theonionbox on debian 10 /buster #75

Description

@PollekeG

Hi, some comments and tips for installing theonionbox on debian 10 / buster:

  • first of all, it works on buster.
  • I ran into some 'issues' (nor really issue, more documentation tips I guess)
  • on buster pip is not (by default) installed. Maybe add to the documentation to install this by using: sudo apt-get install python3-pip
  • if you use this package than
    sudo pip install virtualenv
    becomes
    sudo pip3 install virtualenv
    (can be that this has more to do with my knowledge op pip than anything else)
  • the virtualenv looks a bit different than on a Pi, but no problem there
  • for some reason, within the virtualenv you can use 'pip' (and not pip3)
  • theonionbox installs just fine within virualenv
  • I couldn't get the configuration file to be accepted 'automatically' and had to add the whole path with the -c option to the 'theonionbox' startup command. Also, I had to specify the full path name (so not a relative path name for the virtualenv)
  • using the -d option did not list the problem with not automatically opening the config file
  • of course port 8080 was already in use for something else, that's why i needed the config file
  • so I have theonionbox up and running on 1 tor server of my family, will work on getting the other monitored via a hidden service (I will take your issue Need help setting it up first time #41 as a guideline.. because currently all family is setup using ansible rol relayor with a controlsocket, so there is still some work to do
  • I guess with the cc you have implemented issues feature request: add support for ControlSocket #13 and feature request: add support for multiple tor instances #12
  • running theonionbox I get 1 warn message: ' Onionoo protoc version mismatch! Receiverd: 8.0 / Prepared for: ['6.2', '7.0' ]. If I look at the stats in the webserver I do think everything is working (fine), so this doesn't seem to be a problem.

thanks for this nice implementation!
(if you need logfiles or something please let me know)
