Fixes
- Geth client now uses miner.gastarget instead of the deprecated targetGasLimit
- Workaround for shh_version with Parity
Reworks of other PRs into the new code
- Included delayed proxy
- Send ready only when the proxy is started
- Start HTTP and WS proxies individually
- Async setupProxy
- Fixed datadir for GethMiner
In cases a blockchain client exits before Embark is done doing its work,
the current error message doesn't provide any pointers to why this
happened.
Running `$ embark blockchain` separately could yield more information by
the underlying process.
The datadir path was not being passed to the miner, was resolving as `undefined`, and therefore, was not setting up an ipc connection correctly and no communication was happening.
The fix passes the `datadir` from the blockchain config to the miner in the constructor.
As geth is starting up, the output is monitored for endpoint info. Once the HTTP or WS endpoints are opened, the corresponding proxies are started.
This is more maintainable in the long run in case the geth process being started does not allow for rpc or websockets, or geth modifies the order in which endpoint are opened.
When `isDev` is false, and `mineWhenNeeded` is true, embark attempts to create a new account using `geth account new`, and uses the password file specified in `blockchain/config > accounts > password`. This warning informs the user that the create account command may fail if the password is missing.
