Adrestia is the new codename for all Cardano tooling and includes tooling that will have long-term support.
Adrestia recommends powering light clients with GraphQL. This is done by using cardano-db-sync to dump the database to a database and then using cardano-graphql to serve that data.
This provides an API useful to light wallets for Cardano.
For some endpoints, we use SQL queries directly (either because they aren't possible in GraphQL or because we need the performance of raw SQL queries)
However, we initially wanted every query to be in GraphQL so that any project using yoroi-graphql-migration-backend can use our REST API as a intermediate step to running GraphQL queries directly.
To run this, you will need to run the following
- cardano-node
- cardano-db-sync
Development build (with hot reloading):
# install the right version of Node
nvm use
nvm install
# install dependencies
npm install
# run the server
npm run dev
The server will then run at http://localhost:8082. You can query using curl (ex: curl http://localhost:8082/bestblock
)
This is no easy way to configure runtime settings. However, you can edit lines 23-26 of src/index.ts to change port settings, graphql uri, et cetera.
There are test which run by querying your local cardano-db-sync and cardano-graphql. You can run it by doing the following
# run the server on a terminal window
npm run dev
# run the tests on a different terminal
npm run test
For addresses, refer to CIP5 for how they should be encoded. Notably, we support
addr
&addr_test
stake
&stake_test
addr_vkh
We recommend querying using payment key hashes (addr_vkh
) when possible (otherwise you may miss addresses for a wallet such as mangled based addresses or other address types like pointer addresses)
txs/utxoForAddresses
InputUp to 50 addresses in the request
{
// byron addresses, bech32 address, bech32 stake addresses or addr_vkh
addresses: Array<string>
}
Output
Array<{
utxo_id: string, // concat tx_hash and tx_index
tx_hash: string,
tx_index: number,
block_num: number, // NOTE: not slot_no
receiver: string,
amount: string,
dataHash: string,
assets: Asset[],
}>
v2/txs/utxoAtPoint
This endpoint is based on the current `/txs/utxoForAddresses`. It adds capabilities for passing a reference block and pagination information.This endpoint basically takes a "snapshot" of how was the UTxO information for the given addresses up to referenceBlock
, meaning UTxOs created in transactions from blocks after referenceBlockHash
won't be included, but also that UTxOs spent only in blocks after referenceBlockHash
will actually be included in the response.
OBS: we don't actually take snapshots, such information can be inferred from on-chain data.
Input
Up to 50 addresses in the request
{
// byron addresses, bech32 address, bech32 stake addresses or addr_vkh
addresses: Array<string>,
page: number,

}>
v2/txs/utxoDiffSincePoint
Returns a diff of inputs and outputs between two points. See the comments next to the request parameters for more information. This endpoint is better used in combination with `v2/txs/utxoAtPoint`. After making a request to `v2/txs/utxoAtPoint`, the clients can keep their local copy of the UTxO state by calling `v2/txs/utxoDiffSincePoint` with `afterPoint` or `afterBestBlocks` being built using the block from the previous request as a reference point and making any changes established by the diff, so essentially discarding outputs which have been returned in the diff as inputs and including the new outputs returned by the diff.Input
{
// byron addresses, bech32 address, bech32 stake addresses or addr_vkh
addresses: Array<string>,
untilBlockHash: string, // only transactions up to this block (including it) will be considered for generating the diff
// when starting to call this endpoint, the client should set the `blockHash` field. Then the client should pass the returned `lastDiffPointSelected` as `afterPoint` for the next page.
afterPoint: {
blockHash: string, // only transactions AFTER this clock will be considered for generating the diff
...
},
afterBestBlocks?: Array<string> // only transactions after the latest block from this array will be included. The inclusion of `afterBestBlocks` in the request will also add 2 new fields to the response (see the response bellow for more details)
diffLimit: number // number of diff items to return
}
Output
{
diffItems: Array<{
type: "output" | "input",
id: string, // in the format {TX hash}:{output index}
amount: string,
assets?: Asset[], // only included for outputs
block_num?: number // only included for outputs

v2/txs/history
Since short rollbacks are common (by design) in Cardano Shelley, your app needs to be ready for this. The pagination mechanism should help make this easy for you.To handle pagination, we use an after
and untilBlock
field that refers to positions inside the chain. Usually, pagination works as follows:
- Query the
bestblock
endpoint to get the current tip of the chain (and call thisuntilBlock
) - Look up the last transaction your application has saved locally (and call this
after
) - Query everything between
untilBlock
andafter
. IfuntilBlock
no long exists, requery. Ifafter
no long exists, mark the transaction as failed and re-query with an earlier transaction - If more results were returned than the maximum responses you can receive for one query, find the most recent transction included in the response and set this as the new
after
and then query again (with the same value foruntilBlock
)
Note: this endpoint will throw an error if either the untilBlock
or after
fields no longer exist inside the blockchain (allowing your app to handle rollbacks). Notably, the error codes are
- 'REFERENCE_BLOCK_MISMATCH'
- 'REFERENCE_TX_NOT_FOUND'
- 'REFERENCE_BEST_BLOCK_MISMATCH'
Input
Up to 50 addresses in the request
{
// byron addresses, bech32 address, bech32 stake addresses or addr_vkh
addresses: Array<string>,
// omitting "after" means you query starting from the genesis block
after?: {
block: string, // block hash
tx: string, // tx hash
},
untilBlock: string, // block hash - inclusive
}
Output
Up to 50
transactions are returned. Use pagination with the after
field to get more.

Output
Up to 100
transactions are returned. Transactions which are not yet on-chain will be ignored and won't be included in the response. The txHashes

Output
{
isServerOk: boolean, // heartbeat endpoint for server. IF you want the node status, use v2/importerhealthcheck instead
isMaintenance: boolean, // manually set and indicates you should disable ADA integration in your app until it returns false. Use to avoid weird app-side behavior during server upgrades.
serverTime: number, // in millisecond unix time
isQueueOnline: boolean, // indicates if the backend is using the TX queue to submit the signed transactions. Essentially, it returns true if the USE_SIGNED_TX_QUEUE env var is set to "true".

/oracles/getDatapoints
This endpoint is used to return specific data (data point) of a specified oracle.There are two usages of this endpoint - with and without source. This is because when calling with source, ticker becomes mandatory.
- without specifying source:
Input
{
addresses: Array<string>, // mandatory, bech32 addresses of trusted oracles
ticker?: string, // optional. If not set, fetch all available tickers. If set, fetch only that ticker
blockNum?: number, // optional. If not set, fetch latest `count` data and order desc.
// If set, find `count` nearest (absolute) values around that block
// e.g. with block_no = 100, count = 3 and data at blocks 85,90,100,115,135, returned data will be for blocks:
// 100 (absolute distance 0), 90 (absolute distance 10) and 115 (absolute distance 15 - same as block 85, but more recent)
// i.e. nearest blocks to the block specified
// in case of a draw we display the more recent block
count?: number, // optional, default 1, max 10
}
Output
[addresses: string]: undefined | {
blockDistance: number | null,
blockNumber: number,
txHash: string,
txIndex: number,

- with source (and thus also ticker) specified:
Input
{
addresses: Array<string>, // mandatory, bech32 addresses of trusted oracles
ticker: string, // mandatory. When filtering with source, tickers are mandatory
blockNum?: number, // optional. If not set, fetch latest `count` data and order desc.
