Hooks

This section contains a description of the module's hooks. Hooks are operations that are executed automatically when events are raised.

Staking hooks

The slashing module implements the StakingHooks defined in x/staking and are used as record-keeping of validators information. During the app initialization, these hooks should be registered in the staking module struct.

The following hooks impact the slashing state:

• AfterValidatorBonded creates a ValidatorSigningInfo instance as described in the following section.
• AfterValidatorCreated stores a validator's consensus key.
• AfterValidatorRemoved removes a validator's consensus key.

Validator Bonded

Upon successful first-time bonding of a new validator, we create a new ValidatorSigningInfo structure for the now-bonded validator, which StartHeight of the current block.

Copy onValidatorBonded(address sdk.ValAddress) signingInfo, found = GetValidatorSigningInfo(address) if !found { signingInfo = ValidatorSigningInfo { StartHeight : CurrentHeight, IndexOffset : 0, JailedUntil : time.Unix(0, 0), Tombstone : false, MissedBloskCounter : 0 } setValidatorSigningInfo(signingInfo) } return
