Package indexer defines Tendermint's block and transaction event indexing logic.
|
||||
|
||||
Tendermint supports two primary means of block and transaction event indexing:
|
||||
|
||||
1. A key-value sink via an embedded database with a proprietary query language.
|
||||
2. A Postgres-based sink.
|
||||
|
||||
An ABCI application can emit events during block and transaction execution in the form
|
||||
|
||||
<abci.Event.Type>.<abci.EventAttributeKey>=<abci.EventAttributeValue>
|
||||
|
||||
for example "transfer.amount=10000".
|
||||
|
||||
An operator can enable one or both of the supported indexing sinks via the
|
||||
'tx-index.indexer' Tendermint configuration.
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
[tx-index]
|
||||
indexer = ["kv", "psql"]
|
||||
|
||||
If an operator wants to completely disable indexing, they may simply just provide
|
||||
the "null" sink option in the configuration. All other sinks will be ignored if
|
||||
"null" is provided.
|
||||
|
||||
If indexing is enabled, the indexer.Service will iterate over all enabled sinks
|
||||
and invoke block and transaction indexing via the appropriate IndexBlockEvents
|
||||
and IndexTxEvents methods.
|
||||
|
||||
Note, the "kv" sink is considered deprecated and its query functionality is very
|
||||
limited, but does allow users to directly query for block and transaction events
|
||||
against Tendermint's RPC. Instead, operators are encouraged to use the "psql"
|
||||
indexing sink when more complex queries are required and for reliability purposes
|
||||
as PostgreSQL can scale.
|
||||
|
||||
Prior to starting Tendermint with the "psql" indexing sink enabled, operators
|
||||
must ensure the following:
|
||||
|
||||
1. The "psql" indexing sink is provided in Tendermint's configuration.
|
||||
2. A 'tx-index.psql-conn' value is provided that contains the PostgreSQL connection URI.
|
||||
3. The block and transaction event schemas have been created in the PostgreSQL database.
|
||||
|
||||
Tendermint provides the block and transaction event schemas in the following
|
||||
path: state/indexer/sink/psql/schema.sql
|
||||
|
||||
To create the schema in a PostgreSQL database, perform the schema query
|
||||
manually or invoke schema creation via the CLI:
|
||||
|
||||
$ psql <flags> -f state/indexer/sink/psql/schema.sql
|
||||
|
||||
The "psql" indexing sink prohibits queries via RPC. When using a PostgreSQL sink,
|
||||
queries can and should be made directly against the database using SQL.
|
||||
|
||||
The following are some example SQL queries against the database schema:
|
||||
|
||||
* Query for all transaction events for a given transaction hash:
|
||||
|
||||
SELECT * FROM tx_events WHERE hash = '3E7D1F...';
|
||||
|
||||
* Query for all transaction events for a given block height:
|
||||
|
||||
SELECT * FROM tx_events WHERE height = 25;
|
||||
|
||||
* Query for transaction events that have a given type (i.e. value wildcard):
|
||||
|
||||
SELECT * FROM tx_events WHERE key LIKE '%transfer.recipient%';
|
||||
|
||||
Note that if a complete abci.TxResult is needed, you will need to join "tx_events" with
|
||||
"tx_results" via a foreign key, to obtain contains the raw protobuf-encoded abci.TxResult.
