The main motivation behind this change is to get just a little
telemetry information from nodes on the network, namely the version
of Radicle they are running.
This is achieved by rewriting `impl Default for UserAgent` which now
uses the version information provided by the build script also used
in other crates.
Also, a new configuration option `node.userAgent` is added, which
allows users to override the user agent if they so please, or set
the value `null`, which will in turn send the user agent
`/radicle/`, which is not really helpful, and the default prior to
this commit.
Creations of `UserAgent` in the whole workspace is cleaned up. In
order to do that `UserAgent::test` is introduced.
Teach the `rad sync` and `rad clone` commands to accept the
`--signed-refs-feature-level` option. This option configures that
fetch to use the minimum feature level provided when fetching from
other nodes. This overrides the value of
`node.fetch.signedReferences.featureLevel.minimum`, and should only be
used in scenarios where it is necessary to downgrade the security of a
fetch for backwards compatibility.
To achieve this, the `Handle::fetch` method introduces an optional
parameter for threading through the `FeatureLevel`.
IPv6 addresses are already persisted in `config.json` files.
The parsing of these old addresses, e.g. `FE80::0202:B3FF:FE1E:8329:5976` should remain valid.
Emit a warning when they are found.
The output of the address will still enclose the host in `[]`.
Introduces the ability to explicitly block a peer via the node control
socket. Previously, the node only exposed follow and unfollow commands.
While the underlying policy database schema supported a Block variant,
there was no mechanism to trigger this state via the client handle.
The new block command:
1. Updates the node's follow policy to Block.
2. Immediately disconnects the peer if a session is active.
Recent versions of Windows support Unix Domain Sockets natively, see
<https://devblogs.microsoft.com/commandline/af_unix-comes-to-windows/>.
By using that feature instead of Windows named pipes, the difference
for handling communication via the control socket comparing Unix-like
systems and Windows becomes smaller:
1. No special paths like `\.\pipe\…` have to be handled.
2. Not two I/O mechanisms are abstracted (named pipe and UDS) but
just one.
3. `winpipe` relies on background threads while `uds_windows` does
not.
Once the feature `windows_unix_domain_sockets` (which is tracked at
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/150487) stabilizes, it will
likely be possible to just drop the dependency `uds_windows` and use
the implementation in `std::os::windows::net` directly.
Wire up the new `FetcherService`. This reduces the `Service` fetch
methods down to:
- `fetch`
- `fetched`
- `dequeue_fetches`
- `fetch_refs_at`
This simplifies the code by off-loading the logic to the `fetcher`
family of types, rather than handling the intricacies in the `Service`
itself.
The `Service` now just performs the necessary I/O based on the
returned events from the `fetcher`.
This also removes the fetching state from the node sessions. This
follows the single responsibility, and sessions now only care about
their connectivity.
Breaking changes:
- The `Connected` state of a peer no longer contains fetching
information, which was being returned as part of the JSON payload
result.
- The `rad debug` information for ongoing fetches contained the number
listeners awaiting for results, this was removed.
The `localtime` crate was defined by cloudhead, and is a minimal
repository with a single `lib.rs`.
Instead of using it as an external dependency, copy the code directly
into a new workspace crate `radicle-localtime`.
The default `serde` implementation goes through the `LocalTime`'s
seconds values rather than milliseconds, since this is the more common
format. This allows the removal of the `serde_ext` functions.
The one place milliseconds was used was for the
`radicle::cob::common::Timestamp` type, where the `Serialize` and
`Deserialize` implementations are manually written.
It also adds a `schemars` feature to remove `schemars_ext` functions
in `radicle` as well.
`Address:is_local` would return `false` for all DNS names. This is
incorrect, with one counterexample being the name "localhost", which
generally resolves to a local (usually loopback) address.
The function is changed to catch "localhost", but also the top level
domain ".localhost", which is reserved in RFC 2606, Section 2.
`Address::is_routable` would return `true` for all DNS names. While it
is much harder to decide global routeability based on a domain name, as
these usually have to be resolved to an address before being able to
judge routability, there is one particular class of names, namely local
ones (see above), which are not globally routable.
There is an unfortunate lack of single-responsibility with handling the
addresses to connect to.
This is a band-aid fix until the point in time where this can better improved.
Make `git2` an *optional* dependency of `radicle-cob`, and refactor
`radicle` to depend on crates that in turn do not depend on `git2`
*non-optionally*
The main offending dependency of `radicle-cob` is `radicle-git-ext`
from the `radicle-git` workspace in repository
(rad:z6cFWeWpnZNHh9rUW8phgA3b5yGt) which *non-optionally* depends on
`git2`.
