Compact peer encoding
This package also includes functions for ‘compact’ peer encoding as per bep 0023. Though not part of bencode itself, compact peer encoding is often used with it. Mainline DHT and most trackers encode peer information in this format.
Usage:
from bencode.misc import pack_compact_peers_list, unpack_compact_peers_list
pack_compact_peers_list((('127.0.0.1', 8080), ('127.0.0.1', 9090)))
b'\x7f\x00\x00\x01\x1f\x90\x7f\x00\x00\x01#\x82'
unpack_compact_peers_list(b'\x7f\x00\x00\x01\x1f\x90\x7f\x00\x00\x01#\x82')
(('127.0.0.1', 8080), ('127.0.0.1', 9090))1 maintainer
