Persisting torrent download state

[lucaswxp]

Hey guys, nice job!

I have a question, if I start downloading a file like this:

var WebTorrent = require('webtorrent')

var client = new WebTorrent()
var magnetUri = '...'

client.download(magnetUri, function (torrent) {
})

And the download reaches 50%, but for some reason my server crashes, if I restart the server, and add the same torrent again with the same destination path, will it continue downloading from where it stopped?

Also, there's any event in client that notifies when a torrent was completed?

Alright,

I have done some testing and apparently the torrent starts from where it left off.

Also, the event I was looking for is called 'done' in the torrent object itself.

Code example:

client.download(magnetUri, {path: process.cwd() + '/data'}, function (torrent) {
      // Got torrent metadata!
      console.log('Torrent info hash:', torrent.infoHash)
      console.log('Save location: ' + torrent.path);

      // this is called every time we receive a chunk
      torrent.on('download', function(chunkSize){
        console.log('chunk size: ' + chunkSize);
        console.log('total downloaded: ' + torrent.downloaded);
        console.log('download speed: ' + torrent.downloadSpeed());
        console.log('progress: ' + torrent.progress);
        console.log('======');
      })

      torrent.on('done', function(){
        console.log('torrent downloaded!');
        torrent.files.forEach(function(file){
           // do something with file
        })
      })
    })
