The entry point is `state_transition` which is at the bottom of the file! # # General notes about the code (TODO): # * Weird styling - the sections taken from the spec use python styling while # the others use NEP-1 - helps grepping identifiers in spec # * We mix procedural and functional styles for no good reason, except that the # spec does so also. # * For indices, we get a mix of uint64, ValidatorIndex and int - this is currently # swept under the rug with casts # * Sane error handling is missing in most cases (yay, we'll get the chance to # debate exceptions again!) # When updating the code, add TODO sections to mark where there are clear # improvements to be made - other than that, keep things similar to spec for # now. {.push raises: [Defect].} import tables, chronicles, stew/results, ../extras, ../ssz/merkleization, metrics, datatypes, crypto, digest, helpers, signatures, validator, state_transition_block, state_transition_epoch, ../../nbench/bench_lab # https://github.com/ethereum/eth2.0-metrics/blob/master/metrics.md#additional-metrics declareGauge beacon_current_validators, """Number of status="pending|active|exited|withdrawable" validators in current epoch""" # On epoch transition declareGauge beacon_previous_validators, """Number of status="pending|active|exited|withdrawable" validators in previous epoch""" # On epoch transition func get_epoch_validator_count(state: BeaconState): int64 {.nbench.} = # https://github.com/ethereum/eth2.0-metrics/blob/master/metrics.md#additional-metrics # # This O(n) loop doesn't add to the algorithmic complexity of the epoch # transition -- registry update already does this.
