Hi Tutor folks

I am trying to achieve the following :

The user should log into a web app, select a file & the web app should
generate a .torrent file & a private
tracker(http://IP_ADDRESS:PORT_NUMBER/announce)
for that .torrent file.

Basically, i want to programmatically create a .torrent file, on the server
side.

I found two libraries mktorrent[1] & py3createtorrent [2], but i need help
with how to create a torrent from a django web app.

Any suggestions for django modules or libraries which can do this ?

Any suggestions/pointers/ideas/links will be greatly appreciated

Thanks a ton,

cheers,

ashish
