The user's local node configuration directory usually contains a copy of
examples/shell.nix.
1. Move the shell implementation from shell.nix to nix-bitcoin/helper/makeShell.nix
Because the shell is no longer defined locally in the user's config
directory, we can now ship new shell features via nix-bitcoin updates.
2. Simplify examples/nix-bitcoin-release.nix
nix-bitcoin-release.nix, as generated via `fetch-release`, now
contains a simple fetchTarball statement which can be directly imported.
This allows us to get rid of the extra `nix-bitcoin-unpacked` derivation
which adds a dependency on the user's local nixpkgs.
To keep `fetch-release` as simple as possible for easy auditing, we just
fetch and verify a `nar-hash.txt` file that is now uploaded
via `push-release.sh`.
A migration guide for updating the user's local `shell.nix` is
automatically printed when the user starts a new shell after updating
nix-bitcoin.
This is achieved by throwing an error in `generate-secrets`, which is called
on shell startup.
This commit is required to deploy the new extensible `generate-secrets`
mechanism introduced in the next commit.
- Remove openssl.cnf which includes many unused settings.
- Generate the key and cert files with a single call to openssl.
- Option `-nodes` ("no DES") disables encryption of the key file.
- Option `-addext` is used to specify `subjectAltName` settings
that were previously defined by openssl.cnf.
The key type is unchanged.
Certificate changes:
- Certificate duration is now 10 years
- Organization (subj 'O') is now 'loop' instead of 'loopd' for
lightning-loop to simplify the code.
For reference, the org. name in auto-generated loop certs is
"loop autogenerated cert".
- The certificate now includes all default x509v3 extensions.
These were previously restricted to just `subjectAltName` by openssl.cnf.
We now use the openssl defaults for simplicity.
- btcpayserver: remove unneeded trailing semicolons
- krops/get-sha256:
`tail` is unneeded because `nix-prefetch-url` just outputs a single
line containing the hash.
There's no common `nix` command argument syntax for eval'ing a nix
expression that supports both older and newer (flake support) versions of nix.
So fall back to nix-instantiate.
joinmarket-ob-watcher now makes extensive use of bitcoind because of
JoinMarket's new fidelity bond functionality. Therefore it fails on
non-synced nodes, as those in the test suite. We now test that the
service fails with the correct error, rather than asserting that it is
running.
This change is fully backwards compatible.
We continue to use the standard non-flake evaluation mode in our
examples and internal tooling until the flakes design has stabilized.
'clightning-plugins = pkgs.recurseIntoAttrs' in pkgs/default.nix is
needed by flake-utils.lib.flattenTree in flake.nix.
It transforms the packages in `clightning-plugins` to top-level packages
named like `clightning-plugins/summary`. (The flake attr `packages`
must be a non-nested attrset of derivations.)
pkgs/default.nix now explicitly specifies all its dependencies as arguments.
This is required for flake support.
Also simplify pinned.nix and python-packages by removing unused attrs.
Now that service uid, gid mappings are included in the backups, along
with the service data dirs, we can remove 'chown -R' for
clightning and liquidd data dirs.
Note that we used 'chown -R' only for these two services, while this
approach would have been relevant for all services with data dirs.
nix-bitcoin.nix is now no longer dependent on clightning.nix and lnd.nix.
Due to condition '!(config.services ? clightning)' lnd.nix still
doesn't depend on clightning.nix.
Also fix the assertion message by renaming clightning.bindPort to clightning.port.
