Adds behavior similar to the retries of persistent RPC connections
to HTTP request.
* Initial backoff: 500ms
* Linear increase
* Max retries: 10
Room for future improvement:
* Make configurable
* Add jitter
* Tests for retry behavior
* rpcclient: Export sendCmd and response
This facilitates using custom commands with rpcclient.
See https://github.com/btcsuite/btcd/issues/1083
* rpcclient: Export receiveFuture
This facilitates using custom commands with rpcclient.
See https://github.com/btcsuite/btcd/issues/1083
* rpcclient: Add customcommand example
* rpcclient: remove "Namecoin" from customcommand readme heading
* rpcclient: replace futures mainnet with params
Adds a chaincfg.Params to the Client
rpcclient: parse config to assign params
* rpcclient: change address commands to Address
* Change address future struct to contain a network field, so futures
can return the correct type for Receive
Go 1.10 made some changes such that json.Unmarshal can no longer
unmarshal into exported fields that are themselves embedded via an
uninitialized unexported pointer.
Since rpcclient previously relied on this behavior, this updates the
client to create the pointers before unmarshalling into the struct.
This commit contains the entire btcrpcclient repository along with
several changes needed to move all of the files into the rpcclient
directory in order to prepare it for merging. This does NOT update btcd
or any of the other packages to use the new location as that will be
done separately.
- All import paths in the old btcrpcclient files have been changed to
the new location
- All references to btcrpcclient as the package name have been changed to
rpcclient
