qBit4Delphi

qBit4Delphi is an open-source project created by Laurent Meyer to embed qBittorent WEbUI API in applications developed with Delphi VCL/FMX, see qNOXify. This is a full implementation.

This package contains also :

• TTorrentReader: a torrent file parser (UTF8 BEncode, Format: V1, V2 and Hybrid).
• TvnStatClient : a vnStat client to get bandwith usage statistics from a remote linux server (metered connection)
• TIP_API : an interface to ip-api.com to get any IP data
• uCountryFlags: country flags .png images from app. resources (ISO 639)

Official WebUI API Documentation: https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent/wiki/WebUI-API-(qBittorrent-4.1)

It requires no DLL, nor third-party extension. This is pure Pascal VCL/FMX. BUT before you try to compile qBit4Delphi, some Embarcadero JSON .pas units need to be patched (bugs / features). The procedure to do so is provided below. This API is developed with Delphi Community Edition 10.4 but also tested with Sydney 10.4.2, Alexandria 11.0 and 11.1 (JSON patches provided)

Alternatively, qNOXify is a thin client for qBittorent/NOX, it is a work in progress and has now its own repository : qNOXify
