Downloads buffered the whole file in memory and wrote it out only on success, so an interrupted transfer left nothing behind and always started over. The START_DOWNLOAD offset was hardcoded to zero on the download side and discarded on the upload side, so neither half of the protocol's resume support was wired up. Bytes now stream into `<file>.part` as they arrive and it is renamed only once the file is whole. A new attempt sends the partial file's length as the START_DOWNLOAD offset, and `serve_file` seeks to the offset a peer asks for rather than replaying from the start. A `.part` at or past the expected size is treated as stale and restarted. Partial files are kept out of the share index, since the download directory is shared by default.
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 = "7"
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.
