- COIN and NET strip surrounding whitespace
- new environment variable RPC_HOST, similar to HOST, but
for RPC. Permits fine-grained control of which addresses
the RPC server listens on.
- HOST and RPC_HOST strip surrounding whitespace from hostnames
and IP addresses
- tests and documentation updated to match
Explicitely set the local IP for outgoing connections, if we're listening
on only one Hostname or IP (of a multi-IP machine). This makes sure our
peers see our outgoing connections coming from the same IP that we're
listening on when we have a specific HOST= configured.
For machines with more than one IP this avoids source-destination
mismatch errors when advertizing our peer. Resolveskyuupichan/electrumx#225
Set FORCE_PROXY to non-empty to force peer discovery to go
through the proxy. See docs/ENVIRONMENT.rst
Wait for an attempt at proxy discovery to be made before beginning
peer discovery.
Have a background proxy detection loop; removes need to check
specific peers at startup.
Consider proxy down once attempts to use it fail 3 times in a row.
Regularly attempt to rediscover a proxy if it is down.
Change last_connect to mean last connection as its name implies,
not last connection that wasn't bad.
Keep bad peers around for 3 tries.
Improve diagnostic
Rather than just retaining our clearnet identity from the environment,
maintain any tor one as well. This is a little cleaner and avoids
confusion over port assignment when converting to real names.
Fixes#136
Closes#104
DEFAULT_PORTS now a coin property
A Peer object maintains peer information
Revamp LocalRPC "peers" call to show a lot more information
Have lib/jsonrpc.py take care of handling request timeouts
Save and restore peers to a file
Loosen JSON RPC rules so we work with electrum-server and beancurd which don't follow the spec.
Handle incoming server.add_peer requests
Send server.add_peer registrations if peer doesn't have us or correct ports
Verify peers at regular intervals, forget stale peers, verify new peers or those with updated ports
If connecting via one port fails, try the other
Add socks.py for SOCKS4 and SOCKS5 proxying, so Tor servers can now be reached by TCP and SSL
Put full licence boilerplate in lib/ files
Disable IRC advertising on testnet
Serve a Tor banner file if it seems like a connection came from your tor proxy (see ENVIONMENT.rst)
Retry tor proxy hourly, and peers that are about to turn stale
Report more onion peers to a connection that seems to be combing from your tor proxy
Only report good peers to server.peers.subscribe; always report self if valid
Handle peers on the wrong network robustly
Default to 127.0.0.1 rather than localhost for Python <= 3.5.2 compatibility
Put peer name in logs of connections to it
Update docs
