Version 0.15.0 of Bitcoin Core will include a new RPC command that will
allow us to obtain the amount of time (in seconds) that the server has
been running.
The github markdown interpreter has been changed such that it no longer
allows spaces in between the brackets and parenthesis of links and now
requires a newline in between anchors and other formatting. This
updates all of the markdown files accordingly.
While here, it also corrects a couple of inconsistencies in some of the
README.md files.
This updates the GetNetworkInfoResult structure to include the latest
fields added to Core for compatibility purposes.
While here, also move the definitions of the subtypes for the result
before their use for consistency.
This commit updates the fields of GetBlockChainInfoResult to reflect
the current state of the RPC as widely implemented by other full-node
implementations.
This modifies the test for createrawtransaction to specify the constant
size passed as an int64. This is necessary because the NewCmd function
accepts the parameters as interfaces in order to support varargs and a
raw numeric constant is treated as an integer. Since the constant value
is larger than an int32, this causes certain platforms like ARM which
treat a raw integer as a 32-bit integer to fail to compile.
This is work towards #600.
rpcserver:
If the locktime is given, the transaction inputs will be set to a
non-max value, activating the locktime. The locktime for the
new transaction will be set to the given value.
This mimics Bitcoin Core commit 212bcca92089f406d9313dbe6d0e1d25143d61ff
First, it removes the documentation section from all the README.md files
and instead puts a web-based godoc badge and link at the top with the
other badges. This is being done since the local godoc tool no longer
ships with Go by default, so the instructions no longer work without
first installing godoc. Due to this, pretty much everyone uses the
web-based godoc these days anyways. Anyone who has manually installed
godoc won't need instructions.
Second, it makes sure the ISC license badge is at the top with the other
badges and removes the textual reference in the overview section.
Finally, it's modifies the Installation section to Installation and
Updating and adds a '-u' to the 'go get' command since it works for both
and thus is simpler.
The following changes were made to ListTransactionsResult (which
models the long result format used by listtransactions,
listsinceblock, etc.):
- Fee made optional (float64 -> *float64 + omitempty)
- BlockIndex made optional (int64 + omitempty -> *int64 + omitempty)
- InvolvesWatchOnly added (bool + omitempty)
- Vout added (uint32)
The following changes were made to GetTransactionDetailsResult (which
models the short result format of listtransactions):
- InvolvesWatchOnly added (bool + omitempty)
- Fee added (*float64 + omitempty)
- Vout added (uint32)
The combination of pointer types and the omitempty struct tag allow
excluding the field from the JSON object, or including it with the
zero value. This is useful in particular for the fee fields, which
should be included whenever the category is "send" even if the fee is
zero. Other optional fields which are only added to the result object
with non-zero values (such as includeswatchonly) can be reduced to
simply an omitempty tag without the pointer type.
Create GenerateCmd in btcjson v2. Update tests to check GenerateCmd.
Update chaincfg/params.go with a new bool in Params, GenerateSupported,
with true values in SimNetParams and RegressionNetParams and false in
the others.
Create new flag, discreteMining, in CPUMiner struct.
Add GenerateNBlocks function to cpuminer.go and handleGenerate
function to rpcserver.go.
Update documentation for the RPC calls.
This commit removes the NewOutPointFromWire function from the btcjson
version 2 package so it can be used without needing the wire package as a
dependency. It also updates the test accordingly.
This results in the package only depending on core Go packages.
Closes#401.
