Description

We want to have finer control over the initialization of the network controller inside the metamask controller. For additional background and reasoning, see the tickets linked below.

This PR also depends on 2 PRs (#274 on the smart transactions controller repo and #4004 on the core repo) being merged and the corresponding packages released first. Once that is done, I will update the dependencies on this PR.

Related issues

Fixes: #2114 on the planning repo (For more details see also #881)

See: PR #274 on the smart transactions controller repo and PR #4004 on the core repo.

Manual testing steps

  • Checkout develop.
  • Run yarn && yarn dist.
  • When onboarding the extension, you should see the requests on the background console.
  • Checkout this branch.
  • Clone the SmartTransactionController repository.
  • Checkout this PR and build.
  • Clone the Core repository.
  • Checkout this PR and build.
  • Add these two lines to the resolutions section of the package.json.
    "@metamask/transaction-controller@^23.1.0": "file:../core/packages/transaction-controller",
    "@metamask/smart-transactions-controller@^6.2.2": "file:../smart-transactions-controller",
  • You may need to run yarn && yarn lavamoat:auto.
  • Run yarn && yarn dist.
  • No requests to the RPC node will be made before the advanced settings during onboarding.

fix: Prevent rpc request before onboarding is completed (#23622)
c947630 
## **Description**

The temporary solution is to:

- Prevent two network controller requests by:
- Patch the network controller so that the lookup on
initializeProvidercan be avoided.
- Call that initializeProvider with the lookup: false argument right
after the network controller is constructed
- Call await this.networkController.lookupNetwork(); at the end of the
metamask controller if the onboarding has been completed
- Call await this.networkController.lookupNetwork(); once the onboarding
complete state changes
- Prevent one accounts tracker request by:
- Moving the blockTracker event listener from the constructor of the
controller to the start function

The long term solution will be
[#23005](#23005)
(currently blocked by [#4004 on
core](MetaMask/core#4004).


## **Related issues**

Fixes: MetaMask/MetaMask-planning#881

## **Manual testing steps**

1. Add `await new Promise((resolve) => setTimeout(resolve, 10000));` to
the top of initialize on the background.js file
2. Build the app
3. Load extension and immediately open the network tab on the background
console before the app initializes
4. No requests should happen
