A few months ago I tried to make a bittorrent client in javascript. But a few days after it started, I found out that there were already other projects with the same goal. The most complete of them was summerTorrent. However, though (I thought) it was so insanely close, it wasn’t finished. So anyway, I made a few changes that at least made basic torrenting functionality working.
Why didn’t you send a pullrequest back to upstream? Or did it just get declined?
A lot of it was really hacky, I don’t think it’s worthy of getting upstream.
to check for a Object type in JS use its constructor.
In your case (bencoding.js), you can use
o.constructor === Array
> true
instead of this, which involves more overhead:
Object.prototype.toString.call(o) == ‘[object Array]‘
also be aware of fallacy of the logical operators in JS, like !!; ===, !== etc… vs !,==,!=
