Feature: Download individual files

Open ajthemacboy opened this issue 10 years ago • 10 comments

Is it possible to download a single, individual file? I want to download a sample file without downloading the full torrent, and the sample file is only one of several files in the torrent.

Thanks.

Can't afford to put in the time just atm, so can't give an ETA just yet. Since many new features all interrelate, I plan on doing them all at once in https://github.com/jpillora/cloud-torrent/milestones/0.9. There's quite large changes to the way files are stored and written which then leads to more big changes so it's quite a task.

I know that this is scheduled for 0.9, however, can you please give this more priority over the other planned features?

I think there are many people who would want to select specific files to download instead of the entire torrent, which can be quite large at times, so I (and many others) would be happy if you could implement this. :smile:

Agreed, it would be nice. The torrent library has been improved and it would be now easier to implement. However, my day job is currently taking all my time at the moment though so I've had to put my open-source projects on pause for a while.

Doesn't resolve this issue, though for others looking downloading multiple files at once - you can now download directories as zip files in version 0.8.21
