Ruby Torrent Library

Question

Is there any good library for Ruby to work with BitTorrent trackers? To download or seed files. There's a rubytorrent library on rubyforge, but it was last updated in 2005 and doesn't seem like working anymore.

see lib-torrent ruby... https://github.com/maran/libtorrent-ruby

I'm not sure if this is what you want.

Also see this post which contains some potentially useful comments as well, including a Ruby wrapper for the Transmission API using RPCs.

My experience with libtorrent derived clients has been very positive, I would like to see something new here. (I prefer the high density interface & advanced features of qbittorrent to the sparse UI of Transmission.)

A torrent client that exchanges DHT buckets to crawl the public DHT... ?
