Setup

Setup hosts

From 2019, new conf to handle tor v3 address has been added. Here an example with docker-compose v2+:

version: "2"

services:
  tor:
    image: goldy/tor-hidden-service:0.3.5.8
    links:
      - hello
      - world
      - again
    environment:

        # hello and again will share the same onion v3 address
        SERVICE1_TOR_SERVICE_HOSTS: 88:hello:80,8000:world:80
        # Optional as tor version 2 is not supported anymore
        SERVICE1_TOR_SERVICE_VERSION: '3'
        # tor v3 address private key base 64 encoded
        SERVICE1_TOR_SERVICE_KEY: |
            PT0gZWQyNTUxOXYxLXNlY3JldDogdHlwZTAgPT0AAACArobDQYyZAWXei4QZwr++
            j96H1X/gq14NwLRZ2O5DXuL0EzYKkdhZSILY85q+kfwZH8z4ceqe7u1F+0pQi/sM

  world:
    image: tutum/hello-world
    hostname: world

  hello:
    image: tutum/hello-world
    hostname: hello

This configuration will output:

service1: xwjtp3mj427zdp4tljiiivg2l5ijfvmt5lcsfaygtpp6cw254kykvpyd.onion:88, xwjtp3mj427zdp4tljiiivg2l5ijfvmt5lcsfaygtpp6cw254kykvpyd.onion:8000

xwjtp3mj427zdp4tljiiivg2l5ijfvmt5lcsfaygtpp6cw254kykvpyd.onion:88 will hit again:80. xwjtp3mj427zdp4tljiiivg2l5ijfvmt5lcsfaygtpp6cw254kykvpyd.onion:8000 will hit wold:80.

Environment variables

{SERVICE}_TOR_SERVICE_HOSTS

The config patern for this variable is: {exposed_port}:{hostname}:{port}}

For example 80:hello:8080 will expose an onion service on port 80 to the port 8080 of hello hostname.

Unix sockets are supported too, 80:unix://path/to/socket.sock will expose an onion service on port 80 to the socket /path/to/socket.sock. See docker-compose.v2.socket.yml for an example.

You can concatenate services using comas.

WARNING: Using sockets and ports in the same service group can lead to issues

{SERVICE}_TOR_SERVICE_VERSION

Optionnal now, can only be 3. Set the tor address type.

WARNING: Version 2 is not supported anymore by tor network

2 was giving short addresses 5azvyr7dvvr4cldn.onion and 3 gives long addresses xwjtp3mj427zdp4tljiiivg2l5ijfvmt5lcsfaygtpp6cw254kykvpyd.onion

{SERVICE}_TOR_SERVICE_KEY

You can set the private key for the current service.

Tor v3 addresses uses ed25519 binary keys. It should be base64 encoded:

PT0gZWQyNTUxOXYxLXNlY3JldDogdHlwZTAgPT0AAACArobDQYyZAWXei4QZwr++j96H1X/gq14NwLRZ2O5DXuL0EzYKkdhZSILY85q+kfwZH8z4ceqe7u1F+0pQi/sM
TOR_SOCKS_PORT

Set tor sock5 proxy port for this tor instance. (Use this if you need to connect to tor network with your service)

TOR_EXTRA_OPTIONS

Add any options in the torrc file.

services:
  tor:
    environment:
        # Add any option you need
        TOR_EXTRA_OPTIONS: |
          HiddenServiceNonAnonymousMode 1
          HiddenServiceSingleHopMode 1

Secrets

Secret key can be set through docker secrets, see docker-compose.v3.yml for example.

Tools

A command line tool onions is available in container to get .onion url when container is running.

# Get services
$ docker exec -ti torhiddenproxy_tor_1 onions
hello: xwjtp3mj427zdp4tljiiivg2l5ijfvmt5lcsfaygtpp6cw254kykvpyd.onion:80
world: ootceq7skq7qpvvwf2tajeboxovalco7z3ka44vxbtfdr2tfvx5ld7ad.onion:80

# Get json
$ docker exec -ti torhiddenproxy_tor_1 onions --json
{"hello": ["xwjtp3mj427zdp4tljiiivg2l5ijfvmt5lcsfaygtpp6cw254kykvpyd.onion:80"], "world": ["ootceq7skq7qpvvwf2tajeboxovalco7z3ka44vxbtfdr2tfvx5ld7ad.onion:80"]}

Auto reload

Changing /etc/tor/torrc file triggers a SIGHUP signal to tor to reload configuration.

To disable this behavior, add ENTRYPOINT_DISABLE_RELOAD in environment.

Versions

Container version will follow tor release versions.

pyentrypoint

This container uses pyentrypoint to generate its setup.

pytor

This containner uses pytor to mannages tor cryptography, generate keys and compute onion urls.

Control port

Use these environment variables to enable control port

  • TOR_CONTROL_PORT: enable and set control port binding (ip, ip:port or unix:/path/to/socket.sock) (default port is 9051)
  • TOR_CONTROL_PASSWORD: set control port password (in clear, not hashed)
  • TOR_DATA_DIRECTORY: set data directory (default /run/tor/data)

Vanguards

For critical hidden services, it's possible to increase security with Vanguards tool.

Run in the same container

Check out docker-compose.vanguards.yml for example.

Add environment variable TOR_ENABLE_VANGUARDS to true to start vanguards daemon beside tor process. Vanguards logs will be displayed to stdout using pyentrypoint logging, if you need raw output, set ENTRYPOINT_RAW to true in environment.

In this mode, if vanguards exits, sigint is sent to tor process to terminate it. If you want to disable this behavior, set VANGUARD_KILL_TOR_ON_EXIT to false in environment.

Run in separate containers

Check outdocker-compose.vanguards-network.yml for an example of increased security setup using docker networks.

settings

Use the same environment variable as tor to configure vangards (see upper).

  • TOR_CONTROL_PORT
  • TOR_CONTROL_PASSWORD
more settings

Use VANGUARDS_EXTRA_OPTIONS environment variable to change any settings.

The following settings cannot me changer with this variable:

  • control_ip:
    • use TOR_CONTROL_PORT
  • control_port:
    • use TOR_CONTROL_PORT
  • control_socket:
    • use TOR_CONTROL_PORT
  • control_pass:
    • use TOR_CONTROL_PASSWORD
  • state_file:
    • use VANGUARDS_STATE_FILE
