Deploy an Indexer (Subgraph) on Alvey Chain with The Graph
Step-by-step guide for deploying a subgraph on Alvey Chain using The Graph for efficient blockchain data indexing and querying.
Creating a subgraph on Alvey using Mobula’s infrastructure is a straightforward task. This guide will help you set up and deploy your subgraph on the Alvey network efficiently.
What you’ll need
- Basic knowledge of The Graph and subgraphs.
- Your subgraph project files
- The Graph CLI installed
- A Mobula API key (for authentication)
Walkthrough
Prepare Your Subgraph
Set up your subgraph for Alvey Chain. Update your subgraph.yaml file to reference Alvey specific contracts and events. If you don’t have a subgraph, you can clone the Uniswap V2 (AlveySwap) subgraph template and adapt it for Alvey Chain:
Install Dependencies
Make sure you have The Graph CLI installed:
Build Your Subgraph
Compile your subgraph before deployment:
Create the Subgraph
Use the following command to deploy your subgraph:
Deploy to Mobula's Alvey Chain Node
Use the following command to deploy your subgraph:
Authenticate
Upon request, provide your Mobula API key for authentication. For additional guidance on acquiring and utilizing your API key, see the authentication section.
Monitor Deployment
After deployment, you’ll receive a URL to monitor your subgraph’s indexing progress and status.
Best Practices
- Keep your subgraph up to date to ensure it aligns with the latest Alvey Chain changes.
- Conduct comprehensive testing on a testnet before mainnet deployment.
- Continuously monitor performance and fine-tune queries for maximum efficiency.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter deployment problems:
- Double-check your
subgraph.yamlconfiguration. - Verify that the network name and Mobula node URLs are correct.
- Make sure your API key is valid and properly authorized.
