Rust macros, while at times useful, are a maintenance nightmare. And
we have been bitten by calling macros from other crates multiple times
in the past.
In a push to just use less macros remove the usage of the
`impl_from_infallible` macro in the bitcoin, units, and internals crates
and just write the code.
There is a range of different wordings used in the docs of constructor
type functions.
Change all to start with `Constructs a new` or `Constructs an empty`.
In functions that act like constructors there is a mixture of the usage
of `creates` and `constructs`.
Replace all occurrences of `creates` with `constructs` in the first line
of docs of constructor like functions.
In preparation to move script types to `primitives` we replace impl
block with extension traits by replacing the temporary modules with
`define_extension_trait`.
In the `script` module we currently import `script` types using the
fully qualified path, as recently discussed code is easier to maintain
if we use `super` when `super != crate`.
Internal change only, no external changes.
the `blockdata` directory is code organisation thing, all the
types/modules are re-exported from other places. In preparation for, and
to make easier, the `primitives` crate smashing work - remove all
explicit usage of `blockdata`.
Note that the few instances remain as they seem required e.g.,
`pub(in crate::blockdata::script)`
Refactor only, no logic changes.
There are two limits that the Bitcoin network enforces in regard to
hashing scripts
- For P2SH the redeem script must be less than 520 bytes
- For P2WSH the witness script must be less than 10,000 bytes
Currently we are only enforcing the p2sh limit when creating an address
with `Address::p2sh`.
There are various ways to create addresses from script hashes and if
users manually hash a script then use the `ScriptHash` (or
`WScritpHash`) our APIs assume the script that was hashed is valid. This
means there is the potential for users to get burned by creating
addresses that cannot be spent, something we would like to avoid.
- Add fallible constructors to `ScriptHash` and `WScriptHash`
- Add `TryFrom` impls as well to both types
- Remove the `From` impls

We should pass `Copy` types by value not by reference. Pass the key types by value.

Tree-SHA512: 18afab537edf4ade4dc1c1e5992e50060b8935531f1e3cbe1d3b94b2fcb87aafa39947f342e0e762835bda3b4091dd35b3b74ea79f4dbb3b21660ffd21d1f82e
Currently we have a trait `Hash` that is required for `Hmac`, `Hkdf`,
and other use cases. However, it is unegonomic for users who just want
to do a simple hash to have to import the trait.
Add inherent functions to all hash types including those created with
the new wrapper type macros.
This patch introduces some duplicate code but we are trying to make
progress in the hashes API re-write. We can come back and de-dublicate
later.
Includes making `to_byte_array`,`from_byte_array`, `as_byte_array`, and
`all_zeros` const where easily possible.
P2WPKH requires keys to be compressed which introduces error handling
even in cases when it's statically known that a key is compressed. To
avoid it, this change introduces `CompressedPublicKey` which is similar
to `PublicKey` except it's statically known to be compressed.
This also changes relevant code to use `CompressedPublicKey` instead of
`PublicKey`.
An `AddressInner` struct is created when parsing address strings however
address strings do not map 1:1 to `Network` because signet and testnet
use the same bech32 prefix "tb".
We can fix this by inlining the `Payload` variants into `AddressInner`
and adding prefix enums for legacy addresses and a `KnownHrp` for bech32
addresses.
Also enables removing the `AddressEncoding` struct as we can display the
`AddressInner` struct directly. (The `Display` impl is on `AddressInner`
and not directly on address to ignore the `NetworkValidation` wrapper,
may be able to be simplified still further.)
On our way to v1.0.0 we are defining a standard for our error types,
this includes:
- Uses the following derives (unless not possible, usually because of `io::Error`)
`#[derive(Debug, Clone, PartialEq, Eq)]`
- Has `non_exhaustive` unless we really know we can commit to not adding
anything.
Furthermore, we are trying to make the codebase easy to read. Error code
is write-once-read-many (well it should be) so if we make all the error
code super uniform the users can flick to an error and quickly see what
it includes. In an effort to achieve this I have made up a style and
over recent times have change much of the error code to that new style,
this PR audits _all_ error types in the code base and enforces the
style, specifically:
- Is layed out: definition, [impl block], Display impl, error::Error impl, From impls
- `error::Error` impl matches on enum even if it returns `None` for all variants
- Display/Error impls import enum variants locally
- match uses *self and `ref e`
- error::Error variants that return `Some` come first, `None` after
Re: non_exhaustive
To make dev and review easier I have added `non_exhaustive` to _every_
error type. We can then remove it error by error as we see fit. This is
because it takes a bit of thinking to do and review where as this patch
should not take much brain power to review.
Add rustdocs to `WitnessProgram` commenting on why we carry the witness
version number around with the witness program. This is mainly a dev
comment but it helps document the invariants so make it a rustdoc
comment.
From BIP 141:
> A scriptPubKey (or redeemScript as defined in BIP16/P2SH) that
> consists of a 1-byte push opcode (for 0 to 16) followed by a data push
> between 2 and 40 bytes gets a new special meaning. The value of the
> first push is called the "version byte". The following byte vector
> pushed is called the "witness program".
`WitnessVersion` and `WitnessProgram` are scriptPubkey concerns and
scriptPubkey is basically synonymous with address so in one way it makes
sense that these types are in `address` however we are in the process of
overhauling the `Address` (and `AddressInner`) types so lets move the
witness stuff to `script` and put it in individual sub-modules.
This move helps simplify the address error type also.
Note please, there are a bunch of formatting changes in here in the
error type that I cannot explain and could not remove.
