Simple Bandwidth Scanner - SBWS(1)
===================================
SYNOPSIS
--------
sbws [**Optional arguments**] [**Positional arguments**]
sbws [**-h**] [**--version**]
[**--log-level** {**debug,info,warning,error,critical**}]
[**-c** CONFIG] {**cleanup,scanner,generate,init,stats**}
DESCRIPTION
-----------
Tor bandwidth scanner that generates bandwidth measurements files to be read by
the Directory Authorities.
The **scanner** requires a configuration file (see **sbws.ini** (5)) with a
with a '[destinations]' section.
**sbws** can be run a python script or a system service.
The later is recommended.
The default locations of the files that **sbws** reads or generate depend on
on how it is run.
See the section **FILES** to know which are the default locations.
OPTIONS
-------
Positional arguments
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
{**cleanup,scanner,generate,init,stats**}
These arguments can have additional optional arguments.
To obtain information about them, run: 'sbws <positional argument> --help'.
Optional arguments
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-h, --help
Show help message and exit.
--version
Show **sbws** version and exit.
--log-level {debug,info,warning,error,critical}
Override the sbws log level (default: info).
-c CONFIG, --config CONFIG
Path to a custom configuration file.
EXAMPLES
--------
sbws scanner
Run the scanner using **sbws** defaults.
sbws -c ~/.sbwsrc scanner
Run the scanner using the configuration file in `~/.sbwsrc`
sbws --log-level debug generate
Generate v3bw file in the default v3bw directory.
sbws cleanup
Cleanup datadir and v3bw files older than XX in the default v3bw directory.
FILES
-----
In the following list, the first path is the default location when running
**sbws** as an script, the second path is the default location when running
**sbws** as a system service.
**$HOME/.sbws.ini** or **/etc/sbws/sbws.ini**
Location where **sbws** searches for a custom configuration file, when the
option **--config** is not provided.
**$HOME/.sbws** or **/var/lib/sbws**
Location where **sbws** writes/reads measurement data files,
bandwidth list files and **tor** process data.
Under this directory, **sbws** creates the following subdirectories:
datadir
Raw results generated by the ``sbws scanner``.
Other commands (such as ``generate`` and ``stats``) read results from
this directory.
log
Log files generated by ``sbws``, when logging to a file is configured
(see **sbws.ini**).
v3bw
Bandwidth files generated by ``sbws generate``. These are the files
read by the Tor directory authorities.
tor
Data generated by the **tor** process launched by **sbws**.
**$HOME/.sbws/tor** or **/run/sbws/tor**
Location where the **tor** process launched by ``sbws scanner`` stores
temporal files, like Unix domain sockets.
