Editing arbitrary key value pairs

We also need --publisher and --publisher-url. Otherwise --nopublisher and --nopublisher-url have no effect.

Ok, but are you able to implement these command options?

[rndusr]

Yes, when I find the time.

Of course, in your time. I just have to thank you for all your help.

Actually, it would be much better to have CLI arguments to insert/remove arbitrary values. Something like:

torf -i foo.torrent --insert :publisher:me bar.torrent
torf -i bar.torrent --remove publisher baz.torrent

The first character in :publisher:me is the delimiter between key and value.

This doesn't allow for to editing nested dictionaries and lists. There should be inspiration in man jq?

A much easier and more straightforward approach would to use JSON:

torf -i foo.torrent --insert '{"info": {"metadata": {"publisher": "me"}}}' bar.torrent
torf -i foo.torrent --remove .info.metadata.publisher bar.torrent
