7.0.1 - hotfix release

The binaries were ok, but the cargo crate had an issue were it couldn't parse torrents - fixed here c063cc5

NOTE: also for 7.0.0 and 7.0.1 the docker images and linux binaries were compiled to use ring for SHA1, instead of openssl, which turned out to be very slow. I reverted to openssl and rebuilt these without upgrading the version as nothing in rqbit changed, only the build parameters (enabled features).

Major feature

UPnP server integrated into rqbit - it can advertise all known torrents to local network, and you can browse and stream torrents from compatible devices (checked on my LG and Sony TVs).

Configurable both from UI and CLI.

rqbit 7.0.0 beta 0

Why a major upgrade? There's minor breaking changes in the CLI and librqbit API.

Biggest changes:

  • socks5 proxy support
  • m3u playlist generation support
  • postgres backend for session storage (instead of regular json file)
  • now sharing torrent metadata with peers who request it
  • HTTP API now accepts info_hashes in addition to integer indexes

rqbit v6.0.0

There's a ton of internal changes an refactorings.

librqbit API might have changed a tiny bit, mostly from newly added options.

Biggest changes:

  • streaming API + exposed HTTP endpoint + Web UI linking to file streams
  • librqbit: dynamic storage backends
  • ability to write to disk in background with buffering up to certain memory size. Isn't proven useful yet, but may be useful for disks with occasional latency spikes.
  • optimisations

v6.0.0-beta.2 Pre-release
Pre-release
  • Fixed a bug introduced by one of recent refactorings, where magnet links stopped working sometimes

NOTE: there's still something fishy going on as e2e tests are less stable in 6.0.0-beta* than stable, probably related to stealing code changes.
