BlockScout provides a comprehensive, easy-to-use interface for users to view, confirm, and inspect transactions on **all EVM** (Ethereum Virtual Machine) blockchains. This includes the Ethereum main and test networks as well as **Ethereum forks and sidechains**. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
Following is an overview of the project and instructions for [getting started](#getting-started). |
## Features |
||||||
|
|
||||||
Visit the [POA BlockScout forum](https://forum.poa.network/c/blockscout) for additional deployment instructions, FAQs, troubleshooting, and other BlockScout related items. You can also post and answer questions here. |

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## About BlockScout |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
BlockScout is an Elixir application that allows users to search transactions, view accounts and balances, and verify smart contracts on the entire Ethereum network including all forks and sidechains. |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Currently available block explorers (i.e. Etherscan and Etherchain) are closed systems which are not independently verifiable. As Ethereum sidechains continue to proliferate in both private and public settings, transparent tools are needed to analyze and validate transactions. |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Features |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- [x] **Open source development**: The code is community driven and available for anyone to use, explore and improve. |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- [x] **Real time transaction tracking**: Transactions are updated in real time - no page refresh required. Infinite scrolling is also enabled. |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- [x] **Smart contract interaction**: Users can read and verify Solidity smart contracts and access pre-existing contracts to fast-track development. Support for Vyper, LLL, and Web Assembly contracts is in progress. |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- [x] **Token support**: ERC20 and ERC721 tokens are supported. Future releases will support additional token types including ERC223 and ERC1155. |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- [x] **User customization**: Users can easily deploy on a network and customize the Bootstrap interface. |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- [x] **Ethereum sidechain networks**: BlockScout supports the Ethereum mainnet, Ethereum testnets, POA network, and forks like Ethereum Classic, xDAI, additional sidechains, and private EVM networks. |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||

### Umbrella Project Organization |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This repository is an [umbrella project](https://elixir-lang.org/getting-started/mix-otp/dependencies-and-umbrella-projects.html). Each directory under `apps/` is a separate [Mix](https://hexdocs.pm/mix/Mix.html) project and [OTP application](https://hexdocs.pm/elixir/Application.html), but the projects can use each other as a dependency in their `mix.exs`. |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Each OTP application has a restricted domain. |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
| Directory | OTP Application | Namespace | Purpose | |
|
||||||
|:------------------------|:--------------------|:------------------|:--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| |
|
||||||
| `apps/ethereum_jsonrpc` | `:ethereum_jsonrpc` | `EthereumJSONRPC` | Ethereum JSONRPC client. It is allowed to know `Explorer`'s param format, but it cannot directly depend on `:explorer` | |
|
||||||
| `apps/explorer` | `:explorer` | `Explorer` | Storage for the indexed chain. Can read and write to the backing storage. MUST be able to boot in a read-only mode when run independently from `:indexer`, so cannot depend on `:indexer` as that would start `:indexer` indexing. | |
|
||||||
| `apps/block_scout_web` | `:block_scout_web` | `BlockScoutWeb` | Phoenix interface to `:explorer`. The minimum interface to allow web access should go in `:block_scout_web`. Any business rules or interface not tied directly to `Phoenix` or `Plug` should go in `:explorer`. MUST be able to boot in a read-only mode when run independently from `:indexer`, so cannot depend on `:indexer` as that would start `:indexer` indexing. | |
|
||||||
| `apps/indexer` | `:indexer` | `Indexer` | Uses `:ethereum_jsonrpc` to index chain and batch import data into `:explorer`. Any process, `Task`, or `GenServer` that automatically reads from the chain and writes to `:explorer` should be in `:indexer`. This restricts automatic writes to `:indexer` and read-only mode can be achieved by not running `:indexer`. | |

### Build and Run |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Playbook Deployment |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
We use [Ansible](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/index.html) & [Terraform](https://www.terraform.io/intro/getting-started/install.html) to build the correct infrastructure to run BlockScout. See [https://github.com/poanetwork/blockscout-terraform](https://github.com/poanetwork/blockscout-terraform) for details and instructions. |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Manual Deployment |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
See [Manual BlockScout Deployment](https://forum.poa.network/t/manual-blockscout-deployment/2458) for instructions. |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Environment Variables |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Our forum contains a [full list of BlockScout environment variables](https://forum.poa.network/t/faq-blockscout-environment-variables/1814). |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Configuring EVM Chains |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* **CSS:** Update the import instruction in `apps/block_scout_web/assets/css/theme/_variables.scss` to select a preset css file. This is reflected in the `production-${chain}` branch for each instance. For example, in the `production-xdai` branch, it is set to `@import "dai-variables"`. |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* **ENV:** Update the [environment variables](https://forum.poa.network/t/faq-blockscout-environment-variables/1814) to match the chain specs. |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Automating Restarts |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
By default `blockscout` does not restart if it crashes. To enable automated |
|
||||||
restarts, set the environment variable `HEART_COMMAND` to whatever command you run to start `blockscout`. Configure the heart beat timeout to change how long it waits before considering the application unresponsive. At that point, it will kill the current blockscout instance and execute the `HEART_COMMAND`. By default a crash dump is not written unless you set `ERL_CRASH_DUMP_SECONDS` to a positive or negative integer. See the [heart](http://erlang.org/doc/man/heart.html) documentation for more information. |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### CircleCI Updates |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
