Creating Torrents¶

 1         // 'path' is the location of the file/folder which is going to be converted
 2         // to a torrent. 'savePath' is where the .torrent file will be saved.
 3         void CreateTorrent(string path, string savePath)
 4         {
 5             // The class used for creating the torrent
 6             TorrentCreator c = new TorrentCreator();

 8             // Add one tier which contains two trackers
 9             List<string> tier = new List<string>();
10             tier.Add("http://www.example.com/announce");
11             tier.Add("http://backup.example.com/announce");
12 
13             c.Announces.Add(tier);

19             c.Private = true;
20 
21             // Path can be either a directory *or* a file.

23 
24             // Every time a piece has been hashed, this event will fire. It is an
25             // asynchronous event, so you have to handle threading yourself.
26             c.Hashed += delegate (object o, TorrentCreatorEventArgs e) {
27                 Console.WriteLine("Current File is {0}% hashed", e.FileCompletion);
