Tor.rb: Onion Routing for Ruby
==============================
This is a Ruby library for interacting with the [Tor][] anonymity network.
*
Features
--------
* Supports checking whether Tor is installed in the user's current `PATH`,
and if it is, returning the version number.
* Supports parsing Tor configuration files and looking up the values of
particular options.
* Supports querying and controlling a locally-running Tor process using the
[Tor Control Protocol (TC)][TC] over a socket connection.
* Supports querying the [Tor DNS Exit List (DNSEL)][TorDNSEL] to determine
whether a particular host is a Tor exit node or not.
* Compatible with Ruby 1.8.7+, Ruby 1.9.x, and JRuby 1.4/1.5.
Examples
--------
require 'rubygems'
require 'tor'
### Checking whether Tor is installed and which version it is
Tor.available? #=> true
Tor.version #=> "0.2.1.25"
### Parsing the Tor configuration file (1)
torrc = Tor::Config.load("/etc/tor/torrc")
### Parsing the Tor configuration file (2)
Tor::Config.open("/etc/tor/torrc") do |torrc|
puts "Tor SOCKS port: #{torrc['SOCKSPort']}"
puts "Tor control port: #{torrc['ControlPort']}"
puts "Tor exit policy:"
torrc.each('ExitPolicy') do |key, value|
puts " #{value}"
end
end
### Communicating with a running Tor process
Tor::Controller.connect(:port => 9051) do |tor|
puts "Tor version: #{tor.version}"
puts "Tor config file: #{tor.config_file}"
end
### Checking whether a particular host is a Tor exit node
Tor::DNSEL.include?("185.220.101.21") #=> true
Tor::DNSEL.include?("1.2.3.4") #=> false