To monitor build status, configure your local [CCMenu](http://ccmenu.org/) with the following url: [`https://circleci.com/gh/poanetwork/blockscout.cc.xml?circle-token=f8823a3d0090407c11f87028c73015a331dbf604`](https://circleci.com/gh/poanetwork/blockscout.cc.xml?circle-token=f8823a3d0090407c11f87028c73015a331dbf604) |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Testing |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Requirements |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* PhantomJS (for wallaby) |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Running the tests |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. Build the assets. |
|
||||||
`cd apps/block_scout_web/assets && npm run build; cd -` |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
2. Format the Elixir code. |
|
||||||
`mix format` |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
3. Run the test suite with coverage for whole umbrella project. This step can be run with different configuration outlined below. |
|
||||||
`mix coveralls.html --umbrella` |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
4. Lint the Elixir code. |
|
||||||
`mix credo --strict` |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
5. Run the dialyzer. |
|
||||||
`mix dialyzer --halt-exit-status` |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
6. Check the Elixir code for vulnerabilities. |
|
||||||
`cd apps/explorer && mix sobelow --config; cd -` |
|
||||||
`cd apps/block_scout_web && mix sobelow --config; cd -` |
|

|
||||||
### API Documentation |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
To view Modules and API Reference documentation: |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. Generate documentation. |
|
||||||
`mix docs` |
|
||||||
2. View the generated docs. |
|
||||||
`open doc/index.html` |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Front-end |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Javascript |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
All Javascript files are under [apps/block_scout_web/assets/js](https://github.com/poanetwork/blockscout/tree/master/apps/block_scout_web/assets/js) and the main file is [app.js](https://github.com/poanetwork/blockscout/blob/master/apps/block_scout_web/assets/js/app.js). This file imports all javascript used in the application. If you want to create a new JS file consider creating into [/js/pages](https://github.com/poanetwork/blockscout/tree/master/apps/block_scout_web/assets/js/pages) or [/js/lib](https://github.com/poanetwork/blockscout/tree/master/apps/block_scout_web/assets/js/lib), as follows: |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### js/lib |
|
||||||
This folder contains all scripts that can be reused in any page or can be used as a helper to some component. |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### js/pages |
|
||||||
This folder contains the scripts that are specific for some page. |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Redux |
|
||||||
This project uses Redux to control the state in some pages. There are pages that have things happening in real-time thanks to the Phoenix channels, e.g. Address page, so the page state changes a lot depending on which events it is listening. The redux is also used to load some contents asynchronous, see [async_listing_load.js](https://github.com/poanetwork/blockscout/blob/master/apps/block_scout_web/assets/js/lib/async_listing_load.js). |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
To understand how to build new pages that need redux in this project, see the [redux_helpers.js](https://github.com/poanetwork/blockscout/blob/master/apps/block_scout_web/assets/js/lib/redux_helpers.js) |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Internationalization |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The app is currently internationalized. It is only localized to U.S. English. To translate new strings. |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. To setup translation file. |
|
||||||
`cd apps/block_scout_web; mix gettext.extract --merge; cd -` |
|
||||||
2. To edit the new strings, go to `apps/block_scout_web/priv/gettext/en/LC_MESSAGES/default.po`. |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Metrics |

|
||||||
## Tracing |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Blockscout supports tracing via |
|
||||||
[Spandex](http://git@github.com:spandex-project/spandex.git). Each application |
|
||||||
has its own tracer, that is configured internally to that application. In order |
|
||||||
to enable it, visit each application's `config/<env>.ex` and update its tracer |
|
||||||
configuration to change `disabled?: true` to `disabled?: false`. Do this for |
|
||||||
each application you'd like included in your trace data. |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Currently, only [Datadog](https://www.datadoghq.com/) is supported as a |
|
||||||
tracing backend, but more will be added soon. |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### DataDog |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If you would like to use DataDog, after enabling `Spandex`, set |
|
||||||
`"DATADOG_HOST"` and `"DATADOG_PORT"` environment variables to the |
|
||||||
host/port that your Datadog agent is running on. For more information on |
|
||||||
Datadog and the Datadog agent, see their |
|
||||||
[documentation](https://docs.datadoghq.com/). |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Other |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If you want to use a different backend, remove the |
|
||||||
`SpandexDatadog.ApiServer` `Supervisor.child_spec` from |
|
||||||
`Explorer.Application` and follow any instructions provided in `Spandex` |
|
||||||
for setting up that backend. |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Memory Usage |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The work queues for building the index of all blocks, balances (coin and token), and internal transactions can grow quite large. By default, the soft-limit is 1 GiB, which can be changed in `apps/indexer/config/config.exs`: |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
``` |
|
||||||
config :indexer, memory_limit: 1 <<< 30 |
|
||||||
``` |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Memory usage is checked once per minute. If the soft-limit is reached, the shrinkable work queues will shed half their load. The shed load will be restored from the database, the same as when a restart of the server occurs, so rebuilding the work queue will be slower, but use less memory. |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If all queues are at their minimum size, then no more memory can be reclaimed and an error will be logged. |
