-Difficulty chart would fail to populate if the shared_pages.difficulty setting was 'Hybrid' and is now handled properly. The chart now supports 2 datasets: POW and POS
-NetworkHistory.difficulty field was renamed to difficulty_pow and a new difficulty_pos field was added
-The shared_pages.page_header.network_charts.difficulty_chart.line_color setting was renamed to pow_line_color
-The shared_pages.page_header.network_charts.difficulty_chart.fill_color setting was renamed to pow_fill_color
NOTE: If you have existing NetworkHistory data from before this update, it will be automatically assumed to be POW. If it was actualy POS, you will need to either manually fix the data in mongo or simply wait a couple hours while syncing to eventually push the old data out of the chart
-Added locks to all sync processes (blocks, markets, peers, masternodes) as well as "create backup", "restore backup" and "delete database" functions. This helps prevent problems with syncing data while a backup is in progress for example
-The code to initialize certain database collections on startup was moved into database.js and is now called from restore_backup.js and delete_database.js. This effectively allows the database to be deleted or restored to a completely different backup while the explorer is still running
-Lock functions (create_lock, remove_lock, is_locked) were moved into explorer.js for better reusability and rewriten to be synchronous
-is_locked function now accepts an array of lock files to be able to check for multiple locks in a single call
-remove_sync_message() function was moved into database.js so that restore_backup.js and delete_database.js can also check for and remove the sync msg if it exists
-Useful Scripts section updated in the README to make it clear that the explorer no longer needs to be stopped for these scripts to be run
-Most if not all log messages now start with a capitlal letter
-All shell scripts have been removed and replaced with javascript equivalents which allows for better platform independence
-All scripts have been improved over the older shell scripts to be more functional and dynamic
-Updated all applicable cmds in the package.json to target the new js scripts + added the backup, restore and delete database functions to the list
-Removed the json and strip-json-comments-cli packages as they are no longer needed
-Added a new package realine-sync
-Updated cluster code with better Windows support when shutting down the explorer
-Backup and Restore scripts now use mongo's own encryption instead of tar.gz by default. Older tar.gz backups can still be restored as long as the tar.gz suffix is explicitly added
-Backup and Restore scripts now support connecting to remote database based on the mongo details in settings.json
-Updated README to include a new line for the 'platform independence' feature, updated script cmds and notes about certain steps being Linux only
-Hashrate chart is populated from get_hashrate
-Difficulty chart is populated from get_difficulty
-Added a networkhistories collection to hold the new network data
-Index sync and resync functions now check for and update network history data at the end of the sync process
-restore_backup.sh and delete_database.sh scripts now drop the new networkhistories collection
-Added a new javascript library chartjs-plugin-crosshair which adds crosshair functionality to the new chart.js line charts
-Added new settings to settings.json for controlling things like collecting network_history data, independently enabling/disabling the network charts and changing colors of various aspects of the charts
-Updated README to introduce the network charts and added a line for the chartjs-plugin-crosshair library
-All node dependencies are up-to-date in package.json
-Updated semantic versioning of some node dependencies in package.json
-Applied fixes to necessary explorer files to fix breaking changes to mongoose dependency
-Update README with new Node.js and MongoDB version recommendations
NOTE: Node.js must be updated to at least v14.13.1 to fix breaking errors in a few of the updated dependencies
-Also add output displaying which block is currently being checked as before it was almost impossible to determine what, if anything was happening in check mode
-Market sync now sets the last USD price based on the default market pair even if it is not BTC
-Removed the coindesk api which was only really useful for getting the USD price of BTC
-Added a couple coingecko apis which are used to get the current USD value of the default market pair
-Updated the readme, settings file comments and info/api page with better verbiage regarding the market price which was previously only measured in BTC
-Automatically detect if using newer or older Dash masternode format and display applicable columns and data
-Added new fields 'ip_address' and 'last_paid_block' to the Masternode collection
-Adds a tx_type field to the tx model which is typically null for "normal" transaction types, but can also display 'p2pk' for bitcoin txes which require addtional encoding to reveal the P2PKH address as well as 'zksnarks' for transactions with hidden sender or receiver data
-Additional fixes for how data is displayed when a valid wallet address cannot be found
-Includes some small updates to how zksnarks transactions display hidden sender/receiver data
-Replace tabs with double-spaces
-Betting spacing and lining up of code functions
-Add missing semi-colons
-Remove extra characters and spaces where applicable
-Remove commented-out code fragments
-Add missing 2021 date to LICENSE
-Small touchups and other misc nitpickings
-Better error handling of update_db()
-Fixes an issue that can cause some stats values to get set to a negative number when running an index sync and the wallet daemon has not finished loading the blockchain yet (If this happens to you, stop the explorer, apply this fix with `git pull` to make sure it doesn't happen again, then run a reindex-txcount and reindex-last to restore the proper values)
-The last market price was not properly checking against trading pairs and was updating based on all pairs for the default exchange which could potentially cause non-BTC markets to show a much higher last price value than normal
-Restructured the settings.json.template and settings.js files with better groupings
-Added better comments for improved explanations of all settings
-Better handling of page length options on all datatables; Page length options are now configurable and also only display options based on limits set by certain items_per_page and max_items_per_query settings
-Markets have been extended to support unlimited trading pairs for each exchange
-Added coin_symbol and pair_symbol to the markets schema to support multiple trading pairs
-Added a burned field to the richlist schema for tracking burned coin addresses
-Added a locale string for the new richlist wealth distribution "Top 1-100 Total" table row
-Updated a couple locale strings that were incomplete or needed fixing (api_getblockhash and api_getnextrewardwhenstr)
-Added a new css class to remove some redundant inline styles for the richlist wealth distribution color boxes
-Richlist page now allows better separation of the top list(s) and the wealth distribution table and chart (you can now hide or show sections as desired)
-Richlist page now allows for better burned coin support (Hide burned coin addresses from lists and totals even when the burned coin amounts are still included in the total coin supply value)
-Block page now only displays the raw block link if the api_page.public_apis.rpc.getblock.enabled settings is set to true
-Transaction page now only displays the raw tx link if the api_page.public_apis.rpc.getrawtransaction.enabled setting is set to true
-Rate limiting class has been made global and is now used to limit market requests
-getnetworkhashps rpc call now returns a '-' if shared_pages.show_hashrate is not set to true
-Searching for unsycned blocks/txs no longer saves the data locally but instead still shows the data on screen. This helps prevent syncing data out-of-order (This eliminates the need for db_index.pid which has been removed)
-Coin supply is now always taken from the stats collection database instead of from the wallet via rpc command in all cases except when syncing
