//! Primitive traits for providing election functionality.
//!
//! This crate provides two traits that could interact to enable extensible election functionality
//! within FRAME pallets.
//!
//! Something that will provide the functionality of election will implement [`ElectionProvider`],
//! whilst needing an associated [`ElectionProvider::DataProvider`], which needs to be fulfilled by
//! an entity implementing [`ElectionDataProvider`]. Most often, *the data provider is* the receiver
//! of the election, resulting in a diagram as below:
//!
//! ```ignore
//! ElectionDataProvider
//! <------------------------------------------+
//! | |
//! v |
//! +-----+----+ +------+---+
//! | | | |
//! pallet-do-election | | | | pallet-needs-election
//! | | | |
//! | | | |
//! +-----+----+ +------+---+
//! | ^
//! | |
//! +------------------------------------------+
//! ElectionProvider
//! ```
//!
//! > It could also be possible that a third party pallet (C), provides the data of election to an
//! > election provider (B), which then passes the election result to another pallet (A).
//!
//! ## Election Types
//!
//! Typically, two types of elections exist:
//!
//! 1. **Stateless**: Election data is provided, and the election result is immediately ready.
//! 2. **Stateful**: Election data is is queried ahead of time, and the election result might be
//! ready some number of blocks in the future.
//!
//! To accommodate both type of elections in one trait, the traits lean toward **stateful
//! election**, as it is more general than the stateless. This is why [`ElectionProvider::elect`]
//! has no parameters. All value and type parameter must be provided by the [`ElectionDataProvider`]
//! trait, even if the election happens immediately.
//!
//! ## Election Data
//!
//! The data associated with an election, essentially what the [`ElectionDataProvider`] must convey
//! is as follows:
//!
//! 1. A list of voters, with their stake.
//! 2. A list of targets (i.e. _candidates_).
//! 3. A number of desired targets to be elected (i.e. _winners_)
//!
//! In addition to that, the [`ElectionDataProvider`] must also hint [`ElectionProvider`] at when
//! the next election might happen ([`ElectionDataProvider::next_election_prediction`]). A stateless
//! election provider would probably ignore this. A stateful election provider can use this to
//! prepare the election result in advance.
//!
//! Nonetheless, an [`ElectionProvider`] shan't rely on this and should preferably provide some
//! means of fallback election as well, in case the `elect` was called immaturely early.
//!
//! ## Example
//!
//! ```rust
//! # use frame_election_provider_support::{*, data_provider};
//! # use sp_npos_elections::{Support, Assignment};
//!
//! type AccountId = u64;
//! type Balance = u64;
//! type BlockNumber = u32;
//!
//! mod data_provider_mod {
//! use super::*;
//!
//! pub trait Config: Sized {
//! type ElectionProvider: ElectionProvider<
//! AccountId,
//! BlockNumber,
//! DataProvider = Module<Self>,
//! >;
//! }
//!
//! pub struct Module<T: Config>(std::marker::PhantomData<T>);
//!
//! impl<T: Config> ElectionDataProvider<AccountId, BlockNumber> for Module<T> {
//! const MAXIMUM_VOTES_PER_VOTER: u32 = 1;
//! fn desired_targets() -> data_provider::Result<u32> {
//! Ok(1)
//! }
//! fn voters(maybe_max_len: Option<usize>)
//! -> data_provider::Result<Vec<(AccountId, VoteWeight, Vec<AccountId>)>>
//! {
//! Ok(Default::default())
//! }
//! fn targets(maybe_max_len: Option<usize>) -> data_provider::Result<Vec<AccountId>> {
//! Ok(vec![10, 20, 30])
//! }
//! fn next_election_prediction(now: BlockNumber) -> BlockNumber {
//! 0
//! }
//! }
//! }
//!
//!
//! mod generic_election_provider {
//! use super::*;
//!
//! pub struct GenericElectionProvider<T: Config>(std::marker::PhantomData<T>);
//!
//! pub trait Config {
//! type DataProvider: ElectionDataProvider<AccountId, BlockNumber>;
//! }
//!
//! impl<T: Config> ElectionProvider<AccountId, BlockNumber> for GenericElectionProvider<T> {
//! type Error = &'static str;
//! type DataProvider = T::DataProvider;
//!
//! fn elect() -> Result<Supports<AccountId>, Self::Error> {
//! Self::DataProvider::targets(None)
//! .map_err(|_| "failed to elect")
//! .map(|t| vec![(t[0], Support::default())])
//! }
//! }
//! }
//!
//! mod runtime {
//! use super::generic_election_provider;
//! use super::data_provider_mod;
//! use super::AccountId;
//!
//! struct Runtime;
//! impl generic_election_provider::Config for Runtime {
//! type DataProvider = data_provider_mod::Module<Runtime>;
//! }

//! type ElectionProvider = generic_election_provider::GenericElectionProvider<Runtime>;
