To facilitate easier management by users and to
follow generally accepted standards, this PR moves
the following all to user home directory, subdir
.joinmarket :
joinmarket.cfg file
wallets/ directory
logs/ directory
cmtdata/ directory
commitmentlist file
User can override location with --datadir option.
An info message is added on startup showing location.
In refactor for #359 it was noted that the wallet
monitoring loop in Qt updated the status bar every
5 seconds, overwriting any existing status updates.
This fixes that UI bug so that the wallet synced
successfully (or unsucessfully) message is only shown
at start up or if there is a change of status (i.e.
the wallet monitoring loop stops working).
Closes#274. Utxos are disabled if they are sent
to a reused address, and are below a threshold
set by the value `max_sats_freeze_reuse` in the
`POLICY` section of the config file. If the value
is -1, such utxos are always frozen irrespective of
the value.
Users are prompted with a warning level logging message
on CLI and a popup on Joinmarket-Qt. Such disabled utxos
can of course be re-enabled by the existing methods.
Also adds test case for address reuse freezing function.
Fixes#459. If the mixdepth chosen is empty, shutdown
immediately with ARGERROR. User can either choose a
different mixdepth and try again, or receive payment
another way.
Fixes#438
Prior to this commit, if Load Wallet were selected
from the menu and a wallet loaded did not have imports,
the restart prompt message appeared only on the console
and the application quit via sys.exit().
After this commit, the Qt restart callback is always used,
as intended. The case of recovery sync for old, heavily
used wallets is not covered.
Prior to this commit, the user was prompted to check for
the acceptability of fees in Qt via a dialog, but settings
used in CLI (max_cj_fee_***) were not also being used the
same way in Qt.
After this commit, if the user has not added those settings,
a dialog is presented with new randomised defaults (as for
CLI), and otherwise any settings in the config file are read
and used.
PR #367 and follow up edits were designed to give a sanity
check to users for fees, but require specifying a payment
amount, this could be generalised to custom schedules but
for now the simplest change is to remove this check for
schedules. Thanks to @roshii for flagging the error.
The schedule format gets an extra field added denoting the number of
significant figures to round the coinjoin amounts to, with 16 meaning
no rounding.
This is part of the 2/2019 Plan to improve the privacy of JoinMarket's
tumbler script:

The tumbler schedule is split into two stages. Stage 2 is the same
as before while stage 1 attempts to fully spend each mixdepth in a
sweep coinjoin with no change address.
The wait time between these stage 1 coinjoins is longer than for
stage 2 coinjoins, the increase is determined by a new parameter
called `stage1_timelambda_increase`.

Since ConfigParser does not sufficiently support comments
in config objects, in order to support dynamic update of
the config from within a run, this PR edits the config
file at the same time as updating the config object, so
as to prevent the earlier problem that all comments in the
config file were lost whenever Qt updated the file with
the new config object.
in the JM TX's instead of just for preliminary
estimations. Now it is a way to temporarily override
the tx_fees setting in joinmarket.cfg and behaves
exactly the same way as describes there.
Introduces WalletService object which is in control of
blockchain and wallet access.
The service manages a single transaction monitoring loop,
instead of multiple, and allows updates to the wallet from
external sources to be handled in real time, so that both Qt
and other apps (yg) can respond to deposits or withdrawals
automatically.
The refactoring also controls access to both wallet and
blockchain so that client apps (Taker, Maker) will not need
to be changed for future new versions e.g. client-side filtering.
Also updates and improves Wallet Tab behaviour in Qt (memory
of expansion state).
Additionally, blockchain sync is now --fast by default, with
the former default of detailed sync being renamed --recoversync.
This refactors YieldGeneratorBasic a bit. In particular, we move things
that custom algorithms will most likely want to change to separate
functions. That way, it is easy to define the behaviour of inputs
and outputs for the join without the need to duplicate the other, more
general logic of create_my_orders and oid_to_order.
Prior to this commit, if an invalid destination address
was entered on the command line for the tumbler script,
the invalidity would cause a crash at the time a transaction
was built with this destination (during the run).
After this commit, all destination addresses entered on
startup are checked immediately and the program quits with
this information if a specific address is invalid.
In commit 22467f4 a bug was introduced whereby detailed
sync was used instead of fast sync, but with only one
iteration, in Joinmarket-Qt, in certain circumstances,
leading to incorrect wallet reporting/display. This commit
reverts that change (except for function name change).
There may still be edge cases for large wallets doing
recovery in Qt but this will be dealt with later.
