Greetings, I wrote a simple IStreamClientEndpointStringParser for using the SOCKS5ClientEndpoint with Tor: https://gist.github.com/david415/26a4ed59078d2e27376f
I modified a txsocksx code example for testing the new endpoint descriptor: https://gist.github.com/david415/7c6040117319cc3b0230 ...but I am not sure how to "register" it such that calls to clientFromString can return this endpoint when the descriptor prefix matches. This doc: https://twistedmatrix.com/documents/13.2.0/api/twisted.internet.interfaces.IStreamClientEndpointStringParser.html mentions placing the plugin in the twisted.plugins package... however this doc: http://twistedsphinx.funsize.net/projects/core/howto/plugin.html suggests that I can also set the PYTHONPATH to a directory: """if a directory which has been added to sys.path (typically by adding it to the PYTHONPATH environment variable) contains a directory named twisted/plugins/ , each .py file in that directory will be loaded as a source of plugins.""" I'm using twisted 13.2.0 in a virtualenv... and I've tried setting PYTHONPATH to a "twisted/plugins" directory no avail. I must be doing something wrong here but after scouring the docs and twisted source code... I'm just not sure. This effort is part of solving for Tahoe-LAFS trac ticket 517: "make tahoe Tor- and I2P-friendly" https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/ticket/517 Thanks to Glyph and JP's help I was able to write a foolscap client side patch to use twisted endpoints. See foolscap trac ticket 203: http://foolscap.lothar.com/trac/ticket/203#comment:36 str4d has already written the foolscap server side endpoint patch... Therefore it seems to me the next steps are to create parsers for endpoints we are interested in supporting... and get Tahoe-LAFS to register them so that serverFromString and clientFromString will return the expected endpoint objects.
