HTTPRPC Plugin

Description

This plugin is designed as a easy to use replacement for the mod_scgi (or similar) webserver module, with emphasis on extremely low bandwidth use. If you install this plugin, you do not need to use mod_scgi or the RPC Plugin.

Note: This plugin requires a faster server, and is not recommended for embedded systems, like a router or slow computer.

It simplifies system setup and adds a layer of security. (There is no /RPC2 mount point exposed with this plugins. (This does not mean you can remove the $XMLRPCMountPoint entry from your ruTorrent/conf/config.php file.))

On the otherhand, because this plugin implements the scgi function in php, it does add additional load (in comparison to mod_scgi)

This plugin was sponsored by Alexander from the ruTorrent forums, and is the direct result of a bounty.

Use of this plugin reduces bandwidth 10 fold.

This plugin requires php 5.2.x or higher and the json php module
