In this commit, we increase the gRPC block size from 4MB to 50MB.
Recently, the output of `lncli describegraph` has hit the block size cap
due to the expansion of the mainnet graph. Without this attempts to
fetch the graph returns an error of:
```
[lncli] rpc error: code = ResourceExhausted desc = grpc: received message larger than max (4246753 vs. 4194304)
```
With this commit, we give ourselves some breathing room. It's important
to note that the max message size limit is a _client side_ setting. As a
result, any developers driving `lnd` with gRPC will also need to raise
their block size limit as well if they wish to fetch the graph over
gRPC.
Returns a brief json summary of each utxo found by calling
ListUnspentWitness in the wallet. The two arguments are the
minimum and maximum number of conrfirmations (0=include
unconfirmed)
Using AbandonChannel, a channel can be abandoned. This means
removing all state without any on-chain or off-chain action.
A close summary is the only thing that is stored in the db after
abandoning.
A specific close type Abandoned is added. Abandoned channels
can be retrieved via the ClosedChannels RPC.
In this commit, we ensure that we're able to properly parse the cert and
macaroon paths for all relevant config variants. Before this commit, it
would be the case that the macaroon path ended up empty if a user wasn't
running the default (mainnet, lnddir) settings. In this commit, we
remedy this by parsing each of the two (cert+macaroon) paths
independently.
Since we're now able to create a base LND directory that no longer lives
under the OS specific application data directory, we modify
cleanAndExpandPath to replace the `~` in a path to the current user's
home directory, rather than the user's application data directory.
In this commit, we introduce a new flag `--lnddir` that allows us to
set a different base directory, other than the OS specific application
data directory, for all related lnd files and directories.
In this commit, we add a new closeallchannels command to lncli. This
command allows us to close all existing active and inactive channels
by closing them cooperatively or unilaterally, respectively.
This commit reworks the macaroon authentication framework to use the
v2 macaroon format and bakery API. It also replaces the code in each
RPC method which calls the macaroon verifier with interceptors which
call the macaroon verifier instead. In addition, the operation
permissions are reworked to fit the new format of "allow" commands
(specifically, entity/operation permissions instead of method
permissions).
Early in the lifetime of the project here were a few files we either
copied entirely, or used as the basis for code within lnd. Before this
PR, this was not recognized by retaining the original copyright. With
this commit, we remedy that by explicitly noting the copyright in the
relevant files.
Fixes#423.
lncli create:
This command is used to set up a wallet encryption password for
use with lnd at first time use. It will ask fot the user to
confirm the chosen password, then do a call to the lnd RPC method
CreateWallet with the chosen password.
lncli unlock:
This command is used to unlock the wallet of a running lnd instance.
It calls the RPC method UnlockWallet with the provided password.
Both methods makes use of the terminal.ReadPassword method, to
securely read a password from user input without making it
replayable in the terminal.
This commit adds simple non-blocking stop command to lncli, with an
appropriate proto update and implementation within the rpcserver. When
invoked the interrupt handler routine in signal.go with begin the graceful
shutdown of lnd.
