[Tor][to] is free software and an open network that helps you defend against
traffic analysis, a form of network surveillance that threatens personal
freedom and privacy, confidential business activities and relationships, and
state security.
This container packages **Tor** under [Alpine Linux][al], a lightweight
Linux distribution.

## Run
To run this container, simply exec.
```sh
alias docker="podman" # If you are using podman
docker run -d \
--name=tor \
-v /srv/tor/cfg:/etc/tor \
-v /srv/tor/data:/var/lib/tor \
registry.gitlab.com/connectical/container/tor
```
This start `tor` client and store config in `/srv/tor/cfg` and data in
`/srv/tor/data` persistent volumes.
Take note that, by default, `tor` store its data into `/var/lib/tor` as
a home directory, you need to add the following line in `torrc` config file
to set as data directory and set owner of `/srv/tor/data` to UID and GID 100.
```sh
mkdir -p /srv/tor/cfg /srv/tor/data
echo "DataDirectory /var/lib/tor" > /srv/tor/cfg/torrc
chown 100:100 /srv/tor/data
```
## Sample configs
### Tor SOCKS Proxy
To use as Tor proxy set `/srv/tor/cfg/torrc` as following.
```
SOCKSPort 0.0.0.0:9050
DataDirectory /var/lib/tor
```
And run it.
```sh
alias docker="podman" # If you are using podman
docker run -d \
--name=tor \
-p 127.0.0.1:9050:9050 \
-v /srv/tor/cfg:/etc/tor \
-v /srv/tor/data:/var/lib/tor \
registry.gitlab.com/connectical/container/tor
```
Next, open your browser, set `127.0.0.1:9050` as socks proxy and go to
https://check.torproject.org/ to check if you are using the Tor network.
### Tor Hidden Service
To use as service server.
```
SOCKSPort 0
DataDirectory /var/lib/tor
HiddenServiceDir /var/lib/tor/github.com/
HiddenServicePort 22 192.30.253.112:22
HiddenServicePort 80 192.30.253.112:80
HiddenServicePort 443 192.30.253.112:443
```
And run it.
```sh
alias docker="podman" # If you are using podman
docker run -d \
--name=tor \
-v /srv/tor/cfg:/etc/tor \
-v /srv/tor/data:/var/lib/tor \
registry.gitlab.com/connectical/container/tor
```

## Shell run
If you can run a shell instead `tor` command, simply do.
```sh
alias docker="podman" # If you are using podman
docker run -t -i --rm \
--name=tor \
-v /srv/tor/cfg:/etc/tor \
-v /srv/tor/data:/var/lib/tor \
--entrypoint=/bin/sh \
registry.gitlab.com/connectical/container/tor
```
Please note that the `--rm` modifier destroy the container after shell exit.
## See Tor sample config
If you need to see a documented config file of `tor`, you can open the
`torrc.sample` with following command.
```sh
alias docker="podman" # If you are using podman
docker run -t -i --rm --entrypoint=/usr/bin/less \
registry.gitlab.com/connectical/container/tor /etc/tor/torrc.sample
```
