This commit adds support for images in protobuf messages.
The client can specify a path which will be used to load the image
and set the corresponding fields.
This makes the assumption that the RCP server runs on the same machine
as the client and they have access to the same files. This holds
currently for both status-react and status-console-client, we could
revisit and adds an upload if that changes in the future.
Why make the changes?
Mainly performance, those fields are almost always present in the
database but they are re-calculated on load by the client as it does not
have necessarily access to it.
What has changed?
- Remove `_legacy` persistence namespaces as it's a vestige of the
initial move frmo status-react to status-go
- Pulling chats is now a join with contacts to add contact & alias
If the user deletes/leaves a group chat, the chat is set as not active.
This means that if we are re-invited to the chat it won't be shown to
the user.
This commit changes this behavior so that if we are re-invited to the
chat it is set as active again.
When receiving a message with save a contact in the database in order to
avoid re-calculating image/profile.
This contact is then passed to the client, which can negatively impact
performance.
This commit changes the behavior so that only those contacts that have
some custom fields (have been explicitly added by the user, have been
blocked by the user, have sent a contact request or have a verified ens
name) are passed to the client.
Currently replies to messages are handled in status-react.
This causes some issues with the fact that sometimes replies might come
out of order, they might be offloaded to the database etc.
This commit changes the behavior so that status-go always returns the
replies, and in case a reply comes out of order (first the reply, later
the message being replied to), it will include in the messages the
updated message.
It also adds some fields (RTL,Replace,LineCount) to the database which
were not previously saved, resulting in some potential bugs.
The method that we use to pull replies is currently a bit naive, we just
pull all the message again from the database, but has the advantage of
being simple. It will go through performance testing to make sure
performnace are acceptable, if so I think it's reasonable to avoid some
complexity.
Currently ENS are verified explicitly by status-react, this is not ideal
as if that fails it will have to be explicilty retried in status-react.
This commits changes that behavior so that ENS are verified in a loop
and updated if new messages are received.
This commit pegs the clock value to maximum + 120 seconds from the whisper
timestamp.
In this way the we avoid the scenario where a client makes the timestamp
increase arbitrarely.
This commit does a few things:
1) Handle membership updates using protobuf and adds the relevant
endpoints.
2) Store in memory a map of chats + contacts for faster lookups, which
are then flushed to disk on each update
3) Validate incoming messages
Sorry for the large pr, but you know, v1 :)
* Use a single Message type `v1/message.go` and `message.go` are the same now, and they embed `protobuf.ChatMessage`
* Use `SendChatMessage` for sending chat messages, this is basically the old `Send` but a bit more flexible so we can send different message types (stickers,commands), and not just text.
* Remove dedup from services/shhext. Because now we process in status-protocol, dedup makes less sense, as those messages are going to be processed anyway, so removing for now, we can re-evaluate if bringing it to status-go or not.
* Change the various retrieveX method to a single one:
`RetrieveAll` will be processing those messages that it can process (Currently only `Message`), and return the rest in `RawMessages` (still transit). The format for the response is:
`Chats`: -> The chats updated by receiving the message
`Messages`: -> The messages retrieved (already matched to a chat)
`Contacts`: -> The contacts updated by the messages
`RawMessages` -> Anything else that can't be parsed, eventually as we move everything to status-protocol-go this will go away.
