The Orchid TOR library is a pure Java implementation of the TOR protocol. The library also provides a built-in TOR-enabled proxy server. The remainder of this file describes using the library - see the javadocs for details on integrating it with your Java program.
Starting Orchid is pretty easy. Using Java 1.5 or greater, simply point your browser (or other HTTP client) to localhost:9150. If you also want the dashboard to be exposed, launch Orchid using the following command:
java -Dcom.subgraph.orchid.dashboard.port=10000 -jar orchid-1.0.0.jar
Viewing the dashboard can be accomplished with any "TCP listener". From the CLI, the easiest way to watch the dashboard is to use NetCat as follows:
netcat localhost 10000
Note that on some systems, netcat is delivered with the name "nc" so the above command would be changed as follows:
nc localhost 10000
