script.module.torrent2http
|
||
|
==========================
|
||
|
|
||
|
This add-on is binding to [torrent2http](https://github.com/anteo/torrent2http) client.
|
||
|
It is bundled with torrent2http binaries for Android ARM, Linux x86/x64/ARM, Windows x86/x64 and Darwin/OSX x64 platforms.
|
||
|
You can download it from my [repository](http://bit.ly/184XKjm)
|
||
|
|
||
|
This add-on can be used to stream media files from torrents without need to download entire files.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Internally, it runs pre-compiled torrent2http client binary, which starts local HTTP server, presenting contents of torrent.
|
||
|
Next, request to HTTP server can be sent to receive list of files or to start streaming of needed file inside of torrent.
|
||
|

### Get list of files inside torrent ###
|
||
|
|
||
|
Getting list of files inside torrent is straightforward:
|
||
|
|
||
|
import xbmc
|
||
|
from torrent2http import State, Engine, MediaType
|
||
|
from contextlib import closing
|
||
|
|
||
|
# Create instance of Engine
|
||
|
engine = Engine(uri="...")
|
||
|
files = []
|
||
|
# Ensure we'll close engine on exception
|
||
|
with closing(engine):
|
||
|
# Start engine
|
||
|
engine.start()
|
||
|
# Wait until files received
|
||
|
while not files and not xbmc.abortRequested:
|
||
|
# Will list only video files in torrent
|
||
|
files = engine.list(media_types=[MediaType.VIDEO])
|
||
|
# Check if there is loading torrent error and raise exception
|
||
|
engine.check_torrent_error()
|
||
|
xbmc.sleep(200)
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Start streaming ###
|
||
|
|
||
|
import xbmc
|
||
|
from torrent2http import State, Engine, MediaType
|
||
|
from contextlib import closing
|
||
|
|
||
|
# We can know file_id of needed video file on this step, if no, we'll try to detect one.
|
||
|
file_id = None
|
||
|
engine = Engine(uri="...")
|
||
|
with closing(self.engine):
|
||
|
# Start engine and instruct torrent2http to begin download first file,
|
||
|
# so it can start searching and connecting to peers
|
||
|
self.engine.start(file_id or 0)
|
||
|
while not xbmc.abortRequested:
|
||
|
sleep(self.SLEEP_DELAY)
|
||
|
status = self.engine.status()
|
||
|
self.engine.check_torrent_error(status)
|
||
|
if status.state in [State.DOWNLOADING, State.FINISHED, State.SEEDING]:
|
||
|
ready = True
|
||
|
break
|
||
|
|
||
|
... todo ...
