Block Workflow

The following workflows are supported for blocks.

1. Block Building

Incremental creation

  1. Initialize Block - Header.from_parent(...):
    • coinbase
    • parent_hash
    • difficulty
    • block_number
    • gas_limit
    • timestamp
  2. Apply Transaction(s) - Block.apply_transaction(...):
  3. Mine Block - Block.mine(...):
    • uncles_hash
    • state_root
    • transaction_root
    • receipts_root
    • bloom
    • gas_used
    • extra_data
    • mix_hash
    • nonce

2. Block Ingestion

(This is actually just a special case of use case #1.)

Full ingestion of a complete block.
