Using as tor a library
However I want to use it as a 'library' not as a 'binary' like what the tor-android (TorService.java) and libtor-go does.

Embedding Tor into an application without external installation.
https://github.com/ipsn/go-libtor and https://github.com/cretz/bine are excellent libraries to get you started. They do exactly what you are asking.

Create Tor hidden service using only python or nodeJS
I don't know about python or node, but there is this project (https://github.com/ipsn/go-libtor) that is a fully Golang library for interacting with Tor without the tor daemon from the OS repos. Golang has python and NodeJS bindings so you could use a Golang program as a the glue code between the python/node pieces and Tor.

Apparently ProtonMail received a legal request from Europol through Swiss authorities to provide information about Youth for Climate action in Paris, they provided the IP address and information on the type of device used to the police
That is a bummer, although for now I guess it would be better than nothing to reach out to api.protonmail.ch through Tor. I'd be more motivated if it were an onion though. I had a look at the likely places it would need to be modified: https://github.com/ProtonMail/proton-bridge/search?q=dial and I think all it would take is to make a struct that extends https://github.com/cretz/bine so that it implements TLSDialer to make a drop-in Tor based connection. That would be very thorough and pretty escape-proof. I'm steadily talking myself into doing it...

Tor is a great sysadmin tool
Sure. I wrote https://github.com/cretz/bine (though I admittedly don't work on it much these days). I just have a few-line daemon that starts an HTTP (or gRPC or whatever) server on ephemeral onion service. Then I use that onion ID to access it (via TorBrowser or Orbot or a client built with the same library).

Show HN: Ots – share a secret via one-time URL (a simple Go CLI)
> Or a self-hosted option where the API could be deployed to the company's cloud of choice?
Can put it on Tor and give an ephemeral onion link (I wrote https://github.com/cretz/bine to help w/ just these use cases). So people could access via Tor browser or via the same CLI with a "client"/"get" command. Can even have the ephemeral server determine its been HTTP "GET"d and kill itself. Then you don't even need a public website.

Cwtch: Decentralized, privacy-preserving, multi-party messaging protocol
Shameless plug, I also wrote a simple lib that makes onion services easy: https://github.com/cretz/bine (OP's project uses a fork of it and I plan on putting more time into it soon)
