ocaml-bt

OCaml-BT is a small BitTorrent library and client written in OCaml. It uses Lwt for concurrency.

This is a preliminary release.

Installation

The easiest way is to use OPAM.

opam install bt

Alternatively, clone from git and install manually:

cd ~/tmp
git clone https://github.com/nojb/ocaml-bt
cd ocaml-bt
make
make install

Either way the end-result will be a OCaml library (findlib name: bt) and a executable otorrent.

Usage

Right now the only supported way to download torrents is via the use of magnet links, but other ways will hopefully be added soon. For example, the following will download the "Ubuntu 13.10 Desktop Live ISO amd64" torrent to your current working directory.

otorrent "magnet:?xt=urn:btih:e3811b9539cacff680e418124272177c47477157&dn=Ubuntu+13.10+Desktop+Live+ISO+amd64&tr=udp%3A//tracker.openbittorrent.com%3A80&tr=udp%3A//tracker.publicbt.com%3A80&tr=udp%3A//tracker.istole.it%3A6969&tr=udp%3A//tracker.ccc.de%3A80&tr=udp%3A//open.demonii.com%3A1337"
