This involves modifying the log4j2.properties file on node startup to fix an incompatibility with ${dirname:-}. Thanks to AlphaX Projects for tracking down this incompatibility.
This allows an entire registered name to be preauthorized, therefore allowing for instance a website to automatically request other resources from the same author, such as videos.
This delegates the task to the browser rather than doing it in java. It should also catch a few remaining types of links that we had missed - e.g. ones that originate from within js files.
This avoids duplicate entries from the same host/ip with differing ports. This can occur due to some requests using ephemeral port numbers. Ideally we would filter these out altogether, but this at least acts as a safety net to prevent a very cluttered db and associated "broadcast storm". The main tradeoff here is that multiple nodes on the same IP address will be recorded as a single entry. This doesn't seem like it will be a major limitation, because one of them will remain available.
Since some files won't have any mirrors, this prevents the cleanup manager from deleting the only copy in existence when freeing up space. This feature can be disabled by setting "originalCopyIndicatorFileEnabled": false in settings.json (or by deleting the ".original" files). The trade off is that the only copy in existence could be deleted if space gets low.
This will also allow for better reporting of own vs third party files in the local UI (not yet implemented).
This allows for consistent messaging about each status to be shown in different parts of the system. Previously these strings were hardcoded in the loading screen html so were inaccessible elsewhere.
Logs can be reinstated by adding these lines to log4j2.properties:
logger.arbitrary.name = org.qortal.arbitrary
logger.arbitrary.level = debug
logger.arbitrarycontroller.name = org.qortal.controller.arbitrary
logger.arbitrarycontroller.level = debug
This is the start of a refactor to use ArbitraryDataResource objects rather than passing around separate resourceId, service and identifier, or other duplicate objects. Most of this will need to be done after the initial release due to time constraints.
The simplest solution was to only include a newline at the end of the patch file if the source file ended with a newline. This is used to inform the merge code as to whether to add the newline to the end of the resulting file. Without this, the checksums do not match (and therefore previously the complete file would have been included as a result).
Several parts of the code request resources to be loaded/built, and these separate threads were tripping over each other and causing build failures. This has been avoided by making sure the resource isn't already building before requesting it.
Requesting a resource with the identifier "default" now maps to a blank string. This allows the /arbitrary/{service}/{name}/{identifier} endpoints to be used for default resources too, as they previously didn't support a blank string as the third parameter.
The main differences are:
- Compute nonce instead of specifying a transaction fee
- Add blank/empty values for all the additional fields, as they are unused for auto updates
