The example in this article describes how to use Python on the Linux platform to create BT seeds and obtain BT seed information. I would like to share it with you for your reference. The details are as follows:
I recently studied the establishment of a Linux BT server environment. I need to create BT seeds and obtain BT seed information under Linux. I have sorted out the process:
Create the download address of this website for BT seed software.
Installation:
[root@localhost src]# tar zxf mktorrent-1.0.tar.gz [root@localhost src]# cd mktorrent-1.0 [root@localhost mktorrent-1.0]# make [root@localhost mktorrent-1.0]# make install [root@localhost ~]# which mktorrent /usr/local/bin/mktorrent
Requires python’s bencode module to obtain BT seed information, download address: https://pypi.python.org/packages/source/b /bencode/bencode-1.0.tar.gz.
Installation:
#tar -zxf bencode-1.0.tar.gz #cd bencode-1.0.tar.gz #python setup.py install
The python script produced and verified is as follows:
#!/usr/bin/env python # -*- coding: utf-8 -*- import os, re, time, sys import hashlib, bencode file_name = 'bt_test.exe' bt_source = '/data/updir/%s' % file_name bt_name = '/data/source/%s.torrent' % file_name if os.path.exists(bt_name): os.remove(bt_name) if os.path.exists(bt_source): conm = "/usr/local/bin/mktorrent -v -p -l 18 -a http://bt1.text.cn/announce -a http://bt2.text.cn/announce -o %s %s" % (bt_name,bt_source) res = os.popen(conm).readlines()[-1].strip() if 'done' in res: bt_path = {} bt_file = open(bt_name, 'rb') bt_info = bencode.bdecode(bt_file.read()).get('info') bt_info_hash_hex = hashlib.sha1(bencode.bencode(bt_info)).hexdigest() if os.path.isdir(bt_source): bt_file_size = 0 for length in bt_info.get('files'): bt_file_size = bt_file_size + int(length['length']) bt_path['/'.join(length['path'])] = length['length'] else: bt_file_size = bt_info.get('length') bt_file_name = bt_info.get('name') bt_path[bt_file_name]=bt_file_size bt_file.close() print bt_path print "Create torrent success" else: print "Create torrent Error" sys.exit() else: print "This source not find" sys.exit()
file_name is The name of the file or directory to be seeded.
I hope this article will be helpful to everyone in Python programming.
