This concludes all the code needed to connect to the DB and beacon node. We will no longer reference the lighthouse client because this application should work interchangeably with any beacon node. I have also standardized logging. |

ipld-ethcl-indexer
This application will capture all the BeaconState
's and SignedBeaconBlock
's from the consensus chain on Ethereum. This application is going to connect to the lighthouse client, but hypothetically speaking, it should be interchangeable with any eth2 beacon node.
Running the Application
To run the application, utilize the following command, and update the values as needed.
go run main.go capture head --db.address localhost \
--db.password password \
--db.port 8077 \
--db.username vdbm \
--db.name vulcanize_testing \
--db.driver PGX \
--bc.address localhost \
--bc.port 5052 \
--log.level info
Development Patterns
This section will cover some generic development patterns utilizes.
Logging
For logging, please keep the following in mind:
- Utilize logrus.
- Use
log.Debug
to highlight that you are about to do something. - Use
log.Info-Fatal
when the thing you were about to do has been completed, along with the result.
log.Debug("Adding 1 + 2")
a := 1 + 2
log.Info("1 + 2 successfully Added, outcome is: ", a)
Boot
The boot package in internal
is utilized to start the application. Everything in the boot process must complete successfully for the application to start. If it does not, the application will not start.
