feat(cactus-plugin-ledger-connector-ethereum): add new connector plugin
Add new plugin for connecting with Ethereum ledgers. New connector is based on already existing
quorum connector. The main reason for introducing yet another plugin is a need
for web3js upgrade (to 4.X) which is imposible in current quorum / besu connectors due to
dependency to `web3js-quorum` which requires web3js 1.X.
We have plans to make web3js library pluggable and reduce code duplication among other connectors
in the future, but it will be delivered later on in a separate PR.
Changes:
- Add new plugin based on quorum connector.
- Removed private transaction and other quorum related functionalities.
- Update web3js to 1.10 - will be updated to 4.X in a separate commit.
- Add missing `web3-eth-contract` dependencies to besu and xdai connectors.
- Add new connector to cactus-verifier-client
- Add integration tests in `cactus-test-plugin-ledger-connector-ethereum`
(based on similar ones for quorum connector.)
- Add new connector to CI.
- Add `web3*` 4.1.1 dependencies to root `package.json` because they are already
required in a root level (by `typings/web3js-quorum`). Ideally this could be put into
another package (quorum connector?) and have the dependencies there, but for now I think
it's important to be explicit about it since it's easy to mess up
if wrong web3js library is hoisted up from any monorepo package.
- Sort main `package.json`
- Remove tap test scripts from the root `package.json` - they don't use `.taprc` and
cause bunch of errors when they try to execute jest tests.
This is confusing for the users because of all false negative errors printed.
- Reorganize jest config and taprc to keep tests from quorum and ethereum conenctors grouped.
Peter's tweaks:
1. Switched the root's web3 dependencies from 1.5.2 to 4.1.1 because
in the meantime we've done a few upgrades (plus the old versions come
with CVEs)
2. There is no more hoisting, it's been completely disabled, so we should
not have any more issues regarding that. It is still true however, that
the root folder has our handwritten type definitions which do import
web3 packages and therefore the root should declare web3 as a dependency.
3. Once https://github.com/hyperledger/cacti/issues/2648 has been resolved
we can remove both the root dependency declarations of web3 and the
typings that necessitate them to begin with.
Closes: hyperledger-cacti#2534
