In this commit, we update the Rescan call in the interface to map the
outpoint to the address that the outpoint holds. We do this as BIP 158
has recently been updated to match on the prev output script rather than
the outpoint itself. Additionally, in the near future, btcd (then
bitcoind), will switch over to using the BIP 158 filters internally,
which will also match on the output scripts.
This commit also allows bitcoind back-end to return block timestamp
in `BlockStamp()` and prevents logging and notification of events
until after the client wallet requests notifications.
This commit allows neutrino to simulate the GetBlockHeader RPC, and
allows chain client code to use the call with both btcd/RPC back end
and the neutrino back end.
This commit adds support for using StartTime in a rescan in
neutrino. The NeutrinoClient instance can have a birthday set
such that all underlying neutrino rescans are called with that
start time.
This is a backport of decred/dcrwallet#612.
This change moves the wait for the session RPC response (used as a
pong) to a new goroutine that does not run directly in the queue
handler. By moving this out to a new goroutine, the handler can
continue enqueuing and dequeueing notifications while waiting for the
session response. Previously, if a notifiation was sent after the
session RPC was called and before the response was received, the
rpcclient main loop would block due to being unable to enqueue the
notification.
This updates all code to make use of the new chainhash package since the
old wire.ShaHash type and related functions have been removed in favor
of the abstracted package.
Also, while here, rename all variables that included sha in their name
to include hash instead.
Finally, update glide.lock to use the required version of btcd, btcutil,
and btcrpcclient.
This commit corrects various things found by the static checkers
(comments, unkeyed fields, return after some if/else).
Add generated files and legacy files to the whitelist to be ignored.
Catch .travis.yml up with btcd so goclean can be run.
This is a rather monolithic commit that moves the old RPC server to
its own package (rpc/legacyrpc), introduces a new RPC server using
gRPC (rpc/rpcserver), and provides the ability to defer wallet loading
until request at a later time by an RPC (--noinitialload).
The legacy RPC server remains the default for now while the new gRPC
server is not enabled by default. Enabling the new server requires
setting a listen address (--experimenalrpclisten). This experimental
flag is used to effectively feature gate the server until it is ready
to use as a default. Both RPC servers can be run at the same time,
but require binding to different listen addresses.
In theory, with the legacy RPC server now living in its own package it
should become much easier to unit test the handlers. This will be
useful for any future changes to the package, as compatibility with
Core's wallet is still desired.
Type safety has also been improved in the legacy RPC server. Multiple
handler types are now used for methods that do and do not require the
RPC client as a dependency. This can statically help prevent nil
pointer dereferences, and was very useful for catching bugs during
refactoring.
To synchronize the wallet loading process between the main package
(the default) and through the gRPC WalletLoader service (with the
--noinitialload option), as well as increasing the loose coupling of
packages, a new wallet.Loader type has been added. All creating and
loading of existing wallets is done through a single Loader instance,
and callbacks can be attached to the instance to run after the wallet
has been opened. This is how the legacy RPC server is associated with
a loaded wallet, even after the wallet is loaded by a gRPC method in a
completely unrelated package.
Documentation for the new RPC server has been added to the
rpc/documentation directory. The documentation includes a
specification for the new RPC API, addresses how to make changes to
the server implementation, and provides short example clients in
several different languages.
Some of the new RPC methods are not implementated exactly as described
by the specification. These are considered bugs with the
implementation, not the spec. Known bugs are commented as such.
Logging from btcrpcclient is currently not possible to set, and defaults
to nothing. Letting it inherit chain's logger can greatly simplify
debugging of connectivity issues.
Also remove a now redundant log message upon connecting to btcd.
