An HTML element you can use to display content on WebTorrent.
Usage:
<body>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/webtorrent-element@latest/dist/webtorrent-element.min.js"></script>
<web-torrent src="MAGNETURL" />
</body>Often a torrent contains many files but you only want to display one.
You can do this using the file attribute.
<web-torrent src="MAGNETURL" file="video.mp4"/>Here's some example code you can stick your application to get started. It loads and plays a Creative Commons video.
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/webtorrent-element@latest/dist/webtorrent-element.min.js"></script>
<web-torrent src="magnet:?xt=urn:btih:08ada5a7a6183aae1e09d831df6748d566095a10&dn=Sintel&tr=wss%3A%2F%2Ftracker.btorrent.xyz&tr=wss%3A%2F%2Ftracker.fastcast.nz&tr=wss%3A%2F%2Ftracker.openwebtorrent.com&ws=https%3A%2F%2Fwebtorrent.io%2Ftorrents%2F&xs=https%3A%2F%2Fwebtorrent.io%2Ftorrents%2Fsintel.torrent"
file="Sintel.mp4"
/>Since this is just a regular HTML element, and all the content appended as the torrent loads are regular elements, you can add style in your own app like you would any other HTML.
If you want to build the component into the JavaScript bundle of your app you can do so easily, but you'll need to handle loading a WebComponents polyfill on your own.
const WebTorrentComponent = require('webtorrent-element')
let elem = new WebTorrentComponent()
elem.src = MAGNETURL
elem.file = 'Sintel.mp4'
document.body.appendChild(elem)
