Port of webtorrent/magnet-uri by feross that uses fewer dependencies in typescript
Demo: https://magnet-link.vercel.app
``console`
npm install @ctrl/magnet-link
#### Encode
`ts
import { magnetDecode } from '@ctrl/magnet-link';
const uri =
'magnet:?xt=urn:btih:d2474e86c95b19b8bcfdb92bc12c9d44667cfa36&dn=Leaves+of+Grass+by+Walt+Whitman.epub&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.example4.com%3A80&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.example5.com%3A80&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.example3.com%3A6969&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.example2.com%3A80&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.example1.com%3A1337';
const parsed = magnetDecode(uri);
console.log(parsed.dn); // "Leaves of Grass by Walt Whitman.epub"
console.log(parsed.infoHash); // "d2474e86c95b19b8bcfdb92bc12c9d44667cfa36"
`

"udp://tracker.example3.com:6969",
"udp://tracker.example4.com:80",
"udp://tracker.example5.com:80"
]
}
#### Decode
`ts
import { magnetEncode } from '@ctrl/magnet-link';
// convert object to magnet uri
const uri = magnetEncode({
xt: [
'urn:ed2k:354B15E68FB8F36D7CD88FF94116CDC1',
'urn:tree:tiger:7N5OAMRNGMSSEUE3ORHOKWN4WWIQ5X4EBOOTLJY',
'urn:btih:QHQXPYWMACKDWKP47RRVIV7VOURXFE5Q',
],
xl: '10826029',
dn: 'mediawiki-1.15.1.tar.gz',
tr: [
'udp://tracker.openbittorrent.com:80/announce',
],
as: 'http://download.wikimedia.org/mediawiki/1.15/mediawiki-1.15.1.tar.gz',
xs: [
'http://cache.example.org/XRX2PEFXOOEJFRVUCX6HMZMKS5TWG4K5',
'dchub://example.org',
],
});
You can also use convenience key names like name (dn), infoHash (xt), infoHashIntArray (xt), announce (tr), and keywords (kt).
