# makeDefault() Returns a configuration rooted at a fresh UUID-suffixed temp directory. ``` static func makeDefault() -> TorConfiguration ``` ## Return Value A `TorConfiguration` with a unique `dataDirectory`, ephemeral SOCKS port, and no cache directory. ## Discussion Convenience factory for tests and throwaway sessions: generates a new `FileManager.default.temporaryDirectory/tor-` path and leaves [`ownsDataDirectory`](/documentation/Tor/TorConfiguration/ownsDataDirectory) at its default `false`. Prefer [`ephemeral(cacheDirectory:)`](/documentation/Tor/TorConfiguration/ephemeral(cacheDirectory:)) if you want the directory cleaned up on [`stop()`](/documentation/Tor/TorClient/stop()). > Note: Two calls in quick succession produce distinct > configurations — UUIDs guarantee no directory collision even > when parallel tests race to construct clients.
