Title: Introducing Tor.framework
Post by: hivewallet on July 30, 2013, 12:49:52 PM
Hey folks,

Here's another handy framework for Objective C developers.

Tor.framework is a Cocoa framework that allows developers to write apps for Mac OS X and iOS that work over the Tor onion routing network. Tor.framework uses the standard Tor daemon, and serves a small and tidy API for developer use.

This framework is designed to be used with our BitcoinKit:

BitcoinKit (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=256583.0) and Tor.framework are the backbone of a new Mac Bitcoin wallet app called Hive (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=304060.0;all).

The full source is available here:
https://github.com/hivewallet/Tor.framework

A sample GUI app, a Tor-only web browser, is also included for testing purposes:

I'm definitely giving this browser a try.

Oh, please don't use the test app as a browser. It's just a demo to show that the framework is functional.

Hi just an idea, perhaps    HIMainHack.h can be refactored. Why a header file? The rest seems to be pretty solid.

I agree, this definitely doesn't look right - I don't know why it was done this way, I'll need to ask the author...

Just a heads up to all:

We are depreciating support for this library for the time being - it was built for Hive but it looks like we'll be integrating Tor in a different way.
