Hi all :) This is my monthly status report for February 2022. Main activities during the period: 0. Created the Onionprobe tool for testing and monitoring Onion Services: https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/onion-services/onionprobe It has basic functionality, including metrics exporting to Prometheus, but still needs work to address more general use cases: https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/onion-services/onionprobe/-/blob/main/TODO... A summary about what it currently does was made during the last Demo Day: https://gitlab.torproject.org/rhatto/onionprobe/-/blob/main/docs/demoday.md Since that, Onionprobe got additional metrics and it's first refactor :) Now I'm interested to know what the community would like to have in such a tool! Some special reporting output? Some auditing like Onionscan does? Please let me know :) 1. Completed the initial version of Oniongroove specs for deployment and monitoring of Onion Service sites. Current specification is available at https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/onion-services/oniongroove/-/blob/feature/... It's is about to be reviewed and merged in the main branch: https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/onion-services/oniongroove/-/merge_request... Right now the main intention with this document is to make sure we're in the right path towards an automated high availability deployment/monitoring suite, making acceptable choices to ease the handling of all complexities involved in hosting Onion Services. So comments and suggestions would be gladly welcomed :) 2. Started research/summarization for existing proposals on Onion Service usability improvements, to be published soon.
