... which requires a bunch of unnecessary dev dependencies, e.g., `zip`.
Instead we lean on the `download_bitcoind_electrs.sh` script also for
local testing.
This uses the newly introduced conditional configuration checks that are
now configurable withint Cargo (beta).
This allows us to get rid of our custom python script that checks for
expected features and cfgs.
This does introduce a warning regarding the unknown lint in Cargo
versions prior to the current beta, but since these are not rustc errors,
they won't break any builds with the "-D warnings" RUSTFLAG.
Moving to this lint actually exposed the "strict" feature not being
present in the lightning-invoice crate, as our python script didnt
correctly parse the cfg_attr where it appeared.
.. as the `electrsd` crate doesn't support it.
While we previously did so in our CI script, we now also `cfg`-gate the
tests and dependencies for easier handling.
Previously, we used the auto-download feature of the
`electrsd`/`bitcoind` crates. While convenient, they unnecessarily
introduced a lot of dependecies (`zip`, `zstd`, `time`, etc.) to our
test environment which needed pinning for the MSRV of 1.63.
Here, we introduce a new `no_download` config flag to the
`lightning-transaction-sync` crate allowing us to disable this
auto-download feature in CI, where we now opt to download the
corresponding binaries manually. We keep the default-auto-download as a
convenience feature for running tests locally though.
`OnceCell` doesn't call `drop`, which makes the spawned
`bitcoind`/`electrsd` instances linger around after our tests have
finished. To fix this, we move them out of `OnceCell` and let every test
that needs them spawn their own instances. This additional let us drop
the `OnceCell` dev dependency.
To support HTTPS endpoints, the async HTTP library `reqwest` needs one of
the `-tls` features enabled. While the users could specify this in their
own cargo dependencies, we here provide a new `esplora-async-https`
feature for conveinience.
We have some downstream folks who are using LDK in wasm compiled
via the normal rust wasm path. To ensure nothing breaks they want
to use `no-std` on the lightning crate, disabling time calls as
those panic. However, the HTTP logic in
`lightning-transaction-sync` gets automatically stubbed out by the
HTTP client crates when targeting wasm via `wasm_bindgen`, so it
works fine despite the std restrictions.
In order to make both work, `lightning-transaction-sync` can remain
`std`, but needs to not automatically enable the `std` flag on the
`lightning` crate, ie by setting `default-features = false`. We do
so here.
This crate provides utilities for syncing LDK via the transaction-based
`Confirm` interface. The initial implementation facilitates
synchronization with an Esplora backend server.
