A library to turn an unreliable remote source of Vapory blocks into a reliable stream of blocks. Handles block and log removals on chain reorganization and block and log backfills on skipped blocks.

Usage

Full Example

// blockRetention is how many blocks of history to keep in memory.  it defaults to 100 if not supplied
const configuration = { blockRetention: 100 };
async function getBlockByHash(hash: string): Promise<Block|null> {
    const response = await fetch("http://localhost:8545", {
        method: "POST",
        headers: new Headers({"Content-Type": "application/json"}),
        body: { jsonrpc: "2.0", id: 1, method: "vap_getBlockByHash", params: [hash, false] }
    });
    return await response.json();
}
async function getLogs(filterOptions: FilterOptions): Promise<Log[]> {
    const response = await fetch("http://localhost:8545", {
        method: "POST",
        headers: new Headers({"Content-Type": "application/json"}),
        body: { jsonrpc: "2.0", id: 1, method: "vap_getLogs", params: [filterOptions] }
    });
    return await response.json();
}
async function getLatestBlock(): Promise<Block> {
    const response = await fetch("http://localhost:8545", {
        method: "POST",
        headers: new Headers({"Content-Type": "application/json"}),
        body: { jsonrpc: "2.0", id: 1, method: "vap_getBlockByNumber", params: ["latest", false] }
    });
    return await response.json();
}
const blockAndLogStreamer = new BlockAndLogStreamer(getBlockByHash, getLogs, configuration);
const onBlockAddedSubscriptionToken = blockAndLogStreamer.subscribeToOnBlockAdded(block => console.log(block));

blockAndLogStreamer.reconcileNewBlock(getLatestBlock());
// you will get a callback for the block and any logs that match the filter here
triggerBlockMining();
triggerBlockMining();
triggerBlockMining();
blockAndLogStreamer.reconcileNewBlock(getLatestBlock());
// you will get a callback for all blocks and logs that match the filter that have been added to the chain since the previous call to reconcileNewBlock
triggerChainReorg();
blockAndLogStreamer.reconcileNewBlock(getLatestBlock());
// you will get a callback for block/log removals that occurred due to the chain re-org, followed by block/log additions
blockAndLogStreamer.unsubscribeFromOnBlockAdded(onBlockAddedSubscriptionToken);
blockAndLogStreamer.unsubscribeFromOnBlockRemoved(onBlockRemovedSubscriptionToken);
blockAndLogStreamer.unsubscribeFromOnLogAdded(onLogAddedSubscriptionToken);
blockAndLogStreamer.unsubscribeFromOnLogRemoved(onLogRemovedSubscriptionToken);
blockAndLogStreamer.removeLogFilter(logFilterToken);
console.log(blockAndLogStreamer.getLatestReconciledBlock());
