How to add a class function to get completed peers in a torrent?

Question

I have created a script that generates information about a torrent file! But I'm lacking in creating a seeds and peers displaying function! Someone told me that they are in the completed field defined in the torrent. Please my class function codes from which I display the generated information using a bencode.php which takes out the data and this script ,named torrent.php converts it in readable form!

<?php
include_once('bencode.php');

class Torrent
{
    // Private class members
    private $torrent;
    private $info;

    // Public error message, $error is set if load() returns false
    public $error;

    // Load torrent file data
    // $data - raw torrent file contents
    public function load( &$data )
    {
        $this->torrent = BEncode::decode( $data );

        if ( $this->torrent->get_type() == 'error' )
        {
            $this->error = $this->torrent->get_plain();
            return false;
        }
        else if ( $this->torrent->get_type() != 'dictionary' )
        {
            $this->error = 'The file was not a valid torrent file.';
            return false;
        }

        $this->info = $this->torrent->get_value('info');
        if ( !$this->info )
        {
            $this->error = 'Could not find info dictionary.';
            return false;
        }

Answer 1

Little late but the class you say to have created comes from:

https://github.com/torrage/Torrage

It's original purpose was not intended to retrieve that kind of data.

A class that gets you seeds and peers for torrent inclusive the rest of the data see:

https://github.com/adriengibrat/torrent-rw

Answer 2

That information's not stored in the .torrent file. It's highly dynamic data, which can change every microsecond on a 'busy' torrent. The server's not going to build a custom .torrent file with up-to-the-minute statistics every time someone downloads it.

Think about it for a second. You download a .torrent file on Monday, but only look at it next Friday. The stats are now a week old and stale.

You can, however, take the tracker information in the .torrent and query those trackers for the stats.
