Command-line downloader (via magnet link) for the holy Torrentz.
- Given keywords, and search for Torrentz resources
- Retrieve Magnet links, and open for download
- Multiple downlaods
- Python 2.x
- BitTorrent client with Magnet support
- We use
webbrowser.open('magnet:...')
- We use
- Install to somewhere like
/usr/local/bin - Run
torrentz-magdl <keyword>
It'd be fun to integrate download() with other projects like:
- torrent-mount -- mount magnet link as a filesystem via FUSE
- peerflix -- stream torrent content to VLC
Thanks to @clkao for the brilliant ideas!
