No longer do our `mainnet` and `testnet` buttons set specific RPC urls. Now they set `provider.type`, which gets interpreted with code.
Currently the provider types of `mainnet` and `testnet` point to our new scalable backends, but these could be re-interpreted to use any other provider, be it etherscan, peer to peer, or otherwise.
Makes it easier for us to upgrade our infrastructure without incorporating migration logic into the program.
Calls to `eth.sign` are now transiently persisted in memory, and displayed in a chronological stack with pending transactions (which are still persisted to disk).
This allows the user a method to sign/cancel transactions even if they miss the Chrome notification.
Improved a lot of the view routing, to avoid cases where routes would show an empty account view, or transition to the accounts list when it shouldn't.
Broke the transaction approval view into a couple components so messages and transactions could have their own templates.
When starting up, we now create a `web3` inside the `background.js` process, which we pass to the `idStore` and ask for the current `network`.
We include the `network` on `app.metamask.network` in the state object.
We re-request the network when changing provider.
We filter the transaction list for transactions that match the current network.
When selecting an account, we now persist the selection to the `configManager`, so the selection can be restored when re-unlocking Metamask.
Also found the bug where `rawtestrpc` was still being used as a default, and fixed it!
- When unlocking, the first account is now selected by default and displayed as the main view.
- There is now a "CHANGE ACCT" button on the detail view to show the accounts list.
- Clicking an account from the accounts list now navigates to the detail view and selects that account.
- Config/Info screen "back" buttons now fire a new action, `GO_HOME`, which is configured to navigate to the accountDetail view, putting that logic in one place.
- When locking and unlocking again, the first account is always displayed, eventually we should persist the selection.
This migration will move users who have their clients configured to point at `rawtestrpc.metamask.io` to point at our new test-net RPC, `testrpc.metamask.io`.
Transactions are now stored, and are never deleted, they only have their status updated.
We can add deleting later if we'd like.
I've hacked on emitting the new unconfirmedTx key to the UI in the format it received before, I want Aaron's opinion on where I should actually do that.
This boolean is computed from these requirements:
- The user is on the testnet rpc
- The account is index 0
The UI is responsible for checking the account balancing and indicating if fauceting is indeed pending or not.
New version of provider-engine includes etherscan-subprovider features required to let Metamask use it.
Hard coded the new version of `web3-provider-engine` even though it is not live on `npm` yet, because it is a dependency of this branch.
I'll deploy to the Chrome store but not merge on Github until that provider-engine is published, because it could break others' dev environments.
Abstract all configuration data into a singleton called `configManager`, who is responsible for reading and writing to the persisted storage (localStorage, in our case).
Uses my new module [pojo-migrator](https://www.npmjs.com/package/pojo-migrator), and wraps it with the `ConfigManager` class, which we can hang any state setting or getting methods we need.
By keeping all the persisted state in one place, we can stabilize its outward-facing API, making the interactions increasingly atomic, which will allow us to add features that require restructuring the persisted data in the long term without having to rewrite UI or even `background.js` code.
All the restructuring and data-type management is kept in one neat little place.
This should make it very easy to add new configuration options like user-configured providers, per-domain vaults, and more!
I know this doesn't seem like a big user-facing feature, but we have a big laundry list of features that I think this will really help streamline.
Also added the hdPath that Christian had told me to our calls to the LightWallet, but this does not seem to have made us generate the same accounts as `testrpc` yet.
Added initial test just to verify we can recover the accounts we generate in this way.
Still need to add compliance test to make sure this interoperates with testrpc's new mnemonic flag.
In order to persist the seed word page until the user clicks the confirmation button, we need to store the seed words in localStorage.
To simplify this process I've also reorganized some of the account manager code, broken up one large function into many smaller functions, and created a new class for the IdMgmt object.
Again, sorry such a big refactor in one commit, but I really had to break it down to work through it.
Having the ui in one project but the static resources in this one is a good sign that either:
- We should have the UI in this project.
- We should find a way to keep the static resources in the UI repo.
