This change updates our urfave/cli dependency to the v2 branch of the library.
There are some Go API changes in cli v2:
- Flag values can now be accessed using the methods ctx.Bool,
ctx.Int, ctx.String, ... regardless of whether the flag is 'local' or
'global'.
- v2 has built-in support for flag categories. Our home-grown category
system is removed and the categories of flags are assigned as part of
the flag definition.
For users, there is only one observable difference with cli v2: flags must now
strictly appear before regular arguments. For example, the following command is
now invalid:
geth account import mykey.json --password file.txt
Instead, the command must be invoked as follows:
geth account import --password file.txt mykey.json
This enables the following linters
- typecheck
- unused
- staticcheck
- bidichk
- durationcheck
- exportloopref
- gosec
WIth a few exceptions.
- We use a deprecated protobuf in trezor. I didn't want to mess with that, since I cannot meaningfully test any changes there.
- The deprecated TypeMux is used in a few places still, so the warning for it is silenced for now.
- Using string type in context.WithValue is apparently wrong, one should use a custom type, to prevent collisions between different places in the hierarchy of callers. That should be fixed at some point, but may require some attention.
- The warnings for using weak random generator are squashed, since we use a lot of random without need for cryptographic guarantees.
Previously, the test waited a second and then failed if geth had not
started. This caused the test to fail intermittently. This change checks
whether the IPC is open 10 times over a 5 second period and then fails
if geth is still not available.
USB enumeration still occured. Make sure it will only occur if --usb is set.
This also deprecates the 'NoUSB' config file option in favor of a new option 'USB'.
