Connect lit via tor #253

Open Varunram opened 6 years ago

Varunram commented 6 years ago

Connect lit via tor. Lots of things done in this PR, built on top of brontide.

When starting lit, do ./lit --tor.active --tor.v2 --tn3 <host> -v

To connect to some host, run con adr@list.onion tor true from lit-af and then you should be connected to a remote onion address. Connecting to a clearnet address via tor is possible as well, normal syntax should work. Connecting via tor to remote Hosts for sync and connecting to a peer via tor is not possible (no bad opsec, sorry).

NOTE: This PR will fail tests because the tests would have to be rewritten as well, will rewrite. This also moves all config stuff to config/ because we need to access user provided config from lit-af and uspv as well.

Will fix tests towards the end after all incorporating all suggestions, doesn't make sense to write tests for constantly changing code.

Since this is built on brontide, will merge after the BOLT PR is merged.

Since Brontide is now merged (right?) , could we finish this?

Varunram commented 6 years ago

Will update, thanks!

Can I suggest using --tor-active and --tor-v2 instead of the . notation? it looks a little cleaner.
