Constants

const AtxsPerBlockLimit = 100

AtxsPerBlockLimit indicates the maximum number of atxs a block can reference

Types

type BlockBuilder

type BlockBuilder struct {
	log.Log

	AtxDb           atxDb
	TransactionPool txPool
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

BlockBuilder is the struct that orchestrates the building of blocks, it is responsible for receiving hare results. referencing txs and atxs from mem pool and referencing them in the created block it is also responsible for listening to the clock and querying when a block should be created according to the block oracle

func NewBlockBuilder

func NewBlockBuilder(config Config, sgn signer, net p2p.Service, beginRoundEvent chan types.LayerID, weakCoin weakCoinProvider, orph meshProvider, hare hareResultProvider, blockOracle blockOracle, syncer syncer, projector projector, txPool txPool, atxDB atxDb, lg log.Log) *BlockBuilder

NewBlockBuilder creates a struct of block builder type.

func (*BlockBuilder) Close

func (t *BlockBuilder) Close() error

Close stops listeners and stops trying to create block in layers

func (*BlockBuilder) Start

func (t *BlockBuilder) Start(ctx context.Context) error

Start starts the process of creating a block, it listens for txs and atxs received by gossip, and starts querying block oracle when it should create a block. This function returns an error if Start was already called once

type Config

type Config struct {
	MinerID        types.NodeID
	Hdist          int
	AtxsPerBlock   int
	LayersPerEpoch uint16
	TxsPerBlock    int
}

Config is the block builders configuration struct