|

## About BlockScout |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
BlockScout is an Elixir application that allows users to search transactions, view accounts and balances, and verify smart contracts on the entire Ethereum network including all forks and sidechains. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Currently available block explorers (i.e. Etherscan and Etherchain) are closed systems which are not independently verifiable. As Ethereum sidechains continue to proliferate in both private and public settings, transparent tools are needed to analyze and validate transactions. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Information on the latest release and version history is available [on our forum](https://forum.poa.network/c/blockscout/releases) |
||||||
|

# Playbook Overview |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
We use [Ansible](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/index.html) & [Terraform](https://www.terraform.io/intro/getting-started/install.html) to build the correct infrastructure to run BlockScout. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The playbook repository is located at [https://github.com/poanetwork/blockscout-terraform](https://github.com/poanetwork/blockscout-terraform). Currently it only supports [AWS](#AWS) as a cloud provider. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In the root folder you will find Ansible Playbooks to create all necessary infrastructure to deploy BlockScout. The `lambda` folder also contains a set of scripts that may be useful in your BlockScout infrastructure. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. [Deploying the Infrastructure](#deploying-the-infrastructure). This section describes all the steps to deploy the virtual hardware that is required for production instance of BlockScout. Skip this section if you do have an infrastructure and simply want to install or update your BlockScout. |
||||||
|
2. [Deploying BlockScout](#deploying-blockscout). Follow this section to install or update your BlockScout. |
||||||
|
3. [Destroying Provisioned Infrastructure](#destroying-provisioned-infrastructure). Refer to this section if you want to destroy your BlockScout installation. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Prerequisites |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Playbooks relies on Terraform, the stateful infrastructure-as-a-code software tool. It allows you to modify and recreate single and multiple resources depending on your needs. |
||||||

# AWS permissions |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
See our forum for a detailed [AWS settings and setup tutorial](https://forum.poa.network/t/aws-settings-for-blockscout-terraform-deployment/1962). |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
During deployment you will provide credentials to your AWS account. The deployment process requires a wide set of permissions, so it works best if you specify the administrator account credentials. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
However, if you want to restrict the permissions, here is the list of resources which are created during the deployment process: |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- An S3 bucket to keep Terraform state files; |
||||||
|
- DynamoDB table to manage Terraform state files leases; |
||||||
|
- An SSH keypair (or you can choose to use one which was already created), this is used with any EC2 hosts; |
||||||
|
- A VPC containing all of the resources provisioned; |
||||||
|
- A public subnet for the app servers, and a private subnet for the database (and Redis for now); |
||||||
|
- An internet gateway to provide internet access for the VPC; |
||||||
|
- An ALB which exposes the app server HTTPS endpoints to the world; |
||||||
|
- A security group to lock down ingress to the app servers to 80/443 + SSH; |
||||||
|
- A security group to allow the ALB to talk to the app servers; |
||||||
|
- A security group to allow the app servers access to the database; |
||||||
|
- An internal DNS zone; |
||||||
|
- A DNS record for the database; |
||||||
|
- An autoscaling group and launch configuration for each chain; |
||||||
|
- A CodeDeploy application and deployment group targeting the corresponding autoscaling groups. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Each configured chain receives its own ASG (autoscaling group) and deployment group. When application updates are pushed to CodeDeploy, all autoscaling groups will deploy the new version using a blue/green strategy. Currently, there is only one EC2 host to run, and the ASG is configured to allow scaling up, but no triggers are set up to actually perform the scaling yet. This is something that may come in the future. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
When deployment begins, Ansible creates the S3 bucket and DynamoDB table required for Terraform state management. This ensures that the Terraform state is stored in a centralized location, allowing multiple people to use Terraform on the same infra without interfering with one another. Terraform prevents interference by holding locks (via DynamoDB) against the state data (stored in S3). |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Configuration |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The single point of configuration in this script is a `group_vars/all.yml` file. First, copy it from `group_vars/all.yml.example` template by executing `cp group_vars/all.yml.example group_vars/all.yml` command and then modify it via any text editor you want (vim example - `vim group_vars/all.yml`). The subsections describe the variable you may want to adjust. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Variables |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Common variables |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- `aws_access_key` and `aws_secret_key` is a credentials pair that provides access to AWS for the deployer; |
||||||
|
- `backend` variable defines whether deployer should keep state files remote or locally. Set `backend` variable to `true` if you want to save state file to the remote S3 bucket; |
||||||
|
- `upload_config_to_s3` - set to `true` if you want to upload config `all.yml` file to the S3 bucket automatically after the deployment. Will not work if `backend` is set to false; |
||||||
|
- `upload_debug_info_to_s3` - set to `true` if you want to upload full log output to the S3 bucket automatically after the deployment. Will not work if `backend` is set to false. *IMPORTANT*: Locally logs are stored at `log.txt` which is not cleaned automatically. Please, do not forget to clean it manually or using the `clean.yml` playbook; |
||||||
|
- `bucket` represents a globally unique name of the bucket where your configs and state will be stored. It will be created automatically during the deployment; |
