Each blob requests has three parts
- A request to see what blobs are available
- A request to download and pay for one of those blobs
- A request to negotiate data costs
Before the refactoring all of the code to accomplish this was mixed into
one class. They are now three seperate classes.
There is still a lot of room for improvement, but it is at least better than
it was.
It configured twice, once right at startup without the lbry id and then
after the settings database is available it gets reconfigured with the
lbry id and a session id.
-adds is_lagging indicator as a key from daemon_status, which is set to
True during a phase of the startup sequence, presently only during
loading_wallet if catching up with the blockchain takes longer than a
minute.
-checks if connected to internet before trying to start
-adds version() function, which can be called after the daemon is
running and returns lbrynet, lbryum, and lbry ui version information.
-daemon_status now returns how far behind its behind the blockchain
when in the loading_wallet phase of startup
-cleans up set_vars by moving to init
-set_settings accepts a dict of settings
-adds upload_log field, defaulting on true, this uploads the lbry
log file to lbry.io to help figure out if and where things aren’t
working
-default_download_directory is the key of the path where files are
saved
-gets publish working with sources
-adds check_first_run function, returns True/False
-previously only is_running would work during startup, check_first_run,
get_time_behind_blockchain, and stop have been added
-requires six 1.9, 1.10.0 produced errors
-Use localhost:5279/view?name=wonderfullife to download and render a
file
-is_running is now the only function that will work during startup
-functions output json, rather than json in your json
-uses UI stored in Resources folder of app
-going to /view?name= will download the corresponding stream and
display the file in the browser
-adds default daemon settings, currently they don’t do anything, to be
added to
-adds missing packages to setup.py
