Stable and performant Tor library in .NET Core.

Windows	Linux & OSX

1. git clone https://github.com/nopara73/DotNetTor
2. cd DotNetTor/
3. dotnet restore
4. cd src/DotNetTor.Tests/
5. Configure Tor properly.
6. dotnet test

1. Download Tor Expert Bundle: https://www.torproject.org/download/download
2. Download the torrc config file sample: https://github.com/nopara73/DotNetTor/blob/master/torrc
3. Place torrc in the proper default location (depending on your OS) and edit it:

• Optionally uncomment and edit the SocksPort, if you don't uncomment it will default to 9050 port anyway
• The default ControlPort in the sample is 9051, optionally edit it.
• Modify the password hash
  • To run my tests, for the ControlPortPassword = "ILoveBitcoin21" the hash should be: HashedControlPassword 16:0978DBAF70EEB5C46063F3F6FD8CBC7A86DF70D2206916C1E2AE29EAF6
  • For your application you should use different one, a more complicated one. Then start tor like this: tor --hash-password password where password is the password you've chosen. It will give you the HashedControlPassword.

4. Start tor, it will listen to the ports you set in the config file.

var requestUri = "http://icanhazip.com/";

// 1. Get real IP
using (var httpClient = new HttpClient())
{
	var message = httpClient.GetAsync(requestUri).Result;
	var content = message.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result;
	Console.WriteLine($"Your real IP: \t\t{content}");
}

// 2. Get Tor IP
using (var httpClient = new HttpClient(new SocksPortHandler("127.0.0.1", socksPort: 9050)))
{
	var message = httpClient.GetAsync(requestUri).Result;
	var content = message.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result;
	Console.WriteLine($"Your Tor IP: \t\t{content}");

	// 3. Change Tor IP
	var controlPortClient = new ControlPort.Client("127.0.0.1", controlPort: 9051, password: "ILoveBitcoin21");
	controlPortClient.ChangeCircuitAsync().Wait();

	// 4. Get changed Tor IP
	message = httpClient.GetAsync(requestUri).Result;
	content = message.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result;
	Console.WriteLine($"Your other Tor IP: \t{content}");
}

Originally the SocksPort part of this project was a leaned down, modified and .NET Core ported version of the SocketToMe project.
Originally the ControlPort part of this project was a leaned down, modified and .NET Core ported version of the Tor.NET project.
At this point of the development you can still find parts of the former project in the codebase, however the latter has been completely replaced.
