Adding a new migration: `./scripts/create_migration <migration-name>`
## Start syncing with postgres
1. Start geth node (**if fast syncing wait for geth to finsh initial sync**)
2. In a separate terminal start vulcanize_db
- `vulcanizedb sync --config <config.toml> --starting-block-number <block-numbe>`
* see `environments` for example config
## Watch specific events
1. Start geth
2. In a separate terminal start vulcanize_db
- `vulcanizedb sync --config <config.toml> --starting-block-number <block-numbe>`
3. Create event filter
- `vulcanizedb addFilter --config <config.toml> --filter-filepath <filter.json>`
4. The filters are tracked in the `log_filters` table and the filtered events
will show up in the `watched_log_events` view
* see `./filters` for example filter
## Development Setup
### Creating/Using a test node
Syncing the against the public network takes many hours for the initial sync and will download 20+ GB of data.
Here are some instructions for creating a private test node that does not depend on having a network connection.
1. Run `./scripts/setup` to create a private blockchain with a new account.
* This will result in a warning.
2. Run `./scripts/start_private_blockchain`.
### IPC File Paths
The default location for Ethereum is:
- `$HOME/Library/Ethereum` for Mac
- `$HOME/.ethereum` for Ubuntu
- `$GOPATH/src/gihub.com/vulcanize/vulcanizedb/test_data_dir/geth.ipc` for private blockchain.
- `$GOPATH/src/gihub.com/vulcanize/vulcanizedb/test_data_dir/geth.ipc` for private node.
**Note the location of the ipc file is printed to the console when you start geth. It is needed to for configuration**

In order to run the integration tests, you will need to run them against a real blockchain. At the moment the integration tests require [Geth v1.7.2](https://ethereum.github.io/go-ethereum/downloads/) as they depend on the `--dev` mode, which changed in v1.7.3
