Overview
We're happy to announce the Boost v1.6.0-rc3 release.
This is a compatibility update for the Lotus v1.20.0 release. You should only upgrade to this release if you are also upgrading Lotus to v1.20.0. See the Boost and Lotus compatibility matrix for up to date information, and to plan your upgrade.
Please make sure to upgrade to test the new features shipped in this release. See our upgrade guide for details.
Boost v1.5.x Adopters
If you have been running the v1.5.x and want to update to this release for lotus compatibility, you can do so as long as you are also upgrading Lotus to v1.20.0. This PR contains the latest 1.5.3 codebase and we will continue to update it with any subsequent releases.
🌟 Highlights
Includes updates previously noted in RC builds of this release
FVM Contract Deal Support
- With the release of FVM, it is now possible for smart contracts to make deal proposals on-chain. This is made possible though the DealProposal FRC.
- DataDAOs, as well as other clients who want to store data on Filecoin, can now deploy a smart contract on the FVM which adheres to the DealProposal FRC, and make deal proposals that are visible to every storage provider running Boost who monitors the chain.
- In order to enable DealProposal FRC, you have to edit your config.toml and enable contract deal monitoring. By default it is disabled. Here is an example configuration:
[ContractDeals]
Enabled = true
AllowlistContracts = []
From = "0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000"
Cancelation of stalled retrievals
Boost now runs a background process that will cancel retrievals that have not been updated in the past 30minutes by default. You can configure this by setting the new DealMaking.StalledRetrievalTimeout property in the Boost config.
The following config will cancel all retrievals that have not changed state, or transferred bytes in the past 10minutes.
[Dealmaking]
...
RetrievalLogDuration = "24h0m0s"
StalledRetrievalTimeout = "10m0s"
Note: For efficiency of the job, Boost leverages the Retrieval Logs DB, so your RetrievalLogDuration should always exceed the StalledRetrievalTimeout.
Updated deal filter
Boost now exposes the following additional deal variables to the external deal filters like CIDgravity. This should allow more extensive filter logic for deal acceptance.
