API === Controller ---------- * **Core** * `stem.control <api/control.html>`_ - **Controller used to talk with Tor**. * `stem.connection <api/connection.html>`_ - Connection and authentication to the Tor control socket. * `stem.socket <api/socket.html>`_ - Low level control socket used to talk with Tor. * `stem.process <api/process.html>`_ - Launcher for the Tor process. * `stem.response <api/response.html>`_ - Messages that Tor may provide the controller. * **Types** * `stem.exit_policy <api/exit_policy.html>`_ - Relay policy for the destinations it will or won't allow traffic to. * `stem.version <api/version.html>`_ - Tor versions that can be compared to determine Tor's capabilities. Descriptors ----------- To read descriptors from disk use :func:`~stem.descriptor.__init__.parse_file` for individual files and `stem.descriptor.reader <api/descriptor/reader.html>`_ for batches. You can also use `stem.descriptor.remote <api/descriptor/remote.html>`_ to download descriptors remotely like tor does. * **Classes** * `stem.descriptor <api/descriptor/descriptor.html>`_ - Base class for descriptors. * `stem.descriptor.server_descriptor <api/descriptor/server_descriptor.html>`_ - Relay and bridge server descriptors. * `stem.descriptor.extrainfo_descriptor <api/descriptor/extrainfo_descriptor.html>`_ - Relay and bridge extrainfo descriptors. * `stem.descriptor.microdescriptor <api/descriptor/microdescriptor.html>`_ - Minimalistic counterpart for server descriptors. * `stem.descriptor.networkstatus <api/descriptor/networkstatus.html>`_ - Network status documents which make up the Tor consensus. * `stem.descriptor.router_status_entry <api/descriptor/router_status_entry.html>`_ - Relay entries within a network status document. * `stem.descriptor.tordnsel <api/descriptor/tordnsel.html>`_ - `TorDNSEL <https://www.torproject.org/projects/tordnsel.html.en>`_ exit lists. * `stem.descriptor.reader <api/descriptor/reader.html>`_ - Reads and parses descriptor files from disk. * `stem.descriptor.remote <api/descriptor/remote.html>`_ - Downloads descriptors from directory mirrors and authorities. * `stem.descriptor.export <api/descriptor/export.html>`_ - Exports descriptors to other formats. Utilities --------- * `stem.util.conf <api/util/conf.html>`_ - Configuration file handling. * `stem.util.connection <api/util/connection.html>`_ - Connection and IP related utilities. * `stem.util.enum <api/util/enum.html>`_ - Enumeration class. * `stem.util.str_tools <api/util/str_tools.html>`_ - String utilities. * `stem.util.system <api/util/system.html>`_ - Tools related to the local system. * `stem.util.term <api/util/term.html>`_ - Tools for interacting with the terminal.
