The tor package contains utility functions that allow for interacting with the
|
|
Tor daemon. So far, supported functions include:
|
|
|
|
* Routing all traffic over Tor's exposed SOCKS5 proxy.
|
|
* Routing DNS queries over Tor (A, AAAA, SRV).
|
|
* Limited Tor Control functionality (synchronous messages only). So far, this
|
|
includes:
|
|
* Support for SAFECOOKIE, HASHEDPASSWORD, and NULL authentication methods.
|
|
* Creating v2 and v3 onion services.
|
|
|
|
In the future, the Tor Control functionality will be extended to support v3
|
|
onion services, asynchronous messages, etc.
