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 `debug_from_display`
macro and just write the code.
This is an API breaking change to `internals` but an internal change
only to any of the _real_ crates.
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.
The `Params` struct is currently defined in the `consensus` module which
has become a collection of orthogonal consensus-ish things. We would
like to put things in more descriptive places.
The `Params` struct defines constants that are network specific so it
makes sense to put it in the `network` module. As soft proof of this
argument note in this patch how often the `Params` type is imported
along with the `Network` type.
API break:
The type is no longer available at `bitcoin::consensus::Params` but
rather is re-exported at `bitcoin::network::Params`.
Wildcards have been replaced with what is actually used.
In a couple of cases an additional use statement was added to the test
module to import `DisplayHex` which is only used in test, but
previously imported with the wildcard at the top.
76826313a1 generate Network <-> Magic From and TryFrom with a macro (Antoni Spaanderman)
Pull request description:
Removes possible errors when a network is added to the enum (expressed with the comment `// Note: new network entries must explicitly be matched in 'try_from' below.`)

Currently `Magic` has per network consts but no way to dynamically get
the magic bytes for a network. Note also that we are currently trying to
reduce the usage of `Network` in the public API.
Add a public constructor to the `Magic` type that accepts a `Params`
parameter to determine the network to use.
Our decoding code reads bytes in very small chunks. Which is not
efficient when dealing with the OS where the cost of a context switch is
significant. People could already buffer the data but it's easy to
forget it by accident.
This change requires the new `io::BufRead` trait instead of `io::Read`
in all bounds.
Code such as `Transaction::consensus_decode(&mut File::open(foo))` will
break after this is applied, uncovering the inefficiency.
This was originally Kix's work, done before we had the `io` crate.
Changes to `bitcoin` were originally his, any new mistakes are my own.
Changes to `io` are mine.

There is no advantage in having `io::Read` as opposed to `Read` and
importing the trait. It is surprising that we do so.
Remove `io::` path from `io::Read` and `io::Write`. Some docs keep the
path, leave them as is. Add import `use io::{Read, Write}`.
Refactor only, no logic changes.
Improve the public exports in two ways:
1. Inline re-exports into the docs of the module that re-exports them.
2. Separate public and private use statements
Recently we discussed a way to separate the public and private import
statements to make the code more clear and prevent `rustfmt` joining
them all together.
Separate public exports using a code block and `#[rustfmt::skip]`. Has
the nice advantage of reducing the number of `#[doc(inline)]` attributes
also.
1. Modules first, as they are part of the project's structure.
2. Private imports
3. Public re-exports (using `rustfmt::skip` to prevent merge)
Use the format
```rust
mod xyz;
mod abc;
use ...;
pub use {
...,
};
```
This patch introduces changes to the rendered HTML docs.
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.
We would like the codebase to be optimized for readability not ease of
development, as such code that is write-once-read-many should not use
macros.
Currently we use the `impl_std_error` macro to implement
`std::error::Error` for struct error types. This makes the code harder
to read at a glance because one has to think what the macro does.
Remove the `impl_std_error` macro and write the code explicitly.
The `ServiceFlags` type is used by the p2p layer. It can live in the
`mod.rs` file of the `p2p` module. Done in preparation for removing the
`p2p::constants` module.
This is a straight code move, the `ServiceFlags` replaces the
current re-export.
The `PROTOCOL_VERSION` const is a p2p layer constant. It can live in the
`mod.rs` file of the `p2p` module.
This is a straight code move, the `PROTOCOL_VERSION` replaces the
current re-export.
The `network` module deals with data types and logic related to
internetworking bitcoind nodes, this is commonly referred to as the p2p
layer.
Rename the `network` module to `p2p` and fix all the paths.
