Story Form

As a Block Node Developer/User
I want to be sure that I am provided blocks from provider with given priority criteria
So that I will not be receiving blocks from providers I do not want

Technical Notes

  • looking at the Files Historic Plugin
  • based on this comment thread we see that a check for priority on a notification may not be sufficient all of the times
  • we need to make sure that when we request blocks later on, we are sure that all providers that issue the accessors will match the priority criteria
    • reasoning here is that we do not want generally to receive blocks from providers that do not match the priority criteria
    • an edge case here will be that we might not be able to receive a block that we are waiting on, hence stalling/halting zipping indefinitely
  • let's explore this concern and potentially take some action if it is necessary
  • we should also consider this concern generally for all other plugins
