# tox_profile

|
|
2022-09-24 02:43:49 +00:00
|
|
|
Read and manipulate tox profile files. It started as a simple script from
|
|
|
|
<https://stackoverflow.com/questions/30901873/what-format-are-tox-files-stored-in>
|
|
|

|
|
|
For the moment tox_savefile.py just reads a Tox profile and
|
2022-09-30 20:09:14 +00:00
|
|
|
prints to stdout various things that it finds. Then it writes what it
|
|
|
|
found in YAML to stderr. Later it can be extended to print out JSON
|
|
|
|
or YAML, and then extended to accept JSON or YAML to write a profile.

## Usage
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Reads a tox profile and prints out information on what's in there to stderr.
|
2022-10-02 22:29:36 +00:00
|
|
|
Call it with one argument, the filename of the profile for the decrypt, edit
|
|
|
|
or info commands, or the filename of the nodes file for the nodes command.
|
2022-10-01 23:38:28 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
3 commands are supported:
|
|
|
|
1. ```--command decrypt``` decrypts the profile and writes to the result
|
|
|
|
to stdout
|
|
|
|
2. ```--command info``` prints info about what's in the Tox profile to stderr
|
|
|
|
3. ```--command nodes``` assumes you are reading a json nodes file instead of
|
|
|
|
a profile
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```

|
|
|
|
Action for nodes command (requires jq)
|
|
|
|
--indent INDENT Indent for yaml/json/pprint
|

```
|
|
|
|
|
2022-10-02 03:36:34 +00:00
|
|
|
### --command info
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```info``` will output the profile on stdout, or to a file with ```--output```
|
|
|
|
|
2022-10-02 22:29:36 +00:00
|
|
|
Choose one of ```{info,repr,yaml,json,pprint,save}```
|
2022-10-02 03:36:34 +00:00
|
|
|
for the format for info command.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Choose one of ```{nmap_udp,nmap_tcp}```
|
|
|
|
to run tests using ```nmap``` for the ```DHT``` and ```TCP_RELAY```
|
|
|
|
sections of the profile. Reguires ```nmap``` and uses ```sudo```.
|
|
|
|
|
2022-10-02 22:29:36 +00:00
|
|
|
#### Saving a copy
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The code now can generate a saved copy of the profile as it parses the profile.
|
|
|
|
Use the command ```--command info --info save``` with ```--output```
|
|
|
|
and a filename, to process the file with info to stderr, and it will
|
|
|
|
save an copy of the file to the ```--output``` (unencrypted).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It may be shorter than the original profile by up to 512 bytes, as the
|
|
|
|
original toxic profile is padded at the end with nulls (or maybe in the
|
|
|
|
decryption).
|
|
|
|
|
2022-10-02 03:36:34 +00:00
|
|
|
### --command nodes
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Takes a DHTnodes.json file as an argument.
|
|
|
|
Choose one of ```{select_tcp,select_udp,select_version}```
|
2022-10-02 22:40:43 +00:00
|
|
|
for ```--nodes``` to select TCP nodes, UDP nodes,
|
|
|
|
or nodes with the latest version. Requires ```jq```.
|
2022-10-02 03:36:34 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2022-10-02 22:40:43 +00:00
|
|
|
Choose one of ```{nmap_tcp,nmap_udp}``` to run tests using ```nmap```
|
|
|
|
for the ```status_tcp==True``` and ```status_udp==True``` nodes.
|
|
|
|
Reguires ```nmap``` and uses ```sudo```.
|
2022-10-02 03:36:34 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### --command decrypt
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Decrypt a profile.
|
|
|
|
|
2022-10-02 22:29:36 +00:00
|
|
|
### --command edit
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The code now can generate an edited copy of the profile.
|
|
|
|
Use the command ```--command edit --edit section,key,val``` with
|
|
|
|
```--output``` and a filename, to process the file with info to stderr,
|
|
|
|
and it will save an copy of the edited file to the
|
|
|
|
```--output``` file (unencrypted). There's not much editing yet; give
|
|
|
|
```--command edit --edit help``` to get a list of what Available Sections,
|
|
|
|
and Supported Quads (section,num,key,type) that can be edited.
|
|
|
|
Currently it is:
|
|
|
|
```
|
2022-10-02 22:40:43 +00:00
|
|
|
NAME,.,Nick_name,str
|
|
|
|
STATUSMESSAGE,.,Status_message,str
|
|
|
|
STATUS,.,Online_status,int
|
2022-10-02 22:29:36 +00:00
|
|
|
```
|
2022-10-02 22:40:43 +00:00
|
|
|
The ```num``` field is to accomodate sections that have lists:
|
|
|
|
* ```.``` is a placeholder for sections that don't have lists.
|
|
|
|
* ```<int>``` is for the nth element of the list, zero-based.
|
|
|
|
* ```*``` is for all elements of the list.

## Requirements
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you want to read encrypted profiles, you need to download
|
|
|
|
toxygen to deal with encrypted tox files, from:
|
2022-10-01 18:18:56 +00:00
|
|
|
<https://git.plastiras.org/emdee/toxygen_wrapper>
|
2022-09-24 02:43:49 +00:00
|
|
|
Just put the toxygen/toxygen directory on your PYTHONPATH
|
|
|
|
You also need to link your libtoxcore.so and libtoxav.so
|
2022-10-01 18:18:56 +00:00
|
|
|
and libtoxencryptsave.so into ```wrapper/../libs/```
|
2022-09-24 02:43:49 +00:00
|
|
|
Link all 3 from libtoxcore.so files if you have only libtoxcore.so
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you want to read the GROUPS section, you need Python msgpack:
|
|
|
|
<https://pypi.org/project/msgpack/>
|
|
|
|
|
2022-09-30 20:09:14 +00:00
|
|
|
If you want to write in YAML, you need Python yaml:
|
|
|
|
<https://pypi.org/project/PyYAML/>
|
|
|
|
|
2022-09-24 02:43:49 +00:00
|
|
|
If you have coloredlogs installed it will make use of it:
|
|
|
|
<https://pypi.org/project/coloredlogs/>
|
|
|
|
|
2022-10-02 22:29:36 +00:00
|
|
|
For the ```select``` and ```nmap``` commands, the ```jq``` utility is
|
|
|
|
required. It's available in most distros, or <https://stedolan.github.io/jq/>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For the ```nmap``` commands, the ```nmap``` utility is
|
|
|
|
required. It's available in most distros, or <https://nmap.org/>
|
|
|
|
|
2022-09-24 02:43:49 +00:00
|
|
|
## Future Directions
|
|
|
|
|
2022-10-02 22:29:36 +00:00
|
|
|
This has not been tested on Windwoes, but is should be simple to fix.
|
|
|
|
|
2022-09-24 02:43:49 +00:00
|
|
|
Because it's written in Python it is easy to extend to, for example,
|
|
|
|
rekeying a profile when copying a profile to a new device:
|
|
|
|

|
|
## Specification
|
|
|
|
|
2022-10-01 23:38:28 +00:00
|
|
|
There is a copy of the Tox [spec](https://toktok.ltd/spec.html)
|
|
|
|
in the repo - it is missing any description of the groups section.
|
