yet another… but mine is fast as hell.

install

-------

.. code-block:: bash

	pip install bcoding

use

---

.. code-block:: python

	from bcoding import bencode, bdecode

decoding:

~~~~~~~~~

.. code-block:: python

	# decoding from binary files or streams:

	with open('some.torrent', 'rb') as f:

		torrent = bdecode(f)

		print(torrent['announce'])

	# decoding from (byte)strings:

	one = bdecode(b'i1e')

	two = bdecode('3:two')

encoding (note that any iterable or mapping can be bencoded):

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

.. code-block:: python

	# encoding into binary files or streams:

	bencode({'a': 0}, sys.stdout.buffer) # ⇒ d1:ai0ee

	# encoding to bytestrings:

	assert bencode(('a', 0)) == b'l1:ai0ee'
