Python wrapper for the OnionOO tor status API

OnionPy

A comprehensive pure-Python wrapper for the OnionOO Tor status API, with memcached support to cache queried data.

Installing OnionPy

You can install onion-py manually by doing the following (requires setuptools!)::

git clone https://github.com/duk3luk3/onion-py.git
cd onion-py
#run tests if desired
PYTHONPATH=. python bin/onion.py test
sudo python setup.py install

For the optional memcached support, install pymemcache and six::

sudo pip install six
sudo pip install https://github.com/pinterest/pymemcache.git

The package is also on Pypi.

Beware: OnionPy has been developed and tested exclusively with Python 3. Please let Python 2 rest in peace forevermore. OnionPy is compatible with Python 2.7 upwards.

Usage

>>> from onion_py.manager import Manager
>>> from onion_py.caching import OnionSimpleCache
>>> manager = Manager(OnionSimpleCache())
>>> s = manager.query('summary', limit=4)
>>> s.relays[0].fingerprint
'695D027F728A3B95D0D7F6464D63F82229BFA361'
>>> s.relays[0].nickname
'GREATWHITENORTH'

Accepted Queries

Summary, details, bandwidth, weights, clients, uptime

>>> s = manager.query('summary', limit=4)
>>> s = manager.query('details', limit=4)
>>> s = manager.query('bandwidth', limit=4)
>>> s = manager.query('weights', limit=4)
>>> s = manager.query('clients', limit=4)
