Microsoft Background Intelligent Transfer Service (BITS) implementation written in Go

GoBITS

This repository holds my golang implementation of the BITS Upload Protocol.

It has been tested on Windows 10 and Debian 8, so it should work on all platforms.

How to get

go install gitlab.com/magan/gobits

Examples

You can find an example implementation here

In short, it implements the ServeHTTP handler, so you can use it on an existing webserver written in go by simply adding the following lines of code:

import gitlab.com/magan/gobits

cb := func(event gobits.Event, session, path string) {
	switch event {
	case gobits.EventCreateSession:
		fmt.Printf("new session created: %v\n", session)
	case gobits.EventRecieveFile:
		fmt.Printf("new file created: %v\n", path)
	case gobits.EventCloseSession:
		fmt.Printf("session closed: %v\n", session)
	case gobits.EventCancelSession:
		fmt.Printf("session canceled: %v\n", session)
	}
}
bits := gobits.NewHandler(gobits.Config{}, cb)
http.Handle("/BITS/", bits)

After that, test an upload from a windows machine with the following PowerShell command:

Start-BitsTransfer -TransferType Upload -Source <path to file to upload> -Destination http://<hostname>:<port>/BITS/<filename>
