from tpb import TPB
from tpb import CATEGORIES, ORDERING

t = TPB('http://thepiratebay.sx/')
search = t.search('breaking bad', category=CATEGORIES.MOVIES)
search.page(2)
search.ordering(ORDERING.SEEDERS).multipage()
t.search('breaking bad').ordering(ORDERING.SEEDERS).page(3)
t.search('babylon 5').page(4).multipage() # multipage beginning on page 4
t.search('something').category(CATEGORIES.OTHERS).multipage()
t.recent().page(3)
t.top().category(CATEGORIES.MOVIES)

When i run it with any request, i get this HTTP error:

Traceback (most recent call last):

This is the code i tried:

from tpb import TPB
from tpb import CATEGORIES, ORDERS

t = TPB('https://thepiratebay.org') # create a TPB object with default domain

# search for 'public domain' in 'movies' category
search = t.search('public domain', category=CATEGORIES.VIDEO.MOVIES)

# return listings from page 2 of this search
search.page(2)

# sort this search by count of seeders, and return a multipage result
search.order(ORDERS.SEEDERS.ASC).multipage()

# search, order by seeders and return page 3 results
t.search('python').order(ORDERS.SEEDERS.ASC).page(3)

# multipage beginning on page 4
t.search('recipe book').page(4).multipage()

# search, in a category and return multipage results
t.search('something').category(CATEGORIES.OTHER.OTHER).multipage()

# get page 3 of recent torrents
t.recent().page(3)

# get top torrents in Movies category
t.top().category(CATEGORIES.VIDEO.MOVIES)

# print all torrent descriptions
for torrent in t.search('public domain'):
    print(torrent.info)

# print all torrent files and their sizes
for torrent in t.search('public domain'):
    print(torrent.files)

Please consider adding 'PORN' and its sub-categories to the code ;) Currently specifying category(CATEGORIES.PORN) throws up an AttributeError.

Cheers.

A command line interface would be a great tool to make use of TPB. What do you think? It would be also great to automatically detect witch BitTorrent client has the system installed and launch selected torrents downloads with it!

A ncurses interface would be also great but they are a bit more complex. Any thoughts?

build a Torrent object from its url. Fixes issue #65.

I added beautifulsoup as a new dependency. I'm sorry, I just can't stand lxml. It might also not be be the smartest way to do the job, but the job is done.

Hi, It's my first time using Python so my debugging skills are very rough, but upon iterating over some search results, I'm getting the following error: TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not iterable

Stack trace ends with the following:

  File "/Users/tomasz/Server/couch/venv/lib/python2.7/site-packages/tpb/tpb.py", line 144, in items
    for item in super(Paginated, self).items():
  File "/Users/tomasz/Server/couch/venv/lib/python2.7/site-packages/tpb/tpb.py", line 60, in items
    yield self._build_torrent(row)
  File "/Users/tomasz/Server/couch/venv/lib/python2.7/site-packages/tpb/tpb.py", line 102, in _build_torrent
    created = dateutil.parser.parse(match.groups()[0].replace('\xa0', ' '))
  File "/Users/tomasz/Server/couch/venv/lib/python2.7/site-packages/dateutil/parser.py", line 748, in parse
    return DEFAULTPARSER.parse(timestr, **kwargs)
  File "/Users/tomasz/Server/couch/venv/lib/python2.7/site-packages/dateutil/parser.py", line 310, in parse
    res, skipped_tokens = self._parse(timestr, **kwargs)

After digging into the code, line 102 in tpb.py seems to be the one causing issues created = dateutil.parser.parse(match.groups()[0].replace('\xa0', ' '))

When replaced with datetime.new() it works. Having said that, it might be TPB itself causing problems as I can't reliably reproduce the issue 100% of the time... sometimes it just works. Any thoughts?

Base test case that executes every test on remote and local URLs:

• executes on remote only if remote is available.
• executes always on a local bottle server that returns predownloaded original responses.

Hi,

To begin, TPB changed their domain again, just to let you know. Second, it seems the torrent.created gives a wrong date when used with multipage.

Example:

search = t.search('*', category=CATEGORIES.VIDEO.MOVIES) search.order(ORDERS.UPLOADED.DES).multipage()

for torrent in search: print(torrent, torrent.created)

OUTPUT:

After midnight, when we are supposed to go to the past day, the date is the current date, i.e if I start the script at 14:42, the torrent date will be 14:42, same day.

BUT, if I loop: search.order(ORDERS.UPLOADED.DES).page(i)

It's ok, the date is right.

Hi,

I wonder if you plan to implement a way to get the infos in the nfo beacon, on the complete page of a torrent.

ex: http://thepiratebay.sx/torrent/9236862/Ubuntu_Gnome_13.10_64-bit

On this page, the beacon is: div class="nfo"

It contains the comments of the uploader, and sometimes some links.

Thxs.

I am getting the following error when running the example script from the project site (here: https://github.com/karan/TPB#usage):

File "example.py", line 34, in print(torrent.info) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ThePirateBay-v1.3.5-py2.7.egg/tpb/tpb.py", line 347, in info info = root.cssselect('#details > .nfo > pre')[0].text_content() IndexError: list index out of range

The only change I made, was replacing the domain from "https://thepiratebay.org" to "https://thepiratebay.la"

Now using requests module instead or urllib. requests.get() handles the decompression of the data given by the website. Fixes issue #68. But introduces a dependance to te requests module.

The previous version of this didn't allow functionality on anything other than piratebay.org. I made a fix so that it can work on all functioning mirrors of ThePirateBay. This was a fix of what rows it is allowed to parse, as the previous one included the last row to be parsed which had a column count of 1 instead of the typical 4.

This update allows the API to function in the latest version of python 3.8 / 3.9.

Was getting an HTTP error beforehand using urllib and replaced it with requests.

It's here: https://github.com/pawamoy/TPB

Due to @karan not responding to issues and PRs, I've taken the liberty to fork the project and merge some PRs in it.

Still not pushed to PyPI. What distribution name should I use since ThePirateBay is taken? tpb maybe?

It seems that you have dateutils in your setup.py. That refers to this package which is almost certainly not what you wanted. I'm guessing you wanted python-dateutil and made a mistake about the package name. Since dateutils depends on python-dateutil, you probably didn't notice the mistake.

You seem to have correctly listed python-dateutil in the requirements.txt file (though pinning to a quite old version).

Hello, this is an auto-generated Pull Request. (Feedback?)

Some time ago, pypip.in shut down. This broke the badges for a bunch of repositories, including thepiratebay. Thankfully, an equivalent service is run by shields.io. This pull request changes the badges to use shields.io instead.

Unfortunately, PyPI has removed download statistics from their API, which means that even the shields.io "download count" badges are broken (they display "no longer available". See this). So those badges should really be removed entirely. Since this is an automated process (and trying to automatically remove the badges from READMEs can be tricky), this pull request just replaces the URL with the shields.io syntax.
