Bittorrent web based python install#
I hadn't noticed I wasn't using the default install because I was still able to install packages through pip etc. Furthermore, when I installed Anaconda, I let it add itself to my $PATH environment variable. It turns out I had two separate installations of Python3. I know next to nothing about C++, so I'm not sure if I'm missing something really obvious about compiling the library. Unfortunately, I still get the same error message: undefined symbol: P圜lass_Type. configure -enable-python-binding because it reverts the Makefile to use lboost-python again). Line 268 of the Makefile is BOOST_PYTHON_LIB = -lboost_python so I changed it to BOOST_PYTHON_LIB = -lboost_python3 and re-ran: $ make The suggested solution was to compile the C++ libraries with -lboost_python3 instead of -lboost_python. So it seems that it's still trying to build itself for Python2, which explains the libboost_python-py27.so in the ImportError. I Googled this, and apparently P圜lass_Type is not defined in Python3. ImportError: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libboost_python-py27.so.1.62.0: undefined symbol: P圜lass_Type

I somehow managed to download a version of the repo that did not have a configure file, or any of the makefiles. However, I read somewhere that someone else tried and failed at this, so I'm not expecting success. If that doesn't work, I'll look at writing my own Python3 wrapper for the original C++ libtorrent library.

Right now, I'm looking through the package I got from the GitHub page to see if I can somehow copy the code into my project directory, and then import it as a local module, but I'm not having much luck so far.

I am thoroughly running out of ideas and am open to any suggestions no matter how ridiculous.

However, there are more recent comments that say that, since then, it has become possible, except no instructions are given on how to achieve it. I also found this similar SO question where the accepted answer is a definitive NO. It may have something to do with my Python3 install not being in a default location, but I'm not sure how to handle that in terms of installing libtorrent. Which creates: /home//anaconda3/lib/python3.6/site-packages/python_libtorrent-1.1.5-p圓.6.egg-infoīut still no change. I can download the package from the GitHub page and install it that way by running: $ python setup.py build The PyPi page doesn't have any binaries on it, so I can't pip install it. As far as I can tell rasterbar is a dependency for libtorrent.

I don't really understand the difference between libtorrent, and libtorrent-rasterbar. $ sudo apt-get install libtorrent-rasterbar-dev I get no errors when I run: $ sudo apt-get install python3-libtorrent ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'libtorrent' Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

Afterwards your torrent client marks the torrent as finished and you’re now seeding the file to other users.I've tried everything over the last few days to install libtorrent in Python3. This process goes on till all the pieces are downloaded and put together. Afterwards, the client asks each client for a different piece of the torrent and it downloads it, as you download other peers ask your torrent client for some pieces that you’ve downloaded, and your client responds back by uploading those pieces to that peer. The download speed is also controlled by the trackers, they monitor all the users downloading the torrent and reward the users who are sharing the file with others by increasing their allowed bandwidth, which means that if you try throttling down your upload speed, you’ll only end up with less download speed.Īs you add a torrent to your torrent client ( µTorrent, BitTorrent, …), your computer starts by connecting to the torrent’s tracker servers, the tracker servers respond with a list of the users downloading the torrent or seeding (file fully downloaded but the client is still sharing it with other users) it. The “*.torrent” file that you download from the internet contains information about the torrent trackers and how the torrent client should assemble the pieces that it’s downloading together. “Tracking” are when some servers help the torrent keep track of which users are downloading the torrent. “Swarming” is splitting files into smaller pieces and sharing those pieces across a list of users.
