The previous commit introduces the BisqGrpcServer as a proof of concept,
but it is not yet ready for production use. This commit removes the
`--desktopWithGrpcApi` option that starts the gRPC server until such
time that it is production-ready.
This change also removes the `--desktopWithHttpApi` option for starting
an HTTP API server. The option has been in place for some time, but it
was 'false advertising' in the sense that nothing actually happened if
the user specified it, because there is in fact no HTTP API
implementation to be started.
Note that when the gRPC API option is reintroduced, it will be renamed
to `--rpcserver` or similar, following the convention in Bitcoin Core.
This commit introduces a new `grpc` module including the following key
types:
- BisqGrpcServer: The API implementation itself, along with generated
gRPC Response/Reploy types defined in grpc/src/main/proto/grpc.proto.
- BisqGrpcServerMain: A 'headless' / daemon-like entry point for
running a Bisq node without the JavaFX desktop UI.
- BisqGrpcClient: A simple, repl-style client for the API that allows
the user to exercise the various endpoints as seen in the example
below.
In the `desktop` module, the BisqAppMain class has been modified to
start a BisqGrpcServer instance if the `--desktopWithGrpcApi` option has
been set to `true`.
In the `core` module, a new `CoreApi` class has been introduced
providing a kind of comprehensive facade for all Bisq functionality to
be exposed via the RPC API.
How to explore the proof of concept:
1. Run the main() method in BisqAppMain providing
`--desktopWithGrpcApi=true` as a program argument or alternatively, run
the main() method in BisqGrpcServerMain, where no special option is
required. In either case, you'll notice the following entry in the log
output:
INFO bisq.grpc.BisqGrpcServer: Server started, listening on 8888
2. Now run the main() method in BisqGrpcClient. Once it has started up
you are connected to the gRPC server started in step 1 above. To
exercise the API, type `getVersion` via stdin and hit return. You
should see the following response:
INFO bisq.grpc.BisqGrpcClient - 1.2.4
Likewise, you can type `getBalance` and you'll see the following
response:
INFO bisq.grpc.BisqGrpcClient - 0.00 BTC
and so forth for each of the implemented endpoints. For a list of
implemented endpoints, see BisqGrpcServer.start().
Note once again that the code here is merely a proof of concept and
should not be considered complete or production-ready in any way. In a
subsequent commit, the `--desktopWithGrpcApi` option will be disabled in
order to avoid any potential production use.

The method formatAccountAge is replacing the string "1 days" for "1 day".
This is done to fix the plural for that case.
But it is also changing strings like "21 days" into "21 day".
Use a LinkedHashMap in place of a List, for the caching CurrencyUtil
fields 'allSortedFiatCurrencies' & 'allSortedCryptoCurrencies', using
the same iteration order as before. In this way, we can avoid a linear
search in the lookup methods getFiatCurrency & getCryptoCurrency.
In particular, this speeds up the activation of TradesChartsView (and to
a lesser extent OfferBookChartView), which make a lot of calls to
CurrencyUtil.getTradeCurrency in the fillTradeCurrencies/updateChartData
methods respectively.
At mediation we require a min. payout to the losing party to keep
incentive for the trader to accept the mediated payout. For Refund
agent cases we do not have that restriction.
These are mostly injected objects that are now redundant, such as some
CoinFormatter and Preferences fields.
Also do some additional minor tidying of TradesChartsViewModel.
If a trader has a pending trade with an unconfirmed tx and is doing a
spv resync, the deposit tx is not found. They get displayed a popup
asking to restart and if problem continues to move trade to failed
trades. In regtest testing the missing deposit tx was always received
from the network at a restart. So this commit adds another button as
default button to shut down Bisq so that the user do first that activity
instead of moving the trade to failed trades.
It is not guaranteed that the trader will receive the missing deposit tx
at restart, but at least it is better as the state before. We should
find a way how to distinguish a valid unconfirmed tx from an invalid one
but it is not clear yet how we can do that and if it is feasible with
doing that with BitcoinJ only. It might require a external service to
look up the tx if it is in the mem pool, but even that will never gie a
100% certainty.
