Roadmap An example of how the core module work: a. The SMTP service receives a request. - b. The SMTP calls getLinks() with the options sent by the user. - c. getLinks() calls to __generateLinks() and then to __getMirrors() - d. getLinks() constructs a message with the information obtained. - e. getLinks() calls to __logRequest(). - f. getLinks() returns the message previously constructed. + b. The SMTP calls core.get_links() with the options sent by the user. + c. get_links() calls to _log_request(). + d. get_links() calls to _get_links(). + e. get_links() constructs a message with the information obtained. + f. get_links() returns the message previously constructed. g. The SMTP service creates a message with the links obtained and send it to the user. 5. Discussion -5.1 Cache +5.1 On demand generation + + Now we consider links generation over a period of time, say, once a week. + Generating links on demand don't seem to be necessary and it would + certainly be resource consuming.

Preface + + Since GetTor was created it has been a collection of functions and + classes separated in various modules. As its main purpose was + to serve files over SMTP, almost all current files have SMTP-related + procedures, including address normalization, message composition, etc. + The proposed design for the Twitter module intends to separate GetTor + main functionalities from the services, in this case, Twitter. + +2. Twitter module + + The main functionalities the Twitter module should provide are: + + * Receive requests via direct messages. + * Identify user instructions, such as ask for help or for a specific + bundle (OS version, language). + * Get the required links from the core module. + * Send different types of answers to the user. + * Split answers to fit Twitter's format. + * Manage black lists to avoid flood. + * Log requests for stats (anonymous). + +3. Design + + The new design should consist of the following files, directories and + functions: + + * lib/gettor/services/Twitter.py: Twitter module of GetTor. + + __init__(configuration path) + Creates an object according to the configuration values. + + processDM(message) + Process direct messages received. + + __parseDM(message) + Parse the direct message received. Check for the package requested + and the locale information. + + __getUser(message) + Gets the user from the message sent. + + __checkBlacklist(user) + Check if the given user is blacklisted by comparing the + hashed user. Yet to define how many days will be considered for + blacklisting or if another method will be used. For this it uses + the blacklist module. + + __sendReply(user) + Sends a reply to the user with the links required. It asks for + the links to the core module and then split them. + + __sendHelp(user) + Sends a message to the user with help instructions. + + __splitMessage(message) + Receives the links message and split it according to Twitter's + format. + + __CheckNewFollowers() + In order to ask for links the user has to follow the GetTor + account. The Twitter module will be constantly checking for + new followers and follow them back. + + __FollowUser(user) + Follow the given user. + + __logRequest(options) + Log information about the request for future stats (e.g. which + OS and language are the most required). If this is called + after a failure, a copy of the DM should be stored. + + * BASE_DIR/logs/: Directory for logs. BASE_DIR should be in the + configuration file. + + ----- yyyy-mm-dd.log: daily log of requests. + + +4. Roadmap + + An example of how the Twitter module should work: + + a. The Twitter account receives a DM. + b. The Twitter service check if is a valid message and if the user is + in the blacklist, and then tries to obtain the package requested and + the locale information. + c. The Twitter service asks for the links to the core module, then it + splits the message received to adopt Twitter's format. + d. One or more DMs are sent back to the user. + e. For all this, the user must follow the GetTor account. The Twitter + service will be constantly checking for new followers and following + them back. + diff --git a/spec/overview.txt b/spec/overview.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000..435d256 --- /dev/null +++ b/spec/overview.txt @@ -0,0 +1,94 @@ + Google Summer of Code 2014 GetTor Revamp - Overview + Author: Israel Leiva - <israel.leiva(a)usach.cl> + Last update: 2014-05-16 + Version: 0.01 + Changes: First version + +1. Background + + GetTor was created as a program for serving Tor and related files over + SMTP, thus avoiding direct and indirect censorship of Tor's software, + in particular, the Tor Browser Bundle (TBB). Users interact with GetTor + by sending emails to a specific email address. In the past, after the + user specified his OS and language, GetTor would send him an attachment + with the required package. This worked until the bundles were too large + to be sent as attachments in most email providers. In order to fix this + GetTor started to send links instead. + +2. Current status + + The GetTor status can be summarized in the following points: + + * Emails are sent to gettor(a)torproject.org + * The GetTor reply contains: TBB links, signatures (with text guides + for verification), mirrors, support instructions in six languages. + * Dropbox links are sent to download the TBB and signatures. + * Users can not ask for packages in their language. + * English-only replies are sent. + * Any email directed to GetTor is replied with the same information, + there is no recognition of instructions. + * Links generation is not fully automated. + * All code is written in Python. Various parts are not currently used. + * Current repositories are [0] and [1]. + +3. Proposal + + The accepted proposal [2] for Google Summer of Code (GSoC) 2014 proposes + rewriting the current GetTor using a modular design, with a core module + that handles the main GetTor functionalities, and several other modules, + one for each service (e.g. SMTP), which can interact with the core and + send replies to the users. Three modules will be developed for the + purposes of GSoC: SMTP, Twitter, Skype|XMPP. + +3.1. Goals + + The main goals of this proposal are the following: + + * Provide old GetTor functionalites, such as replies in several + languages and recognize user instructions. + * Send fewer information in each reply. + * Support more providers for uploading the TBB packages. + * Automate links generation. + * Clearer, modular and well-documented code. + * Possibilty to create new modules for other common services. + +3.2. Design + + Preliminar designs for the core module and the services can be found + in the design/ folder. All services consider creating a python script + to add the logic for using them. For example, there should be a script + that receives the emails and uses the SMTP module. For simplicity, + I've tried to specify mostly the main functions of every module; there + are some functions, like opening and writing files, that were not + considered in this preliminar phase. + +4. Discussion + +4.1. Skype + + My co-mentor for GSoC, Nima, has publicly rejected the idea of creating + a module for Skype and proposed to implement one for XMPP instead. + I've chosen Skype for its popularity, but I have no other main reason + to maintain this option, so it's probable that XMPP transport will be + implemented. + +4.2. Storing links + + My original proposal considered the fact that links could be stored + somewhere with restricted access, ideally a git repository. Nima + mentioned that ideally the links shouldn't be stored. May be this idea + could be used only to the mirrors and providers configuration (see + core module design). + +4.3. Generating unique URLs + + Nima mentioned that unique URLs could be generated for each request, + and in case the user don't have access to SSL, these links could be + served and later deleted or recycled. I like this idea. + +4. References + + [0] https://gitweb.torproject.org/gettor.git + [1] https://gitweb.torproject.org/user/sukhbir/gettor.git + [2] https://ileiva.github.io/gettor_proposal.html +
