- Also get the branch name.
- Use rev-parse instead of describe to get a clean hash.
- Return the git hash and branch name in server_info for admin
connections.
- Include git hash and branch name on separate lines in --version.
Prior to this commit, `port_grpc` could not be added to the [server]
stanza. Instead of validating gRPC IP/Port/Protocol information in
ServerHandler, validate grpc port info in GRPCServer constructor. This
should not break backwards compatibility.
gRPC-related config info must be in a section (stanza) called
[port_gprc].
* Close#4015 - That was an alternate solution. It was decided that with
relaxed validation, it is not necessary to rename port_grpc.
* Fix#4557
Add a new RPC / WS call for `server_definitions`, which returns an
SDK-compatible `definitions.json` (binary enum definitions) generated by
the server. This enables clients/libraries to dynamically work with new
fields and features, such as ones that may become available on side
chains. Clients query `server_definitions` on a node from the network
they want to work with, and immediately know how to speak that node's
binary "language", even if new features are added to it in the future
(as long as there are no new serialized types that the software doesn't
know how to serialize/deserialize).
Example:
```js
> {"command": "server_definitions"}
< {
"result": {
"FIELDS": [
[
"Generic",
{
"isSerialized": false,
"isSigningField": false,
"isVLEncoded": false,
"nth": 0,
"type": "Unknown"
}
],
[
"Invalid",
{
"isSerialized": false,
"isSigningField": false,
"isVLEncoded": false,
"nth": -1,
"type": "Unknown"
}
],
[
"ObjectEndMarker",
{
"isSerialized": false,
"isSigningField": true,
"isVLEncoded": false,
"nth": 1,
"type": "STObject"
}
],
...
```
Close#3657

Enhance the /crawl endpoint by publishing WebSocket/RPC ports in the
server_info response. The function processing requests to the /crawl
endpoint actually calls server_info internally, so this change enables a
server to advertise its WebSocket/RPC port(s) to peers via the /crawl
endpoint. `grpc` and `peer` ports are included as well.
The new `ports` array contains objects, each containing a `port` for the
listening port (number string), and an array `protocol` listing the
supported protocol(s).
This allows crawlers to build a richer topology without needing to
port-scan nodes. For non-admin users (including peers), the info about
*admin* ports is excluded.
Also increase test coverage for RPC ServerInfo.
Fix#2837.
At this point all of the jss::* names are defined in the same
file. That file has been named JsonFields.h. That file name
has little to do with either JsonStaticStrings (which is what
jss is short for) or with jss. The file is renamed to jss.h
so the file name better reflects what the file contains.
All includes of that file are fixed. A few include order
issues are tidied up along the way.
* Can be exercised from the command line with json2
* Rewrite Env::do_rpc to call the same code as
rpc from the command line. This puts rpc
handling logic in one place.
Add envconfig test helper for manipulating Env config via
callables. Create new common modifiers for non-admin config,
validator config and one for using different server port values.
Instead of specifying a static list of trusted validators in the config
or validators file, the configuration can now include trusted validator
list publisher keys.
The trusted validator list and quorum are now reset each consensus
round using the latest validator lists and the list of recent
validations seen. The minimum validation quorum is now only
configurable via the command line.
