torrent.pause is not working

[jo-san]

Hi,

I know it could be a false issue. But i have tried all the ways possible. Am building a node application which will allow my users to downloading torrents from my website. Downloading working fine. But when trying to implement pause/resume its just not happening.

code snippet for reference
var torrent = client.get(torrentId);
// torrent.pause();
torrent.swarm.pause();

tried both.

My webtorrent version: 0.98.0
On Windows7 with node v6.9.1

From the docs for torrent.pause():

Temporarily stop connecting to new peers. Note that this does not pause new incoming connections, nor does it pause the streams of existing connections or their wires.

If you want to stop downloading, use torrent.remove(), then torrent.add() with the same path argument to get the download started again.
