Pull request description:

  Fixes #997
  Replaces #1002

  ### Description

  This PR changes the `LocalChain` implementation to have blocks stored as a linked-list. This allows the data-src thread to hold a shared ref to a single checkpoint and have access to the whole history of checkpoints without cloning or keeping a lock on `LocalChain`.

  The APIs of `bdk::Wallet`, `esplora` and `electrum` are also updated to reflect these changes. Note that the `esplora` crate is rewritten to anchor txs in the confirmation block (using the esplora API's tx status block_hash). This guarantees 100% consistency between anchor blocks and their transactions (instead of anchoring txs to the latest tip). `ExploraExt` now has separate methods for updating the `TxGraph` and `LocalChain`.

  A new method `TxGraph::missing_blocks` is introduced for finding "floating anchors" of a `TxGraph` update (given a chain).

  Additional changes:

  * `test_local_chain.rs` is refactored to make test cases easier to write. Additional tests are also added.
  * Examples are updated.
  * Exclude example-cli `*.db` files in `.gitignore`.
  * Rm duplicate `bdk_tmp_plan` module.

  ### Notes to the reviewers

  This is the smallest possible division of #1002 without resulting in PRs that do not compile. Since we have changed the API of `LocalChain`, we also need to change `esplora`, `electrum` crates and examples alongside `bdk::Wallet`.

  ### Changelog notice

  * Implement linked-list `LocalChain`. This allows the data-src thread to hold a shared ref to a single checkpoint and have access to the whole history of checkpoints without cloning or keeping a lock on `LocalChain`.
  * Rewrote `esplora` chain-src crate to anchor txs to their confirmation blocks (using esplora API's tx-status `block_hash`).

About

The bdk libraries aims to provide well engineered and reviewed components for Bitcoin based applications. It is built upon the excellent rust-bitcoin and rust-miniscript crates.

⚠ The Bitcoin Dev Kit developers are in the process of releasing a v1.0 which is a fundamental re-write of how the library works. See for some background on this project: https://bitcoindevkit.org/blog/road-to-bdk-1/ (ignore the timeline 😁) For a release timeline see the bdk_core_staging repo where a lot of the component work is being done. The plan is that everything in the bdk_core_staging repo will be moved into the crates directory here.

Architecture

The project is split up into several crates in the /crates directory:

  • bdk: Contains the central high level Wallet type that is built from the low-level mechanisms provided by the other components
  • chain: Tools for storing and indexing chain data
  • file_store: A (experimental) persistence backend for storing chain data in a single file.
  • esplora: Extends the esplora-client crate with methods to fetch chain data from an esplora HTTP server in the form that [bdk_chain] and Wallet can consume.
  • electrum: Extends the electrum-client crate with methods to fetch chain data from an electrum server in the form that [bdk_chain] and Wallet can consume.

Fully working examples of how to use these components are in /example-crates

Minimum Supported Rust Version (MSRV)

This library should compile with any combination of features with Rust 1.57.0.

To build with the MSRV you will need to pin dependencies as follows:

# log 0.4.19 has MSRV 1.60.0+
cargo update -p log --precise "0.4.18"
# tempfile 3.7.0 has MSRV 1.63.0
cargo update -p tempfile --precise "3.6.0"
