html - Trying to automate Tor to do something on a site and change identity each time. Need some guidance -

i need automating tor on site (in case, check on poll) , restart tor new identity. have never done remotely close this. know html, css , js well.

now, sum up, want make loop repeatedly accesses site on tor, checks on site , restarts tor new identity.

if give me guidance , tell me can use, appreciated. have time , patience learn, works really.

here examples using php , python 3 accomplish want. they're simple starting points making requests on tor , changing identity on demand.

the php example uses torutils communicate controller , wrap curl through tor.

the python example uses stem communicate controller , requests sending requests on tor's socks proxy.

the examples assume have tor working , socksport set 9050, , controlport set 9051 cookie authentication working, or controller password of password.

php

set up

• install composer install torutils package (you can download zipball , extract)
• once composer working, run composer require dapphp/torutils project directory download , install dependencies

code

<?php  use dapphp\torutils\controlclient; use dapphp\torutils\torcurlwrapper;  require_once 'vendor/autoload.php'; // composer autoloader // include torutils/src/controlclient.php , torutils/src/torcurlwrapper.php if using without composer  $controller = new controlclient; // new controller object  try {     $controller->connect('127.0.0.1', 9051); // connect tor controller on localhost:9051     $controller->authenticate('password');   // attempt authenticate using "password" password } catch (\exception $ex) {     die("failed open connection tor controller.  reason: " . $ex->getmessage() . "\n"); }     // issue 10 requests, changing identity after each request ($i = 0; $i < 10; ++$i) {     try {         $curl = new torcurlwrapper('127.0.0.1', 9050); // connect tor socks proxy on localhost:9050         $curl->httpget('https://drew-phillips.com/ip-info/'); // issue request         $body = strip_tags($curl->getresponsebody());          if (preg_match('/using tor:\s*yes/i', $body)) {             echo "you appear using tor successfully.  ";         } else {             echo "proxy worked tor ip not known.  ";         }          if (preg_match('/ip address:\s*(\d+\.\d+\.\d+\.\d+)/i', $body, $ip)) {             echo "source ip = {$ip[1]}\n";         } else {             echo "couldn't determine ip!\n";         }     } catch (\exception $ex) {         echo "http request failed!  " . $ex->getmessage() . "\n";     }      // todo: issue more requests needed here      echo "\n";     sleep(10);      try {         // send signal controller request new identity (ip)         $controller->signal(controlclient::signal_newnym);     } catch (\exception $ex) {         echo "failed issue newnym signal: " . $ex->getmessage() . "\n";     } }    

python 3

set up

this example uses python 3 , assumes have python interpreter , running , have following packages installed: requests, requests[socks], socks, urllib3, stem.

on debian/ubuntu: sudo -h pip3 install requests requests[socks] socks urllib3 stem

code

#!/usr/bin/env python3  import requests stem.control import controller, signal import time import sys import re  # specify tor's socks proxy http , https requests proxies = {     'http': 'socks5h://127.0.0.1:9050',     'https': 'socks5h://127.0.0.1:9050', }  try:     controller = controller.from_port(9051) # try connect controller @ localhost:9051 except stem.socketerror exc:     print("unable connect tor on port 9051: %s" % exc)     sys.exit(1)  try:     controller.authenticate('password') # try authenticate password "password" except stem.connection.passwordauthfailed:     print("unable authenticate, password incorrect")     sys.exit(1)  # issue 10 requests, changing identity after each request in range(1,10):     # issue request, passing proxies request     r = requests.get('https://drew-phillips.com/ip-info/', proxies=proxies)      #print(r.text)      m = re.search('<dt>using tor:</dt><dd><span[^>]*>yes', r.text)     if m:         print("you appear using tor successfully.  ", end="")     else:         print("proxy worked tor ip not known.  ", end="")      m = re.search('<dt>ip address:</dt><dd>(\d+\.\d+\.\d+\.\d+)</dd>', r.text)     if m:         print("source ip = %s" % m.groups(1))     else:         print("failed scrape ip page")      try:         # send signal controller request new identity (ip)         controller.signal(signal.newnym)     except exception ex:         print("newnym failed: %s" % ex)      time.sleep(10)
