IPoll

Poll interface

numSignUpsAndMessages

function numSignUpsAndMessages() external view returns (uint256 numSignups, uint256 numMsgs)

The number of messages which have been processed and the number of signups

Return Values

Name	Type	Description
numSignups	uint256	The number of signups
numMsgs	uint256	The number of messages sent by voters

publishMessage

function publishMessage(struct DomainObjs.Message _message, struct DomainObjs.PubKey _encPubKey) external

Allows anyone to publish a message (an encrypted command and signature). This function also enqueues the message.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
_message	struct DomainObjs.Message	The message to publish
_encPubKey	struct DomainObjs.PubKey	An epheremal public key which can be combined with the coordinator's private key to generate an ECDH shared key with which to encrypt the message.

mergeMaciState

function mergeMaciState() external

The second step of merging the MACI state AccQueue. This allows the ProcessMessages circuit to access the latest state tree and ballots via currentSbCommitment.

mergeMessageAqSubRoots

function mergeMessageAqSubRoots(uint256 _numSrQueueOps) external

The first step in merging the message AccQueue so that the ProcessMessages circuit can access the message root.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
_numSrQueueOps	uint256	The number of subroot queue operations to perform

mergeMessageAq

function mergeMessageAq() external

The second step in merging the message AccQueue so that the ProcessMessages circuit can access the message root.

getDeployTimeAndDuration

function getDeployTimeAndDuration() external view returns (uint256 _deployTime, uint256 _duration)

Returns the Poll's deploy time and duration

Return Values

Name	Type	Description
_deployTime	uint256	The deployment timestamp
_duration	uint256	The duration of the poll

stateMerged

function stateMerged() external view returns (bool)

Get the result of whether the MACI contract's stateAq has been merged by this contract

Return Values

Name	Type	Description
[0]	bool	Whether the MACI contract's stateAq has been merged by this contract

treeDepths

function treeDepths() external view returns (uint8 intStateTreeDepth, uint8 messageTreeSubDepth, uint8 messageTreeDepth, uint8 voteOptionTreeDepth)

Get the depths of the merkle trees

Return Values

Name	Type	Description
intStateTreeDepth	uint8	The depth of the state tree
messageTreeSubDepth	uint8	The subdepth of the message tree
messageTreeDepth	uint8	The depth of the message tree
voteOptionTreeDepth	uint8	The subdepth of the vote option tree

maxValues

function maxValues() external view returns (uint256 maxMessages, uint256 maxVoteOptions)

Get the max values for the poll

Return Values

Name	Type	Description
maxMessages	uint256	The maximum number of messages
maxVoteOptions	uint256	The maximum number of vote options

extContracts

function extContracts() external view returns (contract IMACI maci, contract AccQueue messageAq)

Get the external contracts

Return Values

Name	Type	Description
maci	contract IMACI	The IMACI contract
messageAq	contract AccQueue	The AccQueue contract

coordinatorPubKeyHash

function coordinatorPubKeyHash() external view returns (uint256 _coordinatorPubKeyHash)

Get the hash of coordinator's public key

Return Values

Name	Type	Description
_coordinatorPubKeyHash	uint256	the hash of coordinator's public key

currentSbCommitment

function currentSbCommitment() external view returns (uint256)

Get the commitment to the state leaves and the ballots. This is hash3(stateRoot, ballotRoot, salt). Its initial value should be hash(maciStateRootSnapshot, emptyBallotRoot, 0) Each successful invocation of processMessages() should use a different salt to update this value, so that an external observer cannot tell in the case that none of the messages are valid.

Return Values

Name	Type	Description
[0]	uint256	The commitment to the state leaves and the ballots

actualStateTreeDepth

function actualStateTreeDepth() external view returns (uint8)

Get the dynamic depth of the state tree at the time of poll finalization (based on the number of leaves inserted)
