Enum TorAuthentication

pub enum TorAuthentication {
    Null,
    SafeCookie(Option<Vec<u8>>),
    HashedPassword(String),
}

Methods for Tor authentication:

• Null - No authentication
• SafeCookie - SAFECOOKIE authentication
• HashedPassword - pass the hashed password to authenticate

With SafeCookie auth, you can either pass in the cookie value as a binary vector, or, if you pass in “None”, it will call the PROTOCOLINFO command to get the location of the cookie file, and attempt to read that and pass the value to authenticate.

Note that we don’t support plain COOKIE authentication, since that’s been determmined to be unsafe.

Variants

Null

SafeCookie(Option<Vec<u8>>)

HashedPassword(String)
