# tor-dirclient
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`tor-dirclient`: Implements a minimal directory client for Tor.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Overview
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Tor makes its directory requests as HTTP/1.0 requests tunneled over
|
||
|
|
Tor circuits. For most objects, Tor uses a one-hop tunnel. Tor
|
||
|
|
also uses a few strange and ad-hoc HTTP headers to select
|
||
|
|
particular functionality, such as asking for diffs, compression,
|
||
|
|
or multiple documents.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This crate provides an API for downloading Tor directory resources
|
||
|
|
over a Tor circuit.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This crate is part of
|
||
|
|
[Arti](https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/core/arti/), a project to
|
||
|
|
implement [Tor](https://www.torproject.org/) in Rust.
