type decoding for node-template

[sergeibadass]

I managed to boot up a sub-archive for my own chain. But there is not the EXTRINSIC table as shown in Kusama-archive in this Substrate Webinar. Can't even find the decoder.rs.

Am I missing something? Or is it a future feature? Any guide on how to implement it myself?

Hello @sergeibadass! Substrate archive on master does not currently have type-decoding, the branch for that is the type-decoding branch and PR #91 . However, it is fairly outdated with all the activity happening in master and #134 landing soon. I hope to get back to it in the near future, however. #132 is tracking the status of type decoding in archive if you'd like more consistent updates

@insipx thanks! May I ask whats the anticipated timeline to finish the desub integration?

What's the best alternative solution to real-time or near-real-time index SUBSTRATE blocks into relational DB?

There are some projects that poll substrate-api-sidecar in order to do indexing. One I know of is: https://github.com/kianenigma/substrate-api-sidecar-dump
