params

Params Module

Table of Contents

Overview

Package params provides a globally available parameter store.

There are two main types, Keeper and Subspace. Subspace is an isolated namespace for a paramstore, where keys are prefixed by preconfigured spacename. Keeper has a permission to access all existing spaces. Subspace can be used by the individual keepers, who needs a private parameter store that the other keeper cannot modify.

Usage

Basic Usage

First, declare parameter space and parameter keys for the module. Then include params.Subspace in the keeper. Since we prefix the keys with the spacename, it is recommended to use the same name with the module's.

	const (
		DefaultParamspace = "mymodule"
	)

	const (
		KeyParameter1 = "myparameter1"
		KeyParameter2 = "myparameter2"
	)

	type Keeper struct {
		cdc *codec.Codec
		key sdk.StoreKey

		ps params.Subspace
	}

	func ParamKeyTable() params.KeyTable {
		return params.NewKeyTable(
			KeyParameter1, MyStruct{},
			KeyParameter2, MyStruct{},
		)
	}

	func NewKeeper(cdc *codec.Codec, key sdk.StoreKey, ps params.Subspace) Keeper {
		return Keeper {
			cdc: cdc,
			key: key,
			ps: ps.WithKeyTable(ParamKeyTable()),
		}
	}

Pass a params.Subspace to NewKeeper with DefaultParamspace (or another)

    app.myKeeper = mymodule.NewKeeper(app.paramStore.SubStore(mymodule.DefaultParamspace))

Now we can access to the paramstore using Paramstore Keys

	var param MyStruct
	k.ps.Get(ctx, KeyParameter1, &param)
	k.ps.Set(ctx, KeyParameter2, param)

If you want to store an unknown number of parameters, or want to store a mapping, you can use subkeys. Subkeys can be used with a main key, where the subkeys are inheriting the key properties.

	func ParamKeyTable() params.KeyTable {
		return params.NewKeyTable(
			KeyParamMain, MyStruct{},
		)
	}


	func (k Keeper) GetDynamicParameter(ctx sdk.Context, subkey []byte) (res MyStruct) {
		k.ps.GetWithSubkey(ctx, KeyParamMain, subkey, &res)
	}

Genesis Usage

Declare a struct for parameters and make it implement params.ParamSet. It will then be able to be passed to SetParamSet.

	type MyParams struct {
		Parameter1 uint64
		Parameter2 string
	}

	// Implements params.ParamSet
	// KeyValuePairs must return the list of (ParamKey, PointerToTheField)
	func (p *MyParams) KeyValuePairs() params.KeyValuePairs {
		return params.KeyFieldPairs {
			{KeyParameter1, &p.Parameter1},
			{KeyParameter2, &p.Parameter2},
		}
	}

	func InitGenesis(ctx sdk.Context, k Keeper, data GenesisState) {
		k.ps.SetParamSet(ctx, &data.params)
	}

The method is pointer receiver because there could be a case that we read from the store and set the result to the struct.

Master Keeper Usage

Keepers that require master permission to the paramstore, such as gov, can take params.Keeper itself to access all subspace(using GetSubspace)

	type MasterKeeper struct {
		pk params.Keeper
	}

	func (k MasterKeeper) SetParam(ctx sdk.Context, space string, key string, param interface{}) {
		space, ok := k.pk.GetSubspace(space)
		if !ok {
			return
		}
		space.Set(ctx, key, param)
	}
