AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'has_expired'
```
In SendTab.broadcast_transaction.broadcast_thread, self.payto_e.payment_identifier was referenced -
but do_clear() has already cleared it by then.
E.g. consider SendTab.pay_onchain_dialog: it calls save_pending_invoice(), which calls do_clear(),
and later (in sign_done), it calls window.broadcast_or_show, which will call SendTab.broadcast_transaction().
As there might be multiple independent transaction dialogs open simultaneously, the single shared state
send_tab.payto_e.payment_identifier approach was problematic -- I think it is conceptually nicer to
pass around the payment_identifiers as needed, as done with this change.
However, this change is not a full proper fix, as it still somewhat relies on
send_tab.payto_e.payment_identifier (e.g. in pay_onchain_dialog). Hence, e.g. when using
the invoice_list context menu "Pay..." item, as payto_e.payment_identifier is not set,
payment_identifier will be None in broadcast_transaction.
but at least we handle PI being None gracefully -- before this change, broadcast_transaction
expected PI to be set, and it was never set to the correct thing (as do_clear() already ran by then):
depending on timing it was either None or a new empty PI. In the former case, producing the above
traceback and hard failing (not only for bip70 stuff!), and in the latter, silently ignoring the logic bug.
regression from https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/pull/8462
- pr.verify() was called in qml, but not in qt gui
- we now call pr.verify() in get_payment_request(), to make the API less error-prone
- it is now ok to call pr.verify() multiple times, the result is cached
A new config API is introduced, and ~all of the codebase is adapted to it.
The old API is kept but mainly only for dynamic usage where its extra flexibility is needed.
Using examples, the old config API looked this:
```
>>> config.get("request_expiry", 86400)
604800
>>> config.set_key("request_expiry", 86400)
>>>
```
The new config API instead:
```
>>> config.WALLET_PAYREQ_EXPIRY_SECONDS
604800
>>> config.WALLET_PAYREQ_EXPIRY_SECONDS = 86400
>>>
```
The old API operated on arbitrary string keys, the new one uses
a static ~enum-like list of variables.
With the new API:
- there is a single centralised list of config variables, as opposed to
these being scattered all over
- no more duplication of default values (in the getters)
- there is now some (minimal for now) type-validation/conversion for
the config values

closes https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/pull/5649
Note: there is yet a third API added here, for certain niche/abstract use-cases,
where we need a reference to the config variable itself.
It should only be used when needed:
```
>>> var = config.cv.WALLET_PAYREQ_EXPIRY_SECONDS
>>> var
<ConfigVarWithConfig key='request_expiry'>
>>> var.get()
604800
>>> var.set(3600)
>>> var.get_default_value()
86400
>>> var.is_set()
True
>>> var.is_modifiable()
True
```
B008 Do not perform function calls in argument defaults. The call is performed only once at function definition time. All calls to your function will reuse the result of that definition-time function call. If this is intended, assign the function call to a module-level variable and use that variable as a default value.
This allows users to edit labels from the utxo_dialog,
without having to search for the transaction in history.
Also, remove block hash from tx dialog: not very useful, and
available through block explorers. (the situation where this
could be useful is case of a chain fork, but in that case the
tx might be mined in both branches of the fork, and we would
want to know that).
- wallet.add_input_info() previously had a fallback to download parent
prev txs from the network (after a lookup in wallet.db failed).
wallet.add_input_info() is not async, so the network request cannot
be done cleanly there and was really just a hack.
- tx.add_info_from_wallet() calls wallet.add_input_info() on each txin,
in which case these network requests were done sequentially, not concurrently
- the network part of wallet.add_input_info() is now split out into new method:
txin.add_info_from_network()
- in addition to tx.add_info_from_wallet(), there is now also tx.add_info_from_network()
- callers of old tx.add_info_from_wallet() should now called either
- tx.add_info_from_wallet(), then tx.add_info_from_network(), preferably in that order
- tx.add_info_from_wallet() alone is sufficient if the tx is complete,
or typically when not in a signing context
- callers of wallet.bump_fee and wallet.dscancel are now expected to have already
called tx.add_info_from_network(), as it cannot be done in a non-async context
(but for the common case of all-inputs-are-ismine, bump_fee/dscancel should work regardless)
- PartialTxInput.utxo was moved to the baseclass, TxInput.utxo
That way, users can see the effects settings directly on their transaction.
This changes the API of make_tx:
- get_coins is called inside make_tx, so that inputs can be changed dynamically
- make_tx takes an optional parameter: unconfirmed_only, passed to get_coins
- ConfirmTxDialog detects if we can pay by disabling confirmed_only or lowering fee
- add a new event, 'adb_removed_tx'
- new wallet method: get_tx_parents
- number of parents is shown in coins tab
- detailed list of parents is shown in dialog
Always use "." as decimal point, and " " as thousands separator.
Previously,
- for decimal point, we were using
- "." in some places (e.g. AmountEdit, most fiat amounts), and
- `locale.localeconv()['decimal_point']` in others.
- for thousands separator, we were using
- "," in some places (most fiat amounts), and
- " " in others (format_satoshis)
I think it is better to be consistent even if whatever we pick differs from the locale.
Using whitespace for thousands separator (vs comma) is probably less confusing for people
whose locale would user "." for ts and "," for dp (as in e.g. German).
The alternative option would be to always use the locale. Even if we decide to do that later,
this refactoring should be useful.
