There is no security reason why pruning should be enabled and therefore it
surprises users. Turning on pruning in the first place was simply a mistake.
- `waitfornewblock` was previously not included in the public RPC
whitelist because it's reserved for testing and marked as hidden
in bitcoind.
- electrs changed its verbosity settings. `-vv` is now the best choice
for normal usage.
- bitcoind option `dataDirReadableByGroup` is now unused.
Because it can be valuable for other use cases and implementing
it is intricate, we're keeping it for now.
- test: keep `nc` connection open because otherwise the electrs
RPC server would now close the connection before sending a response.
- `discover` is automatically disabled by bitcoind because we're
setting `externalip` via the `nix-bitcoin.onionServices` mechanism
- `bech32` is bitcoind's default addresstype
NixOS option `security.hideProcessInformation` for globally restricting
access to /proc has been removed.
Use per-service restrictions via 'ProtectProc' instead.
Rename
`nix-bitcoin.security.hideProcessInformation` to
`nix-bitcoin.security.dbusHideProcessInformation`
because this option now only implements the dbus restriction.
- enable usage outside of secure-node.nix
- use json as the output format
- show ports
- also show local addresses, which is particularly useful when
netns-isolation is enabled
- only show enabled services
Move 'enforceTor' and onion-service definitions from secure-node.nix.
Use the onionServices module to define onion services.
Onion services now automatically work for services that bind to an INADDR_ANY (`0.0.0.0`) address.
- Remove redundant option mainchainrpchost.
This option is already provided by bitcoind.
- Set a working default for rpcport and rpcuser.
Enables use without secure-node.
Going without the conditionals (like in secure-node.nix) adds
readability and doesn't reduce evaluation performance (in fact, it
even slightly improves performance due to implementation details
of mkIf).
To avoid errors, remove use of disabled services in secure-node.nix and
nix-bitcoin-webindex.nix.
Previously, systemd-status was broken for all users except root.
Use a 'default' deny policy, which is overridden for group 'proc'.
Add operator to group 'proc'.
Also, remove redundant XML boilerplate.
