DataMarketFactory Contract

[rbharath]

The DataMarketFactory.sol contract will be responsible for creaking new data markets and will store a list of available data markets.

• DataMarketFactory.create_data_market(): Constructs and launches a new data market. This is the only public way to create a new data market. There are a number of arguments needed in this constructor.
  • Each data market has an associated token with it. create_data_market() should pass in necessary information to initialize this token. It might make sense to pass in a list of [address_1: allocation_1,...,address_n:allocation_n] of initial token allocations to create_data_market(). The Market token would be initialized with this initial spread of market token.
  • T_council: Council membership threshold fraction Councils for Data Markets #28
  • T_util: Number of tokens minted when a listing is queried Minting and Burning Specification #31
  • T_submit: Number of tokens minted when a new listing is listed Minting and Burning Specification #31
• DataMarketFactory.get_list_of_data_markets(): Returns a list of available data markets.

Edit: Added additional information about token initialization and council membership above.

Making a note that the DataMarketFactory will be responsible for creating the initial cointable for a new market.
