Overview

  • Explorer - Next.js app based on React and Tailwind CSS, uses Apollo Client to fetch data from Astral Subsquid
  • Indexers - Includes various Subsquid indexers like blockexplorer-subsquid and other smaller Subsquid services.
  • Health check - utility service to check health status of an internal service and expose it as a REST API endpoint

Development

Prerequisites

Ensure you have the following installed on your local development machine:

  • Node.js (v18.x or later)
  • Yarn (v2.x or later)

You can check your Node and Yarn versions with 'node -v' and 'yarn -v' respectively.

Installation

These step focus on setting up the development environment for the Astral Block Explorer. You can also find the instructions for setting up the Squid backend and Health check services in their respective directories.

  1. Clone the repository:

    git clone https://github.com/autonomys/astral.git
    cd astral
  2. Move to the explorer directory:

    cd explorer
  3. Install the dependencies:

    yarn install
  4. Run the development server:

    yarn dev

    Open http://localhost:3000 with your browser to see the result.

Multi-Network Indexers Setup

To set up the multi-network indexers, follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to the indexers directory:

    cd indexers
  2. Install the dependencies:

    yarn
  3. Build the indexers:

    yarn build
  4. Start the PostgreSQL database with multiple tables, Hasura, and various Subquery nodes using Docker Compose:

    From the root directory, run:

    docker compose up

This command will initialize a PostgreSQL database configured with multiple tables, launch the Hasura GraphQL engine, and start multiple Subquery nodes to index all networks. This setup provides all the necessary data for different sections of the explorer, ensuring a comprehensive indexing solution for the application.
