mintd

a minimal torrent daemon written in C++

Warning

EXPERIMENTAL SOFTWARE. THERE IS SOME HACKY STUFF, WILL BE FIXED LATER.

ipc header protocol

Caution

This protocol is subject to change whenever i feel like it, however the example client will always be up to date.

• 16 bit magic: "MT"
• 16 bit cmd
• the rest depends on the cmd

To see an example client implementation, see client.py.

Building

cd src
meson setup build
cd build
meson compile

Rough TODO

these mainly have to do with decreasing hackiness.

• Improve packet parsing
• Reconsider how errors are handled (fatal / nonfatal)
