The runtime now can provide a number of predefined presets of `RuntimeGenesisConfig` struct. This presets are intended to be used in different deployments, e.g.: `local`, `staging`, etc, and should be included into the corresponding chain-specs. Having `GenesisConfig` presets in runtime allows to fully decouple node from runtime types (the problem is described in #1984). **Summary of changes:** - The `GenesisBuilder` API was adjusted to enable this functionality (and provide better naming - #150): ```rust fn preset_names() -> Vec<PresetId>; fn get_preset(id: Option<PresetId>) -> Option<serde_json::Value>; //`None` means default fn build_state(value: serde_json::Value); pub struct PresetId(Vec<u8>); ``` - **Breaking change**: Old `create_default_config` method was removed, `build_config` was renamed to `build_state`. As a consequence a node won't be able to interact with genesis config for older runtimes. The cleanup was made for sake of API simplicity. Also IMO maintaining compatibility with old API is not so crucial. - Reference implementation was provided for `substrate-test-runtime` and `rococo` runtimes. For rococo new [`genesis_configs_presets`](https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/blob/3b41d66b97c5ff0ec4a1989da5ffd8b9f3f588e3/polkadot/runtime/rococo/src/genesis_config_presets.rs#L530) module was added and is used in `GenesisBuilder` [_presets-related_](https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/blob/3b41d66b97c5ff0ec4a1989da5ffd8b9f3f588e3/polkadot/runtime/rococo/src/lib.rs#L2462-L2485) methods. - The `chain-spec-builder` util was also improved and allows to ([_doc_](https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/blob/3b41d66b97c5ff0ec4a1989da5ffd8b9f3f588e3/substrate/bin/utils/chain-spec-builder/src/lib.rs#L19)): - list presets provided by given runtime (`list-presets`), - display preset or default config provided by the runtime (`display-preset`), - build chain-spec using named preset (`create ... named-preset`), - The `ChainSpecBuilder` is extended with [`with_genesis_config_preset_name`](https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/blob/3b41d66b97c5ff0ec4a1989da5ffd8b9f3f588e3/substrate/client/chain-spec/src/chain_spec.rs#L447) method which allows to build chain-spec using named preset provided by the runtime.

Substrate
Substrate is a next-generation framework for blockchain innovation 🚀.
Getting Started
Head to docs.substrate.io and follow the installation
instructions. Then try out one of the tutorials. Refer to the Docker
instructions to quickly run Substrate, Substrate Node Template, Subkey, or to build a chain spec.

sp-*), Frame (frame-*) and the pallets (pallets-*), binaries (/bin) and all other utilities are licensed under Apache 2.0. - Substrate Client (/client/*/sc-*) is licensed under GPL v3.0 with a classpath linking exception.
The reason for the split-licensing is to ensure that for the vast majority of teams using Substrate to create feature-chains, then all changes can be made entirely in Apache2-licensed code, allowing teams full freedom over what and how they release and giving licensing clarity to commercial teams.
In the interests of the community, we require any deeper improvements made to Substrate's core logic (e.g. Substrate's internal consensus, crypto or database code) to be contributed back so everyone can benefit.
