Another improvement is - including fallback results if the man page can't be parsed (suggested by - rransom, issue caught by NightMonkey). - * Log deduplication is currently an n^2 operation. Hence it can't handle - large logs (for instance, when at the DEBUG runlevel). Currently we're - timing out the function if it takes too long, but a more efficient method - for deduplication would be preferable. - * when in client mode and tor stops the header panel doesn't say so - * util/torTools.py: effective bandwidth rate/burst measurements don't take - SETCONF into consideration, blocked on: - https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/1692 - * log prepopulation fails to limit entries to the current tor instance if - the file isn't logged to at the NOTICE level. A fix is to use the - timestamps to see if it belongs to this tor instance.

This is also causing a bad scrolling bug where the cursor can't - get past the pair of duplicate entries. - * revise multikey sort of connections - Currently using a pretty ugly hack. Look at: - http://www.velocityreviews.com/forums/ - t356461-sorting-a-list-of-objects-by-multiple-attributes.html - and check for performance difference. - * replace checks against exit policy with Mike's torctl version - My version still isn't handling all inputs anyway (still need to handle - masks, private keyword, and prepended policy). Parse it from the rest - of the router if too heavy ("TorCtl.Router.will_exit_to instead"). - * avoid hostname lookups of private connections - Stripped most of them but suspect there might be others (have assertions - check for this in a debug mode?) - * connection uptimes shouldn't show fractions of a second - * connections aren't cleared when control port closes - -- Packaging - * OpenWrt - OpenWrt uses the opkg packaging format which could make use of - arm's current deb packages. Packaging for this platform would help with - the Torouter project: - https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/TheOnionRouter/Torouter - * Mac - Couple of options include macport and dmg... - * macport (http://guide.macports.org/#development) - Build-from-source distribution method (like BSD portinstall). This has - been suggested by several people. - - * dmg (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_Disk_Image) - Most conventional method of software distribution on mac. This is just - a container (no updating/removal support), but could contain an icon - for the dock that starts a terminal with arm. This might include a pkg - installer. - - * mpkg (http://pypi.python.org/pypi/bdist_mpkg/) - Plugin for distutils. Like most mac packaging, this can only run on a - mac. It also requires setuptools: - http://www.errorhelp.com/search/details/74034/importerror-no-module-named-s… - -- Future Features - * Option for the graph to move right to left (easy - feature request by - ioerror and rdegraaf) - * client mode use cases - * not sure what sort of information would be useful in the header (to - replace the orport, fingerprint, flags, etc) - * one idea by velope: - "whether you configured a dnsport, transport, etc. and whether they - were successfully opened. might be nice to know this after the log - messages might be gone." - [notice] Opening Socks listener on 127.0.0.1:9050 - [notice] Opening Transparent pf/netfilter listener on 127.0.0.1:9040 - [notice] Opening DNS listener on 127.0.0.1:53 - * rdns and whois lookups (to find ISP, country, and jurisdiction, etc) - To avoid disclosing connection data to third parties this needs to be - an all-or-nothing operation (ie, needs to fetch information on all - relays or none of them). Plan is something like: - * add resolving/caching capabilities to fetch information on all relays - and distil whois entries to just what we care about (hosting provider - or ISP), by default updating the cache on a daily basis - * construct tarball and make this available for download rather than - fetching everything at each client - * possibly make these archives downloadable from peer relays (this is a - no-go for clients) via torrents or some dirport like scheme - * look at Vidalia and TorK for ideas - * need to solicit for ideas on what would be most helpful to clients - * dialog with bridge statuses (idea by mikeperry) - https://trac.vidalia-project.net/ticket/570 - https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/2068 - * menus - * http://gnosis.cx/publish/programming/charming_python_6.html ? - * additional options: - * make update rates configurable via the ui - * dialog with flag descriptions and other help - * menu with all torrc options (making them editable/toggleable) - * control port interpreter (interactive prompt) - Panel and startup option (-t maybe?) for providing raw control port - access along with usability improvements (piggybacking on the arm - connection): - * irc like help (ex "/help GETINFO" could provide a summary of - getinfo commands, partly using the results from - "GETINFO info/names") - * tab completion and up/down for previous commands - * warn and get confirmation