## Historique du projet et usages

onion-location is a small Python utility/library for discovering Onion-Location HTTP headers, the non-standard Tor Browser mechanism that lets a clearnet HTTPS site advertise its corresponding .onion service. Its package-nerd interest is less about a large standalone ecosystem and more about turning a Tor Browser convention into a scriptable CLI/library primitive.

### Historique du projet

The package appeared on PyPI as onion-location 0.1.0 on August 2, 2024, authored by Frederik "Freso" S. Olesen and licensed AGPL-3.0-or-later. PyPI describes the project as a Python library for discovering Onion-Location HTTP headers and shows a minimal API that resolves torproject.org to its advertised onion URL.

### Historique d'adoption

Its adoption evidence is modest: PyPI hosts the Python package and Homebrew packages it as onion-location. The project sits downstream of Tor's Onion-Location deployment guidance rather than defining the browser feature itself.

### Modes d'utilisation

Developers and operators can use onion-location to check whether a URL advertises an onion counterpart without manually inspecting response headers. That makes it useful for audits of onion-service discoverability, small monitoring scripts, or package-index style metadata enrichment.

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

For package nerds, onion-location is a good example of a tiny package wrapping one operational convention: one HTTP response header, one Tor-specific validation model, and a CLI/package-manager surface that makes the convention easy to probe from automation.

### Chronologie

- 2020: Tor Browser 9.5 introduced user-facing Onion-Location support, giving HTTPS sites a browser-visible way to advertise onion services.
- 2024-08-02: onion-location 0.1.0 was released on PyPI.
- 2026: Homebrew distributes onion-location as a formula with the same advertised purpose.

### Related projects

- The project is related to Tor Browser's Onion-Location feature, Tor onion services, and broader onion-service discovery work.
