It was great meeting everyone in Reykjavík! February largely went toward GSoC prep. Thanks to everybody that sent me project ideas! https://blog.torproject.org/blog/tor-google-summer-code-2014 This left a lot less time than I'd like for coding. The only noteworthy changes this month were... * Added a new 'stem.util.test_tools' module for easily running Pyflakes and PEP8 checks... https://gitweb.torproject.org/stem.git/blob/HEAD:/stem/util/test_tools.py Stem, ExitMap, and arm all do these checks as part of their tests so this let them shed quite a bit of boilerplate. Want these checks for your own project? It's easy, so give it a try! https://gitweb.torproject.org/user/atagar/exitmap.git/blob/HEAD:/run_tests.p... * Stem tutorial example for checking the Tor exits you're using for your connections... https://stem.torproject.org/tutorials/to_russia_with_love.html#determine-the... * Couple new Controller methods for checking where Tor is listening for connections of a given type... https://stem.torproject.org/api/control.html#stem.control.Listener https://stem.torproject.org/api/control.html#stem.control.Controller.get_por... https://stem.torproject.org/api/control.html#stem.control.Controller.get_lis...

...

for listener_type in stem.control.Listener: ... ports = map(str, controller.get_ports(listener_type)) ... print "%s ports: %s" % (listener_type, ', '.join(ports)) ... OR ports: DIR ports: SOCKS ports: 9050 TRANS ports: NATD ports: DNS ports: CONTROL ports: 2779

* Gave Sphinx's aafig module a try to see if it could improve our API overviews... https://www.atagar.com/transfer/stem/overview_before.png https://www.atagar.com/transfer/stem/overview_after.png In the end I decided against it since this doesn't add much, and it causes us to render the overview as a svg (so users can't copy/paste function names). * Sent Philipp some improvements for ExitMap... https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-dev/2014-February/006162.html Cheers! -Damian
