A minimal client for connecting to the tor network
This crate is the primary command-line interface for Arti, a project to implement Tor in Rust. Many other crates in Arti depend on it.
Note that Arti is a work in progress; although we've tried to write all the critical security components, you probably shouldn't use Arti in production until it's a bit more mature.
More documentation will follow as this program improves. For now, just know that it can run as a simple SOCKS proxy over the Tor network. It will listen on port 9150 by default, but you can override this in the configuration.
(This is not stable; future versions will break this.)
arti uses the clap crate for command-line
argument parsing; run arti help to get it to print its documentation.
The only currently implemented subcommand is arti proxy; try
arti help proxy for a list of options you can pass to it.
By default, arti looks for its configuration files in a
platform-dependent location. That's ~/.config/arti/arti.toml on
Unix. (TODO document OSX and Windows.)
The configuration file is TOML. (We do not guarantee its stability.)
For an example see arti_defaults.toml.
tokio (default): Use the tokio runtime library as our backend.
async-std: Use the async-std runtime library as our backend.
This feature has no effect unless building with --no-default-features
to disable tokio.
static: Try to link a single static binary.
There are many missing features. Among them: there's no onion service support yet. There's no anti-censorship support. You can't be a relay. There isn't any kind of proxy besides SOCKS.
See the README file for a more complete list of missing features.
