Architecture​

There are three main components to indexing with the Movement Network. We first have the Suzuka full node which provides a gRPC stream of transactions. The gRPC stream of transactions is consumed by the Transaction Streaming Service which includes the following components:

  • Cache Worker: Pulls transactions from the node and stores them in Redis.

  • File Store: Fetches transactions from Redis and stores them in a filesystem.

  • Indexer API: Consumes the data-service providing a GraphQL API to dApps and other clients wishing to query the network.

The Indexer API also allows the development of customized processors.

Running the Transaction Streaming Service​

The following guides from Aptos are provided: Aptos Documentation

Indexing Suzuka - Future Plans​

Movement Labs plans to provide a hosted Transaction Stream Service in the near future. In the meantime, anyone wishing to index the Movement network would need to self-host their own Transaction Streaming Service.

Providing a GraphQL API​

With the Data Service running, the Indexer API can be configured to consume it as per the following repository to provide a GraphQL API to downstream clients:

Data Service: Serves transactions via a gRPC stream to downstream clients. It pulls from either the cache or the file store depending on the age of the transaction.
