README

This library allows developers to encode or decode bencoded data strings in Laravel. More information about bencode can be found at Wikipedia. The format is primarily used in the .torrent file specification.

Install

Via Composer

$ composer require bhutanio/bencode

Usage

Encoding an array

<?php

use Bhutanio\Bencode\Bencode;

$data = array(
    "string" => "bar",
    "integer" => 42,
    "array" => array(
        "one",
        "two",
        "three",
    ),
);

echo Bencode::encode($data);

The above produces the string d5:arrayl3:one3:two5:threee7:integeri42e6:string3:bare.

Decoding a string

<?php

use Bhutanio\Bencode\Bencode;

$string = "d5:arrayl3:one3:two5:threee7:integeri42e6:string3:bare";

print_r(Bencode::decode($string));

The above produces the the following output:

Array
(
    [array] => Array
        (
            [0] => one
            [1] => two
            [2] => three
        )

    [integer] => 42
    [string] => bar
)
