The former was a stale test that we never got to a properly
working state, so we replace it with test/e2e-coinjoin-test.py
which does the same job more effectively, using the RPC-API.
Also removed the old file from parameters of run_tests script.
Also, exports JMMakerClientProtocol for custom directory node scripts
(stored in the custom-scripts repo).
Modify default config with 2 signet and mainnet directory nodes to
start.
Handles unreachable directory nodes with a human readable error and
adjusts connection timeouts to be realistic.
Changes wording in Qt notifications from "IRC" to message channel.
Updates docs, new directory node information.
In the previous commit, all peers served an onion.
After this commit, taker client instances will automatically
send a config var to the jmdaemon backend that instructs
the OnionMessageChannel instance to not start an onion service,
and the handshake messages sent by these peers replace the
onion location with a placeholder string NOT-SERVING-ONION.
Directories and maker peers will not therefore to connect outbound
to them, but privmsging still happens p2p with connections from
takers to makers after the directory has communicated their
reachable .onion addresses.
This change reduces the configuration requirement for takers and
is better for their privacy and security (without sacrificing
the gain we get from having p2p connections).
The above comments re: takers also apply to ob-watcher bots.
This commit also fixes a large number of minor bugs and errors in
documentation, as well as many Python cleanups after review from
@PulpCattel. A few concrete items are:
It fixes the ob-watcher functionality to work with the new subclass
of MessageChannel (OnionMessageChannel).
It corrects the on_nick_leave trigger to make dynamic nick switching
between MessageChannels (as implemented in MessageChannelCollection)
work correctly.
It corrects the order of events in the add_peer workflow to ensure that
a handshake can always be sent so that the activation of the connection
always works.
It sets a default messaging config with onion, 2 active IRC servers and
one inactive IRC server. The onion config has 2 signet directory nodes,
so this will change to mainnet after the PR is merged to master.
Joinmarket bots run their own onion services allowing inbound connections.
Both takers and makers connect to other makers at the mentioned
onion services, over Tor.
Directory nodes run persistent onion services allowing peers to
find other (maker) peers to connect to, and also forwarding
messages where necessary.
This is implemented as an alternative to IRC, i.e. a new
implementation of the abstract class MessageChannel, in onionmc.py.
Note that using both this *and* IRC servers is supported; Joinmarket
supports multiple, redundant different communication methods,
simultaneously.
Messaging is done with a derived class of twisted's LineReceiver,
and there is an additional layer of syntax, similar to but not the
same as the IRC syntax for ensuring that messages are passed with
the same J5.. nick as is used on IRC. This allows us to keep the
message signing logic the same as before. As well as Joinmarket line
messages, we use additional control messages to communicate peer lists,
and to manage connections.
Peers which send messages not conforming to the syntax are dropped.
See https://github.com/JoinMarket-Org/JoinMarket-Docs/pull/12 for
documentation of the syntax.
Connections to directory nodes are robust as for IRC servers, in
that we use a ReconnectingClientFactory to keep trying to re-establish
broken connections with exponential backoff. Connections to maker
peers do not require this feature, as they will often disconnect
in normal operation.
Multiple directory nodes can and should be configured by bots.
