# mtorrent-core

A collection of basic types for building asynchronous Tokio-based BitTorrent clients. Some of the features:
- peer wire protocol over TCP and uTP, using IPv4 or IPv6
- extended message protocol and Peer Exchange
- opt-in protocol encryption (aka message stream encryption)
- tracker protocol over HTTP and UDP, using IPv4 or IPv6
- parsing of metainfo files and magnet links
- rarest-first algorithm for downloading and seeding pieces
- storage and filesystem operations for reading and writing torrent data
- management of the states of connected peers

This crate is a part of the [`mtorrent`](https://crates.io/crates/mtorrent) client and examples of its usage can be found [here](https://github.com/DanglingPointer/mtorrent/tree/7aeacb6b70e19a36ef4c1db868f3e54a0755e4a0/mtorrent/src/ops). Note that most of the types must be used inside a [`tokio::LocalRuntime`](https://docs.rs/tokio/latest/tokio/runtime/struct.LocalRuntime.html).
