Two TUIs on one daemon behaved as two separate windows that happened to share a login: each showed only the transfers it had queued and the searches it had run, and neither said it was attached to anything. The status bar now names the daemon, and both lists are views of the session: transfers and searches appear in every window, dismissing one dismisses it everywhere, and a window opened later starts from what is already running rather than blank. message read likewise starts from the conversation the daemon collected instead of only what arrives while it runs. Search state needed the daemon to say when a query went out. The window a search collects for belongs to whichever client started it, so without that every other window showed a running search as finished the moment it appeared — which is what it did. The summary carries a file count too, so a window has the right number before it has pulled the results across. Adds Client::forget_search, which the library had no way to do: a resident client otherwise holds every result set it has ever seen, and a window that dismissed a search had no way to say so. A review of the first cut found five defects, all fixed here and all covered: syncing ran locally too, where it cost a full copy of every result set per frame and deleted the completed-download history restored from disk; a transfer could be listed twice by racing its own registration; clearing all searches did not reach the session, so every row came back; a search dismissed elsewhere never left; and a wishlist search reported as finished the instant it went out.
soulseek-rs-lib
A Rust library for implementing the Soulseek peer-to-peer protocol.
Website: https://re-invention.nl/soulseek-rs/
About
This library provides the core functionality for interacting with the Soulseek network. It can be used to build custom Soulseek clients or bots.
Usage
Add this to your Cargo.toml:
[dependencies]
soulseek-rs-lib = "8"
Example
Simple Usage
use soulseek_rs::Client;
use std::time::Duration;
fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
// Create and connect to Soulseek server
let mut client = Client::new("username", "password");
client.connect()?;
client.login()?;
// Search for files
let results = client.search("Alex Kassian lifestream", Duration::from_secs(10))?;
// Download first available file
if let Some(result) = results.iter().find(|r| !r.files.is_empty()) {
let file = &result.files[0];
let (_download, status) = client.download(
file.name.clone(),
file.username.clone(),
file.size,
"~/Downloads".to_string(),
)?;
// `download` returns as soon as the request is queued: the transfer is
// finished when the channel says so, not when this call returns.
for update in status {
println!("{}: {update:?}", file.name);
}
}
Ok(())
}
Advanced Configuration
use soulseek_rs::{Client, ClientSettings, PeerAddress};
fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
// Create client with custom settings
let settings = ClientSettings {
server_address: PeerAddress::new("server.slsknet.org".to_string(), 2416),
enable_listen: true,
listen_port: 3000,
..ClientSettings::new("username", "password")
};
let mut client = Client::with_settings(settings);
client.connect()?;
client.login()?;
Ok(())
}
Asking about a peer
The server-backed lookups are request/poll pairs: you ask, then read the
answer once it lands. request_user_info clears any previous answer first, so
the loop below observes this request rather than the last one.
use soulseek_rs::Client;
use std::thread::sleep;
use std::time::{Duration, Instant};
fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
let mut client = Client::new("username", "password");
client.connect()?;
client.login()?;
client.request_user_info("someuser")?;
let deadline = Instant::now() + Duration::from_secs(10);
while Instant::now() < deadline {
if let Some(info) = client.user_info("someuser") {
// Presence and stats are separate replies, so each is an Option:
// a reply that never arrived is None, not "offline" or "shares nothing".
println!("{:?} {:?}", info.presence, info.stats);
break;
}
sleep(Duration::from_millis(100));
}
// Room membership is kept current from join and leave events.
println!("{:?}", client.room_members("lobby"));
Ok(())
}
ServerMessage and ClientOperation are #[non_exhaustive]: every protocol
message the client learns to handle adds a variant, so match them with a
wildcard arm.
