Description

onionshare, ricochet, etc. would need something like this.

CONTROL_PORT_FILTER_WHITELIST=PROTOCOLINFO 1,add_onion *,del_onion *

So it would be nice if we had a wildcard matching feature. So stuff like:

• add_onion new:best port=80,60132
• i.e. add_onion *:* port=*,*
• or add_onion *
• del_onion ...
• list_onion ...

All would be accepted.

troubadour has implemented this.

Add wildcard support

New variable CONTROL_PORT_FILTER_ALLOW_WILDCARDS. If set, commands containing
random data (ex hidden service ID:port) are passed if an wildcard alias exists
in the commands whitelist (ex 'add_onion *')
