Hi

Even i tried with disk path also its also not worked, can you please tell me after converting magnet url to torrent file how can i save the torrent file directly to a folder is there any other methods.

Try './', it should download to whatever directory you run the command on.

Can you also provide which OS, Node version, and webtorrent-hybrid versions are you using?

Sorry, this isn't really a support forum. I'm going to close this. If you and others wish to continue discussion, don't let this stop you. 😄

Hi

@Mookambika Sorry, you can't download directly to the user's file system from a browser. This isn't allowed by the browser for security reasons, or any website could just save files randomly on your drive, overwriting important files.

You will need to use the file.getBlob or file.getBlobURL methods, documented here: https://webtorrent.io/docs to create a link to the file that the user can click to trigger a download. There is a code sample at the very bottom of the page.
