A command-line tool to query and control a running Tor. Based on txtorcon + Twisted.
Project description
carml is a command-line tool to query and control a running Tor (including Tor Browser Bundle). You can do things like:
list and remove streams and circuits;
monitor stream, circuit and address-map events;
watch for any Tor event and print it (or many) out;
monitor bandwidth;
run any Tor control-protocol command;
pipe through common Unix tools like grep, less, cut, etcetera;
download TBB through Tor, with pinned certs and signature checking;
…even spit out and run xplanet configs (with router/circuit markers)!
It is written in Python and uses Tor’s control-port via the txtorcon library.
Documentation at: carml.rtfd.org or tvflhlyx7o5qsl6a2v6pvzwripzzvzgt32tkhfbys7tj3zrm4faz53yd.onion/ Code at: github.com/meejah/carml
In some ways, carml started as a dumping-ground for things I happened to make Tor do at least once from Python code. Are there things you wish you could easily make Tor do from the command-line? File an enhancement bug at GitHub!
carml is also easy to extend, even with system- or virtualenv- installed packages.
Feedback is appreciated – pull-requests and bug-reports (including feature enhancements) welcome at GitHub or you can contact me in #tor-dev on OFTC or via meejah at meejah dot ca with the public-key contained in the source.
