Greetings,
We just released Onionprobe 1.2.0, a tool for testing and monitoring the status of Onion Services: https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/onion-services/onionprobe
This release requires a database migration for those using the monitoring node: https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/onion-services/onionprobe/-/blob/main/docs...
# ChangeLog
## v1.2.0 - 2024-04-24
### Features
* New metrics ([tpo/onion-services/onionprobe#78][]): * From the outer descriptor wrapper: * `descriptor-lifetime`. * `revision-counter`. * From the second layer of encryption: * `single-onion-service`. * `pow-params`. * HSDir latency when fetching descriptors.
* Enhanced Grafana Dashboard ([tpo/onion-services/onionprobe#80][]) with the following new visualizations: * Overview: * Current failure rate of onionsites. * Total expiring certificates in the next 7 days. * List of certificate expirations up to the next 180 days. * List of unreachable instances. * Graph with the total unreachable instances. * List of invalid HTTPS certificates. * List of services with HTTPS errors. * Performance: * Total of minimum, average and maximum service connection latency. * Total of minimum, average and maximum descriptor fetch latency. * Chart of minimum, average and maximum service connection latency. * Chart of minimum, average and maximum descriptor fetch latency. * Rate of services using the single hop mode, relative to the total services monitored. * List of slow services. * Descriptors: * List of services missing a published descriptor. * Chart of the minimum, average and maximum descriptor sizes (decrypted outer layer). * Chart of the minimum, average and maximum descriptor sizes (decrypted second layer). * Introduction points: * Chart of minimum, average and maximum number of introduction points per service. * List of services and it's number of introduction points. * HSDir: * Total number of HSDirs tested. * Chart of minimum, average and maximum HSDir latency for fetching descriptors. * List of HSDirs sorted by descriptor fetch latency. * Proof of Work (PoW): * Ratio of services with PoW enabled, relative to the total services monitored. * Total number of services with PoW enabled. * Chart of minimum, average and maximum PoW v1 effort seem. * List of services with PoW enabled. * List of services with PoW enabled with effort greater than zero.
* Improved log message for elapsed time.
* New log messages for: * Number of introduction points. * HS_DESC events: * Descriptor reachability. * HSDir used.
* Create a GitLab release at every new tag (experimental) ([tpo/onion-services/onionprobe#82][]).
* Running lintian on CI to check the generated Debian package.

### Fixes
* Manpage generation is now compatible with the Onion Services Ecosystem Portal ([tpo/onion-services/ecosystem#1][]).
* Use the correct copyright line in source files.
* Support for a wider range of [pyca/cryptography][] versions at `setup.cfg`.
* Display Tor bootstrap messages only for the debug log level.
* Disable stem logging if log level is below debug ([tpo/onion-services/onionprobe#63][]).
* Exit codes now reflects reality ([tpo/onion-services/onionprobe#64][]).
* Calculate the elapsed time for descriptors right after fetching.
* Updated the [SecureDrop list][].
* Upgraded Grafana image to 10.4.2.
* Upgraded Alertmanager image to 0.27.0.
* Upgraded Prometheus image to 2.51.2.
* Upgraded PostgreSQL image to 16. Please run the [needed upgrading steps](upgrading.md#major-upgrades).
* Upgraded CI and container images to Debian bookworm.
* Upgraded `vendors/onion-mkdocs`.