||||||
|
- `prefix` - is a unique tag to use for provisioned resources (5 alphanumeric chars or less); |
||||||
|
- `chains` - maps chains to the URLs of HTTP RPC endpoints, an ordinary blockchain node can be used; |
||||||
|
- The `region` should be left at `us-east-1` as some of the other regions fail for different reasons; |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
*Note*: a chain name SHOULD NOT be more than 5 characters. Otherwise, it will throw an error because the aws load balancer name should not be greater than 32 characters. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Infrastructure related variables |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- `dynamodb_table` represents the name of table that will be used for Terraform state lock management; |
||||||
|
- If `ec2_ssh_key_content` variable is not empty, Terraform will try to create EC2 SSH key with the `ec2_ssh_key_name` name. Otherwise, the existing key with `ec2_ssh_key_name` name will be used; |
||||||
|
- `instance_type` defines a size of the Blockscout instance that will be launched during the deployment process; |
||||||
|
- `vpc_cidr`, `public_subnet_cidr`, `db_subnet_cidr` represents the network configuration for the deployment. Usually you want to leave it as is. However, if you want to modify it, please, expect that `db_subnet_cidr` represents not a single network, but a group of networks started with defined CIDR block increased by 8 bits. |
||||||
|
Example: |
||||||
|
Number of networks: 2 |
||||||
|
`db_subnet_cidr`: "10.0.1.0/16" |
||||||
|
Real networks: 10.0.1.0/24 and 10.0.2.0/24 |
||||||
|
- An internal DNS zone with`dns_zone_name` name will be created to take care of BlockScout internal communications; |
||||||
|
- The name of a IAM key pair to use for EC2 instances, if you provide a name which |
||||||
|
already exists it will be used, otherwise it will be generated for you; |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* If `use_ssl` is set to `false`, SSL will be forced on Blockscout. To configure SSL, use `alb_ssl_policy` and `alb_certificate_arn` variables; |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- The `root_block_size` is the amount of storage on your EC2 instance. This value can be adjusted by how frequently logs are rotated. Logs are located in `/opt/app/logs` of your EC2 instance; |
||||||
|
- The `pool_size` defines the number of connections allowed by the RDS instance; |
||||||
|
- `secret_key_base` is a random password used for BlockScout internally. It is highly recommended to gernerate your own `secret_key_base` before the deployment. For instance, you can do it via `openssl rand -base64 64 | tr -d '\n'` command; |
||||||
|
- `new_relic_app_name` and `new_relic_license_key` should usually stay empty unless you want and know how to configure New Relic integration; |
||||||
|
- `elixir_version` - is an Elixir version used in BlockScout release; |
||||||
|
- `chain_trace_endpoint` - maps chains to the URLs of HTTP RPC endpoints, which represents a node where state pruning is disabled (archive node) and tracing is enabled. If you don't have a trace endpoint, you can simply copy values from `chains` variable; |
||||||
|
- `chain_ws_endpoint` - maps chains to the URLs of HTTP RPCs that supports websockets. This is required to get the real-time updates. Can be the same as `chains` if websocket is enabled there (but make sure to use`ws(s)` instead of `htpp(s)` protocol); |
||||||
|
- `chain_jsonrpc_variant` - a client used to connect to the network. Can be `parity`, `geth`, etc; |
||||||
|
- `chain_logo` - maps chains to the it logos. Place your own logo at `apps/block_scout_web/assets/static` and specify a relative path at `chain_logo` variable; |
||||||
|
- `chain_coin` - a name of the coin used in each particular chain; |
||||||
|
- `chain_network` - usually, a name of the organization keeping group of networks, but can represent a name of any logical network grouping you want; |
||||||
|
- `chain_subnetwork` - a name of the network to be shown at BlockScout; |
||||||
|
- `chain_network_path` - a relative URL path which will be used as an endpoint for defined chain. For example, if we will have our BlockScout at `blockscout.com` domain and place `core` network at `/poa/core`, then the resulting endpoint will be `blockscout.com/poa/core` for this network. |
||||||
|
- `chain_network_icon` - maps the chain name to the network navigation icon at apps/block_scout_web/lib/block_scout_web/templates/icons without .eex extension |
||||||
|
- `chain_graphiql_transaction` - is a variable that maps chain to a random transaction hash on that chain. This hash will be used to provide a sample query in the GraphIQL Playground. |
||||||
|
- `chain_block_transformer` - will be `clique` for clique networks like Rinkeby and Goerli, and `base` for the rest; |
||||||
|
- `chain_heart_beat_timeout`, `chain_heart_command` - configs for the integrated heartbeat. First describes a timeout after the command described at the second variable will be executed; |
||||||
|
- Each of the `chain_db_*` variables configures the database for each chain. Each chain will have the separate RDS instance. |
||||||
|
- `chain_blockscout_version` - is a text at the footer of BlockScout instance. Usually represents the current BlockScout version. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Blockscout related variables |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- `blockscout_repo` - a direct link to the Blockscout repo; |
||||||
|
- `chain_branch` - maps branch at `blockscout_repo` to each chain; |
||||||
|
- Specify the `chain_merge_commit` variable if you want to merge any of the specified `chains` with the commit in the other branch. Usually may be used to update production branches with the releases from master branch; |
||||||
|
- `skip_fetch` - if this variable is set to `true` , BlockScout repo will not be cloned and the process will start from building the dependencies. Use this variable to prevent playbooks from overriding manual changes in cloned repo; |
||||||
|
- `ps_*` variables represents a connection details to the test Postgres database. This one will not be installed automatically, so make sure `ps_*` credentials are valid before starting the deployment; |
||||||
|
- `chain_custom_environment` - is a map of variables that should be overrided when deploying the new version of Blockscout. Can be omitted. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
*Note*: `chain_custom_environment` variables will not be propagated to the Parameter Store at production servers and need to be set there manually. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Database Storage Required |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The configuration variable `db_storage` can be used to define the amount of storage allocated to your RDS instance. The chart below shows an estimated amount of storage that is required to index individual chains. The `db_storage` can only be adjusted 1 time in a 24 hour period on AWS. |

