Param getters were redone to return errors because otherwise bad FuncParam
values could lead to panic. FuncParam itself might be not the most elegant
solution, but it works good enough for now.
This PR does 3 things:
adds array parameter unmarshalling
extend Param with convenient methods
refactor tests into using tables to make it easier add new tests
(part of #347 solution)
There is a difference in interpretation of what a block count is. neo-go nodes
currently respond to this request with the latest block number which is the
same number that neoscan.io shows. However, C# nodes deliberately do add one
to this number when answering to the getblockcount request to account for the
genesis block number 0.
This patch makes us consistent with C# nodes wrt to getblockcount behaviour.
This one enables our RPC to be called from the browser if there is a
need. It's insecure and not standards-compliant, thus this behaviour is
configurable is not enabled by default. It makes our node with this workaround
enabled compatible with neo-mon monitoring.
Originally debugged by @anatoly-bogatyrev in #464.
Extend Blockchainer with one more method to spawn a VM for test runs and use
it to run scripts. Gas consumption is not counted or limited in any way at the
moment (see #424).
This adds the following verifications:
* merkleroot check
* index check
* timestamp check
* witnesses verification
VerifyWitnesses is also renamed to verifyTxWitnesses here to not confuse it
with verifyBlockWitnesse and to hide it from external access (no users at the
moment).
We want to get a full block, so it has to have transactions
inside. Unfortunately our tests were used to this wrong behavior and utilized
completely bogus transactions without data that couldn't be persisted, so fix
that also.
Commit 578ac414d4 was wrong in that it saved
only a part of the block, so depending on how you use blockchain, you may
still see that the block was not really processed properly. To really fix it
this commit introduces intermediate storage layer in form of memStore, which
actually is a MemoryStore that supports full Store API (thus easily fitting
into the existing code) and one extension that allows it to flush its data to
some other Store.
It also changes AddBlock() semantics in that it only accepts now successive
blocks, but when it does it guarantees that they're properly added into the
Blockchain and can be referred to in any way. Pending block queing is now
moved into the server (see 8c0c055ac657813fe3ed10257bce199e9527d5ed).
So the only thing done with persist() now is just a move from memStore to
Store which probably should've always been the case (notice also that
previously headers and some other metadata was written into the Store
bypassing caching/batching mechanism thus leading to some inefficiency).
This changes the Blockchain to also return unpersisted (theoretically, verified
in the AddBlock!) blocks and transactions, making Add/Get interfaces
symmetrical. It allows to turn Persist into internal method again and makes it
possible to enable transaction check in GetBlock(), thus fixing #366.
earlier we had an issue with failing test in #353 and other one #305.
Reworked these test to have in-memory database. This led to multiple
changes: made some functions like Hash and Persist public(otherwise
it's not possible to control state of the blockchain); removed
unit_tests storage package which was used mainly for leveldb in unit
tests.
I see these tests not really good since they look like e2e tests and
as for me should be run in separate step against dockerized env or
in case we want to check rpc handler we might want to rework it in order
to have interface for proper unit tests.
As for me this patchset at least makes as safe with not removing totally
previous tests and at the same time CircleCI will be happy now.
The logic here is that we'll have all binary encoding/decoding done via our io
package, which simplifies error handling. This functionality doesn't belong to
util, so it's moved.
This also expands BufBinWriter with Reset() method to fit the needs of core
package.
