While adding the multiuser auth related stuff, RPC_AUTH_EVENT was added, simply to not touch how RPC_ERROR was handled. It was created to allow recreating the exception on the client side. Instead of adding another rpc event type, extend RPC_ERROR to send the proper data to recreate the exception on the client side.
Auto-connecting on start of the gtk ui is now fully working.
Auto-staring localhost if needed is now also working.
Authentication failures now get passed correctly to the client implementation which will allow the user to enter username and/or password to complete authentication.
It's now possible to shutdown the daemon from the connection manager even if not on localhost, it just needs all required information to be present on the liststore.
All test were adapted, and some more were added to comply with the new multiuser support in deluge.
Regarding #1814, host entries in the Connection Manager UI are now migrated from the old format were automatic localhost logins were possible, which no longer is.
Account management is now implemented for the GTK UI. Some changes to the core were required since the clients need to know which authentication levels exist, and, to expose account creation, update, and removal to the clients. The best effort is done to try not to compromise the auth file.
Now, calling connect on client has two behaviours, if username/password is passed the client connects, authenticates and returns daemon info, if username/password is not passed, only the daemon info is returned. This might change a bit later on though.
Remove old cache decorator classes from client.py.
Raise deluge.error.NoCoreError when attempting to use a client function
when not connected to a daemon.
