Statistics

Stats (Statistics) - is a service designed to calculate and present statistical information from a Blockscout instance. This service establishes a connection with the Blockscout database and periodically updates a collection of charts, including lines and counters, based on a predefined schedule. The calculated data is then made available through a REST API, allowing users to access and utilize the statistical information.

The service consists of 2 parts, a stats calculation library and a transport layer that serves requests:

  • stats - implements actual chart calculation logic as a library and exposes an interface to be used by the transport layer;
  • A transport layer that implements some APIs over the service (stats-server).

Requirements

  • Postgresql database for this service
  • Access to Blockscout database

Build

Using docker

  • You can build the provided sources using Dockerfile

  • Alternatively, you can use docker images from our registry

Using docker-compose

Building from source

cargo install --git https://github.com/blockscout/blockscout-rs stats-server
stats-server

Config

Env

Variable Description Default value
STATS__DB_URL Postgres URL to stats db ''
STATS__BLOCKSCOUT_DB_URL Postgres URL to blockscout db ''
STATS__CREATE_DATABASE Boolean. Creates database on start false
STATS__RUN_MIGRATIONS Boolean. Runs migrations on start false
STATS__CHARTS_CONFIG Path to charts.toml config file ./config/charts.toml
STATS__FORCE_UPDATE_ON_START Boolean. Fully recalculates all charts on start false
STATS__CONCURRENT_START_UPDATES Integer. Amount of concurrent charts update on start 3

Charts config

Blockscout provides a collection of predefined charts to visualize statistics. You can enable or disable these charts by modifying the charts.toml file. The default configuration for the charts can be found here. You can use this file as a template for customization.

To remove unnecessary or unrelated charts, simply open the charts.toml file and delete the corresponding chart entries. In addition to modifying the charts.toml file, it is important to provide the STATS__CHARTS_CONFIG variable with the path to the updated configuration file.

For development

Manual run

just start-postgres

  • Start blockscout instance with varialbe DATABASE_URL=postgres://postgres:[email protected]:5432/blockscout

  • Start stats server:

export STATS__RUN_MIGRATIONS=true
export STATS__DB_URl="postgres://postgres:admin@localhost:5432/stats"
export STATS__BLOCKSCOUT_DB_URL="postgres://postgres:admin@localhost:5432/blockscout" 
cargo run --bin stats-server

Docker compose

Alternatively, you can use docker-compose.dev.yml for simplicity.

  • Set ETHEREUM_JSONRPC_HTTP_URL and ETHEREUM_JSONRPC_TRACE_URL to ethereum node you have access to (in backend (Blockscout) service)
  • Update ETHEREUM_JSONRPC_VARIANT if necessary
  • Run docker compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml up -d
