Installation

go get github.com/IncSW/go-bencode

import bencode "github.com/IncSW/go-bencode"

Quick Start

var dict interface{} = map[string]interface{}{
	"int":    123,
	"string": "Hello, World",
	"list":   []interface{}{"foo", "bar"},
}
data, err := bencode.Marshal(dict)
if err != nil {
	panic(err)
}
fmt.Println(string(data))

// Output:
// d3:inti123e4:listl3:foo3:bare6:string12:Hello, Worlde

data, err := bencode.Unmarshal(value)
