Snapshot Score API

The Score API is a simple RESTful API that calculates scores for various strategies based on the Snapshot protocol. This README outlines the functionality provided by the API and how to use it without any specific code examples.

We recommend using the snapshot.js library for obtaining voting power and doing validation, as it provides a simple and convenient way to interact with the Snapshot Score API. The snapshot.js library offers the following methods:

The URL for score api is https://score.snapshot.org

API Endpoints

1. POST /

The base endpoint serves as the entry point for various methods:

  • get_vp: Calculate voting power for a given address using strategies.
  • validate: Validate a given address using validation strategies.

2. GET /api

This endpoint returns the current version of the Snapshot Score API and block numbers for different networks.

Send a GET request to this endpoint to receive a JSON object containing the version and block_num properties.

3. GET /api/strategies

This endpoint returns a list of available strategies for calculating voting power.

Send a GET request to this endpoint to receive a JSON object containing key-value pairs representing the strategies and their respective information.

4. GET /api/validations

This endpoint returns a list of available validation strategies for address validation.

Send a GET request to this endpoint to receive a JSON object containing key-value pairs representing the validation strategies and their respective information.

5. POST /api/scores

This endpoint calculates scores for a given set of strategies and addresses.

To use this endpoint, send a POST request with a JSON body containing the params object. The params object should include:

  • space: The id of the space to calculate scores for.
  • network: The network ID to use for calculations.
  • snapshot: A specific block number or 'latest' for the latest block.
  • addresses: An array of addresses for which the scores will be calculated.
  • strategies: An array of strategy objects, each containing a name and params property.
  • force: A boolean indicating whether to force the calculation of scores despite potential restrictions.

Running the API locally with Docker

You can run the API locally using Docker. To do so, follow these steps:

  1. Clone the repository and cd into it.
  2. Copy the .env.example file to .env and set necessary values.
  3. Run docker-compose up to start the API.

Running load tests with Artillery

You can run load tests on the API using Artillery. To do so, follow these steps:

  1. Clone the repository and cd into it.
  2. Copy the .env.example file to .env and set necessary values.
  3. Run npm install to install dependencies.
  4. Install Artillery globally by running npm install -g artillery.
  5. Run artillery run -t <your server url> ./test/load/<test-file>.yml to run the load test.` to run the load test.
