Text of the page (random words):
nyx is a command line monitor for tor with this you can get detailed real time information about your relay such as bandwidth usage connections logs and much more nyx s latest version is 2 1 0 released january 12th 2019 what does nyx provide bandwidth graph bandwidth used by tor you can press i to pick the graphing interval or s to show other usage statistics event log tor logs a wealth of information about itself we present it colorized and deduplicated press e to select what events are logged and f to filter to just what you want connections connection data similar to netstat or lsof but correlated with tor relay information to make it much richer press enter for more details s to sort and d to see raw descriptor data configuration editor editor to change tor s setting on the fly with usage information from its manual press enter to change tor settings and w to write your changes to disk torrc provides your torrc with line numbers and syntax highlighting comments can be stripped by pressing s interpreter integration with stem s interpreter providing raw controller access irc style commands like help tab completion history scrollback and a python prompt and more that s just the tip of the iceberg all pages within nyx provide help information when you press h and menu in response to m so go explore fact question what is nyx nyx is a command line application for monitoring real time tor status information this includes bandwidth usage logs connections configuration and more as a curses interface nyx is particularly well suited for ssh connections tty terminals and command line aficionados for a bit of its history see my 2009 interview by brenno winter how do i get started getting started with nyx is easy install nyx open a tor controlport for nyx to connect with tor browser provides this out of the box otherwise add the following lines to your torrc and restart tor controlport 9051 cookieauthentication 1 run nyx on your commandline that s it why is it called nyx simple because the greek goddess of night is short and memorable terminal applications are handiest when they re brief and easy to type top ssh scp anything longer is just begging to be aliased down does nyx have any dependencies yes nyx requires stem 1 5 4 or later what python versions is nyx compatible with nyx works with python 2 7 and greater including the python 3 x series how do i validate the pgp signature most download options are maintained by their operating system s community nyx s author only provides pypi file and source releases are pgp signed and can be validated with the author s key install gpg if you don t already have it download nyx s latest release and signature get the key of nyx s author gpg keyserver keyserver ubuntu com recv keys 0x9abbeec6 gpg requesting key 9abbeec6 from hkp server keyserver ubuntu com gpg key 9abbeec6 public key damian johnson www atagar com imported gpg no ultimately trusted keys found gpg total number processed 1

owner primary key fingerprint 6827 8cc5 dd2d 1e85 c4e4 5ad9 0445 b7ab 9abb eec6 subkey fingerprint 2ae2 24f5 c424 990a e520 6c85 8884 04c1 87f3 0690 are there any other user interfaces for tor yes though sadly this space doesn t get much attention for years vidalia was the default interface of tor until it was replaced by tor browser in 2013 vidalia includes a launcher settings editor map and more tork is similar providing connection information as well but never reached the same level of prominence both interfaces are now unmaintained smaller widgets include syboa general interface onionlauncher tor launcher tornova tor launcher onioncircuits circuit information or applet circuit information if i missed any then please let me know why can t i install with apt get installing with debian and ubuntu might fail with sudo apt get install nyx reading package lists done building dependency tree reading state information done e unable to locate package nyx if so nyx is not yet available in your distribution s repositories nyx is present in debian sid and ubuntu 2 0 4 bionic but it will take time before it s available elsewhere in the meantime if you see the above we suggest installing with sudo pip install nyx instead how can i report a bug ran into a problem please simply inform us of it on our bug tracker what license is nyx under nyx is under the gplv3 usage will i see other people s traffic no potential client and exit connections are scrubbed of sensitive information be aware that it s highly discouraged and likely illegal for relay operators to view other people s traffic so please don t is it harmful to share information i see not really but show some moderation screenshots of nyx are unlikely to do any harm but try to avoid exposing data en mass can running nyx leak data no as a passive listener nyx retrieves everything it needs from your local system nothing goes over the network why can t i see the bandwidth graph some terminals such as screen sessions on gentoo apparently have a bug where highlighted space characters are not shown try running export term rxvt unicode is bandwidth graphed in bits or bytes bytes most tools measure in bytes so for consistency we do the same unfortunately hosting providers advertise in bits to inflate their numbers 5 mbit connection if graphs show just one eighth of what you expect this is why to graph in bits rather than bytes add the following to your nyxrc show_bits true why are there borders like mwqqqqqqqqj when alternate character support acs is unavailable borders become characters like the picture above this is a terminal bug unfortunately there doesn t seem to be a way for nyx to automatically detect this however when it happens this can be easily corrected simply run reset to tell nyx not to use acs borders simply add the following to your nyxrc acs_support false why can t i see tor s connections nyx can provide you with information about tor s active connections this information is retrieved from your system s proc content or tools such as netstat and lsof unfortunately tor inadvertently breaks the tools nyx falls back to through a feature called disabledebuggerattachment which makes tor s process memory only readable by root this leaves you with three options use nyx without connection data nyx does not require connection information and aside a sparse connection list you probably won t even notice run nyx as root this is not recommended turn off disabledebuggerattachment by adding the following to your torrc and restarting tor disabledebuggerattachment 0 don t fret overly much about this decision nothing at play here is important connection data is unimportant and disabledebuggerattachment s security benefit is insignificant either decision is fine why are connections missing relay details nyx presents your active connections correlated with tor consensus data this means that in addition to the ip port we also provide tor specific information such as your connection s relay fingerprint nickname contact address and much more however sometimes this extra information is missing and that s fine relays publish information about themselves on an hourly basis in documents called descriptors tor downloads only the descriptors it needs to run so tor may not have information about all the relays you re connecting to and that s ok however if you need up to date information you can add the following to your torrc download new descriptors even if our cache is still valid fetchdirinfoearly 1 fetchdirinfoextraearly 1 fetchuselessdescriptors 1 development how can i get involved the best way of getting involved with any project is to jump right in in particular look for the easy keyword on our bug tracker for a handy spot to start got questions i m atagar on oftc and available via email to get started clone our git repository git clone https git torproject org nyx git install our test dependencies sudo pip install mock pyflakes pycodestyle install the development version of stem git clone https git torproject org stem git cd stem sudo python setup py install find a bug or feature that sounds fun and dig in how do i run the tests nyx has unit tests that exercise our curses functionality when you run the tests you ll probably notice your console flicker as these tests are exercised this is normal testing also runs pyflakes and pycodestyle in the background running our tests is simple run_tests py how do i file a pull request got something to send my way it s easy make a publicly accessible repository for me to pull from if you don t already have one github is great for this file a ticket or pull request i ll review your change and give suggestions when we re both happy with it i ll push your change into the official repository what is the copyright for patches nyx is under the gplv3 which is a fine license but poses a bit of a problem for sharing code with our other projects which are mostly bsd to share code without needing to hunt down prior contributors we need tor to have the copyright for the whole nyx codebase presently the copyright of nyx is jointly held by its main author damian and the tor project if you submit a substantial patch i ll ask if you re fine with it being in the public domain this would mean that there are no legal restrictions for using your contribution and hence won t pose a problem if we reuse nyx code in other projects download nyx is available mac os linux and bsd but not windows find your platform below to get started for what s changed see our change log python package index you can install our latest release from the python package index pypi with pip sudo pip install nyx mac os on mac os you can easily install with both the pip command above and
