- minor refactoring, made it into singleton instead of a shared global
variable. This makes it a little bit cleaner and moves the class into
a separate file
- removed duplicate inventory locking
- renamed singleton.py to singleinstance.py (this is the code that
ensures only one instance of PyBitmessage runs at the same time)
- you can now use SMTP to send messages
- uses bmaddr.lan domain
- runs on 127.0.0.8425 if you set "smtpd" to True
- mandatory authentication with smtpdusername and smtpdpassword
- handles old dialog versions better if using curses
- can spawn SMTP delivery thread if configured (only when in daemon
mode)
- daemonized mode now works more like it's properly supposed to on unix
(double fork etc). You may have to adjust your init scripts, when
when using upstart for example you should now use "expect daemon"
- daemon mode now cleanly shuts down when TERM/INT signal is received
We already do this for the SIGINT kill signal. The change allows us to do a clean
shutdown of PyBitmessage when its process has been separated from the terminal.
+ Add stderr capturing
+ Add identities and network status tabs
+ Add dialogs to configure identities
+ Add color pair definitions
+ Add the '-c' flag to use the curses interface
* Reorganize imports
* Switch logger to file_only mode when running with curses
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.
