[Bencode](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bencode) is the encoding used by the peer-to-peer file sharing system [BitTorrent](https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT) for storing and transmitting loosely structured data.

This is a pure PHP library that allows you to encode and decode Bencode data, with torrent file parse and vaildate.

This library is forked from [OPSnet/bencode-torrent](https://github.com/OPSnet/bencode-torrent), with almost same methods like [arokettu/bencode](https://github.com/arokettu/bencode), [arokettu/torrent-file](https://github.com/arokettu/torrent-file)

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

if you don't use `Rhilip\Bencode\TorrentFile` class, you can specific version to `1.x.x`and if your PHP version is `5.6` or `7.0-7.2`, please stop at version `1.2.0` and `2.0.0`

```
