## Background
2020-09-01 21:14:37 +00:00
NOTE: WIP
2020-10-23 15:15:35 +00:00
ipld-eth-server is used to service queries against the Ethereum IPLD objects indexed by [ipld-eth-indexer](https://github.com/vulcanize/ipld-eth-indexer).
2020-09-01 21:14:37 +00:00
It exposes standard Ethereum JSON RPC endpoints on top of the database, in some cases these endpoints can leverage the unique indexes to improve query performance.
Additional, unique endpoints are exposed which utilize the new indexes and state diff data objects.

## Install
2020-08-31 15:52:47 +00:00
Start by downloading ipld-eth-server and moving into the repo:
`GO111MODULE=off go get -d github.com/cerc-io/ipld-eth-server/v5`
`cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/cerc-io/ipld-eth-server/v5@v5.x.x`
Then, build the binary:
`make build`
## Usage
After building the binary, run as
2020-09-01 21:14:37 +00:00
`./ipld-eth-server serve --config=<the name of your config file.toml>`
### Configuration
2020-09-01 21:14:37 +00:00
Below is the set of parameters for the ipld-eth-server command, in .toml form, with the respective environmental variables commented to the side.
The corresponding CLI flags can be found with the `./ipld-eth-server serve --help` command.
```toml
[database]
name = "vulcanize_public" # $DATABASE_NAME
hostname = "localhost" # $DATABASE_HOSTNAME
port = 5432 # $DATABASE_PORT
2020-09-01 21:14:37 +00:00
user = "postgres" # $DATABASE_USER
password = "" # $DATABASE_PASSWORD
2020-09-01 21:14:37 +00:00
[log]
level = "info" # $LOG_LEVEL
2020-09-01 21:14:37 +00:00
[server]
ipcPath = "~/.vulcanize/vulcanize.ipc" # $SERVER_IPC_PATH
wsPath = "127.0.0.1:8081" # $SERVER_WS_PATH
httpPath = "127.0.0.1:8082" # $SERVER_HTTP_PATH

httpPath = "127.0.0.1:8545" # $ETH_HTTP_PATH
nodeID = "arch1" # $ETH_NODE_ID
clientName = "Geth" # $ETH_CLIENT_NAME
genesisBlock = "0xd4e56740f876aef8c010b86a40d5f56745a118d0906a34e69aec8c0db1cb8fa3" # $ETH_GENESIS_BLOCK
networkID = "1" # $ETH_NETWORK_ID
```
The `database` fields are for connecting to a Postgres database that has been/is being populated by [ipld-eth-indexer](https://github.com/vulcanize/ipld-eth-indexer)
The `server` fields set the paths for exposing the ipld-eth-server endpoints
The `ethereum` fields set the chainID and default sender address to use for EVM simulation, and can optionally be used to configure a remote eth node to forward cache misses to

### Endpoints
#### IPLD subscription
TODO: Port the IPLD RPC subscription endpoints after the decoupling
2020-09-01 21:14:37 +00:00
#### Ethereum JSON-RPC
ipld-eth-server currently recapitulates portions of the Ethereum JSON-RPC api standard.
The currently supported standard endpoints are:
2023-05-28 07:47:35 +00:00
- `eth_call`
- `eth_getBalance`
- `eth_getStorageAt`
- `eth_getCode`
- `eth_getProof`
- `eth_blockNumber`
- `eth_getHeaderByNumber`
- `eth_getHeaderByHash`
- `eth_getBlockByNumber`
- `eth_getBlockByHash`
- `eth_getTransactionCount`
- `eth_getBlockTransactionCountByHash`
- `eth_getBlockTransactionCountByNumber`
- `eth_getTransactionByHash`
- `eth_getRawTransactionByHash`
- `eth_getTransactionByBlockHashAndIndex`
- `eth_getTransactionByBlockNumberAndIndex`
- `eth_getRawTransactionByBlockHashAndIndex`
- `eth_getRawTransactionByBlockNumberAndIndex`
- `eth_getTransactionReceipt`
- `eth_getLogs`
- `eth_getUncleCountByBlockHash`
- `eth_getUncleCountByBlockNumber`
- `eth_getUncleByBlockHashAndIndex`
- `eth_getUncleByBlockNumberAndIndex`
2020-10-23 15:15:35 +00:00
TODO: Add the rest of the standard endpoints and unique endpoints (e.g. getSlice)
### Testing
Follow steps in [test/README.md](./test/README.md)
2019-04-05 15:10:34 +00:00
## Monitoring
* Enable http server and metrics using parameters `--http --metrics`
* ipld-eth-server exposes prometheus metrics at `/metric` endpoint
* start prometheus using `monitoring/prometheus.yml` config (`prometheus --config.file=monitoring/prometheus.yml`)
* start grafana, connect to prometheus datasource and import dashboard from `monitoring/grafana/dashboard_main.json`
