As part of 8ed5376533 we made `ENS.getEnsConfig()`
asynchronous, hence it needs a callback. This change was not done in one of the
ENS tests, resulting in the test to fail. The test mocked that particular API,
turning it into noop, which is why the test kept timing out.
This commit fixes the test by not mocking the API and adding the needed configuration
to the environment.
Prior to this commit, registering ENS subdomains would fail due to `defaultAccount`
being null. This is because the underlying API was still relying on `blockchain:defaultAccount:get`.
However since the bigger refactor, every plugin/module is in charge of creating its own
blockchain connector instance and ensuring it has a default account.
This commit makes use of ENS' module's `webDefaultAccount` async getter to
ensure a valid default account is set when registering an ENS subdomain.
Add back DevTxs.
DevTxs sends a zero-value tx to push through any pending txs that may get stuck with geth while in `—dev` mode.
When the geth client is running, devtxs is started automatically, sending a transaction every 10 seconds.
Converted the legacy code in to typescript.
Tests were exiting early and Mocha was reporting an exit code of 0. This allowed CI to complete as if the tests were successful.
Change `compiler:contracts` event request to `compiler:contracts:compile` and update documentation. Because the `compiler:contracts` event didn’t exist, this test was silently failing.
Update the `TestEvents` mock object to allow passing of parameters to an event that is not a callback.
Add unit tests to test for contracts loaded via node_modules.
1. This PR contains a change where any contracts loaded from node_modules will be imported in to `.embark/contracts/node_modules`. Previously, these contracts were loaded in to `.embark/node_modules` (with the `/contracts`).
Re-enable debugger for cockpit and console.
Add missing request `blockchain:getTransaction` required to start a debugging session.
Fix error in console when stopping a debug session.
Add option in communication config to choose which Whisper client to use.
Because Parity’s implementation of Whisper is not compatible with Whisper v6, and therefore web3.js in its current form, the following changes have been made:
1. remove any functionality associated with launching a Parity Whisper process.
2. Warn the user when the Parity Whisper client has been opted for in the communication config.
3. Return an error for API calls when Parity Whisper client has been opted for in the communication config.
4. Update Cockpit’s Communication module to show errors returned from API calls.
5. Update the messaging configuration documentation for the new communication client option.
Users can turn of blockchain support if they want to using the blockchain.js
configuration. In practice however, this has never properly worked as several
places in Embark's codebase weren't actually honoring that configuration value.
This commit introduces the necessary changes so that disabling blockchain support will:
No longer generate blockchain related EmbarkJS artifacts
No longer try to deploy Smart Contracts but still compile them
This commit removes the need for `EmbarkJS.onReady()` and `EmbarkJS.Blockchain.blockchainConnector` APIs
in the ENS provider implementation and instead relies purely on vanilla `Web3`. This comes
with the effect that `EmbarkJS.Names` needs to figure out itself what to connect
to, as well as when a connection has been established.
To make that possible, `EmbarkJS.Names` now implements a similar algorithm to
`EmbarkJS.Blockchain` that tries to connect different endpoint, given a `dappConnection`
configuration.
If no `dappConnection` configuration is given via `namesystem.json`, Embark will fallback
to the same connection list that's provided in `contracts.js|json`.
wip
It is unnecessary and not a good idea for `packages/embark` to provide
dependencies to other monorepo packages via any kind of transitive dependency
relationship. In this case, `embark` depended on `embark-core` and
`embark-core` needs `embark-whisper-*` packages but it's `embark` that supplies
those packages indirectly. It works out in the monorepo, *probably* in
production too, but we need to move away from that pattern completely.
`Engine.startEngine(cb)` potentially exits the current process if
any registered plugins emits an error in the bootstrap phase.
This limits consumers of this API to react accordingly. Embark's APIs
should be considered library APIs that propagate errors, but let callers
decide what to do with them.
This commit ensures we keep propagating the error of `startEngine()` without
exiting the current process.
Client traffic with the communication provider node, e.g. a whisper node, is
not proxied so make the default port 8547 instead of 8557. It's not a technical
problem for it to be 8557, but our convention to present has been for 855*
ports to be proxied while the upstream is an 854* port.
Update the boilerplate and demo templates to match.
1. get rid of the whisper layer and handle everything in the communication layer
2. Create a gethWhisper and a parityWhisper plugin that has the same files as packages/embark/src/lib/modules/geth, except with a whisperClient instead of gethClient, and will include most of https://github.com/embark-framework/embark/blob/master/packages/plugins/whisper/src/index.js.
3. Get rid of any whisper registration in geth.
4. In the whisperGeth and whisperParity plugins, modify the request for communication:node:register, to end up calling `startWhisperNode`