So, to achieve removal of this dependency:
1. The crate is refactored to depend on the new crates
`radicle-git-ref-format` `radicle-git-metadata`, and
`radicle-oid` introduced in the previous commits, instead of
`radicle-git-ext`.
2. Some code from the `radicle-git-ext` crate in the `radicle-git`
workspace in repository (rad:z6cFWeWpnZNHh9rUW8phgA3b5yGt) is
copied. See `crates/radicle-cob/src/backend/git/commit.rs`.
This cascades to `radicle` and its dependents.
Firstly, the there is an
`impl Deref<Target=git2::Oid> for radicle_git_ext::Oid`. This made
it very convenient to just deref to obtain the wrapped `git2::Oid`,
so there are many expressions of the shape `*oid` in `radicle` and
its dependents. However `radicle-oid` does not provide
`impl Deref<Target=git2::Oid> for radicle_oid::Oid`, as notably,
`Target` is an associated type, and not a type parameter, so an
implementation of `Deref` would tie the new `Oid` too tightly to a
particular implementation.
Instead, work with `impl From<radicle_oid::Oid> for git2::Oid`
(which can be enabled using the feature flag `radicle-oid/git2`).
This explains the changes from `*oid` to `oid.into()` at every
transition to "`git2` land".
Secondly, `radicle` and its dependents are refactored to also depend
on `radicle-git-ref-format` and (much less prominently)
`radicle-git-metadata` instead of `radicle-git-ext`
This is to avoid pulling in `git2` via these dependencies.
Thirdly, as the re-exports in `crates/radicle/src/git.rs` change,
they are at the same time also cleaned up. Notably, the types from
`radicle-git-ref-format` are re-exported under `fmt` only, not "twice".
While overall this obviously is very much a breaking change, these
changes should mostly amount to changing from `Deref` to `Into`, i.e.,
`*oid` → `oid.into()` and rewriting imports for `radicle::fmt`.
This is indicated by the mostly mechanical nature of the changes to
`crates/radicle-{cli,node,remote-helper}`.
The dependencies `netservices`, `io-reactor` and `popol` served us well,
however they do not support Windows and are not actively maintained.
This change removes the aforementioned dependencies (and `libc` along
with them). It reuses the integration with `cyphernet` from
`netservices` for Noise and SOCKS.
The new module `reactor` is a rewrite of `io-reactor` on top of Mio.
Note that no tests were changed.
The "seeds" command does only take a repository ID, and
carries the implicit assumption that the namespace with the same public
key as the Node ID of the receiving `radicle-node` process should be
used as reference for determining whether other nodes are in sync,
but no other namespace.
In the spirit of separating user and node identity, relax this, so that
the command also carries the public keys relative to which the sync
status should be computed. This allows to inspect sync status for
arbitrary namespaces via command.
For now, this feature is not exposed to the CLI, but `rad sync status`
always passes the public key of the active profile.
The "announce references" command does only take a repository ID, and
carries the implicit assumption that the namespace with the same public
key as the Node ID of the receiving `radicle-node` process should be
announced, but no other namespace.
In the spirit of separating user and node identity, relax this, so that
the command also carries the public keys for which the announcement
should be made. This allows to announce arbitrary namespaces out of
storage via command.
For now, this feature is not exposed to the CLI, but rather:
- `rad sync` always announce for the public key of the active profile.
- `git-remote-rad` ditto, as it calls the same codepath.
The `winpipe` crate which is our current best bet for support on Windows
requires that named pipes are at the magical location `\\.pipe\`.
Provide a default on Windows that matches this, and use our freshly
assigned IANA service name for it.
This is a breaking change, as we remove a `pub const`, it should be
reasonably easy to fix by dependents, and probably it was a mistake to
make the default `pub const` as dependents should call `Home::socket`
anyway.
When initializing the `radicle-node` process, see
`radicle-node/src/runtime.rs`, an attempt is made to read from a node
announcement file.
This file is never written, therefore all of these reads fail.
Even though this caching mechanism might make sense or might have made
sense at some point, it is dead code now, and therefore removed.
Also, the fact that the file name was defined in the `radicle` crate is
ugly.
Pay more attention to when a Node ID is displayed in compact form. As
this was sometimes used to save space, e.g. in `rad node status` in
combination with long node addresses (like .onion names), also implement
a compact format for node addresses and use that instead in some cases.
Progress notifications in spinners keep the short form.
