[PATCH] services: tor: Deprecate 'tor-hidden-service' procedure. |
Date: |
Mon, 6 Mar 2023 17:24:54 +0000 |
Due to (now renamed) 'hidden-service' record type not being exported,
the only way hidden services could have worked is through the now deprecated
'tor-hidden-service' procedure which also had the issue that it can only
be used once since the returned service always had the same name.
This commit fixes the Tor service documentation and
deprecates 'tor-hidden-service' procedure, correcting some inconsistencies
along the way.
* doc/guix.texi (Networking Services): Add examples for Tor hidden services.
Document <tor-hidden-service-configuration>. Remove mention of
'tor-hidden-service' procedure.
* gnu/services/networking.scm: Export tor-configuration-tor,
tor-configuration-config-file,
tor-configuration-hidden-services, tor-configuration-socks-socket-type,
tor-configuration-control-socket-path, tor-hidden-service-configuration,
tor-hidden-service-configuration?, tor-hidden-service-configuration-name,
tor-hidden-service-configuration-mapping.
(<tor-configuration>)[control-socket?]: Rename accessor.
(<hidden-service>): Rename to ...
(<tor-hidden-service-configuration>): ... this.
(tor-configuration->torrc): Update record-type name.
(tor-activation): Ditto.
(tor-service-type): Tweak comment.
(tor-hidden-service-type): Remove variable.
(tor-hidden-service): Deprecate procedure.
---
Split from #61789.
To be decided: whether hidden-services should be renamed to onion-services.
