tor
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.
