Getting Setup

To get started creating a Chainwalker, Flipside will share a private Github repository with your team that contains the following boilerplate structure:

schema/
   |--block_schema.json
   |--transaction_schema.json
parsing/
   ...your custom parsing code...
Dockerfile
get_height.sh
parse_blocks.sh

schema/ -- this directory contains json files representing the decoded schemas specific to your chain

parsing/ -- this directory contains your custom parsing code

Flipside utilizes two bash scripts that serves as the entrypoints to your parser:

• get_height.sh - retrieves the best block height

• parse_blocks.sh - accepts an array of block heights and returns an array of fully decoded data

The Dockerfile containerizes your environment and allows the Chainwalkers framework to remain language agnostic.
