Quick Examples

1. Searching torrents

>>> from py1337x import py1337x

# Using 1337x.tw and saving the cache in sqlite database which expires after 500 seconds
>>> torrents = py1337x(proxy='1337x.tw', cache='py1337xCache', cacheTime=500)

>>> torrents.search('harry potter')
{'items': [...], 'currentPage': 1, 'itemCount': 20, 'pageCount': 50}

# Searching harry potter in category movies and sort by seeders in descending order
>>> torrents.search('harry potter', category='movies', sortBy='seeders', order='desc') 
{'items': [...], 'currentPage': 1, 'itemCount': 40, 'pageCount': 50}

# Viewing the 5th page of the result
>>> torrents.search('harry potter', page=5) 
{'items': [...], 'currentPage': , 'itemCount': 20, 'pageCount': 50}

2. Getting Trending Torrents

>>> from py1337x import py1337x

# Using the default proxy (1337x.to) Without using cache
>>> torrents = py1337x() 

# Today's trending torrents of all category
>>> torrents.trending() 
{'items': [...], 'currentPage': 1, 'itemCount': 50, 'pageCount': 1}

# Trending torrents this week of all category
>>> torrents.trending(week=True) 
{'items': [...], 'currentPage': 1, 'itemCount': 50, 'pageCount': 1}

# Todays trending anime 
>>> torrents.trending(category='anime') 
{'items': [...], 'currentPage': 1, 'itemCount': 50, 'pageCount': 1}

# Trending anime this week
>>> torrents.trending(category='anime', week=True) 
{'items': [...], 'currentPage': 1, 'itemCount': 50, 'pageCount': 1}

3. Getting information of a torrent

>>> from py1337x import py1337x

# Using 11337x.st and passing the cookie since 11337x.st is cloudflare protected
>>> torrents = py1337x('11337x.st', cookie='<cookie>')

# Getting the information of a torrent by its link
>>> torrents.info(link='https://www.1337xx.to/torrent/258188/h9/') 
{'name': 'Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince', 'shortName': 'Harry Potter', 'description': "....", 'category': 'Movies', 'type': 'HD', 'genre': ['Adventure', 'Fantasy', 'Family'], 'language': 'English', 'size': '3.0 GB', 'thumbnail': '...', 'images': [...], 'uploader': ' ...', 'uploaderLink': '...', 'downloads': '5310', 'lastChecked': '44 seconds ago', 'uploadDate': '4 years ago', 'seeders': '36', 'leechers': '3', 'magnetLink': '...', 'infoHash': '...'}

# Getting the information of a torrent by its link

Detailed documentation

Available attributes

from py1337x import py1337x

torrents = py1337x(proxy='1337x.st', cookie='<cookie>', cache='py1337xCache', cacheTime=86400, backend='sqlite')

Proxy

If the default domain is banned in your country, you can use an alternative domain of 1337x.

• 1337x.to (default)
• 1337x.tw
• 1377x.to
• 1337xx.to
• 1337x.st
• x1337x.ws
• x1337x.eu
• x1337x.se
• 1337x.is
• 1337x.gd

cookie

Some of the proxies are protected with Cloudflare. For such proxies you need to pass a cookie value. To get a cookie go the the protected site from your browser, solve the captcha and copy the value of cf_clearance.

cache

Py1337x uses requests-cache for caching to store data so that future requests for that data can be served faster. cache can be any of the following.

• A boolean value: True for using cache and False for not using cache. (cache is not used by default)
• Directory for storing the cache.

cacheTime

By default the cache expires after one day. You can change the cache expiration time by setting a custom cacheTime.

• -1 (to never expire)

• 0 (to “expire immediately,” e.g. bypass the cache)

• A positive number (in seconds [defaults to 86400])

• A timedelta

• A datetime

backend

The backend for storing the cache can be any of the following.

• 'sqlite': SQLite database (default)

• 'redis': Redis cache (requires redis)

• 'mongodb': MongoDB database (requires pymongo)

• 'gridfs': GridFS collections on a MongoDB database (requires pymongo)

• 'dynamodb': Amazon DynamoDB database (requires boto3)

• 'memory': A non-persistent cache that just stores responses in memory
