Code Proposals

Archethic Blockchain is using code proposals to have a way to upgrade current blockchain code in a automated and tested way.

A pending code proposal contains the following fields:

  • Address: Address of the code proposal
  • Approvals: Approvals signed by the users
  • Changes: Diff between current version and code proposal
  • Description: Description of the code proposal
  • Files: Files changed in code proposal
  • Previous Public Key
  • Timestamp
  • Version: target version

For a code proposal to be valid it needs to validate 3 conditions:

  • The version in code proposal needs to be a successor version of the current one
  • The changes need to contain a valid appup file
  • the code proposal is applicable on the current branch

Code proposals can be visualised in the governance section of the UI.

when a code proposal get enough approvals from members of technical council (more than the threshhold), it automatically launchs the CI/CD process.
