Synopsis

PreBlocker is optional method module developers can implement in their module. They will be triggered before BeginBlock.

Pre-requisite Readings

PreBlocker​

There are two semantics around the new lifecycle method:

  • It runs before the BeginBlocker of all modules
  • It can modify consensus parameters in storage, and signal the caller through the return value.

Modules are required to get the consensus params from the consensus module. Consensus params located in sdk.Context were deprecated and should be treated as unsafe. sdk.Context is deprecated due to it being a global state within the entire state machine, it has been replaced with appmodule.Environment.
