Function pallet_elections_phragmen::pallet::dispatchables::submit_candidacy

pub fn submit_candidacy<T: Config>(candidate_count: u32)

Submit oneself for candidacy. A fixed amount of deposit is recorded.

All candidates are wiped at the end of the term. They either become a member/runner-up, or leave the system while their deposit is slashed.

The dispatch origin of this call must be signed.

Warning

Even if a candidate ends up being a member, they must call Call::renounce_candidacy to get their deposit back. Losing the spot in an election will always lead to a slash.

The number of current candidates must be provided as witness data.

Complexity

O(C + log(C)) where C is candidate_count.

Warning: Doc-Only

This function is an automatically generated, and is doc-only, uncallable stub. See the real version in Pallet::submit_candidacy.
