List all Torrents and details:

UTorrent.listTorrents({

  username: 'admin',
  password: '12345',
}).exec({
// An unexpected error occurred.
  error: function (err){

  success: function (torrents){
    /*
    torrents is an array of objects:
    [{
      parsed: {
        hash,
        name,
        size
        percentProgressMils,
        downloadedBytes,
        uploadedBytes,
        ratioMils,
        uploadspeedBytesSec,
        downloadspeedBytesSec,
        etaSec,
        peersConnected,
        peersSwarm,
        seedsConnected,
        seedsSwarm,
        availability,
        queueOrder,
        remainingBytes,
        torrentUrl,
        status,
        downloadDir
      },
      raw
    }, ...]
    */
  }
});

List Torrent Contents:

UTorrent.getTorrentDetails({
  host: 'localhost',
  port: 26085,
  username: 'admin',
  password: '12345',
  hash: 'torrentHash'
}).exec({
// An unexpected error occurred.
  error: function (err){

  },
  // OK.
  success: function (result){
    /*
    {
      "build": BUILD NUMBER (integer),
      "files": [
      HASH (string),
      [
      [
      FILE NAME (string),
      FILE SIZE (integer in bytes),
      DOWNLOADED (integer in bytes),
      PRIORITY* (integer)	],
      ...
      ]
      ]
    }
    */
  }
});

Remove, start and stop torrent:

UTorrent.removeTorrent({...credentials, hash: 'torrentHash'}) // remove or removedata (with param removedata=true)
UTorrent.startTorrent({...credentials, hash: 'torrentHash'}) // start or forcestart (with param force=true)
UTorrent.stopTorrent({...credentials, hash: 'torrentHash'})

Retrieve uTorrent settings:

UTorrent.getsettings({
  host: 'localhost',
  port: 26085,
  username: 'admin',
  password: '12345'
}).exec({
  // An unexpected error occurred.
  error: function (err){

  },
  // OK.
  success: function (result){
    /*
    {
      "build": BUILD NUMBER (integer),
      "settings": [
      [
      OPTION NAME (string),
      TYPE* (integer),
      VALUE (string)	],
      ...
      ]
    }
    */
  }
});

OPTION NAME is the name of the setting. They are not listed here, as some of the settings (particularly advanced ones) vary with each version and most are self-explanatory
TYPE is an integer value that indicates what type of data is enclosed within the VALUE string. The following is a list of the possible TYPEs and what VALUE type it corresponds to:
- 0 = Integer
- 1 = Boolean
- 2 = String

Set uTorrent settings:

UTorrent.setSettings({
  host: 'localhost',
  port: 26085,
  username: 'admin',
  password: '12345',
  name: settingName,
  value: settingValue
}).exec({
  // An unexpected error occurred.
  error: function (err){

  },
  // OK.
  success: function (){

  }
});
