`ergo-node-interface` can't be used in async contexts #13

Closed ross-weir closed 11 months ago

ross-weir commented 12 months ago

The library https://github.com/ergoplatform/ergo-node-interface-rust can't be used in async contexts which basically means we can't use it here. It likely needs a total re-write/re-factor to support both sync and async contexts: https://github.com/ergoplatform/ergo-node-interface-rust/issues/19

Options:

Try generate a client with openapi-generator or
- https://github.com/oxidecomputer/progenitor
- https://github.com/paperclip-rs/paperclip
Manually start writing a new node api client
Seems like it can also be worked around by spawning a new thread for each http request: https://stackoverflow.com/a/62536772 - not ideal but could be an easy unblocker until better solution implemented
