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`
When whisper was being started in a new process, the message displayed in the console was “Starting Blockchain node in another process”. This is misleading as it is the same message that geth/parity use to start up their processes.
Update whisper initialisation process messaging so it states “Starting Whisper node in another process”.
This PR adds support for EIP-712 (https://github.com/ethereum/EIPs/blob/master/EIPS/eip-712.md), by allowing the signing of typed data transactions using the `eth_signTypeData_v3` or `eth_signTypedData` request.
Add a module called `embark-rpc-manager` to handle all RPC transaction modifications.
The internal events management module extracted to `embark-core`. This allows other modules (ie plugins) to use a private instance of Embark’s event API.
Remove transaction modifications in `embark-accounts-manager` and leave only the functionality in this module that handle account management (ie funding of accounts). Other functionality was moved to `embark-rpc-manager`.
- Transactions should now reflect when a new node account is added via `personal_newAccount` or via the node itself (and once `eth_accounts` is requested).
- In the proxy, errors are handled for all cases and are now JSON-RPC spec-compliant.
- Always register `eth_signTypedData` RPC response and display error message if account cannot be found.
NOTE: Updated yarn.lock due to conflict after rebase.
Avoid race condition with rpc modifications
Refactor proxy to make request handling asynchronous, and to allow circumvention of forwarding requests to the node in cases where it is not needed.
Move loading of plugins to after core and stack components (in cmd_controller).
We should load custom plugins LAST (ie after all core and stack components, and after all Embark plugins). To do this, we disable automatic loading of plugins in the config, and allow them to be loading explicitly in cmd_controller.
Create a system that allows registration of custom plugins. Each plugin is generated in EmbarkJS by instantiating the registered class. For example, we can register a Plasma plugin and it will be generated in to EmbarkJS.Plasma with an instantiation of `embarkjs-plasma`. The DApp itself can then do what it wants with `EmbarkJS.Plasma` (ie call `EmbarkJS.Plasma.init()`.
NOTE: loading of custom plugins needs to be applied to all other commands in `cmd_controller`. This PR only loads custom plugins for the `run` command.
NOTE: This PR is based on branch fix/ws-eth-subscribe (#1850). I will rebase this PR when (and if) #1850 is merged.
The blockchain module should not contain any ethereum-specific code, and currently it contains a check to see if the blockchain has already been started.
This PR moves this check to blockchain client (ie geth or parity). This check function is registered along with the started callback.
style(@embark/stack/blockchain): add missing semicolon
The `WhisperGethClient` returns empty strings for its "new account" and "list
accounts" commands; if a command is an empty string then `Blockchain` should
not execute it.
* fix(@embark/solidity): fix solidity ipc connection with blockchain
When blockchain was run in another process, the IPC was connected,
but the compiler was not loaded, so the IPC calls never returned
* fix(@embark/geth): fix cb is not a fn because it needs request2
When making use of the `useBuiltIns: 'usage'` option for @babel/preset-env
(which is the case for all transpiled packages in Embark's monorepo) a package
needs to have both @babel/runtime-corejs3 and core-js@3 specified as
dependencies.
BREAKING CHANGE:
node: >=10.17.0 <12.0.0
npm: >=6.11.3
yarn: >=1.19.1
node v10.17.0 is the latest in the 10.x series and is still in the Active LTS
lifecycle. Embark is still not compatible with node's 12.x and 13.x
series (because of some dependencies), otherwise it would probably make sense
to bump our minimum supported node version all the way to the most recent 12.x
release.
npm v6.11.3 is the version that's bundled with node v10.17.0.
yarn v1.19.1 is the most recent version as of the time node v10.17.0 was
released.