if command would disrupt arm (for - instance 'SETEVENTS') - * 'safe' option that restricts to read-only access (start with this) - * issue sighup reset - * options for more deailed control of when bandwidth's contributed - https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/1730 - * make use of the new process/* GETINFO options - They'll be available in the next tor release, as per: - https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/2291 - * feature parity for arm's config values (armrc entries) - * editability - * parse descriptions from the man page? autogeneration of the man page from - something storing the descriptions - * handle mutiple tor instances - * screen style (dialog for switching between instances) - * extra window with whatever stats can be aggregated over all instances, - or a config option to aggregate stats for bw, resource usage, etc - * option to save the current settings to the config - * provide warning at startup if the armrc doesn't exist, with instructions - for generating it - * email alerts for changes to the relay's status, similar to tor-weather - * simple alert if tor shuts down - * accounting and alerts for if the bandwidth drops to zero - * daily/weekly/etc status reports - * log output, bandwidth history, etc - * graphic of the graphed bandwidth usage - * aggregated port usage for exits and country of origin for clients - * merge in and improve the consensus tracker - * tab completion for input fields that expect a filesystem path - * look through vidalia's tickets for more ideas - https://trac.vidalia-project.net/ - * look into additions to the used apis - * curses (python 2.6 extended?): http://docs.python.org/library/curses.html - * new control options (like "desc-annotations/id/<OR identity>")? - * look into better supporting hidden services (what could be useful here?) - * provide option for a consensus page - Shows full consensus with an interface similar to the connection panel. - For this Mike's ConsensusTracker would be helpful (though boost the - startup time by several seconds) - * splash screen when starting up to indicate that arm is loading, which - would be especially helpful when arm's taking a while to parse the man - page (idea by Sjon) - * show qos stats - Take a look at 'linux-tor-prio.sh' to see if any of the stats are - available and interesting. - * escaping function for uiTools' formatted strings - * provide an option for showing cpu usage on a per-core basis - This would be similar to top when you press 1, ie cpu0 X%, cpu1 Y%, etc. - This would help relay operators in checking system load (feature request - by Jordan) - * setup wizard for new relays - Setting the password and such for torrc generation. Maybe a netinstaller - that fetches the right package for the plagform, verifies signatures, etc? - Another alternative would be that when arm is started and tor isn't - running offer to start tor as a client, relay, or bridge. (idea by ioerror) - * audit what tor does - * Provide warnings if tor connections misbehaves, for instance: - * ensuring ExitPolicyRejectPrivate is being obeyed - * check that ExitPolicy violations don't occur (not possible yet since - not all relays aren't identified) - * check that all connections are properly related to a circuit, for - instance no outbound connections without a corresponding inbound (not - possible yet due to being unable to correlate connections to circuits) - * check file descriptors being accessed by tor to see if they're outside a - known pattern - * script that dumps relay stats to stdout - Derived from an idea by StrangeCharm. Django has a small terminal coloring - module that could be nice for formatting. Could possibly include: - * desc / ns information for our relay - * ps / netstat stats like load, uptime, and connection counts, etc - * implement control-spec proposals: - * https://gitweb.torproject.org/tor.git/blob/HEAD:/doc/spec/proposals/172-cir… - * https://gitweb.torproject.org/tor.git/blob/HEAD:/doc/spec/proposals/173-get… - * urwid improvements - Urwid (http://excess.org/urwid/) is an open source python library for - terminal applications. It provides a nicer interface, ideal for terminal - forms and some common UI elements. - - As I recall it isn't compatable with using curses directly, but checking - the library for interesting capabilities and code snippets could be very - helpful. For instance, the screenshots exemplify color support beyond the - 8 colors (RGB + CMYK) available with curses... *very* curious how they do - this and how widely higher color support is available! - * gui frontend (gtk?) - Look into if the arm utilities and codebase would fit nicely for a gui - controller like Vidalia and TorK. - * unit tests - Primarily for util, for instance 'addfstr' would be a good candidate. - * python 3 compatibility - Currently blocked on TorCtl support. - -- Release Checklist - 1. Run a sanity check over major changes: - - pylint --indent-string=" " --disable=C,R interface/foo.py | less - - double check __init__.py and README for added or removed files - 2.
