Hello there! Welcome to this example project demonstrating how to create LibTorrent bindings for the Dart language. I hope you find it helpful and informative.
Everything started from here dart-lang/native#218
Before diving in, make sure you have the following prerequisites installed:
- Ensure libtorrent shared library is installed on your system and recognized by the compiler using the flag
-ltorrent-rasterbar. - If you have libtorrent source files in a custom path, update the
wrapper/Makefileaccordingly. - You'll also need to have the Dart SDK installed.
- The
wrapper/Makefilecontains various useful rules to streamline the development process:
- debug: Builds a test binary with gdb flag enabled for testing/debugging process.
- run: Similar to
debug, but it also runs the binary after building. - build: This rule is responsible for building the wrapper library:
libwrapper.soby default.
- To build the wrapper library, execute the following command:
make buildOnce you've built the wrapper library, follow these steps to run the example project:
- Copy the library file
libwrapper.sointo the Dart project directory. - Get dart packages
dart pub get- Run the project using the following command:
dart runIf you want to dive deeper into LibTorrent, here are some helpful resources:
