This commit add topic negotiation to the protocol.
On receiving a message from a client with version >= 1, we will generate
a shared key using Diffie-Hellman. We will record also which
installationID has sent us a message.
This key will be passed back to the above layer, which will then use to
start listening to a whisper topic (the `chat` namespace has no
knowledge of whisper).
When sending a message to a set of InstallationIDs, we check whether we
have agreed on a topic with all of them, and if so, we will send on this
separate topic, otherwise we fallback on discovery.
This change is backward compatible, as long as there is no downgrade of
the app on the other side.
A few changes:
* Factored out the DB in a separate namespace as now it is
being used by multiple services (TopicService and EncryptionService).
* Factored out multidevice management in a separate namespace
* Moved all the test to test the whole protoocl rather than just the encryption service
* Moved all the filter management in status-go
This commits adds support for postgres database.
Currently two fields are stored: the bloom filter and the topic.
Only the bloom filter is actually used to query, but potentially we will
use also the topic in the future, so easier to separate it now in order
to avoid a migration.
It was going to be used as proxy from discv5 to rendezvous for les nodes.
We are not using it at the moment, and not clear when we will be using it
and if we are going to use it all.
Additionally it has some memory leaks that need to be fixed, so it is better
to remove it for now and restore once/if we will need it again.
This commit updates geth to 1.8.17 and adds a possibility to enable metrics during compilation time.
The cascade of issues forced us to upgrade geth to 1.8.17 in order to allow enabling metrics during compilation time. 1.8.17 introduced `NodeID` refactoring and `enode` package which affected our peers pool and integration with Discovery V5.
- Replace command line flags with `-c` config flag. Part of #1180
- Convert node config private keys to hex-encoded string versions.
- Remove `GenerateConfig` from library.
- Remove unused `FirebaseConfig` from library.
- Fix loading of `config/status-chain-genesis.json` in non-dev machines.
In the current codebase if you want to use different keys (or any
other configuration) for tests it is required to place them at a
certain path in static folder, bundle them with go-bindata and only
then run tests. This is simply unnecessary.
This commit instead directs loads configurations from file without
relying on go-bindata
