DFX

feat: add --no-wallet flag and --wallet option to allow Users to bypass Wallet or specify a Wallet to use for calls (#1476)

Added --no-wallet flag to dfx canister and dfx deploy. This allows users to call canister management functionality with their Identity as the Sender (bypassing their Wallet canister.)
Added --wallet option to dfx canister and dfx deploy. This allows users to specify a wallet canister id to use as the Sender for calls.
--wallet and --no-wallet conflict with each other. Omitting both will invoke the selected Identity's wallet canister to perform calls.

feat: add canister subcommands sign and send

Users can use dfx canister sign ... to generated a signed canister call in a json file. Then dfx canister send [message.json] to the network.

Users can sign the message on an air-gapped computer which is secure to host private keys.

Note

  • sign and send currently don't proxy through wallet canister. Users should use the subcommands with dfx canister --no-wallet sign ....

  • The sign option --expire-after will set the ingress_expiry to a future timestamp which is current plus the duration.
    Then users can send the message during a 5 minutes time window ending in that ingress_expiry timestamp. Sending the message earlier or later than the time window will both result in a replica error.

feat: implement the HTTP Request proposal in dfx' bootstrap webserver. +

And add support for http requests in the base storage canister (with a default to /index.html).

This does not support other encodings than identity for now (and doesn't even return any headers). This support will be added to the upgraded asset storage canister built in #1482.

Added a test that uses curl localhost to test that the asset storage AND the webserver properly support the http requests.

This commit also upgrades tokio and reqwest in order to work correctly. There are also some performance issues noted (this is slower than the icx-http-server for some reason), but those are not considered criticals and could be improved later on.

Renamed the project_name in our own generated assets to canister_name, for things that are generated during canister build (and not project generation).

feat: add support for ECDSA on secp256k1

You can now a generate private key via OpenSSL or a simlar tool, import it into dfx, and use it to sign an ingress message.

openssl ecparam -name secp256k1 -genkey -out identity.pem
dfx identity import <name> identity.pem
dfx identity use <name>
dfx canister call ...

Asset Canister

feat: The asset canister can now store assets that exceed the message ingress limit (2 MB)

  • Please note that neither the JS agent nor the HTTP server have been updated yet to server such large assets.
  • The existing interface is left in place for backwards-compatibility, but deprecated:
    ** retrieve(): use get() and get_chunk() instead
    ** store(): use create_batch(), create_chunk(), and commit_batch() instead
    ** list(): use keys() instead
