BitTorrent backed streaming blob store, both read and write supported.
npm install torrent-blob-store
var torrents = require('torrent-blob-store')
var store = torrents()
// create a read stream to some star trek fan fiction
var rs = store.createReadStream({
link: 'magnet:?xt=urn:btih:ef330b39f4801d25b4245212e75a38634bfc856e',
index: 1 // get the file at index 1
})
rs.on('data', function(data) {
console.log('received:', data) // data received from peers
})
rs.on('end', function() {
console.log('(no more data)')
})You can pass in the same options in the blob store constructor as in torrent-stream.
All read streams needs link to be set. Currently only magnet links are supported
Torrent-blob store also lets you createWriteStream and provides you with a magnet link.
var Tracker = require('bittorrent-tracker').Server
var blob = require('torrent-blob-store')
var server = new Tracker({ http: true })
var concat = require('concat-stream')
server.listen(0, '127.0.0.1', function () {
var store = blob({
trackers: [
'http://localhost:' + server.http.address().port,
'udp://localhost:' + server.udp.address().port
]
})
var w = store.createWriteStream(function (err, res) {
console.log(res.link) // will print out the magnet link
store.createReadStream(res.link).pipe(concat(function (body) {
console.log(body.toString()) // will print 'whatever'
}))
})
w.end('whatever')
})MIT
