Joinmarket-clientserver 0.5.2: |
||||||
|
================= |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<https://github.com/joinmarket-org/joinmarket-clientserver/releases/tag/v0.5.2> |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This release contains a fix for IRC connection difficulties which should be |
||||||
|
installed as soon as possible. It also adds the ability to make payments with PayJoin (aka P2EP), |
||||||
|
a CoinJoin variant, including using bech32 wallets (for PayJoin but not Joinmarket coinjoin, at the moment), |
||||||
|
colored log formatting and a number of other minor improvements. |
||||||
|
|
||||||

|
Upgrading |
||||||
|
========= |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
To upgrade (but: read and follow instructions in 0.4.0 if from pre-0.4.0): |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
First run the `install.sh` script as mentioned in the README. When prompted to overwrite the directory `jmvenv`, accept. |
||||||
|
To install using Python2, use `./install.sh -p python2` ; the default is now Python3. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Note that `.install.sh -?` will show the options for installation. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If you are running JoinmarketQt, note that Python2 is incompatible. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Notable changes |
||||||
|
=============== |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### PayJoin feature (aka Pay-to-Endpoint/P2EP). |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In short, this allows users of Joinmarket wallet to pay each other with a coinjoin. |
||||||
|
This has a number of excellent properties in terms of improving privacy. To use, the |
||||||
|
receiver runs the new script `receive-payjoin.py` and the sender runs `sendpayment.py` |
||||||
|
with the option `-T`. See [here](https://github.com/JoinMarket-Org/joinmarket-clientserver/blob/master/docs/PAYJOIN.md) |
||||||
|
for more detailed instructions on how to use. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
See [here](https://joinmarket.me/blog/blog/payjoin/) for conceptual explanation, which also links to other |
||||||
|
writeups about the concept. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This can be used with a BIP84 bech32 wallet, but the latter is *not* compatible with Joinmarket coinjoins. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`28abddf` Implement payjoin (p2ep) direct payment joins |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`72b2014 add normal payment info to PAYJOIN doc |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Fix IRC connection issues (startup and new server) |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
See #51 for background. While IRC server drops during operation were handled transparently, with |
||||||
|
communication continuing on the remaining message channels, the bots would, prior to this fix, not start |
||||||
|
up at all if *all* the configured message channels did not start up successfully. In recent days one of the |
||||||
|
two default pre-configured public IRC servers (agora/anarplex.net) stopped functioning/allowing bots to join. |
||||||
|
Hence many users on default setups would find their bots blocked from joining the joinmarket pit. |
||||||
|
Hence this fix (long overdue!) to continue/complete the startup process after a timeout of 60 seconds, if one |
||||||
|
of the configured message channels (there can be as many as you like) fails to complete its startup. In short, |
||||||
|
as long as one server is available, your bot will start up after at most 60 seconds. |
||||||
|
Shorter timeouts are probably undesirable, particularly Taker side, since you don't want to miss half the |
||||||
|
liquidity in the pit just because you were too impatient to wait for the server to fully connect. |
||||||
|
Additionally, a third default server (darkscience) has been added to the config, which supports connecting |
||||||
|
to a hidden service over Tor. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
(Joinmarket's architecture in principle supports an arbitrary number of message channels, and they don't have to |
||||||
|
be IRC servers (as long as derived classes implement 4 key methods).) |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Users should refresh/recreate a joinmarket.cfg** (by setting their current one's name to joinmarket.cfg.bak for |
||||||
|
example) and then copy over the new default MESSAGING section settings, and then edit them as they prefer. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`c6dabae` Add startup redundancy to IRC servers. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`7ee18af` Add darkscience IRC to default configuration. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Colored terminal logging |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
We now use a python package [chromalog](https://chromalog.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) to support colored logging |
||||||
|
of Joinmarket bots on the terminal; this is due to the fact that logs are pretty noisy but also sometimes necessary |
||||||
|
to look at (and this is particularly true of the new PayJoin feature, among some others). For those who find |
||||||
|
the color scheme unreadable or undesirable on their chosen terminal setup, set `color = false` in the LOGGING |
||||||
|
section of joinmarket.cfg and it will be switched off. Note of course that log *files* are unaffected by this. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`c139067` Include chromalog package for colorized logs |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`bc6228f` Fix "AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'replace'" when jmprint() called with None as msg |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`0ce9392` Allow user to switch off colored logging New config setting [LOGGING]color=true/false |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Minor changes |
||||||
|
