This involved a rewrite of the JSON RPC layer.
I took the opportunity to clean up the handling of requests
in general. It should now be easy to return nice help from
the docstrings.
Closes issue #99
Apart from the flush on shutdown and the flush when caught up,
neither of which matter, this makes flushes asynchronous.
Also, block processing for reorgs is now asynchronous.
This also removes the FORCE_REORG debug envvar; I want to
put that into the RPC interface.
Closes#102
tx_hash needs to be that of the prior serialization, so
need to change internal read_block API.
Bitcoin core 0.13.1 broke backwards compat of the RPC interface.
Closes#92
Pause serving sessions whose socket buffer is full (anti-DoS)
Serve requests in batches of 8
Don't store the session in the request
RPC has priority 0; every other session at least 1
Periodically consolidate small session groups into 1
Add new RPC command requests.
Adjust sessions RPC command to show pending requests.
Only keep first 15 chars in version string.
Set socket timeout
Try more forceful closing of socket
Fixes#67
Batch requests are now processed and encoded incrementally.
Their bandwidth usage is also incrementally added, and so overlarge
responses are rejected as soon as they become too large.
JSON text is also more memory efficient than the python data
structures they represent.
Show it in the logs with each session-specific message.
Show the sessions ID in the sessions list with an L suffix if logging.
Add RPC commands to toggle logging of, and disconnect, a session.
Closes#55
This accomodates large tx sends of up to 500k bytes.
However they are unlikely to be propogated by your daemon as the
default relay limit it imposes is 100K.
- incoming buffered network requests limited to 150,000 bytes
which I believe is ample for a genuine client
- if exceeded, the connection is dropped
- raise outgoing data limit for RPC connections to 5 MB - expect
sessions calls can be long and connection is implicitly trusted
- similarly raise incoming buffered data limit to 5 MB for RPC
connections
