How Onionprobe works

Roughly speaking, Onionprobe does the following:

  • Reads a configuration where a number of Onion Services can be declared.
  • It can be kept running in a loop, continuously trying to connect to each Onion Service.
  • Metrics are collected and can be exported for each service tested, in the Prometheus format.

Details on what's tested and reported are available in the troubleshooting page.
