I'm trying to load a .torrent file from my desktop in a app make with electron, but when I add the .torrent file to appp y Only have the option to save the file, and I don't know how to fix it.

Also the dragDrop function give me an error on start that say:

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'addEventListener' of null

Can anyone hel me?¿

It sounds like you're using Electron. If you don't set up drop handlers correctly, then the default browser behavior is to just save the file, which is what you're seeing.

I recommend reading the drag-drop docs more closely. It looks like you're not passing a real DOM node.

Where I can found more help to set up drop handlers? I can't find much help in docs.

Have you tried the code in the "Creating a new torrent and seed it (in the browser)" example on this page: https://webtorrent.io/intro

[rafaelleru]

yes but didn't work. Myn actual code look like:

dragDrop(document.getElementById("draganddrop"), function(file){ console.log(file); torrentID = file; addTorrent(torrentID); })

before I pass only 'draganddrop' as object, it's my div to drag files, but never show me other option more that save the file draged, and I want to add the torrent to the client via addTorrent function.

I'm sorry, I don't understand what you're asking.
