query / rtorrent_xmlrpc.py
Created April 2, 2011 17:25
Python module for interacting with rtorrent's XML-RPC interface directly over SCGI.
#!/usr/bin/python
# rtorrent_xmlrpc
# (c) 2011 Roger Que <alerante@bellsouth.net>
#
# Python module for interacting with rtorrent's XML-RPC interface
# directly over SCGI, instead of through an HTTP server intermediary.
# Inspired by Glenn Washburn's xmlrpc2scgi.py [1], but subclasses the
# built-in xmlrpclib classes so that it is compatible with features
# such as MultiCall objects.
