2015-07-13rpc: Implement random-cookie based authenticationWladimir J. van der Laan
When no `-rpcpassword` is specified, use a special 'cookie' file for authentication. This file is generated with random content when the daemon starts, and deleted when it exits. Read access to this file controls who can access through RPC. By default this file is stored in the data directory but it be overriden with `-rpccookiefile`. This is similar to Tor CookieAuthentication: see https://www.torproject.org/docs/tor-manual.html.en Alternative to #6258. Like that pull, this allows running bitcoind without any manual configuration. However, daemons should ideally never write to their configuration files, so I prefer this solution.

- I saw this on http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/try_catch and thought it would be a good idea - also unify used format to better be able to search for exception uses in our codebase
2014-11-26[REST] give an appropriate response in warmup phaseJonas Schnelli

2014-11-04Add "warmup mode" for RPC server.Daniel Kraft
Start the RPC server before doing all the (expensive) startup initialisations like loading the block index. Until the node is ready, return all calls immediately with a new error signalling "in warmup" with an appropriate status message (similar to the init message). This is useful for RPC clients to know that the server is there (e. g., they don't have to start it) but not yet available. It is used in Namecoin and Huntercoin already for some time, and there exists a UI hooked onto the RPC interface that actively uses this to its advantage.

2014-08-28add missing header end commentsPhilip Kaufmann
- 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
2014-08-06Remove size limit in RPC client, keep it in serverWladimir J. van der Laan
The size limit makes a lot of sense for the server, as it never has to accept very large data. The client, however, can request arbitrary amounts of data with `listtransactions` on a large wallet. Fixes #4604.
2014-08-06Avoid a copy in RPC outputWladimir J. van der Laan
Split up HTTPReply into HTTPReply and HTTPReplyHeader, so that the message data can be streamed directly. Also removes a c_str(), which would have prevented binary output with NUL characters in it.
2014-06-28fix RPC error replieskazcw
After pull #4288, RPC messages indicating errors have a Content-Length unrelated to their actual contents, rendering bitcoin-cli and curl unable to decode the reply. This patch sets the Content-Length field based on the actual content returned. Additionally, pull #4288 clobbered the error descriptions provided in ErrorReply, which bitcoin-cli relies upon; this patch moves #4288 http-error descriptions to an HTTPError method, allowing HTTPReply to pass content on unchanged.
2014-06-27Move AcceptedConnection class to rpcserver.h.Jeff Garzik
Also, add parens to HTTPReply() to assist readability.
2014-06-26RPC cleanup: Improve HTTP server repliesJeff Garzik
1) support varying content types 2) support only sending the header 3) properly deliver error message as content, if HTTP error 4) move AcceptedConnection class to header, for wider use
2014-05-13Support IPv6 lookup in bitcoin-cli even when IPv6 only bound on localhostWladimir J. van der Laan
First query in the current way (intelligently determining which network has a non-localhost interface). If this does not succeed, try plain lookup. Needed for testing. Fixes #1827 by always allowing IPv6 to be used.

2014-01-17qt: allow `walletpassphrase` in debug console without -serverWladimir J. van der Laan
Currently it is only possible to use `walletpassphrase` to unlock the wallet when bitcoin is started in server mode. Almost everything that manipulates the wallet in the RPC console needs the wallet to be unlocked and is thus unusable without -server. This is pretty unintuitive to me, and I'm sure it's even more confusing to users. Solve this with a very minimal change: by making the GUI start a dummy RPC thread just to handle timeouts.
2013-11-27Split up bitcoinrpc (code movement only)Wladimir J. van der Laan
Split bitcoinrpc up into - rpcserver: bitcoind RPC server - rpcclient: bitcoin-cli RPC client - rpcprotocol: shared common HTTP/JSON-RPC protocol code One step towards making bitcoin-cli independent from the rest of the code, and thus a smaller executable that doesn't have to be linked against leveldb. This commit only does code movement, there are no functional changes.
