Types

type ChainConfig

type ChainConfig struct {
	Config  []byte
	Upgrade []byte
}

ChainConfig is configuration settings for the current execution. [Config] is the user-provided config blob for the chain. [Upgrade] is a chain-specific blob for coordinating upgrades.

type ChainParameters

type ChainParameters struct {
	ID          ids.ID   // The ID of the chain being created
	SubnetID    ids.ID   // ID of the subnet that validates this chain
	GenesisData []byte   // The genesis data of this chain's ledger
	VMAlias     string   // The ID of the vm this chain is running
	FxAliases   []string // The IDs of the feature extensions this chain is running

	CustomBeacons validators.Set // Should only be set if the default beacons can't be used.
}

ChainParameters defines the chain being created

type Manager

type Manager interface {
	// Return the router this Manager is using to route consensus messages to chains
	Router() router.Router

	// Create a chain in the future
	CreateChain(ChainParameters)

	// Create a chain now
	ForceCreateChain(ChainParameters)

	// Add a registrant [r]. Every time a chain is
	// created, [r].RegisterChain([new chain]) is called.
	AddRegistrant(Registrant)

	// Given an alias, return the ID of the chain associated with that alias
	Lookup(string) (ids.ID, error)

	// Given an alias, return the ID of the VM associated with that alias
	LookupVM(string) (ids.ID, error)

	// Return the aliases associated with a chain
	Aliases(ids.ID) []string

	// Add an alias to a chain
	Alias(ids.ID, string) error

	// Returns the ID of the subnet that is validating the provided chain
	SubnetID(chainID ids.ID) (ids.ID, error)

	// Returns true iff the chain with the given ID exists and is finished bootstrapping
	IsBootstrapped(ids.ID) bool

	Shutdown()
}

Manager manages the chains running on this node. It can:

• Create a chain
• Add a registrant. When a chain is created, each registrant calls RegisterChain with the new chain as the argument.
• Get the aliases associated with a given chain.
• Get the ID of the chain associated with a given alias.

func New

func New(config *ManagerConfig) Manager

New returns a new Manager

}

type MockManager

type MockManager struct{}

MockManager implements Manager but does nothing. Always returns nil error. To be used only in tests

func (MockManager) AddRegistrant

func (mm MockManager) AddRegistrant(Registrant)

func (MockManager) Alias

func (mm MockManager) Alias(ids.ID, string) error

func (MockManager) Aliases

func (mm MockManager) Aliases(ids.ID) []string

func (MockManager) CreateChain

func (mm MockManager) CreateChain(ChainParameters)

func (MockManager) ForceCreateChain

func (mm MockManager) ForceCreateChain(ChainParameters)

func (MockManager) IsBootstrapped

func (mm MockManager) IsBootstrapped(ids.ID) bool

func (MockManager) Lookup

func (mm MockManager) Lookup(s string) (ids.ID, error)

func (MockManager) LookupVM

func (mm MockManager) LookupVM(s string) (ids.ID, error)

func (MockManager) Router

func (mm MockManager) Router() router.Router

func (MockManager) Shutdown

func (mm MockManager) Shutdown()

func (MockManager) SubnetID

func (mm MockManager) SubnetID(ids.ID) (ids.ID, error)

type Registrant

type Registrant interface {
	// Called when the chain described by [ctx] and [engine] is created
	// This function is called before the chain starts processing messages
	// [engine] should be an avalanche.Engine or snowman.Engine
	RegisterChain(name string, ctx *snow.Context, engine common.Engine)
}

Registrant can register the existence of a chain

type Subnet

type Subnet interface {
	common.Subnet
	// contains filtered or unexported methods
}

Subnet keeps track of the currently bootstrapping chains in a subnet. If no chains in the subnet are currently bootstrapping, the subnet is considered bootstrapped.
