Tor, network, and testnet

This guide covers advanced Tor and Bitcoin network settings.

All commands are to be copy and pasted into the terminal of your Dojo, then press ENTER.

Configure Tor bridges

By default, Dojo connects to Tor without bridges.

If your network blocks Tor access, you can enable Tor bridges.

Open Tor config:

cd ~/dojo-app/docker/my-dojo/conf/
nano docker-tor.conf

Set:

TOR_USE_BRIDGES=on
TOR_BRIDGE_TYPE=obfs4
TOR_BRIDGE_1="TypeBridgeLine1Here"
TOR_BRIDGE_2="TypeBridgeLine2Here"
TOR_BRIDGE_3="TypeBridgeLine3Here"

You can also use:

TOR_BRIDGE_TYPE=snowflake

Then apply changes:

cd ~/dojo-app/docker/my-dojo
./dojo.sh upgrade

Bridge lines can be requested from:

• https://bridges.torproject.org
• Tor Browser bridge request flow

Install Dojo on Bitcoin testnet

This must be configured before first installation.

Open common config template:

cd ~/dojo-app/docker/my-dojo/conf/
nano docker-common.conf.tpl

Set:

COMMON_BTC_NETWORK=testnet

Then install:

cd ~/dojo-app/docker/my-dojo
./dojo.sh install

Important notes:

• Do not change COMMON_BTC_NETWORK on an already running installation.
• Switching from mainnet to testnet (or testnet to mainnet) requires a fresh install.
