The recent introduction of helper methods on pubkey.h had the
side-effect of pulling in crypto libraries.
This splits the static methods into a separate namespace and file
to avoid such cross-module dependencies.
Move some files back to the server "library".
Merge the 'console' lib with server, as it doesn't really make sense with
just one file and nobody exclusively linking to it.
The server "libary" is not really a library, its the place we put all
the files shared by hub-qt hub-cli and hub.
We no longer depend on these files from other places (mostly due to
moving to the new logging framework) and as such we can move the files
back.
Remove dbcache option, flowee doesn't need it.
This is a legacy option that was needed when the leveldb layer was
used for the utxo, as that required us to write our own caching.
The API call for GetBlock has a filter-on-address functionality which is
now ported to no longer use ripe160 addresses but instead uses output-
script hashes.
This avoids problems for transactions not using p2pkh and generally is a
cleaner solution.
This also adds a unit test to test this feature.
Remove addresses of type ripe160 to be used in the API of AddresMonitor
API service. Instead use a sha256 hash of the entire output script.
This is mostly internal changes not affecting the operations much.
The usage of a ripe160 for bitcoin addresses in the API and in the
Indexer loses some info, specifically what kind of script it is.
Additionally not all types of scripts fit this mold. At best that means
its not future-proof.
This adds a method to the API in order to select from a Tx the hashed
outscript (thats singlehashed sha256) and refactor the address indexer
to use that instead of the ripe160 address.
The API enums broke a little, so I used the opportunity to break it a
lot and clean up the enums in order to make them more future-proof.
But, yeah, software from before this commit is protocol incompatible
with software after this commit.
