-Mongoose and mongodb dependencies have been updated to the most recent versions in package.json
-Updated the project for use with the newest mongoose major version which required fixing many breaking changes to a number of files in the explorer
-Removed the db.find_address_tx() function as it is unused
NOTE: This update requires mongoose 6.0.10 or higher. If you are getting errors running the explorer after upgrading, it is recommended to run an 'npm update' or manually update mongoose to a more modern version which should fix the problem
-The block sync will now remove orphaned block data from the txes collecton, address balances/sent/received data as well as addresstx data and now stores limited info in a new orphans collection
-Added a new optional page for viewing orphaned block data
-The coinbase address now updates sent totals from POS rewards and other transactions that have vout but no vin addresses
-Block and transaction pages now display a warning when viewing an orphaned block or tx
-Added a couple new fields to the coinstats collection for tracking orphaned blocks
-Added new locale strings for the orphaned block feature
-Some blockchains store certain vin or vout addresses within an array instead of as a simple string which would cause them to be read improperly by the explorer and result in transactions that were not attributed to the proper address. It also caused multiple inputs/outputs from the same address in a single transaction to not be grouped together like other transactions in the explorer
-If the explorer is installed to a directory that has a space character somewhere in the absolute path, the locking mechanism will not work correctly on non-windows computers and will cause undesired behavior without this fix
-The update_explorer.js script has been improved with better spacing and the ability to restart the explorer automatically to ensure new changes take effect immidiately (works with npm start, pm2 and forever)
-The code to compile scss to css has been moved from the prestart script into its own compile_css.js script which is now called from the update-explorer.js script to apply css changes after update
-The cluster code now handles a custom restart msg which is used to restart the explorer from the update explorer process
-Pm2 and Forever are now referenced by the name 'explorer' instead of ./bin/instance or ./bin/cluster [SEE IMPORTANT NOTE BELOW]
-Added reload/restart scripts to the package.json for pm2 and forever
-Pm2 and forever now write a pid file to the tmp directory when started. NOTE: Forever is now started from the prestart script due to a bug in forever that prevents the pid from being written to a different directory without the absolute path
-Fixed a bug which caused the prestart script to be run twice when starting the explorer with `npm start`
-The cluster code now accepts a numeric argument to force a specific number of instances to be loaded
-The `npm run start-instance` cmd now loads using the cluster code with a single instance
-The is_locked function now accepts an optional 'silent' argument to prevent displaying msgs while checking for pid/lock files
-Added some process.exit statements to the stop_explorer.js file
-Updated the README with cmd changes from package.json and updated description of the "Update Explorer Script"
IMPORTANT NOTE: It is strongly recommended to stop the explorer before performing this update. If the explorer is running while you perform this update, you will need to stop and restart the explorer for this update to fully take effect. Because of the changes in this commit, stopping the explorer using the built-in pm2 and/or forever stop cmds will not work and you will need to type out the full stop cmd this one time only, and going forward from now on you should no longer need to even stop the explorer for any update as it is now built into the update cmd.
If running using pm2 and you cannot stop the explorer, you can use stop using the following full cmd syntax:
Windows:
pm2 stop ./bin/instance
Linux and other OS's:
node node_modules/pm2/bin/pm2 stop ./bin/instance
If running using forever and you cannot stop the explorer, you can use stop using the following full cmd syntax:
All OS's:
node node_modules/forever/bin/forever stop ./bin/cluster
-freegeoip.app now requires an api key so the peer sync has been updated to use reallyfreegeoip.org instead
-Added extra error checking to the peer sync so that it will error out when the geolocation service does not return a proper object
-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
-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
-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
-Lots of misc fixes and code cleanup changes
