HyperIndex

HyperIndex is a modern, multi-chain data indexing framework for efficiently querying real-time and historical data from any EVM blockchain and Fuel.

Designed with a core focus on delivering superior performance and a seamless developer experience, HyperIndex optimizes the user experience.

Build a real-time API for your blockchain application in minutes!

Key Features

Simplified Setup: Start instantly with the quickstart, templates, and reference implementations.
Any EVM & Fuel: Index smart contract data from any EVM-compatible network.
Fastest Historical Backfill: Up to 1000x faster than RPC. Enhance your dev lifecycle. Reduce time-to-market.
Multichain: Index multiple networks with a single deployment. Query with a unified API.
Real-time & Reorg Aware: Sub-second latency and automatic handling of chain reorganizations.
Wildcard Indexing: Index events according to event signatures (e.g. all ERC20 transfers on Base).
Dynamic Sources / Factory Contracts: Dynamically index all future children contracts (e.g. new token pairs).
Flexible Language Support: Write JavaScript, TypeScript, or ReScript with automatically generated types.
Join Onchain & Offchain Data: Create a flexible API beyond what is available onchain (e.g. NFT metadata).
Hosted Service & Self Hosting: Focus on your app and users, while we take care of your infrastructure.
Detailed Logging & Error Messaging: Simplify troubleshooting with comprehensive insights.

Installation

Install prerequisite tools:

  1. Node.js (install v18) https://nodejs.org/en (Recommended to use a node manager like fnm or nvm)

  2. pnpm

    npm install --global pnpm
    
  3. Cargo https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/getting-started/installation.html

    curl https://sh.rustup.rs -sSf | sh
    
  4. Docker Desktop https://www.docker.com/products/docker-desktop/

Install Envio:

cargo install --path codegenerator/cli --locked --debug

Command to see available CLI commands

envio --help

Alternatively you can add an alias in your shell config. This will allow you to test Envio locally without manual recompiling.

Go to your shell config file and add the following line:

alias lenvio="cargo run --manifest-path <absolute repository path>/hyperindex/codegenerator/cli/Cargo.toml --"

lenvio is like local envio 😁

Update CLI Generated Docs

Navigate to the cli directory cd codegenerator/cli

To update all generated docs run

make update-generated-docs

To updated just the config json schemas make update-schemas

Or to update just the cli help md file update-help

Create templates

cd into folder of your choice and run

envio init

Then choose a template out of the possible options

? Which template would you like to use?
> "Gravatar"
[↑↓ to move, enter to select, type to filter]

Then choose a language from JavaScript, TypeScript or ReScript to write the event handlers file.

? Which language would you like to use?
> "JavaScript"
  "TypeScript"
  "ReScript"
[↑↓ to move, enter to select, type to filter

This will generate the config, schema and event handlers files according to the template and language chosen.

Configure the files according to your project

Our greeter template config.yaml and schema.graphql is an example of how to layout a configuration file for indexing.

Please refer to the documentation website for a thorough guide on all Envio indexer features

Generate code according to configuration

Once you have configured the above files and deployed the contracts, the following can be used generate all the code that is required for indexing your project:

envio codegen

Run the indexer

Once all the configuration files and auto-generated files are in place, you are ready to run the indexer for your project:

pnpm start

View the database

To view the data in the database, run

./generated/register_tables_with_hasura.sh

and open http://localhost:8080/console.

Admin-secret for local Hasura is testing

Alternatively you can open the file index.html for a cleaner experience (no Hasura stuff). Unfortunately, Hasura is currently not configured to make the data public.

Local testing using Hardhat and Docker

Below are steps to be followed when testing the indexer locally using Hardhat and Docker.

NB: All the files must be configured as per guideline above.

  1. Removing stale data

    docker-compose down -v
    
  2. Restarting docker

    docker-compose up -d
    
  3. Deploying contract

    cd contracts
    rm -r deployments
    pnpm hardhat deploy
    

    Note that this will delete the previous deployment of the smart contract and re-deploy to prevent node synced status errors.

    More information on how to deploy contracts using Hardhat can be found at this deploying guide.

  4. Generating code Once you are in your project directory, run:

    envio codegen
    
  5. Running the indexer

    pnpm start
    
  6. Running some tasks

    pnpm hardhat task:1 --parameter-1 value-1
    

    More information on how to create and run tasks using Hardhat can be found created-task doc.

  7. Checking the results on local Hasura

    ./generated/register_tables_with_hasura.sh
    

    and open http://localhost:8080/console.

Troubleshooting

Exporting smart contract ABI

If you have updated your smart contract after the initial codegen, then you will have to recreate the ABI for your smart contract.

Run

cd contracts
pnpm hardhat export-abi

Ensure that the directory for ABI in config.yaml is pointing to the correct folder where ABIs have been freshly generated.
