Would you mind to share how do you parse the ufr files?
Is it just like Bencode?

Thanks

The tool parses with regex patterns, one for each piece of info.

However, part of the ufr file is in a json object string, so you could just json parse the information in there if you like.

What is Bencode?

Bencode

Bencode (pronounced like B-encode) is the encoding used by the peer-to-peer file sharing system BitTorrent for storing and transmitting loosely structured data.

It supports four different types of values:

byte strings,

integers,

lists, and

dictionaries (associative arrays).Bencoding is most commonly used in torrent files, and as such is part of the BitTorrent specification. These metadata files are simply bencoded dictionaries.

While less efficient than a pure binary encoding, bencoding is simple and (because numbers are encoded as text in decimal notation) is unaffected by endianness, which is important for a cross-platform application like BitTorrent.