# Deploying the Infrastructure |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. Ensure all the [infrastructure prerequisites](#Prerequisites-for-deploying-infrastructure) are installed and has the right version number; |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2. Create the AWS access key and secret access key for user with [sufficient permissions](#AWS); |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
3. Merge `infrastructure` and `all` config template files into single config file: |
||||||
|
```bash |
||||||
|
cat group_vars/infrastructure.yml.example group_vars/all.yml.example > group_vars/all.yml |
||||||
|
``` |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
4. Set the variables at `group_vars/all.yml` config template file as described at the [corresponding part of instruction](#Configuration); |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
5. Run `ansible-playbook deploy_infra.yml`; |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- During the deployment the ["diffs didn't match"](#error-applying-plan-diffs-didnt-match) error may occur, it will be ignored automatically. If Ansible play recap shows 0 failed plays, then the deployment was successful despite the error. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Optionally, you may want to check the variables the were uploaded to the [Parameter Store](https://console.aws.amazon.com/systems-manager/parameters) at AWS Console. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||

# Deploying BlockScout |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. Ensure all the [BlockScout prerequisites](#Prerequisites-for-deploying-blockscout) are installed and has the right version number; |
||||||
|
2. Merge `blockscout` and `all` config template files into single config file: |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash |
||||||
|
cat group_vars/blockscout.yml.example group_vars/all.yml.example > group_vars/all.yml |
||||||
|
``` |
||||||
|
**Note!** All three configuration files are compatible to each other, so you can simply `cat group_vars/blockscout.yml.example >> group_vars/all.yml` if you already do have the `all.yml` file after the deploying of infrastructure. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
3. Set the variables at `group_vars/all.yml` config template file as described at the [corresponding part of instruction](#Configuration); |
||||||
|
**Note!** Use `chain_custom_environment` to update the variables in each deployment. Map each deployed chain with variables as they should appear at the Parameter Store. Check the example at `group_vars/blockscout.yml.example` config file. `chain_*` variables will be ignored during BlockScout software deployment. |

||||||
|
|
||||||
|
5. Run `ansible-playbook deploy_software.yml`; |
||||||
|
6. When the prompt appears, check that server is running and there is no visual artifacts. The server will be launched at port 4000 at the same machine where you run the Ansible playbooks. If you face any errors you can either fix it or cancel the deployment by pressing **Ctrl+C** and then pressing **A** when additionally prompted. |
||||||
|
7. When server is ready to be deployed simply press enter and deployer will upload Blockscout to the appropriate S3. |
||||||
|
8. Two other prompts will appear to ensure your will on updating the Parameter Store variables and deploying the BlockScout through the CodeDeploy. Both **yes** and **true** will be interpreted as the confirmation. |
||||||
|
9. Monitor and manage your deployment at [CodeDeploy](https://console.aws.amazon.com/codesuite/codedeploy/applications) service page at AWS Console. |
||||||

# Destroying Provisioned Infrastructure |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
First of all you have to remove autoscaling groups (ASG) deployed via CodeDeploy manually since Terraform doesn't track them and will miss them during the automatic destroy process. Once ASG is deleted you can use `ansible-playbook destroy.yml` playbook to remove the rest of generated infrastructure. Make sure to check the playbook output since in some cases it might not be able to delete everything. Check the error description for details. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Note!** While Terraform is stateful, Ansible is stateless, so if you modify `bucket` or `dynamodb_table` variables and run `destroy.yml` or `deploy_infra.yml` playbooks, it will not alter the current S3/Dynamo resources names, but create a new resources. Moreover, altering `bucket` variable will make Terraform to forget about existing infrastructure and, as a consequence, redeploy it. If it absolutely necessary for you to alter the S3 or DynamoDB names you can do it manually and then change the appropriate variable accordingly. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Also note, that changing `backend` variable will force Terraform to forget about created infrastructure also, since it will start searching the current state files locally instead of remote. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Useful information |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Cleaning Deployment cache |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Despite the fact that Terraform cache is automatically cleared automatically before each deployment, you may also want to force the cleaning process manually. To do this simply run the `ansible-playbook clean.yml` command, and Terraform cache will be cleared. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Migrating deployer to another machine |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
You can easily manipulate your deployment from any machine with sufficient prerequisites. If `upload_debug_info_to_s3` variable is set to true, the deployer will automatically upload your `all.yml` file to the s3 bucket, so you can easily download it to any other machine. Simply download this file to your `group_vars` folder and your new deployer will pick up the current deployment instead of creating a new one. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Attaching the existing RDS instance to the current deployment |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In some cases you may want not to create a new database, but to add the existing one to use within the deployment. In order to do that configure all the proper values at `group_vars/all.yml` including yours DB ID and name and execute the `ansible-playbook attach_existing_rds.yml` command. This will add the current DB instance into Terraform-managed resource group. After that run `ansible-playbook deploy_infra.yml` as usually. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Note 1**: while executing `ansible-playbook attach_existing_rds.yml` the S3 and DynamoDB will be automatically created (if `backend` variable is set to `true`) to store Terraform state files. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Note 2**: the actual name of your resource must include prefix that you will use in this deployment. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Example: |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Real resource: tf-poa |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`prefix` variable: tf |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`chain_db_id` variable: poa |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Note 3**: make sure MultiAZ is disabled on your database. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Note 4**: make sure that all the variables at `group_vars/all.yml` are exactly the same as at your existing DB. |
