Changes (Overview)

Launch of Scalar on Mainnet

The main change in this release is the replacement of State Channels with Scalar (using allocation-base receipts for now). Scalar enables highly scalable micro-transactions for query fees.

At a high level this means:

  • Along with every query, indexers now receive an updated Scalar receipt via the Scalar-Receipt header.
  • Receipts are collected via a /collect-receipts endpoint on the gateways. This will convert them into a signed (query fee) voucher that can then be redeemed via a new AllocationExchange contract on chain.

With this release, the indexer infrastructure changes as follows:

  • A new INDEXER_AGENT_COLLECT_RECEIPTS_ENDPOINT / --collect-receipts-endpoint configuration option is added to Indexer Agent to configure the endpoint that converts bundles of receipts into query fee vouchers.
  • A new INDEXER_SERVICE_CLIENT_SIGNER_ADDRESS / --client-signer-address configuration option is added to Indexer Service to configure the signer of the incoming receipts. For now, this limits indexers to being able to serve a single client, which is considered a temporary measure until the allocation-based receipts are replaced with receipts based on Vector transfers.

Network Subgraph Indexing

So far, indexers had to rely on https://gateway.network.thegraph.com/network to provide network subgraph data like allocations, subgraph deployments and more. With this release, indexers can index this network subgraph themselves and still fall back to https://gateway.network.thegraph.com/network if this subgraph hasn't fully synced yet or has failed locally.

In order to achieve this, the following infrastructure changes need to be applied:

  • Indexer agent now exports an HTTP server at port 8002. This needs to be made available to the indexer service.
  • Indexer agent needs to have the following configuration set:
    • INDEXER_AGENT_NETWORK_SUBGRAPH_ENDPOINT=https://gateway.network.thegraph.com/network (alternative: --network-subgraph-endpoint)
    • INDEXER_AGENT_NETWORK_SUBGRAPH_DEPLOYMENT=QmaUBw7sr8pBrwNgz6JkbmmGoUU7KJSaeRvCaY3NPDbQ7A (alternative: --network-subgraph-deployment)
  • Indexer service needs to have the following configuration set:
    • INDEXER_SERVICE_NETWORK_SUBGRAPH_ENDPOINT=http://indexer-agent:8002/network (alternative: --network-subgraph-endpoint)

This will make the agent index the network subgraph itself and serve it at :8002/network by default (this can be changed with --syncing-port), falling back to the gateway endpoint if there are any problems with the network subgraph. The service will then query the network subgraph through the agent.
