# Vulcanize DB

[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/vulcanize/VulcanizeDB.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/vulcanize/VulcanizeDB)

## Dependencies
 - Go 1.9+
 - Postgres 10
 - Ethereum Node
   - [Go Ethereum](https://ethereum.github.io/go-ethereum/downloads/) (1.8+)
   - [Parity 1.8.11+](https://github.com/paritytech/parity/releases)

## Installation
`go get github.com/vulcanize/vulcanizedb`

## Setting up the Database
1. Install Postgres
1. Create a superuser for yourself and make sure `psql --list` works without prompting for a password.
1. `createdb vulcanize_public`
1. `cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/vulcanize/vulcanizedb`
1.  Run the migrations: `make migrate HOST_NAME=localhost NAME=vulcanize_public PORT=5432`

    * See below for configuring additional environments

## Configuration
- To use a local Ethereum node, copy `environments/public.toml.example` to
  `environments/public.toml` and update the `ipcPath` and `levelDbPath`.
  - `ipcPath` should match the local node's IPC filepath:
      - when using geth:
        - The IPC file is called `geth.ipc`.
        - The geth IPC file path is printed to the console when you start geth.
        - The default location is:
          - Mac: `$HOME/Library/Ethereum`
          - Linux: `$HOME/.ethereum`

      - when using parity:
        - The IPC file is called `jsonrpc.ipc`.
        - The default location is:
          - Mac: `$HOME/Library/Application\ Support/io.parity.ethereum/`
          - Linux: `$HOME/.local/share/io.parity.ethereum/`
          
  - `levelDbPath` should match Geth's chaindata directory path.
      - The geth LevelDB chaindata path is printed to the console when you start geth.
      - The default location is:
          - Mac: `$HOME/Library/Ethereum/geth/chaindata`
          - Linux: `$HOME/.ethereum/geth/chaindata`
      - `levelDbPath` is irrelevant (and `coldImport` is currently unavailable) if only running parity.

- See `environments/infura.toml` to configure commands to run against infura, if a local node is unavailable

## Start syncing with postgres
Syncs VulcanizeDB with the configured Ethereum node.
1. Start node (**if fast syncing wait for initial sync to finish**)
1. In a separate terminal start vulcanize_db
    - `./vulcanizedb sync --config <config.toml> --starting-block-number <block-number>`

## Alternatively, sync from Geth's underlying LevelDB
Sync VulcanizeDB from the LevelDB underlying a Geth node.
1. Assure node is not running, and that it has synced to the desired block height.
1. Start vulcanize_db
   - `./vulcanizedb coldImport --config <config.toml> --starting-block-number <block-number> --ending-block-number <block-number>`

## Running the Tests

### Unit Tests
- `go test ./pkg/...`

### Integration Tests
 - `go test ./...` to run all tests.