||||||
|

## Using AWS CodeDeploy to Mmnitor and manage a BlockScout deployment |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
BlockScout deployment can be managed through the AWS console. [A brief tutorial is available on our forum](https://forum.poa.network/t/monitor-and-manage-a-blockscout-deployment-using-codedeploy-in-your-aws-console/2499). |

# Common Errors and Questions |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### S3: 403 error during provisioning |
||||||
|
Usually appears if S3 bucket already exists. Remember, S3 bucket has globally unique name, so if you don't have it, it doesn't mean, that it doesn't exists at all. Login to your AWS console and try to create S3 bucket with the same name you specified at `bucket` variable to ensure. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Error Applying Plan (diffs didn't match) |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If you see something like the following: |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
``` |
||||||
|
Error: Error applying plan: |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1 error(s) occurred: |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* module.stack.aws_autoscaling_group.explorer: aws_autoscaling_group.explorer: diffs didn't match during apply. This is a bug with Terraform and should be reported as a GitHub Issue. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Please include the following information in your report: |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Terraform Version: 0.11.11 |
||||||
|
Resource ID: aws_autoscaling_group.explorer |
||||||
|
Mismatch reason: attribute mismatch: availability_zones.1252502072 |
||||||
|
``` |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This is due to a bug in Terraform, however the fix is to just rerun `ansible-playbook deploy_infra.yml` again, and Terraform will pick up where it left off. This does not always happen, but this is the current workaround if you see it. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Server doesn't start during deployment |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Even if server is configured correctly, sometimes it may not bind the appropriate 4000 port due to unknown reason. If so, simply go to the appropriate nested blockscout folder, kill and rerun server. For example, you can use the following command: `pkill beam.smp && pkill node && sleep 10 && mix phx.server`. |

## Configuring EVM Chains |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* **CSS:** Update the import instruction in `apps/block_scout_web/assets/css/theme/_variables.scss` to select a preset css file. This is reflected in the `production-${chain}` branch for each instance. For example, in the `production-xdai` branch, comment out `@import "neutral_variables` and uncomment `@import "dai-variables"`. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* **ENV:** Update the [environment variables](env-variables.md) to match the chain specs. |

|
#### Redux |
||||||
|
This project uses Redux to control the state in some pages. There are pages with real-time events that use Phoenix channels, e.g. Address page. The page state changes often depending on which events it is listening to. Redux is also used to load some contents asynchronously, see [async_listing_load.js](https://github.com/poanetwork/blockscout/blob/master/apps/block_scout_web/assets/js/lib/async_listing_load.js). |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
To understand how to build new pages that require Redux, see the [redux_helpers.js](https://github.com/poanetwork/blockscout/blob/master/apps/block_scout_web/assets/js/lib/redux_helpers.js) file. |

||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. To setup translation file. |
||||||
|
`cd apps/block_scout_web; mix gettext.extract --merge; cd -` |
||||||
|
2. To edit the new strings, go to `apps/block_scout_web/priv/gettext/en/LC_MESSAGES/default.po`. |

|
## Manual Deployment |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Below is the procedure for manual deployment of BlockScout. For automated deployment, see [ansible deployment](ansible-deployment.md). |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. `git clone https://github.com/poanetwork/blockscout` |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2. `cd blockscout` |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
3. Setup default configurations: |
||||||
|
`cp apps/explorer/config/dev.secret.exs.example apps/explorer/config/dev.secret.exs` |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`cp apps/block_scout_web/config/dev.secret.exs.example apps/block_scout_web/config/dev.secret.exs` |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
4. Update `apps/explorer/config/dev.secret.exs` |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Linux:** Update the database username and password configuration |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Mac:** Remove the `username` and `password` fields |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Optional:** Set up a default configuration for testing. `cp apps/explorer/config/test.secret.exs.example apps/explorer/config/test.secret.exs` Example usage: Changing the default Postgres port from localhost:15432 if [Boxen](https://github.com/boxen/boxen) is installed. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
5. If you have deployed previously, delete the `apps/block_scout_web/priv/static` folder. This removes static assets from the previous build. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
6. Install dependencies. `mix do deps.get, local.rebar --force, deps.compile, compile` |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
7. If not already running, start postgres: `pg_ctl -D /usr/local/var/postgres start` |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
8. Create and migrate database `mix do ecto.create, ecto.migrate` |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
*Note:* If you have run previously, drop the previous database |
||||||
|
`mix do ecto.drop, ecto.create, ecto.migrate` |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
