bitcoin-s/release-notes/release-notes-1.9.0.md

1.9.0

This release is backwards incompatible with previous releases of bitcoin-s. You will not be able to build a DLC with prior releases of bitcoin-s. This was due to a bug in how we computed contractId in a DLC. See #4012 for more information.

See the individual module sections for more information on lower level updates to the codebase.

Running Bitcoin-S

If you want to run the standalone server binary, after verifying gpg signatures, you can unzip bitcoin-s-server-1.9.0.zip and then run it with ./bin/bitcoin-s-server to start the node. You will need to configure the node properly first, you can find example configurations here.

You can then unzip the bitcoin-s-cli-1.9.0.zip folder and start using the bitcoin-s-cli like this:

./bin/bitcoin-s-cli --help
Usage: bitcoin-s-cli [options] [<cmd>]

  -n, --network <value>    Select the active network.
  --debug                  Print debugging information
  --rpcport <value>        The port to send our rpc request to on the server
  -h, --help               Display this help message and exit

For more information on what commands bitcoin-s-cli supports check the documentation, here is where to start: https://bitcoin-s.org/docs/next/applications/server#server-endpoints

Verifying signatures

This release is signed with Chris's signing key with fingerprint 339A49229576050819083EB3F99724872F822910

To do the verification, first hash the executable using sha256sum. You should check that the result is listed in the SHA256SUMS.asc file next to its file name. After doing that you can use gpg --verify to authenticate the signature.

Example:

UPDATE ME!!!!!!!

$ sha256sum bitcoin-s-server-1.9.0.zip
aa1084edb5fcd3d1dbcafe0d0fba787abf4cd455bbe38809bd9a65a49c0cd0eb bitcoin-s-server-1.9.0.zip
$ gpg --verify SHA256SUMS.asc
gpg: Signature made Thu 24 Sep 2020 12:49:39 PM CDT
gpg:                using RSA key 339A49229576050819083EB3F99724872F822910
gpg:                issuer "stewart.chris1234@gmail.com"

Executive Summary

This release integrates Tor network support for opening a DLC with your counterparty. This is a huge UX improvement over the previous flow where 2 manual round trips were required to open a DLC with your peer.

See individual module sections for updates on per module basis.

App server

The major features shipped this release is support for websockets. You can now be notified of websocket events from the wallet, dlc wallet, and chain. These are used on the wallet-server-ui to notify when events happen

This module will be renamed to Wallet Server in future releases as that is a more accurate name for this module.

Db commons

A major theme this release is enabling our APIs to use database actions in Slick. This allows us to build database transactions to avoid corrupting data.

We also fixed some bugs in our database implementations around storing very large scriptpubkeys.

f71d3567ed 2021 11 23 crud action (#3851)

DLC node

The major change this release is implementing a connection timeout for dlc node. If we cannot connect to a peer within 45 seconds, we throw a timeout exception.

55ecc1ae8f Implement connection timeout (#4081)

019c9b2644 Fix log message failure in DLCDataHandler (#3845)

41cb26a3bb Make DLC node's external IP configurable (#3838)

DLC Oracle

Improvements to the database handling code so that announcement/attestation creation is transactional.

7f344ad3ff 2022 02 06 announcement creation logging (#4055)

524c5212e0 Add MasterXPubTable to list of DLCOracle tables (#3955)

c3d1b2ee12 Give DLCOracle to filter events by pending/completed (#3953)

DLC wallet

This release of dlc wallet fixes bugs for accepting offers multiple times.

We also add a new column in global_dlc_data for serialization_version for when we break binary level serialization in the DLC protocol spec. This will be done in the 2.0 release of bitcoin-s.

Finally there is a ton of improvements to database handling code.

Lnd rpc

Upgrades lnd to 0.14.2, implements more lnd rpc functionality.

079fa62073 Lnd v0.14.0 (#3835)

node

Fixes various bugs around broadcasting witness transactions. Also fixes bugs to make sure we fetch the entire witness transaction (witnesses included). Previously we wouldn't get the witness which leads to problems when calculating DLC outcome state.

This release also adds the ability to store peers we see on the p2p network in teh database. Eventually we will be able to connect to random peers we see on the p2p network rather than just connecting to the node configured in bitcoin-s.node.peers
