NEAR Firehose Indexer

Near Firehose Indexer is an application that leverages Near Indexer's micro-framework to output protobuf files

Requirements

Before you proceed, make sure you have the following software installed:

• rustup or Rust version that is mentioned in rust-toolchain file in the root of nearcore project.

Configuring NEAR Firehose Indexer

To run the NEAR Firehose Indexer connected to a network we need to have configs and keys prepopulated. The configs and keys must be placed in a home directory, which has the following structure:

homedir ├── config.json required - node configuration file ├── genesis.json required - node genesis configuration file ├── node_key.json required - node node-key file ├── data │ └── ... optional - you could extra your snapshot here to start the process quicker

Localnet

To generate configs for localnet do the following:

$ git clone [email protected]:nearprotocol/nearcore.git
$ cd nearcore/tools/indexer/example
$ cargo run --release -- --home-dir ~/.near/localnet init

Testnet / Betanet

To generate configs for testnet / betanet do the following

$ cargo run --release -- --home-dir ~/.near/testnet init --chain-id testnet --download

The above code will download the official genesis config and generate necessary configs. You can replace testnet in the command above to different network ID betanet.

To run the NEAR Indexer connected to testnet or betanet we need to have configs and keys prepopulated, you can get them with the NEAR Indexer Example like above with a little change. Follow the instructions below to run non-validating node (leaving account ID empty).

$ cargo run --release -- --home-dir ~/.near/testnet init --chain-id testnet --download

$ git clone [email protected]:nearprotocol/nearcore.git
$ cd nearcore/tools/indexer/example
$ cargo run --release -- --home-dir ~/.near/localnet init

$ cargo run --release -- --home-dir ~/.near/localnet init

near-firehose-indexer --home-dir ./near-home-mainnet run

Protobuf Definitions

The protobuf definitions in this project requires you to have

• https://github.com/streamingfast/proto
• https://github.com/streamingfast/proto-near

Cloned as sibling of this project. So that ultimately, all three projects are part of parent folder all at the same depth.

To re-generate the Rust bindings of the definitions, use:

cargo run -p firehose-pb