9. Install Node.js dependencies |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- `cd apps/block_scout_web/assets; npm install && node_modules/webpack/bin/webpack.js --mode production; cd -` |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- `cd apps/explorer && npm install; cd -` |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
10. Enable HTTPS in development. The Phoenix server only runs with HTTPS. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* `cd apps/block_scout_web` |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* `mix phx.gen.cert blockscout blockscout.local; cd -` |
||||||
|
* Add blockscout and blockscout.local to your `/etc/hosts` |
||||||
|
``` |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
127.0.0.1 localhost blockscout blockscout.local |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
255.255.255.255 broadcasthost |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
::1 localhost blockscout blockscout.local |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
``` |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* If using Chrome, Enable `chrome://flags/#allow-insecure-localhost` . |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
11. Set your [environment variables](env-variables.md) as needed. For example: |
||||||
|
```bash |
||||||
|
export COIN=DAI |
||||||
|
export NETWORK_ICON=_network_icon.html |
||||||
|
export ... |
||||||
|
``` |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
12. Return to the root directory and start the Phoenix Server. `mix phx.server` |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Check your instance: |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
13. Check that there are no visual artifacts, all assets exist and there are no database errors. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
14. If there are no errors, stop BlockScout (`ctrl+c`) |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
15. Build static assets for deployment `mix phx.digest` |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
16. Delete build artifacts: |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
a. Script: `./rel/commands/clear_build.sh` |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
b. Manually: |
||||||
|
- delete `_build` & `deps` directories |
||||||
|
- delete node modules located at |
||||||
|
- `apps/block_scout_web/assets/node_modules` |
||||||
|
- & `apps/explorer/node_modules` |
||||||
|
- delete `logs/dev` directory |

|
|
||||||
|
## Memory Usage |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The work queues for building the index of all blocks, balances (coin and token), and internal transactions can grow quite large. By default, the soft-limit is 1 GiB, which can be changed in `apps/indexer/config/config.exs`: |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
``` |
||||||
|
config :indexer, memory_limit: 1 <<< 30 |
||||||
|
``` |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Memory usage is checked once per minute. If the soft-limit is reached, the shrinkable work queues will shed half their load. The shed load will be restored from the database, the same as when a restart of the server occurs, so rebuilding the work queue will be slower, but use less memory. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If all queues are at their minimum size, then no more memory can be reclaimed and an error will be logged. |

## Automating Restarts |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
By default `BlockScout` does not restart if it crashes. To enable automated restarts, set the [environment variable](env-variables.md) `HEART_COMMAND` to whatever command you run to start `BlockScout`. Configure the heart beat timeout to change how long it waits before considering the application unresponsive. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
At that point, it will kill the current blockscout instance and execute the `HEART_COMMAND`. By default a crash dump is not written unless you set `ERL_CRASH_DUMP_SECONDS` to a positive or negative integer. See the [heart](http://erlang.org/doc/man/heart.html) documentation for more information. |

# Verifying a smart contract in BlockScout |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Once verified, a smart contract or token contract's source code becomes publicly available and verifiable. This creates transparency and trust. Plus, it's easy to do! |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. Go to [blockscout.com](https://blockscout.com/), verify you are on the chain where the contract was deployed, and type the contract's address into the search bar. Your contract details should come up. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2. Select the `Code` tab to view the bytecode. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
 |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
3. In the code tab view, click the `Verify & Publish` button. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
 |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
4. On the following screen, enter your contract details: |
||||||
|
1. **Contract Address:** The `0x` address supplied on contract creation. |
||||||
|
2. **Contract Name:** Name of the class whose constructor was called in the .sol file. For example, in `contract MyContract {..` **MyContract** is the contract name. |
||||||
|
3. **Compiler:** derived from the first line in the contract `pragma solidity X.X.X`. Use the corresponding compiler version rather than the nightly build. |
||||||
|
4. **EVM Version:** [See EVM version](#evm-version) |
||||||
|
5. **Optimization:** If you enabled optimization during compilation, check yes. |
||||||
|
6. **Enter the Solidity Contract Code:** You may need to flatten your solidity code if it utilizes a library or inherits dependencies from another contract. We recommend the [POA solidity flattener](https://github.com/poanetwork/solidity-flattener) or the [truffle flattener](https://www.npmjs.com/package/truffle-flattener) |
||||||
|
7.**Constructor Arguments:** [See this post for more info](https://forum.poa.network/t/smart-contract-verification-abi-encoded-constructor-arguments/2331) |
||||||
|
8.**Libraries:** Enter the name and Ox address for any required libraries called in the called in the .sol file. |
||||||
|
9. Click the `Verify and Publish` button. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
5. If all goes well, you will see a green checkmark next to the code, and an additional tab where you can read the contract. In addition, the contract name will appear in BlockScout with any transactions related to your contract. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Troubleshooting: |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If you receive the dreaded `There was an error compiling your contract` message this means the bytecode doesn't match the supplied sourcecode. Unfortunately, there are many reasons this may be the case. Here are a few things to try: |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. Double check the compiler version is correct. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2. Check that an extra space has not been added to the end of the contract. When pasting in, an extra space may be added. Delete this and attempt to recompile. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
