BREAKING CHANGE:
Related to #1985. Prior to Embark's minimum supported version of Node.js being
bumped to to 10.17.0, Embark was incompatible with any relatively recent
release of the `ipfs-http-client` package.
While *internal* changes are needed re: ipfs's `Buffer` export for
e.g. `embark_demo` to function correctly *(and this PR makes those changes)*,
Embark otherwise runs/tests okay.
Keep in mind #2033.
However, if a dApp author were to explicitly `require('ifps-api')` in the
front-end that wouldn't work as before; and swapping `"ipfs-http-client"` for
`"ipfs-api"` might also not be enough — there are API changes that dApp authors
would need to consider, regardless of Embark presently supplying the dependency
and EmbarkJS wrapping around it.
Closes#1994.
This commit fixes the issue that it wasn't possible anymore to use named constructor arguments
in Smart Contract configurations.
For example, the following Smart Contract expects two constructor arguments:
```solidity
contract SomeContract {
constructor(address[] _addresses, int initialValue) public {}
}
```
The first being a list of addresses, the second one a number. This can be configured as:
```js
SomeContract: {
args: [
["$MyToken2", "$SimpleStorage"],
123
]
}
```
Notice how the order of arguments matters here. `_addresses` come first in the constructor,
so they have to be defined first in the configuration as well.
Another way to configure this is using named arguments, which is what's broken prior to this commit:
```js
SomeContract: {
args: {
initialValue: 123,
_addresses: ["$MyToken2", "$SimpleStorage"]
}
}
```
Using a notation like this ^ the order no longer matters as Embark will figure out the right
values for the constructor arguments by their names.
The reason this is broken is because there are several modules in Embark that register and
run a `deployment:contract:beforeDeploy` action, which are allowed to mutate this configuration
object. One of those modules is the `ens` module, which searches for ENS names in the arguments
and figure out whether it has to replace it with a resolved address.
One thing that particular module didn't take into account is that `args` could be either and
array, or an object and will always return an array, changing the shape of `args` in case it was
an object.
This is a problem because another module, `ethereum-blockchain-client`, another action is registered
that takes this mutated object in `determineArguments()` and ensure that, if `args` is actually an
object, the values are put in the correct position matching the constructor of the Smart Contract in
question.
One way to solve this was to use the newly introduced [priority](https://github.com/embark-framework/embark/pull/2031) and ensure
that `ens` action is executed after `ethereum-blockchain-client`'s.
However, the actual bug here is that the ENS module changes the shape of `args` in the first place,
so this commit ensures that it preserves it.
Those had been removed in a refactor while the Smart Contract sources have been
kept around, resulting in deployment errors as Embark doesn't know what to do
with the Smart Contracts that don't come with a dedicated config.
This commit re-adds the configurations to make the deployment pass again.
* refactor(@embark/dapps/tests/app): use function syntax
These changes don't fix the race conditions related to the test dapp's tests
but are a step in the right direction.
* refactor(@embark/dapps/tests/contracts): adjustments to get tests passing
Further refactoring is needed re: potentially duplicated or overlapping logic
in `packages/plugins/solidity-tests` and
`packages/core/utils/src/solidity/remapImports.ts`, as well in disabled test
dapp tests
* test(dapps/tests/app): temporarily disable intermittently failing tests
They are failing because of a race condition; once that race condition has been
fixed these tests should be reenabled.
* fix(@embark/solidity-tests): fix importing the library for the tests
Fix a lot of bugs and reenable a couple of modules
Some tests were kept disabled, mostly the ENS and EmbarkJS tests
Those need to add back a fairly significant feature to work
Add back missing solidity contracts
* fix: fix tests hanging because the console is not started
* fix(@embark/proxy): send back errors correctly to the client
Code originally by @emizzle and fixed by me
* feat(@embark/test-runner): add assert.reverts to test reverts
* fix: make test app actually run its test and not hang
* fix(@embark/proxy): fix listening to contract event in the proxy
* feat(@embark/test-runner): add assertion for events being triggered
* docs(@embark/site): add docs for the new assert functions
* feat(@embark/test-runner): add increaseTime util function to globals

Upgrade all dependencies on web3/web3-* v1.0.0-beta.37 to v1.2.1.
Make various adjustments related to the previous convention of
`"web3": "1.0.0-beta"` in `embark.json` signifying that embark's own web3
dependency should be used in dapp builds.
Fix bugs in library manager, including a switch from using the
live-plugin-manager package to using npm in a child process to install
`"versions"` dependencies specified in `embark.json` when a specified version
doesn't match up with embark's own version for that package.
Avoid race conditions when installing `"versions"` by completing all installs
prior to starting other services. If an install fails, then after all the
installs have completed or failed the embark command will exit with error.
Change various comments and update docs to reflect the new default of web3
v1.2.1.
Effectively deprecate the `embarkjs-connector-web3` package but don't introduce
a breaking change by simply not loading the plugin if it's specified in a
DApp's `embark.json`. If the deprecated plugin is specified, display a message
indicating the plugin was ignored and suggesting it be removed from the
project's `embark.json` and `package.json`.
This commit has been originally cherry-picked from d0d89fc5ae and
slightly modified to update all packages, as meanwhile, new packages have been added to `master`.
The reason this commit is cherry-picked from `4.0.x` branch is because
it wasn't created from `master`.
Purpose is mainly to update `CHANGELOG` and get the package versions in sync again.
Make changes by running these commands in the root of the monorepo:
**bugs**
```shell
npx lerna exec --concurrency 1 --stream -- \
'DIRPATH=$(realpath $PWD --relative-to=$LERNA_ROOT_PATH); \
npx json -I -f package.json -e "this.bugs=\
\"https://github.com/embark-framework/embark/issues\""'
```
**homepage**
```shell
npx lerna exec --concurrency 1 --stream -- \
'DIRPATH=$(realpath $PWD --relative-to=$LERNA_ROOT_PATH); \
npx json -I -f package.json -e "this.homepage=\
\"https://github.com/embark-framework/embark/tree/master/${DIRPATH}#readme\""'
```
Don't commit changes to private packages, with the exceptions of embark-typings
and embark-reset because those may switch from private to public, and also
because the latter will be included in `node_modules` of embark even if it is
private since embark-reset is presently a bundled dependency of embark.
Don't include the homepage and bugs fields in dapps generated from the template
packages, except for the demo. Set those dapps' description field to an empty
string.
Ensure every package (inc. private packages) has a description.
Ensure every package (inc. private packages) has a README that begins with:
```markdown
`[pkgJson.name]`
================
> [pkgJson.description]
Visit [embark.status.im](https://embark.status.im/) to get started with
[Embark](https://github.com/embark-framework/embark).

Don't include the README in dapps generated from the template packages, except
for the demo.
