Deploying an Indexer (Subgraph) on Scroll with The Graph
Find out how to deploy a subgraph on Scroll using The Graph for efficient blockchain data indexing and querying.
Deploying a subgraph on Scroll with Mobula’s infrastructure is a simple process. This guide will take you through the steps to get your subgraph running on the Scroll network.
What you’ll need
- Fundamental understanding of The Graph and subgraphs.
- Your subgraph project files ready.
- The Graph CLI installed.
- A Mobula API key (for authentication).
Walkthrough
Prepare Your Subgraph
Make sure your subgraph is configured for Scroll. Update your subgraph.yaml file to point to Scroll-specific contracts and events. If you don’t have a subgraph, you can clone the Uniswap V2 (SushiSwap) subgraph template and customize it for Scroll:
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 Scroll Node
Use the following command to deploy your subgraph:
Authenticate
When asked, enter your Mobula API key for authentication. For further details on acquiring and using your API key, refer to the authentication section.
Monitor Deployment
Following deployment, you’ll be provided with a URL to track your subgraph’s indexing progress and status.
Best Practices
- Keep your subgraph regularly updated to ensure it remains compatible with the latest Scroll network changes.
- Thoroughly test your subgraph on a testnet before deploying to the mainnet.
- Continuously monitor its performance and optimize queries for greater efficiency.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues during deployment:
- Review your
subgraph.yamlconfiguration. - Confirm that you’re using the correct network name and Mobula node URLs.
- Ensure your API key is valid and has the required permissions.