3. Copy, paste and verify your source code in Remix. You may find some exceptions here. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# EVM Version |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
You are asked to provide the EVM version the contract uses during the verification process. If the bytecode does not match the version, we try to verify using the latest EVM version. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For more information, see the [Solidity docs on specifying the EVM version when compiling a contract](https://solidity.readthedocs.io/en/v0.5.3/using-the-compiler.html). Note that backward compatibility is not guaranteed between each version. |

# ABI-Encoded Constructor Arguments |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If Constructor Arguments are required by the contract, you will add them to the Constructor Arguments field in [ABI hex encoded form](https://solidity.readthedocs.io/en/develop/abi-spec.html). Constructor arguments are appended to the END of the contract source bytecode when compiled by Solidity. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
An easy way to find these arguments is to compare the ‘raw input’ code in the transaction details to to the contract creation code in the code section of the contract. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. Access the contract creation TX in BlockScout. This is the transaction that created the contract, not the address of the actual contract. You should see a link to it in your wallet history. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
 |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2. Go to the transaction details page for the contract creation TX. Within the details, you will see the Raw input. Copy this input in Hex format and paste into a txt or spreadsheet where you will compare against a second ABI code. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
 |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
3. Go to the contract creation address. You can access through the transaction details at the top: |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
 |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
4. In Contract Address Details, click on the Code tab. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
 |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
5. Copy the contract creation code. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
 |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
6. Paste into a document next to the original raw input ABI. This will allow you to compare the two. Anything that appears at the **END** of the Raw input code that does not exist at the end of the Contract Code is the ABI code for the constructor arguments. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
 |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
7. The code may differ in other ways, but the constructor arguments will appear at the end. Copy this extra code and paste into the constructor arguments field along with the other information needed to verify your contract. |

## Tracing |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Blockscout supports tracing via [Spandex](http://git@github.com:spandex-project/spandex.git). Each application has its own internally configured tracer. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
To enable tracing, visit each application's `config/<env>.ex` and change `disabled?: true` to `disabled?: false`. Do this for |
||||||
|
each application you'd like included in your trace data. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Currently, only [Datadog](https://www.datadoghq.com/) is supported as a |
||||||
|
tracing backend, but more will be added soon. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### DataDog |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If you would like to use DataDog, after enabling `Spandex`, set |
||||||
|
`"DATADOG_HOST"` and `"DATADOG_PORT"` environment variables to the |
||||||
|
host/port that your Datadog agent is running on. For more information on |
||||||
|
Datadog and the Datadog agent, see the [documentation](https://docs.datadoghq.com/). |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Other |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If you want to use a different backend, remove the |
||||||
|
`SpandexDatadog.ApiServer` `Supervisor.child_spec` from |
||||||
|
`Explorer.Application` and follow any instructions provided in `Spandex` |
||||||
|
for setting up that backend. |

## Umbrella Project Organization |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
BlockScout is an Elixir [umbrella project](https://elixir-lang.org/getting-started/mix-otp/dependencies-and-umbrella-projects.html). Each directory under `apps/` is a separate [Mix](https://hexdocs.pm/mix/Mix.html) project and [OTP application](https://hexdocs.pm/elixir/Application.html), but the projects can use each other as a dependency in their `mix.exs`. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Each OTP application has a restricted domain. |
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Directory | OTP Application | Namespace | Purpose | |
||||||
|
|:------------------------|:--------------------|:------------------|:--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| |
||||||
|
| `apps/ethereum_jsonrpc` | `:ethereum_jsonrpc` | `EthereumJSONRPC` | Ethereum JSONRPC client. It is allowed to know `Explorer`'s param format, but it cannot directly depend on `:explorer` | |
||||||
|
| `apps/explorer` | `:explorer` | `Explorer` | Storage for the indexed chain. Can read and write to the backing storage. MUST be able to boot in a read-only mode when run independently from `:indexer`, so cannot depend on `:indexer` as that would start `:indexer` indexing. | |
||||||
|
| `apps/block_scout_web` | `:block_scout_web` | `BlockScoutWeb` | Phoenix interface to `:explorer`. The minimum interface to allow web access should go in `:block_scout_web`. Any business rules or interface not tied directly to `Phoenix` or `Plug` should go in `:explorer`. MUST be able to boot in a read-only mode when run independently from `:indexer`, so cannot depend on `:indexer` as that would start `:indexer` indexing. | |
||||||
|
| `apps/indexer` | `:indexer` | `Indexer` | Uses `:ethereum_jsonrpc` to index chain and batch import data into `:explorer`. Any process, `Task`, or `GenServer` that automatically reads from the chain and writes to `:explorer` should be in `:indexer`. This restricts automatic writes to `:indexer` and read-only mode can be achieved by not running `:indexer`. | |
