Add flatfile DirMgr
This is a first shot at implementing the changes needed for #267 (closed).
-
Definition of a
DirProvidertrait, abstracting theDirMgr. This is not complete, and in particular there is an issue with the client callingbootstrap(): the call cannot be abstracted in the trait, becauseasync fn's are not (yet) supported. -
Changes in
TorClientto use aDirProviderinstead of aDirMgr. Not complete, due to the above (currently has a nasty hack of keeping a reference to the actualDirMgr). -
Implementation of a minimalist
DirProvidercalledFlatFileDirMgr, that only loads the directory from cache files. Hidden behind alightartifeature. -
Changes in
TorClientto useFlatFileDirMgrunder alightartifeature. -
Addition of a couple of methods to
UnvalidatedMdConsensus, to help manipulating the relays inFlatFileDirMgr. -
Addition of
FromStrforAuthority, to allow us to load an authority from a file. The use of it is actually outside of Arti, in our client code, feeding the authorities toTorClientthrough configuration.
All comments and suggestions for improvements welcome.
