#InstaTorCloud
#### Launch a Tor Bridge running on an EC2 instance in a single command.
####Make sure to check out https://cloud.torproject.org
To run with the defaults,
python instatorcloud.py --access-key-id --secret-access-key
is all that is necessary.
This will create a Normal Bridge on a t1.micro instance type in the east-1 (Virginia) region, and will create (or use) a keypair and security-group, both called _tor-cloud-server_.
---------
If you change the security group or the keypair to use, InstaTorCloud will check to see if it exists, and if it does not, it will create it for you.
python instatorcloud.py --access-key-id --secret-access-key --security-group
mytorbridges --keypair ~/.ssh/mytorbridges
You can also change what region your bridge will be in, whether it will be a private or a normal bridge, and what instance type it will be on.
python instatorcloud.py --access-key-id --secret-access-key --eu-west-1 --private
--medium
And if you want, you can add it all together and even throw in a script to run once the instance has started. (Refered to as 'user_data').
python instatorcloud.py --access-key-id --secret-access-key --security-group
mytorbridges --keypair ~/.ssh/mytorbridges --eu-west-1 --private --medium --user-data myscript.sh
In full, the above command will create a Private bridge on a m1.medium instance type in the eu-west-1 (Ireland) region, use (or create) a key pair called _mytorbridges_ in ~/.ssh, use (or create) a security group called _mytorbridges_, and run a shell script called _myscript.sh_ once the instance has been successfully launched.
