# Statediff database indexing
|
||
|
|
||
|
To process data in real time as Geth syncs updates to the Ethereum execution layer, the statediff
|
||
|
service is able to directly transform and load data into a Postgres database. The `indexer` package
|
||
|
contains abstractions for handling this ingestion.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Interface
|
||
|
|
||
|
A `StateDiffIndexer` object is responsible for inserting statediff data into a database, as well as managing watched address lists for a given database.
|
||
|
Three implementations are currently maintained:
|
||
|
* `sql` for direct insertion to Postgres
|
||
|
* `file` which writes to CSV for SQL files for insertion in a separate step
|
||
|
* `dump` which simply dumps to stdout
