hidden service involvement in external program
Hi all, I want to develop a program that connects to a hidden server through tor. This is my problem: how can i establish a connection to the server from the client? I read the hidden service protocol, but i need a usable implementation of it. So i was looking in stem but seems it doesn't provide this functionality, i'm wrong? Anyone have an idea of how can i achieve a solution?? any library already implemented? Thanks!

You would have to implement most of a Tor client to do it the way you're thinking, including all the path selection and circuit building and everything. You should just connect through Tor's SOCKS5 port. -- Andrea Shepard <andrea@torproject.org> PGP fingerprint (ECC): BDF5 F867 8A52 4E4A BECF DE79 A4FF BC34 F01D D536 PGP fingerprint (RSA): 3611 95A4 0740 ED1B 7EA5 DF7E 4191 13D9 D0CF BDA5

Just connect to the HS url using the local tor driver as a proxy.
