rtorrent-python 0.2.6

ABOUT THIS PROJECT

The xmlrpc interface to rTorrent is extremely unintuitive and has very little documentation, this project aims to make interfacing with rTorrent much easier.

NOTE: This project is considered beta, so expect the API to change. All API changes will be noted in the CHANGELOG.

REQUIREMENTS

• [Python](http://www.python.org/) 2.6 or higher, 3.0 or higher (might work on older versions, but these are the only ones I’m supporting).

• [rTorrent](http://libtorrent.rakshasa.no/) 0.8.1 or later, with xmlrpc-c support (see [this guide](http://libtorrent.rakshasa.no/wiki/RTorrentXMLRPCGuide)).

• [xmlrpc-c](http://xmlrpc-c.sourceforge.net/) 1.00 or later. 1.07 or later for 64bit integer support (highly recommended, download either the stable or advanced branches).

• [Apache](http://www.apache.org/) or [lighttpd](http://www.lighttpd.net/)
