Removed some more cruft
Temporarly disabled JSON API generation of RsWebUi methods due to
compilation breakage when rs_webui is disabled, RsWebUi keeps working
but cannot be restarted from JSON API
ATM it support extracting metadata only from OGG files.
The system has been designed to be easly extensible to more file formats
registering more indexer functions which just need to extract metadata
from a certain type of file and feed it to Xapian.
The system has been integrated into existent file search system to
through generric search requests and results, it keep a good level of
retro-compatibility due to some tricks.
The indexing system is released under AGPLv3 so when libretroshare is compiled
with deep search enabled AGPLv3 must be honored instead of LGPLv3-or-later.
Cleaned up the debian copyright file using non-deprecated license
code-names.
Discover peers on the same broadcast domain/LAN
Implements own node announcement
Implements others announcement listening
Implements API to get notifiend when other nodes get discovered
Implements API to get discovered nodes
Add discovered peer locator to rsPeers if it is already friend
Yet a bunch of things to do to take full advantage of this new
implementation
This is mainly to avoid problems with source checkout on windows because
network:retroshare which is the name needed by OBS is proibited (:) on
windows FS
- Removed commandline switch "version"
- Added MinGit for determining version information during compile process
- Added sigcheck to determine version of the executable
This doesn't need any interacion of the user at startup, unlike
retroshare-nogui which requires the user to login on the shell this doesn't
even need a TTY.
At startup this just parse command line, read the PGP keyring, look for
available locations, and start listening for JSON API requests.
Another difference with retroshare-nogui is that this is capable to
generate/import PGP identities, generate locations, and in general anything
possible through the RetroShare API.
retroshare-service is suitable also to run it as a system service, even
in very constrained systems such as Android ot a Docker container.
retroshare-service drop support for libresapi so only the new JSON API
is exposed, it will completely obsolete retroshare-android-service once
retroshare-qml-app is ported to the new JSON API.
