A high-level view of the changes in each ConsensusJ binary release.

v0.7.0-SNAPSHOT

Released: in-progress

Dependency Updates

  • bitcoinj 0.17-beta1

  • Jackson 2.17.2

  • RxJava 3.1.9

  • JeroMQ 0.6.0

  • SLF 2.0.16

  • Micronaut Platform 4.5.1

v0.7.0-alpha3

Released: 2023-10-05

This release includes significant updates the JSON-RPC client(s) and contains what should be relatively minor breaking changes.

JSON-RPC clients

  • Upgraded to use java.net.http asynchronous client by default

  • Async operation is now the default at the transport layer

  • Asynchronous connection and "wait for server" logic

  • Migrate "wait for server" logic from BitcionCient to DefaultRpcClient

  • DefaultRpcClient replaces AbstractRpcClient and takes a configurable JsonRpcTransport

  • Partial decoupling from Jackson JSON processor (see type parameter T in JsonRpcClient<T>)

  • Remove deprecated methods that use SSLSocketFactory (In favor of SSLContext)

  • Remove deprecated methods that use/return NetworkParameters.

consensusj-jsonrpc-cli

  • Is now built using Java and GraalVM 21.

  • --log=n option to set log-level.

Reactive (Rx) Components

  • Migrate from Flowable to Publisher where possible (breaking changes but easy to work around)

  • Migrate from Single/Maybe to CompletableFuture in some (mostly internal) places

  • ChainTipPublisher class help solves issues with erasure in generics and allow DI component constructors to take a ChainTipPublisher rather than ChainTipClient.

Reproducible/Deterministic build

  • See Issue 17 and release-process.adoc.

  • CI builds generate SHA256SUMS file for verification.

Dependency Updates

  • Micronaut 4.1.2

  • JeroMQ 0.5.4

  • Groovy 4.0.15

  • SLF4J 2.0.9

Build/Test Updates

  • Gradle 8.4

  • Create GitHub Actions GraalVM CE Matrix: Java 17, 21

  • GitLab CI build uses Debian "Trixie" and OpenJDK 21

v0.7.0-alpha2

Released: 2023-08-30

The 0.7.0 release of ConsensusJ will require bitcoinj v0.17, currently in alpha release. There will likely be multiple alpha releases of ConsensusJ as bitcoinj is updated.

bitcoinj-0.17-alpha2 update

  • Upgrade to bitcoinj-0.17-alpha2 API

  • More migration away from NetworkParameters

consensusj-jsonrpc

  • JSON-RPC clients that need custom SSL behavior should implement the new constructors that take an SSLContext and stop using the deprecated constructors that use SSLSocketFactory. (The deprecated constructors will be removed in the next alpha release!)

  • Add (abstract) sendRequestForResponseAsync with async becoming the preferred way to implement this interface.

  • Now that this module requires Java 11+, the incubating java.net.http-based client JsonRpcClientJavaNet has been moved here. The consensusj-jsonrpc-javanet module has been removed. Feel free to try out this client instead of JsonRpcClientHttpUrlConnection and let us know how it works.

consensusj-jsonrpc-javanet (removed)

This incubating module has been removed. Its only class, org.consensusj.jsonrpc.javanet.JsonRpcClientJavaNet has been moved to the consensusj-jsonrpc module (in the org.consensusj.jsonrpc package.)

If you are using consensusj-jsonrpc-javanet, you need to remove the .javanet from your import statements. You should also remove your Maven/Gradle references to the JAR/Module and replace them with references to consensusj-jsonrpc.

consensusj-jsonrpc-cli

  • BaseJsonRpcTool and jsonrpc tool use the java.net.http implementation (JsonRpcClientJavaNet) rather than the old java.net.HttpURLConnection implementation.

Dependency Updates

  • Jackson 2.15.2

  • Groovy 4.0.14

  • RxJava 3.1.7

  • JeroMQ 0.5.3

  • Micronaut 4.0.5

Build/Test Updates

  • Gradle 8.3

  • GitHub JDK Matrix: Java 11, 17, 21-ea

  • GraalVM 17.0.7 (new release with new versioning scheme)

  • Enable Dependabot

v0.7.0-alpha1

Released: 2023-05-25

The 0.7.0 release of ConsensusJ will require bitcoinj v0.17, currently in alpha release. There will likely be multiple alpha releases of ConsensusJ as bitcoinj is updated.

bitcoinj-0.17 update

  • Upgrade to bitcoinj-0.17-alpha1 API

  • Migrate from NetworkParameters to Network where possible

  • Remove usage of Guava ListenableFuture

  • Remove PatchedTransaction class used to work around an issue in bitcoinj, see bitcoinj #2274

cj-bitcoinj-util

Note: The transaction signing classes and interfaces in this module are incubating and most likely will continue to change with each release.

