2018-02-05Clarify help messages for path args to mention datadir prefixJames O'Beirne
Change `-conf`'s and others' help messages to indicate that relative path values will be prefixed by the datadir path. This behavior is confusing when attempting to specify a configuration file in the current directory with `-conf=bitcoin.conf`, but loading the `bitcoin.conf` file in ~/.bitcoin datadir.

2017-11-17cli: Reject arguments to -getinfoWladimir J. van der Laan
Currently it's possible to accidentally type e.g. bitcoin-cli -getinfo getbalance and get an answer which can be confusing; the trialing arguments are just ignored. To avoid this, throw an error if the user provides arguments to `-getinfo`.

2017-09-27rpc: Handle `getinfo` locally in bitcoin-cli w/ `-getinfo`Wladimir J. van der Laan
This adds the infrastructure `BaseRequestHandler` class that takes care of converting bitcoin-cli arguments into a JSON-RPC request object, and converting the reply into a JSON object that can be shown as result. This is subsequently used to handle the `-getinfo` option, which sends a JSON-RPC batch request to the RPC server with `["getnetworkinfo", "getblockchaininfo", "getwalletinfo"]`, and after reply combines the result into what looks like a `getinfo` result. There have been some requests for a client-side `getinfo` and this is my PoC of how to do it. If this is considered a good idea some of the logic could be moved up to rpcclient.cpp and used in the GUI console as well. Extra-Author: Andrew Chow <achow101@gmail.com>

2017-07-26Fix misleading "Method not found" multiwallet errorsRussell Yanofsky
Raise RPC_WALLET_NOT_SPECIFIED instead of RPC_METHOD_NOT_FOUND when a required wallet filename was not specified in an RPC call. Also raise more specific RPC_WALLET_NOT_FOUND error instead of RPC_INVALID_PARAMETER in case an invalid wallet was specified, for consistency.

2016-12-02bitcoin-cli: Make error message less confusingWladimir J. van der Laan
Sorry for the churn on this, but the current message (introduced in #9073) isn't acceptable: $ src/bitcoin-cli getinfo rpc: couldn't connect to server (make sure server is running and you are connecting to the correct RPC port: -1 unknown) Putting the error code after the words "RPC port" made me wonder whether there was a port configuration issue. This changes it to: $ src/bitcoin-cli getinfo error: couldn't connect to server: unknown (code -1) (make sure server is running and you are connecting to the correct RPC port)

2015-09-21rpc: Split option -rpctimeout into -rpcservertimeout and -rpcclienttimeoutWladimir J. van der Laan
The two timeouts for the server and client, are essentially different: - In the case of the server it should be a lower value to avoid clients clogging up connection slots - In the case of the client it should be a high value to accomedate slow responses from the server, for example for slow queries or when the lock is contended Split the options into `-rpcservertimeout` and `-rpcclienttimeout` with respective defaults of 30 and 900.
