|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
`tor-dirmgr`: Code to fetch, store, and update Tor directory information.
|
|
|

|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This crate is part of
|
|
|
|
|
[Arti](https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/core/arti/), a project to
|
|
|
|
|
implement [Tor](https://www.torproject.org/) in Rust.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In its current design, Tor requires a set of up-to-date
|
|
|
|
|
authenticated directory documents in order to build multi-hop
|
|
|
|
|
anonymized circuits through the network.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This directory manager crate is responsible for figuring out which
|
|
|
|
|
directory information we lack, downloading what we're missing, and
|
|
|
|
|
keeping a cache of it on disk.