  • Require JDK 9 (make use of List.of())

  • BaseTransactionSigner can look up keys and pubKeys

  • Distinguish between RawTransactionSigningRequest and SigningRequest (i.e. the later has all UTXO information and can be signed with keychain only)

  • (Generally) construct SigningRequest with of, remove (most) add methods

  • SigningRequest constructor that specifies outputs as a Map<Address, Coin>

  • Rename TransactionInputDataImpl to TransactionInputDataUtxo

  • Utxo interface with Base, Signable, and Complete implementations

cj-bitcoinj-json

  • UtxoInfo, PrevTxOutInfo change scriptPubKey type to Script (from String)

  • Add ScriptSerializer

cj-btc-services

  • WalletAppKitService supports (at least subsets of) many additional RPC methods:

    • createrawtransaction

    • sendrawtransaction

    • getbalance

    • getnewaddress

    • listunspent

    • sendtoaddress

    • signrawtransactionwithwallet

  • WalletAppKitService: deprecated getinfo method removed

  • WalletSigningService can look up UTXO scriptPubKey and amount

Dependency Updates

  • Most modules now require a minimum of JDK 11 or later (see README.adoc for exceptions)

  • Jackson 2.15.0

  • Micronaut 3.9.1

  • Groovy 4.0.12

Build/Test Updates

  • Gradle 8.1.1

  • Use JAVA_HOME not GRAALVM_HOME to find native-image tool in consensusj-jsonrpc, consensusj-jsonrpc-cli and cj-btc-cli builds.

  • GitHub JDK Matrix: Java 11, 17, 20

  • gradle-git-publish 4.2.0

  • gitPublishPushCopy.dependsOn javadocAll, asciidoctor

  • Publish source and Javadoc JARs

v0.6.5

v0.6.0

Released: 2022-07-25

Java Version upgrades

  • JSON-RPC clients: Java 9

  • JSON-RPC servers: Java 17

  • CLI modules: Java 17

For details see ConsensusJ Modules in the README.

Java Automatic Module Name Support

  • All libraries now have Automatic-Module-Name set in their JARs.

  • Some packages were moved to (mostly) conform to the guideline of root package and module name being the same. Notably:

    • org.consensusj.bitcoin.rpc → org.consensusj.bitcoin.jsonrpc

    • org.consensusj.bitcoin.test → org.consensusj.bitcoin.jsonrpc.test

    • org.consensusj.bitcoin.rpc.groovy → org.consensusj.bitcoin.jsonrpc.groovy

    • org.consensusj.bitcoin.rpcserver → org.consensusj.bitcoin.rpc.json.rpc

Server-side JSON-RPC methods now return CompletableFuture

  • org.consensusj.jsonrpc.JsonRpcService.call(JsonRpcRequest) now returns CompletableFuture<JsonRpcResponse<RSLT>>. This means all server implementations derived from this method were also updated.

  • Corresponding changes in consensusj-jsonrpc-daemon, cj-btc-json, cj-btc-services, cj-btc-daemon.

consensusj-jsonrpc-cli

  • Support parsing command-line arguments that are JSON strings.

cj-btc-json

  • add help and stop commands to BitcoinJsonRpc

  • Add GraalVM support

  • Add help and stop commands

cj-bitcoinj-util

  • Continued development of transaction signer stuff classes (incubating)

  • Updated BIP43 support (incubating)

Removed cj-eth-jsonrpc-groovy, cj-nmc-jsonrpc-groovy

  • These modules were experimental, unused (to my knowledge) and are easily constructed from the Java version with implements DynamicRpcMethodFallback.

v0.4.0

Released: 2019.03.26

bitcoinj 0.15.1 and JDK 8+ everywhere!

Breaking Changes

Release 0.4.0 upgrades to bitcoinj 0.15.1 for all modules with bitcoinj dependencies. bitcoinj 0.15.x adds support for Segregated Witness and contains breaking changes.

Release 0.4.0 is also the first release where all modules requires JDK 8 or later.

Some classes and modules have moved to different Java packages.

consensusj-decentralized-id

New, experimental module: Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs), and specifically BTCR DID Method support.

consensusj-jsonrpc

  • Add proof-of-concept (GraalVM/SubstrateVM-compatible) JSON-RPC Server (Service Layer) support

consensusj-jsonrpc-cli

New module: a general-purpose (no Bitcoin or cryptocurrency dependencies or specialization) JSON-RPC command-line client with request and response logging. Can be compiled to a native command-line tool using the GraalVM native-image tool.

consensusj-jsonrpc-daemon

New module: Micronaut-based (and GraalVM/SubstrateVM-compatible) JSON-RPC sample ("echo") server.

cj-btc-daemon-mn

New module: Micronaut-based proof-of-concept Bitcoin JSON-RPC server. This will probably replace the Spring-based bitcoinj-daemon going forward because it is faster and smaller.
