Allows skipping the Tor startup script if WHOOGLE_TOR_SERVICE is set to
0. This is separate from WHOOGLE_CONFIG_TOR, which only allows
enabling/disabling user configuration of passing searches through
Tor.
Closes#631
4. Set the Tor environment variable to 1, `WHOOGLE_CONFIG_TOR`. Refer to the [Environment Variables](#environment-variables) section for more details.
- This may be added in the systemd unit file or env file `WHOOGLE_CONFIG_TOR=1`
* Password
1. Run this command:
- `tor --hash-password {Your Password Here}`; put your password in place of `{Your Password Here}`.
- Keep the output of this command, you will be placing it in your torrc.
- Keep the password input of this command, you will be using it later.
2. Uncomment or add the following lines in your torrc:
- `ControlPort 9051`
- `ControlPort 9051`
- `HashedControlPassword {Place output here}`; put the output of the previous command in place of `{Place output here}`.
3. Now take the password from the first step and place it in the control.conf file within the whoogle working directory, ie. [misc/tor/control.conf](misc/tor/control.conf)
- If you want to place your password file in a different location set this location with the `WHOOGLE_TOR_CONF` environment variable. Refer to the [Environment Variables](#environment-variables) section for more details.
4. Heavily restrict access to control.conf to only be readable by the user running whoogle:
- `chmod 400 control.conf`
5. Finally set the Tor environment variable and use password variable to 1, `WHOOGLE_CONFIG_TOR` and `WHOOGLE_TOR_USE_PASS`. Refer to the [Environment Variables](#environment-variables) section for more details.
- These may be added to the systemd unit file or env file:
- `WHOOGLE_CONFIG_TOR=1`
