Features

Some of the features:

• automatically choose the most reliable trackers from ngosang/trackerslist

• add webseeds to torrents
• create private torrents (disabled DHT, ...)
• exclude specific files/folders
• exclude files/folders based on regular expressions
• specify custom piece sizes
• specify custom creation dates

Basic usage

Creating a torrent is as simple as:

py3createtorrent -t udp://tracker.opentrackr.org:1337/announce file_or_folder

The shortcut bestN can be used for conveniently adding the best N trackers from ngosang/trackerslist. Example:

py3createtorrent -t best3 file_or_folder

Multiple trackers can also be specified manually by using -t multiple times, for example:

py3createtorrent -t udp://tracker.opentrackr.org:1337/announce -t udp://tracker.cyberia.is:6969/announce file_or_folder
