pytorreq

A simple library that allows you to run your requests through the tor network

Basic usage:

from pytorreq import PyTorReq

# If you want to use the library on windows, you need to explicitly specify where tor.exe is located.
# Or specify in the system PATH.
torPath = 'tor.exe'
treq = PyTorReq(torPath=torPath)

# If on Linux, then you can not enter anything.
treq = PyTorReq()

# It launch new tor session.
treq.launchTorSession()

response = treq.get('http://ipecho.net/plain')

# Is your new tor ip.
print(response.text)

Installation

pip istall pytorreq

Dependencies

You need tor. On windows you can download tor browser, and somewhere inside the tor browser folder you will need to find tor.exe.

Everything is simpler on Linux, I think that linux users do not need to be told what they need to do) like apt\dnf bla bla bla...

Note

By default, tor session is generated during class initialization. To get a session object, you can directly refer to it.

treq = PyTorReq(torPath=torPath)
tses = treq.session
<requests.sessions.Session object at 0x000001FAF5D77B80>

The library has one method of resetting personality. After applying this method you will receive a new identity tor and a new ip address.

treq.getNewTorIdentity()

There is a wrapper around all the required request methods. Just use them as you would with the good old requests module:

# GET
treq.get()
# POST
treq.post()
# PUT
treq.put()
# PATCH
treq.patch()
# DELETE
treq.delete()

There are also methods for working with cookies. You can safely transfer regular cookies from requests there.

# CookieJar obj
treq.getCookieObj()
# CookiesDict
treq.getCookieDict()
# If you need, you can very simply add a new cookie to the current tor session. Accepts a cookie obj
treq.updateTorSessionCookie(cookie)

You can get your tor ip via the following method:

# it will return string with your ip adr
treq.getMyIp() 

Close method.

# It will close the session.
treq.close()
