Introduction

The Magnet Parser library allows users to decode magnet links, extracting essential metadata such as the info hash, name, and tracker URLs. This functionality is particularly useful for applications that manage or interact with torrent files, enabling seamless integration with torrent clients.

Installation

To install the magnet_parser library, you can use pip:

pip install magnet-parser

from magnet_parser import *

# Example magnet link
magnet_link = "magnet:?xt=urn:btih:93014BF4D458EC39A16C7D3615E3CFBAE42144CC&dn=Winged+Migration+%282001%29+720p+BluRay&tr=http%3A%2F%2Fp4p.arenabg.com%3A1337%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2F47.ip-51-68-199.eu%3A6969%2Fannounce"

# Decode the magnet link
decoded = magnet_decode(magnet_link)

# Access the decoded information
print(decoded.__dict__)

Output expected

{
    'xt': 'urn:btih:93014BF4D458EC39A16C7D3615E3CFBAE42144CC',
    'info_hash': '93014bf4d458ec39a16c7d3615e3cfbae42144cc',
    'name': 'Winged Migration (2001) 720p BluRay',
    'tr': [
        'http://p4p.arenabg.com:1337/announce',
        'udp://47.ip-51-68-199.eu:6969/announce',
        'udp://9.rarbg.me:2780/announce',
        ...
    ],
    ...
}

Examples

Example 1: Basic Magnet Link

magnet_link = "magnet:?xt=urn:btih:ABC1234567890&dn=Example+File"
decoded = magnet_decode(magnet_link)
print(decoded.name)  # Output: Example File

Example 2: Magnet Link with Multiple Trackers

magnet_link = "magnet:?xt=urn:btih:DEF9876543210&dn=Another+Example&tr=udp://tracker.example.com:80/announce&tr=http://tracker.example.org:80/announce"
decoded = magnet_decode(magnet_link)
print(decoded.tr)  # Output: ['udp://tracker.example.com:80/announce', 'http://tracker.example.org:80/announce']
