Web seeding
Is very simple the site need have one file for manipulate requests Ex.: http://michaeljackson.com/music/xx/download.php"Web seeding was implemented in 2006 as the ability of BitTorrent clients to download torrent pieces from an HTTP source in addition to the swarm. The advantage of this feature is that a site may distribute a torrent for a particular file or batch of files and make those files available for download from that same web server; this can simplify seeding and load balancing greatly once support for this feature is implemented in the various BitTorrent clients. In theory, this would make using BitTorrent almost as easy for a web publisher as simply creating a direct download while allowing some of the upload bandwidth demands to be placed upon the downloaders (which normally use only a very small portion of their upload bandwidth capacity).
and the cliente call the url for get pieces.
Code: Select all
PROTOCOL:
The client calls the URL given, in the following format:
<url>?info_hash=[hash]&piece=[piece]{&ranges=[start]-[end]{,[start]-[end]}...}
Examples:
http://www.whatever.com/seed.php?info_hash=%9C%D9i%8A%F5Uu%1A%91%86%AE%06lW%EA%21W%235%E0&piece=3
