
|
|
<p>The overload that takes a <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">torrent_info</span></tt> object will make a verbatim
|
|
copy of its info dictionary (to preserve the info-hash). The copy of
|
|
the info dictionary will be used by <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">generate()</span></tt>. This means
|
|
that none of the member functions of create_torrent that affects
|
|
the content of the info dictionary (such as <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">set_hash()</span></tt>), will
|
|
have any affect.</p>
|
|
<p>The <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">flags</span></tt> arguments specifies options for the torrent creation. It can
|
|
be any combination of the following flags:</p>
|
|
<dl class="docutils">
|
|
<dt>optimize</dt>
|
|
<dd>This will insert pad files to align the files to piece boundaries, for
|
|
optimized disk-I/O.</dd>
|
|
<dt>merkle</dt>
|
|
<dd>This will create a merkle hash tree torrent. A merkle torrent cannot
|
|
be opened in clients that don't specifically support merkle torrents.
|
|
The benefit is that the resulting torrent file will be much smaller and
|
|
not grow with more pieces. When this option is specified, it is
|
|
recommended to have a fairly small piece size, say 64 kiB.</dd>
|

<dd>This will include the file modification time as part of the torrent.
|

This is not enabled by default, as it might cause problems when you
|
|
create a torrent from separate files with the same content, hoping to
|
|
yield the same info-hash. If the files have different modification times,
|
|
with this option enabled, you would get different info-hashes for the

|
files.</dd>
|
|
<dt>symlink</dt>
|
|
<dd>If this flag is set, files that are symlinks get a symlink attribute
|
|
set on them and their data will not be included in the torrent. This
|
|
is useful if you need to reconstruct a file hierarchy which contains
|
|
symlinks.</dd>

<dt>calculate_file_hashes</dt>

<dd>If this is set, the <a class="reference internal" href="#set-piece-hashes">set_piece_hashes()</a> function will, as it calculates

the piece hashes, also calculate the file hashes and add those associated

with each file. Note that unless you use the <a class="reference internal" href="#set-piece-hashes">set_piece_hashes()</a> function,

this flag will have no effect.</dd>

|
|
<p>This function will generate the .torrent file as a bencode tree. In order to
|
|
generate the flat file, use the bencode() function.</p>
|
|
<p>It may be useful to add custom entries to the torrent file before bencoding it
|
|
and saving it to disk.</p>
|
|
<p>If anything goes wrong during torrent generation, this function will return
|
|
an empty <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">entry</span></tt> structure. You can test for this condition by querying the
|
|
type of the entry:</p>
|
|
<pre class="literal-block">
|
|
file_storage fs;
|
|
// add file ...
|
|
create_torrent t(fs);
|
|
// add trackers and piece hashes ...
|
|
e = t.generate();
|
|
|
|
if (e.type() == entry::undefined_t)
|
|
{
|
|
// something went wrong
|
|
}
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<p>For instance, you cannot generate a torrent with 0 files in it. If you don't add
|
|
any files to the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">file_storage</span></tt>, torrent generation will fail.</p>

<p>This sets the SHA-1 hash for the specified piece (<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">index</span></tt>). You are required

to set the hash for every piece in the torrent before generating it. If you have

|

<p>This adds a url seed to the torrent. You can have any number of url seeds. For a

single file torrent, this should be an HTTP url, pointing to a file with identical

content as the file of the torrent. For a multi-file torrent, it should point to

a directory containing a directory with the same name as this torrent, and all the

files of the torrent in it.</p>

|
|
<p>This adds a DHT node to the torrent. This especially useful if you're creating a

|
tracker less torrent. It can be used by clients to bootstrap their DHT node from.
|
|
The node is a hostname and a port number where there is a DHT node running.

You can have any number of DHT nodes in a torrent.</p>

|
|
<p>Adds a tracker to the torrent. This is not strictly required, but most torrents
|
|
use a tracker as their main source of peers. The url should be an <a class="reference external" href="http://">http://</a> or udp://
|
|
url to a machine running a bittorrent tracker that accepts announces for this torrent's
|
|
info-hash. The tier is the fallback priority of the tracker. All trackers with tier 0 are
|
|
tried first (in any order). If all fail, trackers with tier 1 are tried. If all of those
|
|
fail, trackers with tier 2 are tried, and so on.</p>
