LiteMode disables Darksend/Masternodes/InstantX for clients
who want speed and don't need access to these features. UI
for Darksend is also hidden while in this mode.
More info regarding KeePass: http://keepass.info/
KeePass integration will use KeePassHttp (https://github.com/pfn/keepasshttp/) to facilitate communications between the client and KeePass. KeePassHttp is a plugin for KeePass 2.x and provides a secure means of exposing KeePass entries via HTTP for clients to consume.
The implementation is dependent on the following:
- crypter.h for AES encryption helper functions.
- rpcprotocol.h for handling RPC communications. Could only be used partially however due some static values in the code.
- OpenSSL for base64 encoding. regular util.h libraries were not used for base64 encoding/decoding since they do not use secure allocation.
- JSON Spirit for reading / writing RPC communications
The following changes were made:
- Added CLI options in help
- Added RPC commands: keepass <genkey|init|setpassphrase>
- Added keepass.h and keepass.cpp which hold the integration routines
- Modified rpcwallet.cpp to support RPC commands
The following new options are available for darkcoind and darkcoin-qt:
-keepass Use KeePass 2 integration using KeePassHttp plugin (default: 0)
-keepassport=<port> Connect to KeePassHttp on port <port> (default: 19455)
-keepasskey=<key> KeePassHttp key for AES encrypted communication with KeePass
-keepassid=<name> KeePassHttp id for the established association
-keepassname=<name> Name to construct url for KeePass entry that stores the wallet passphrase
The following rpc commands are available:
- keepass genkey: generates a base64 encoded 256 bit AES key that can be used for the communication with KeePassHttp. Only necessary for manual configuration. Use init for automatic configuration.
- keepass init: sets up the association between darkcoind and keepass by generating an AES key and sending an association message to KeePassHttp. This will trigger KeePass to ask for an Id for the association. Returns the association and the base64 encoded string for the AES key.
- keepass setpassphrase <passphrase>: updates the passphrase in KeePassHttp to a new value. This should match the passphrase you intend to use for the wallet. Please note that the standard RPC commands walletpassphrasechange and the wallet encrption from the QT GUI already send the updates to KeePassHttp, so this is only necessary for manual manipulation of the password.
Sample initialization flow from darkcoin-qt console (this needs to be done only once to set up the association):
- Have KeePass running with an open database
- Start darkcoin-qt
- Open console
- type: "keepass init" in darkcoin-qt console
- (keepass pops up and asks for an association id, fill that in). Example: mydrkwallet
- response: Association successful. Id: mydrkwalletdarkcoin - Key: AgQkcs6cI7v9tlSYKjG/+s8wJrGALHl3jLosJpPLzUE=
- Edit darkcoin.conf and fill in these values
keepass=1
keepasskey=AgQkcs6cI7v9tlSYKjG/+s8wJrGALHl3jLosJpPLzUE=
keepassid=mydrkwallet
keepassname=testwallet
- Restart darkcoin-qt
At this point, the association is made. The next action depends on your particular situation:
- current wallet is not yet encrypted. Encrypting the wallet will trigger the integration and stores the password in KeePass (Under the 'KeePassHttp Passwords' group, named after keepassname.
- current wallet is already encrypted: use "keepass setpassphrase <passphrase>" to store the passphrase in KeePass.
At this point, the passphrase is stored in KeePassHttp. When Unlocking the wallet, one can use keepass as the passphrase to trigger retrieval of the password. This works from the RPC commands as well as the GUI.
Always make a pid file, not only when `-daemon` specified.
This is useful for troubleshooting, for attaching debuggers and loggers
and such.
- Write the pid file only after the datadir lock was acquired
- Don't create or remove a pid file on WIN32, and also don't show the option
- ensures a consistent usage in header files
- also add a blank line after the copyright header where missing
- also remove orphan new-lines at the end of some files
Split up util.cpp/h into:
- string utilities (hex, base32, base64): no internal dependencies, no dependency on boost (apart from foreach)
- money utilities (parsesmoney, formatmoney)
- time utilities (gettime*, sleep, format date):
- and the rest (logging, argument parsing, config file parsing)
The latter is basically the environment and OS handling,
and is stripped of all utility functions, so we may want to
rename it to something else than util.cpp/h for clarity (Matt suggested
osinterface).
Breaks dependency of sha256.cpp on all the things pulled in by util.
- add a small wrapper in util around RAND_bytes() and replace with
GetRandBytes() in the code to log errors from calling RAND_bytes()
- remove OpenSSL header rand.h where no longer needed
bitcoin-config.h moved, but the old file is likely to still exist when
reconfiguring or switching branches. This would've caused files to not rebuild
correctly, and other strange problems.
Make the path explicit so that the old one cannot be found.
Core libs use config/bitcoin-config.h.
Libs (like crypto) which don't want access to bitcoin's headers continue
to use -Iconfig and #include bitcoin-config.h.

Make DateTimeStrFormat use boost::posix_time.
Also re-enable the util_DateTimeStrFormat tests, as they are no
longer platform specific.
