# Nu Plugin From Bencode
A converter plugin from the [bencode][bep_0003] format for [Nushell][nushell].
The plugin was last tested on nushell version `0.90.1`.
The plugin is unstable as the interface `Nu` for plugins is unstable.
The plugin could be useful for inspecting a [BitTorrent][bittorrent] metainfo
file (*.torrent), but it is primarily used to explore writing a `Nu` plugin.
## Installation
```sh
cargo install nu_plugin_from_bencode
```
[Register][nushell_register] the plugin:
```sh
register /nu_plugin_from_bencode
```
By default, cargo installs to `$HOME/.cargo/bin` on Unix systems.
## Usage
The `from bencode` command is provided with no parameter arguments.
To use:
```sh
> open ubuntu-20.04.4-live-server-amd64.iso.torrent | from bencode
