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, a project to implement Tor in Rust.

Features

xz -- enable XZ compression. This can be expensive in RAM and CPU, but it saves a lot of bandwidth. (On by default.)

zstd -- enable ZSTD compression. (On by default.)

routerdesc -- Add support for downloading router descriptors.
