remove `news` leftovers (#4299) 2022-11-08 20:06:54 +00:00
Etan Kissling 634408ff2c
use `nim-websock` instead of `news` (#4061)
`news` has a few open issues that are not present in `nim-websock`:
1. There is a 1 second delay between each MB of sent data.
2. Cancelling an ongoing `send` makes the entire WebSocket unusable.
3. Control packets do not have priority over ongoing message frames.

Using `news`, there are quite a few of these messages in Geth:
```
Previously seen beacon client is offline. Please ensure it is
operational to follow the chain!
```
It may take quite some time to reconnect when this happens.

Using `nim-websock`, this message still occurs because `eth1_monitor`
reconnects the EL connection when no new blocks occurred for 5 minutes,
but reconnecting is quick and the message is rarer.

Revert writing backfill root to database (#3215)
Introduced in #3171, it turns out we can just follow the block headers
to achieve the same effect

* leaves the constant in the code so as to avoid confusion when reading
database that had the constant written (such as the fleet nodes and
other unstable users)

Logging and startup improvements (#3038)
* Logging and startup improvements

Color support for released binaries!

* startup scripts no longer log to file by default - this only affects
source builds - released binaries don't support file logging
* add --log-stdout option to control logging to stdout (colors, json)
* detect tty:s vs redirected logs and log accordingly
* add option to disable log colors at runtime
* simplify several "common" logs, showing the most important information
earlier and more clearly
* remove line numbers / file information / tid - these take up space and
are of little use to end users
  * still enabled in debug builds and tools
* remove `testnet_servers_image` compile-time option
* server images, released binaries and compile-from-source now offer
the same behaviour and features
* fixes https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2/issues/2326
* fixes https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2/issues/1794
* remove instanteneous block speed from sync message, keeping only
average
