_Note: Tor is ending its support for version 2 (v2) Onion Services, and v2 onion sites have since been deprecated. Please refer to_ `tor v3` [Tor-Onion-Service-On-Heroku](https://github.com/sumithemmadi/Tor-Onion-Service-On-Heroku).
### Prerequisites
- 1 . `ruby`
- 2 . `tor` _v2_
- 3 . `php`
- 4 . `git`
- 5 . `heroku CLI`
### Install Heroku
- 1 . Create an account on **[https://heroku.com](https://heroku.com)**.
- 2 . Install the Heroku CLI on your computer:
**[https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/heroku-cli](https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/heroku-cli)**.
Check that you have the `heroku-cli` installed by checking the version number in your terminal:
```bash
heroku --version
```
- 3 . Connect the `Heroku CLI` to your account by writing the following command in your terminal and follow the instructions on the command line:
```bash
heroku login
```
### Quick Start
- 1 . After installing `Heroku CLI` clone this reposiRubyy.
- 2 . Clone the repo with below command
```bash
git clone https://github.com/sumithemmadi/Ruby-Hidden-Service.git
cd Ruby-Hidden-Service
```
- 3 . Create a heroku application
```bash
heroku apps:create App-Name
```
- `heroku apps:create App-Name` this command creates the application as well as a git remote, that you can use to push your code to Heroku:
- _Note: replace `App-Name` with any other name._
```bash
$ heroku apps:create ruby-hidden-service
Creating ⬢ ruby-hidden-service... done
https://ruby-hidden-service.herokuapp.com/ | https://git.heroku.com/ruby-hidden-service.git
```
- 4 . Now enter the below command
```bash
heroku buildpacks:set https://github.com/heroku/heroku-buildpack-multi.git
```
- Add this buildpack to heroku.
- 5 . Copy your website `index.html` file to the folder `views` as `index.erb`
- 6 . Copy SHA from private_key which is located at `/var/lib/tor/hidden_service/`
- `hostname`
- `private_key`
If you don't know where these files stored refer to **[https://2019.www.torproject.org/docs/tor-onion-service](https://2019.www.torproject.org/docs/tor-onion-service)**
- 7 . Tor hidden services require a private_key and it's SHA to generate .onion name. You'll need to provide this as env vars.You can also edit config vars from your app’s Settings tab in the [Heroku Dashboard](https://dashboard.heroku.com):
- Open your app on heroku then click settings>config vars.
[](https://dashboard.heroku.com)
- Set config vars with `HIDDEN_SERVICE_PRIVATE_KEY`: The contents of a `private_key` file.
- 8 . Deploy your changes to heroku
```bash
git add .
git commit -am "Ruby hidden service"
git push heroku
```
- _Now your app is accessible over Tor_
- To know your .onion address
- Run the below command on terminal
```
cat /var/lib/tor/hidden_service/hostname
```
