Many of the "message manager" background methods return a full copy of
the background state in their response; presumably to save us from
making a full round-trip to update the UI `metamask` state after it
changes. However, the action creators responsible for calling these
methods were calling `updateMetamaskState` even when the background
method failed. In effect, they were setting the UI `metamask` state to
`undefined`.
They have been updated to only set the UI `metamask` state if the
background method succeeded.
`setSelectedAddress` returned a thunk that didn't return a Promise,
despite doing async work. It now returns a Promise.
This action creator was only called in two places, and neither benefit
from using the Promise now returned. They were both event handlers. In
both cases there was an existing Promise chain, but the only thing
after this set was a `catch` block that displayed any error
encountered. I decided not to return the result of `setSelectedAddress`
to this chain, because all it would do is set the warning a second
time in the event of failure.
The `forceUpdateMetamaskState` function now uses `async/await` instead
of a Promise constructor. This was done to make an upcoming change
easier (making `updateMetamaskState` async).
`showAccountDetail` returned a thunk that didn't return a Promise,
despite doing async work. Now it returns a Promise.
This action is only called in one place, and it looks like the actions
dispatched alongside it were meant to be run in parallel, so no changes
were made there.
`forceUpdateMetamaskState` was being called in various action creators
without `await`. Each action creator now waits for the state update to
complete before continuing.
`setCurrentCurrency` returned a thunk that didn't return a Promise,
despite doing async work. It now returns a Promise.
The callers in this case never needed to know when this action had
completed, but at least this makes our tests more reliable. They were
already `await`-ing this action, despite the lack of Promise.
The action creators that use `forceUpdateMetamaskState` without
awaiting that task's completion have been updated to use `async/await`.
This was done in preparation for `await`-ing the completion of
`forceUpdateMetamaskState`, which will be done in a subsequent PR.
The `shift-list-item` component for displaying ShapeShift transactions
has been removed, along with three other components that were used
solely by that component (`copyButton`, `eth-balance`, and
`fiat-value`).
This component hasn't been used in some time, as ShapeShift
transactions no longer exist to display. The controller that ShapeShift
transactions originated from was removed in #8118, and it became
impossible to create new ShapeShift transactions from within MetaMask
in #6746
This state has been removed from the background. It was used for the
old UI, and has been unused for some time. A migration has been added
to delete this state as well.
The action creator responsible for updating this state has been removed
from the UI as well, along with the `callBackgroundThenUpdateNoSpinner`
convenience function, which was only used for this action.
The `transForward` app state is no longer used, so it has been removed.
Associated actions have been removed as well.
This state dates back a few years, so I was unable to determine when it
was made obsolete.
Keyrings are added either through the `getKeyringForDevice` background
method (as part of the hardware wallet connect flow), or via
`importAccountWithStrategy` (when importing an account). The
`addNewKeyring` action and corresponding background method has not been
used in a long time.
The `estimateGasMethod` function passed to `estimateGas` is now an
async function. It is now invoked using `async/await` rather than a
Promise constructor.
This was done as part of a broader effort to use Promises rather than
callbacks when interacting with the background.
The background connection used in `actions.js` was being promisified
in specific actions. Instead it's now promisified once. This was made
possible by changes in `pify` v5.0.0 that ensure the binding works
correctly when passing in an object to `pify` (e.g. the `this` value
is correctly set to the wrapped background connection).
This async background connection has been temporarily assigned to a
separate variable, until we can transition all of our actions to using
this. This was done to reduce the size of this PR. There are a lot of
actions.
This state hasn't been used since #5886. The nonce we display in our UI
is now from the background, rather than queried directly from the
front-end.
This also means we save making this network call each time a pending
transaction is added, and each time the transaction list is mounted.
Some of the unit tests for `actions.js` were calling async actions
without `await`-ing them. All async actions are now called with `await`
to ensure they've completed.
`pify` v5.0.0 will preserve `this` references correctly, so explicit
binding of objects passed to `pify` is no longer needed.
There are no breaking changes that affect us; the only breaking change
in v4 and v5 is to update the minimum Node.js version to v10.
The comment above this function was originally written for a different
function: `callBackgroundThenUpdate`. It was mistakenly left above
`callBackgroundThenUpdateNoSpinner` in #1603 when this function was
added.
The original `callBackgroundThenUpdate` function this was written for
was removed recently in #7675, as it was no longer used.
The format of the comment has also been updated to match our
conventions, and JSDoc params have been added.
`markPasswordForgotten` is an asynchronous function, but it was being
called synchronously. The page was redirected without waiting for the
operation to complete.
We now wait for the operation to complete before continuing. Failure is
still not being handled correctly, but that will be addressed in a
separate PR.
