FAQ
Example:
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Using the PHP BitTorrent API
Autoloader
PHP BitTorrent does not come with its own autoloader, so you will need to use a PSR-0 compatible autoloader for everything to work as expected, or provide your own require[_once] statements. An example of such an autoloader can be found here. When using PHP_BitTorrent as a PHAR archive you will only need to require the archive itself, and when installed using Composer you can simply require the autoloader generated by Composer (vendor/autoload.php).
Encode PHP variables
There is also a convenience method simply called encode in the PHP\BitTorrent\Encoder class that can be used to encode all encodable variables (integers, strings and arrays).
Decode BitTorrent encoded data
There is also a convenience method called decode that can decode any BitTorrent encoded data.
Decode torrent files
The decoder class also has a method for decoding a torrent file (which is an encoded dictionary):
Create new torrent files and open existing ones
The PHP\BitTorrent\Torrent class represents a torrent file and can be used to create torrent files.
The class can also load a torrent file:
32-bit platforms
On 32-bit platforms these components work slightly different with regards to integers:
- The generic
PHP\BitTorrent\Encoder::encodemethod will encode both integers and strings containing numerics as strings (strings containing floating point values are still treated as regular strings). - The
PHP\BitTorrent\Decoder::decodeIntegermethod will return values as strings, and not integers. - The
PHP\BitTorrent\Torrent::getSizemethod will use the bcadd function to calculate the size of the files in the torrent.
