The DcnRegistry
contract plays a pivotal role in the DCN system, providing a foundation for managing and interacting with DCN names. Built upon the ERC721 standard, the DcnRegistry
treats each name as a unique Non-Fungible Token (NFT) ID, enabling seamless ownership, resolution, and management of DCN names.
Several key functions within the DcnRegistry
are reserved for access exclusively by designated managers, such as the DcnManager
contract. These functions include minting, minting TLDs, claiming expired names, renewing ownership periods, and setting resolvers. This design ensures a controlled and secure environment for critical operations within the DCN ecosystem.
The DcnRegistry
facilitates the association of resolvers with individual names. Managers can utilize dedicated functions to set the resolver for a specific name, providing a seamless mechanism for resolving names to relevant data or resources.
The contract offers a range of informative view
functions, enabling users to access essential details about the DCN system. These functions include querying resolver information, checking the expiration status of a node, and verifying the existence of a specific node.
Names submitted for minting undergo a unique storage mechanism within the DcnRegistry
. Upon submission, the labels of the name (in the format ["myname", "tld"]) are hashed from top to bottom, resulting in a bytes32
variable. This bytes32
value is then converted to a uint256
, serving as the NFT ID uniquely associated with the submitted name. This approach ensures the integrity and uniqueness of each DCN name while facilitating efficient and effective resolution.
