## Historique du projet et usages

Nyx is the Tor Project's command-line monitor for Tor relays. It gives relay operators a curses interface for bandwidth, connections, logs, Tor configuration, torrc inspection, and controller access through Stem.

### Historique du projet

Nyx is the renamed and redesigned successor to arm, the older command-line Tor monitor by Damian Johnson. The Tor Project blog post published on 2017-11-08 introduced Nyx as an overhaul of arm, highlighting Python 3 support, startup bandwidth graph improvements, IPv6 connection support, and connection viewing without toggling DisableDebuggerAttachment.

### Historique d'adoption

Nyx's adoption is tied to Tor relay operation rather than general shell use. The project page says version 2.1.0 was released on 2019-01-12, and package metadata shows it distributed through Homebrew plus Linux distributions including Alpine, Debian, Fedora, Arch, Ubuntu, and Nix. Homebrew reported 401 installs over the 365-day analytics window queried on 2026-07-01.

### Modes d'utilisation

Users install Nyx on the machine running Tor, enable a Tor ControlPort such as 9051 with cookie authentication, and run nyx in a terminal or SSH session. It is especially useful for relay operators who want top-like live status without a graphical desktop.

### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

Nyx is significant because it is specialized operational tooling for a privacy network. Packaging it correctly matters: it depends on Python and Stem, needs terminal/curses behavior to work over SSH, and is part of the practical toolbox for people running Tor infrastructure.

### Chronologie

- 2009: Nyx's FAQ links to an interview about the earlier tool history.
- 2017-11-08: Tor Project blog introduced Nyx as the redesigned successor to arm.
- 2019-01-12: Nyx 2.1.0 released, according to the project homepage.
- 2026-07-01: Homebrew formula API reported stable version 2.1.0.
