This PR showcases the implementation of additional linter rules. I've updated the golangci-lint GitHub Actions to the latest available version. This update makes sure that the tool works the same way locally - assuming being updated regularly - and with the GitHub Actions.
I've also taken care of keeping all the GitHub Actions up to date, which helps our code stay current. But there's one part, goreleaser that's a bit tricky to test on our computers. So, it's important to take a close look at that.
To make it easier to understand what I've done, I've made separate changes for each thing that the new linters found. This should help the people reviewing the changes see what's going on more clearly. Some of the changes might not be obvious at first glance.
Things to consider for the future
CI runs on Ubuntu so the static analysis only happens for Linux. Consider running it for the rest: Darwin, Windows
Replace Peer.Key as internal identifier with a randomly generated Peer.ID
in the Management service.
Every group now references peers by ID instead of a public key.
Every route now references peers by ID instead of a public key.
FileStore does store.json file migration on startup by generating Peer.ID and replacing
all Peer.Key identifier references .
Updated tests, API, and account manager methods
Sync routes to peers in the distribution groups
Added store upgrade by adding the All group to routes that don't have them
This PR simplifies Store and FileStore
by keeping just the Get and Save account methods.
The AccountManager operates mostly around
a single account, so it makes sense to fetch
the whole account object from the store.
