This crate contains [`GenesisBuilder`], a runtime-api to be implemented by runtimes, in order to //! express their genesis state. //! //! The overall flow of the methods in [`GenesisBuilder`] is as follows: //! //! 1. [`GenesisBuilder::preset_names`]: A runtime exposes a number of different //! `RuntimeGenesisConfig` variations, each of which is called a `preset`, and is identified by a //! [`PresetId`]. All runtimes are encouraged to expose at least [`DEV_RUNTIME_PRESET`] and //! [`LOCAL_TESTNET_RUNTIME_PRESET`] presets for consistency. //! 2. [`GenesisBuilder::get_preset`]: Given a `PresetId`, this the runtime returns the JSON blob //! representation of the `RuntimeGenesisConfig` for that preset. This JSON blob is often mixed //! into the broader `chain_spec`. If `None` is given, [`GenesisBuilder::get_preset`] provides a //! JSON represention of the default `RuntimeGenesisConfig` (by simply serializing the //! `RuntimeGenesisConfig::default()` value into JSON format). This is used as a base for //! applying patches / presets. //! 3. [`GenesisBuilder::build_state`]: Given a JSON blob, this method should deserialize it and //! enact it (using `frame_support::traits::BuildGenesisConfig` for Frame-based runtime), //! essentially writing it to the state. //! //! The first two flows are often done in between a runtime, and the `chain_spec_builder` binary. //! The latter is used when a new blockchain is launched to enact and store the genesis state. See //! the documentation of `chain_spec_builder` for more info. //! //! ## Patching //! //! The runtime may provide a number of partial predefined `RuntimeGenesisConfig` configurations in //! the form of patches which shall be applied on top of the default `RuntimeGenesisConfig`. The //! patch is a JSON blob, which essentially comprises the list of key-value pairs that are to be //! customized in the default runtime genesis config. These predefined configurations are referred //! to as presets. //! //! This allows the runtime to provide a number of predefined configs (e.g. for different testnets //! or development) without necessarily to leak the runtime types outside itself (e.g. node or //! chain-spec related tools). //! //! ## FRAME vs. non-FRAME //! //! For FRAME based runtimes [`GenesisBuilder`] provides means to interact with //! `RuntimeGenesisConfig`. //! //! For non-FRAME runtimes this interface is intended to build genesis state of the runtime basing //! on some input arbitrary bytes array. This documentation uses term `RuntimeGenesisConfig`, which //! for non-FRAME runtimes may be understood as the "runtime-side entity representing initial //! runtime genesis configuration". The representation of the preset is an arbitrary `Vec` and //! does not necessarily have to represent a JSON blob. //! //! ## Genesis Block State //! //! Providing externalities with an empty storage and putting `RuntimeGenesisConfig` into storage //! (by calling `build_state`) allows to construct the raw storage of `RuntimeGenesisConfig` //! which is the foundation for genesis block. extern crate alloc; use alloc::{string::String, vec::Vec}; /// The result type alias, used in build methods. `Err` contains formatted error message. pub type Result = core::result::Result<(), String>; /// The type representing preset ID. pub type PresetId = String; /// The default `development` preset used to communicate with the runtime via /// [`GenesisBuilder`] interface. /// /// (Recommended for testing with a single node, e.g., for benchmarking) pub const DEV_RUNTIME_PRESET: &'static str = "development"; /// The default `local_testnet` preset used to communicate with the runtime via /// [`GenesisBuilder`] interface. /// /// (Recommended for local testing with multiple nodes) pub const LOCAL_TESTNET_RUNTIME_PRESET: &'static str = "local_testnet"; sp_api::decl_runtime_apis! { /// API to interact with `RuntimeGenesisConfig` for the runtime pub trait GenesisBuilder { /// Build `RuntimeGenesisConfig` from a JSON blob not using any defaults and store it in the /// storage. /// /// In the case of a FRAME-based runtime, this function deserializes the full /// `RuntimeGenesisConfig` from the given JSON blob and puts it into the storage. If the /// provided JSON blob is incorrect or incomplete or the deserialization fails, an error /// is returned. /// /// Please note that provided JSON blob must contain all `RuntimeGenesisConfig` fields, no /// defaults will be used. fn build_state(json: Vec) -> Result; /// Returns a JSON blob representation of the built-in `RuntimeGenesisConfig` identified by /// `id`. /// /// If `id` is `None` the function should return JSON blob representation of the default /// `RuntimeGenesisConfig` struct of the runtime.

Returned `Vec` contains bytes of JSON blob (patch) which comprises a list of /// (potentially nested) key-value pairs that are intended for customizing the default /// runtime genesis config. The patch shall be merged (rfc7386) with the JSON representation /// of the default `RuntimeGenesisConfig` to create a comprehensive genesis config that can /// be used in `build_state` method. fn get_preset(id: &Option) -> Option>; /// Returns a list of identifiers for available builtin `RuntimeGenesisConfig` presets. /// /// The presets from the list can be queried with [`GenesisBuilder::get_preset`] method. If /// no named presets are provided by the runtime the list is empty. fn preset_names() -> Vec; } }
