Torrent client

A basic bittorrent client written in Go. To anyone who wants to try to make their own, take a look at this awesome blog post to get started: https://blog.jse.li/posts/torrent/. This is a great project to get an idea of how http, binary operations and channels work in Go.

Usage

If you have the project locally, you can use

go run . <path/to/torrent/file> <path/to/store/downloaded/file>

TODO

• Add support for magnet links
• Multiple file support
• Seeding
• Store intermediate downloaded parts to disk instead of memory
