Cherry pick peers using Rasterbar libtorrent in Python

396 views Asked by At

Does anyone know if it's possible to cherry pick peers to connect with using libtorrent? That is, after the tracker returns a list of peer IPs and ports, only a selected few will be connected with based on some defined criteria.

Thanks

you can remove peers from the set using set_ip_filter(). you can add peers to the set by using connect_peer(). That's about all the control you have. The priority of which peers from the set to connect to in which order is hard coded.
