This commit changes the format used to store payments within the
DB. Previously this was serialized as one continuous struct
OutgoingPayment, which also contained an Invoice struct we where only
using a few fields of. We now split it up into two simpler sub-structs
CreationInfo, AttemptInfo and PaymentPreimage.
We also want to associate the payments more closely with payment
statuses, so we move to this hierarchy:
There's one top-level bucket "sentPaymentsBucket" which contains a set
of sub-buckets indexed by a payment's payment hash. Each such sub-bucket
contains several fields:
paymentStatusKey -> the payment's status
paymentCreationInfoKey -> the payment's CreationInfo.
paymentAttemptInfoKey -> the payment's AttemptInfo.
paymentSettleInfoKey -> the payment's preimage (or zeroes for
non-settled payments)
The CreationInfo is information that is static during the whole payment
lifcycle. The attempt info is set each time a new payment attempt
(route+paymentID) is sent on the network. The preimage is information
only known when a payment succeeds. It therefore makes sense to split
them.
We keep legacy serialization code for migration puproses.
Fixes#481.
Prior to this commit, payments stored in the channel DB only kept a
record of the payment hash. This is a problem as the preimage is what
serves as proof of payment and a user should be able to look up this
value in the future (not just immediately after payment).
Instead of storing both the payment hash and the preimage, we store the
preimage only since the hash can be derrived from this using a SHA256.
In the RPC listpayments command, we now give the preimage in addition to
the payment hash.
This modifies the tests that deal serializing the Invoice type to limit
the creation date to seconds since Go1.9 added the concept of a
monotonic component to times which does not round trip through
MarshalBinary and UnmarshalBinary and therefore causes the tests to fail.
In particular, it modifies the creation dates in the randInvoice,
makeFakePayment, makeRandomFakePayment, and TestInvoiceWorkflow
functions.
This results in allowing TestOutgoingPaymentSerialization,
TestOutgoingPaymentWorkflow, and TestInvoiceWorkflow to pass.
This commit removes all instances of the fastsha256 library and
replaces it with the sha256 library in the standard library. This
change should see a number of performance improvements as the standard
library has highly optimized assembly instructions with use vectorized
instructions as the platform supports.
This commit modifies the new payment module within the database to
match the coding style of the rest of the package and the project as a
hole. Additionally, a few fields have been renamed, and the extra
timestamp added to the OutgoingPayment struct has been removed as
there’s already a CreationTime field within the Invoice struct that’s
embedded within the OutgoingPayment struct.
Go-fmt files. Refactored code according to the guidelines.
Enhanced payment test: add error checking
and individual context for each API call.
Add Timestamp field to payment struct.
