rpc: Register calls where they are defined #7766

laanwj · 2016-03-29T18:05:30Z

Split out registration of methods to every module, apart from 'help' and 'stop' which are implemented in rpcserver.cpp itself.

This makes it easier to add or remove RPC commands - no longer everything that includes rpcserver.h has to be rebuilt when there's a change there.
Cleans up rpc/server.h by getting rid of the huge cluttered list of function definitions.
Removes most of the bitcoin-specific code from rpcserver.cpp and .h.

Continues #7307 for the non-wallet.

Nice!
Concept ACK.

maflcko · 2016-03-29T18:18:32Z

Concept ACK. Would it make sense to get rid of the duplicate code in void Register*()?

Would it make sense to get rid of the duplicate code in void Register*()?

Maybe. I thought about it, but it's only a simple loop of four lines, sometimes factoring something so simple out to a function makes things harder to understand, not easier.
Another option would be to export a 'descriptor structure' with a name, pointer to the array, and size of the array. E.g. like Linux modules.
But simply having Register* function leaves it up to the module as to how to determine what to register (e.g. there may be optional features enabled on the command line).

jonasschnelli · 2016-03-30T09:30:14Z

IMO we should keep the array loop as it is (and not refactor with some hard-to-understand macro-like optimization).

laanwj · 2016-03-30T10:07:18Z

Could make it two lines, even, without losing any clarity:

   for (unsigned int vcidx = 0; vcidx < ARRAYLEN(commands); vcidx++)
        tableRPC.appendCommand(commands[vcidx].name, &commands[vcidx]);

(will update the one in rpcwallet as well)

Concept ACK

sipa · 2016-03-30T11:47:04Z

Concept ACK, though I wonder if it wouldn't be cleaner to pass a pointer to tableRPC to the registration commands, so the individual RPC implementations don't even need to depend on access to the global?

laanwj · 2016-03-30T11:58:11Z

pass a pointer to tableRPC to the registration commands

Awesome idea, will do that.

RPC code refactor Cherry-picked from the following upstream PRs: - bitcoin/bitcoin#7307 - bitcoin/bitcoin#7348 - bitcoin/bitcoin#7766

Includes the following changes: 1) Remove the unused threadSafe member from every CPRCCommand. (bitcoin#5711 , second commit) 2) Remove reqWallet from every CPRCCommand (bitcoin#5992 , second commit partially). 3) Move most of the wallet RPC commands registration to the rpcwallet file (bitcoin#7307 without the `EnsureWalletIsAvailable` on every RPC call --> mainly because the wallet RPC commands will only be registered if the wallet is available). to do: Move the remaining commands that were not moved from server to rpcwallet. ---------- Next step would be bitcoin#7766 (If anyone want to tackle it, feel more than welcome to tackle it).
