This commit adds an initial rough implementation father ChainNotifier
interface for neutrino, our new light client implementation. This
implementation largely borrows from the existing BtcdNotifier
implementation. As a result, a follow up commit will perform two
refactoring in order to further consolidate code.
This commit adds a new implementation of the FilteredChainView
interface. This implementation speaks purely to the p2p network and is
backed by a new experimental light client implementation.
This commit adds a new set of behavioral interface level tests to the
chain view package. This set of tests can now be used in order to check
proper conformity to this “specification” for all future
implementations of the chain view package.
This commit adds the first concrete implementation of the
chainview.FilteredChainView interface. The implementation of this
interface, BtcdFilteredChainView is backed by a web sockets connection
to an active btcd instance.
This commit creates a new package as sub-package within the routing
package: chainview. This package is centered around a single interface
definition: the FilteredChainView. This interface is to be used to
allow the routing package to watch a _subset_ of the UTXO set for any
modifications. In the case of LN, the subset of the UTXO set that we
care about is the set of currently opened channels.
In a future commit the routing package will be modified to remove the
current full block scanning with processing of FilteredBlock
notification, and proper updates to the filter as observed by the
FilteredChainView.
