# azimuth-watcher-ts
A comprehensive blockchain indexing and querying system for [Azimuth](https://developers.urbit.org/reference/azimuth/azimuth), Urbit's identity layer on Ethereum. This system monitors multiple Ethereum smart contracts that make up the Azimuth PKI and provides a unified GraphQL API for querying Urbit identity information.

This system monitors multiple Ethereum smart contracts that make up the Azimuth PKI and provides a unified GraphQL API for querying Urbit identity information.
## What is Azimuth?
Azimuth is Urbit's public key infrastructure (PKI) that lives on Ethereum. It's a set of smart contracts that manage Urbit identities called "points" (similar to usernames), their ownership, cryptographic keys, and hierarchical relationships. Each Urbit identity is represented as an NFT on Ethereum, making it decentralized and censorship-resistant.

### Understanding Query Parameters

- **`_point`**: The Urbit point number you're querying
- **`_whose`**: Ethereum address when querying by owner
## Available Query Types
## How It Works

## Development Setup
### Prerequisites
- Node.js 16+
- PostgreSQL database
- Ethereum RPC endpoint (or ipld-eth-server)
### Quick Start
1. **Clone and install dependencies:**
```bash
git clone https://github.com/cerc-io/azimuth-watcher-ts.git
cd azimuth-watcher-ts
yarn install
```
2. **Build all packages:**
```bash
yarn build
```
3. **Configure environment:**
- Copy `packages/azimuth-watcher/environments/local.toml` and update database/RPC settings
- Set up PostgreSQL databases for each watcher
4. **Start the azimuth-watcher:**
```bash
cd packages/azimuth-watcher
yarn server:dev # GraphQL server
yarn job-runner:dev # Blockchain indexer (separate terminal)
```
5. **Start the gateway server (optional):**
```bash
cd packages/gateway-server
yarn server:dev
```
### Commands
**Build and lint:**
```bash
yarn build # Build all packages
yarn lint # Lint with zero warnings tolerance
```
**Individual watcher operations:**
```bash
yarn server:dev # Development GraphQL server
yarn job-runner:dev # Event processing worker
yarn fill # Backfill historical data
yarn reset # Reset watcher state
yarn checkpoint # Create state checkpoint
```
## Architecture Details
The watchers continuously monitor Ethereum smart contracts by connecting to Ethereum RPC endpoint(s), indexing blockchain events and state changes.
### Data Flow
1. **Indexing**: Job runners continuously fetch Ethereum events and blocks
2. **Processing**: Events are processed and state changes stored in PostgreSQL
3. **Querying**: GraphQL servers provide indexed data with historical query support
1. **Indexing**: Job runners fetch Ethereum events and blocks from RPC endpoint(s)
2. **Processing**: Events are processed and state changes stored in PostgreSQL databases
3. **Querying**: GraphQL servers provide fast, indexed access to current and historical blockchain state
4. **Gateway**: Unified endpoint routes queries to appropriate specialized watchers
### Storage
- Each watcher maintains its own PostgreSQL database
- State is checkpointed periodically for recovery
- IPLD (Content-addressed storage) support for cryptographic proofs
Each watcher maintains its own PostgreSQL database for efficient querying and data isolation.
