In this commit, we introduce a migration for the message store
sub-bucket that will migrate all keys within it to a new key format.
This new key format is composed of the peer's public key, followed by
the short channel ID, followed by the message type. This migration is
needed in order to provide backwards-compatibility with messages that
were previously stored before the introduction of the new key format.
This commit performs a slight refactoring of the internals (and API) of
the [Fetch|Put]Meta methods. The changes are rather minor and simply
eliminate the conditional branching structure with usage of an internal
function. This new form is much easier to follow.
This commit modifies the composition of the boltdb pointer within the
DB struct to use embedding.
The rationale for this change is that the daemon may soon store some
semi-transient items within the database which requires us to expose
the boltdb’s transaction API. The logic for serialization of this data
will likely lie outside of the channeldb package as the items that may
be stored in the future will be specific to the current sub-systems
within the daemon and not generic channel related data.
This commit unexports the SyncVerions PR, in favor of making it private
and moving it into the .Open() method. With this change, callers no
longer need worry about ensuring the database version is up to sync
before usage, as it will happen automatically once the database is
opened.
This commit also unexports some additional variables within the package
that don’t need be consumed by the public, and exports the
DbVersionNumber attribute on the meta struct. Finally some minor
formatting fixes have neen carried out to ensure the new code more
closely matches the style of the rest of the codebase.
In this commit the upgrade mechanism for database was added which makes he current schema rigid and upgradeable. Additional bucket 'metaBucket' was added which stores
key that house meta-data related to the current/version state of the database. 'createChannelDB' was modified to create this new bucket+key during initializing. Also
backup logic was added which makes a complete copy of the current database during migration process and restore the previous version of database if migration failed.
