- fixes errors introduced in the earlier refactoring
- more variables moved to state.py
- path finding functions moved to paths.py
- remembers IPv6 network unreachable (in the future can be used to skip
IPv6 for a while)
- got rid of shared config parser and made it into a singleton
- refactored safeConfigGetBoolean as a method of the config singleton
- refactored safeConfigGet as a method of the config singleton
- moved softwareVersion from shared.py into version.py
- moved some global variables from shared.py into state.py
- moved some protocol-specific functions from shared.py into protocol.py
Fixes#118
- changed almost all "print" into logger
- threads have nicer names
- logger can have configuration in "logger.dat" in the same directory as
"keys.dat", and the logger will pick the one named "default" to replace
the "console" and "file" that are in PyBitmessage otherwise
Example file for logging to syslog:
[loggers]
keys = root,syslog
[logger_root]
level=NOTSET
handlers=syslog
[logger_syslog]
level=DEBUG
handlers=syslog
qualname=default
[handlers]
keys = syslog
[handler_syslog]
class = handlers.SysLogHandler
formatter = syslog
level = DEBUG
args=(('localhost', handlers.SYSLOG_UDP_PORT),
handlers.SysLogHandler.LOG_LOCAL7)
[formatters]
keys = syslog
[formatter_syslog]
format=%(asctime)s %(threadName)s %(filename)s@%(lineno)d %(message)s
datefmt=%b %d %H:%M:%S
It will now listen on an IPv6 socket if possible or fall back to IPv4
if that doesn't work. It will no longer filter out all IPv6 addresses
and instead it will only filter out those that point to the local
network.
It looks like the DNS bootstrapping should just automatically work
because getaddrinfo already returns IPv6 addresses from the AAAA
record.
In order to convert from the ASCII representation of IPv6 addresses
and back we need inet_ntop and inet_pton. Python 2 doesn't currently
provide these for Windows so instead this patch provides a hot patch
to the socket module which wraps WSAStringToAddress and
WSAAddressToString using ctypes.
Until now many parts of the code assumed that IP addresses are
unique for peers. However, more than one Bitmessage instance might
be running with a given IP address due to multi-user systems or
firewalls.
