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.
Only commit in the docs and error messages to what we _really_ know.
In an attempt to reduce the likelyhood of the code going stale only
commit to what is guaranteed - that we have an error from a module.
This does arguably reduce the amount of context around the error.
Error types conventionally include `Error` as a suffix.
Rename `NonStandardSighashType` to `NonStandardSighashTypeError`.
While we are at it make the inner type private to the crate, there is no
need to leak the inner values type.
As part of an ongoing effort to make our error types stable and useful
add a stand set of derives to all error types in the library.
`#[derive(Debug, Clone, PartialEq, Eq)]`
Add `Copy` if possible and the error type does not include
`#[non_exhaustive]`.
If an error type includes `io::Error` it only gets `#[derive(Debug)]`.
We have just released the `hex-conservative` crate, we can now use it.
Do the following:
- Depend on `hex-conservative` in `bitcoin` and `hashes`
- Re-export `hex-conservative` as `hex` from both crate roots.
- Remove all the old hex code from `hashes`
- Fix all the import statements (makes up the bulk of the lines changed
in this patch)
Currently we have a mishmash of attribution lines accompanying the SPDX
identifier. These lines are basically meaningless because:
- The date is often wrong
- The original author attributed is not the only contributor to a file
- The term "rust bitcoin developers" is basically just noise
Just remove all the attribution lines and be done with it. While we are
at it add an SPDX line to the few files missing it, whether this license
nonsense is even needed is left as an argument for another day.

We can use `package` to rename `bitcoin_hashes` to `hashes` and `bitcoin_internals` to `internals`. This makes imports more terse with no loss of meaning.

If we use `#![cfg_attr(docsrs, feature(doc_auto_cfg))]` instead of
`#![cfg_attr(docsrs, feature(doc_cfg))]` we no longer need to manually
mark types with `#[cfg_attr(docsrs, doc(cfg(feature = "std")))]`.
Sweeeeeet.
We can use `package` to rename `bitcoin_hashes` to `hashes` and
`bitcoin_internals` to `internals`. This makes imports more terse with
no loss of meaning.
`Signature` only supported serialization into `Vec` which required a
heap allocation as well as prevented statically proving maximum length.
Adding a specialized type that holds a byte array and size solves this.
The solution is very similar to `secp256k1::ecdsa::SerializedSignature`.
The difference is that serialized signature in this crate contains
sighash bytes flag while in `secp256k1` it doesn't.
We use `internals::hex::display::DisplayHex` in many places, we can
improve ergonomics of the `internals` crate by re-exporting it from the
`prelude` module.
The `ToHex` trait was replaced by either simple `Display`/`LowerHex`
where appropriate or `DisplayHex` from `bitcoin_internals` which is
faster.
This change replaces the usages and removes the trait.
Done as part of flattening util.
Currently in `util` module we have a bunch of modules that provide
cryptography related functionality.
Create a `crypto` module and move into it the following:
- ecdsa
- schnorr
- key
To improve uniformity and ergonomics, do the following re-names while we
are at it:
- EcdsaSig -> ecdsa::Signature
- SchnorrSig -> schnorr::Signature
- EcdsaSigError -> ecdsa::Error
- SchnorrSigError -> schnorr::Error
- InvalidSchnorrSigSize -> InvalidSignatureSize (this is an error enum variant)
