## @0xproject/pipeline
This repository contains scripts used for scraping data from the Ethereum blockchain into SQL tables for analysis by the 0x team.
## Contributing
We strongly recommend that the community help us make improvements and determine the future direction of the protocol. To report bugs within this package, please create an issue in this repository.
Please read our [contribution guidelines](../../CONTRIBUTING.md) before getting started.
### Install dependencies:
```bash
yarn install
```
### Build
```bash
yarn build
```
### Clean
```bash
yarn clean
```
### Lint
```bash
yarn lint
```
### Migrations
Create a new migration: `yarn migrate:create --name MigrationNameInCamelCase`
Run migrations: `yarn migrate:run`
Revert the most recent migration (CAUTION: may result in data loss!): `yarn migrate:revert`
## Testing
There are several test scripts in **package.json**. You can run all the tests
with `yarn test:all` or run certain tests seprately by following the
instructions below. Some tests may not work out of the box on certain platforms
or operating systems (see the "Database tests" section below).
### Unit tests
The unit tests can be run with `yarn test`. These tests don't depend on any
services or databases and will run in any environment that can run Node.
### Database tests
Database integration tests can be run with `yarn test:db`. These tests will
attempt to automatically spin up a Postgres database via Docker. If this doesn't
work you have two other options:
1. Set the `DOCKER_SOCKET` environment variable to a valid socket path to use
for communicating with Docker.
2. Start Postgres manually and set the `ZEROEX_DATA_PIPELINE_TEST_DB_URL`
environment variable. If this is set, the tests will use your existing
Postgres database instead of trying to create one with Docker.
## Running locally
`pipeline` requires access to a PostgreSQL database. The easiest way to start
Postgres is via Docker. Depending on your platform, you may need to prepend
`sudo` to the following command:
```
docker run --rm -d -p 5432:5432 --name pipeline_postgres postgres:11-alpine
```
This will start a Postgres server with the default username and database name
(`postgres` and `postgres`). You should set the environment variable as follows:
```
export ZEROEX_DATA_PIPELINE_DB_URL=postgresql://postgres@localhost/postgres
```
First thing you will need to do is run the migrations:
```
yarn migrate:run
```
Now you can run scripts locally:
```
node packages/pipeline/lib/src/scripts/pull_radar_relay_orders.js
```
To stop the Postgres server (you may need to add `sudo`):
```
docker stop pipeline_postgres
```
This will remove all data from the database.
If you prefer, you can also install Postgres with e.g.,
[Homebrew](https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Homebrew) or
[Postgress.app](https://postgresapp.com/). Keep in mind that you will need to
set the`ZEROEX_DATA_PIPELINE_DB_URL` environment variable to a valid
[PostgreSQL connection url](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3582552/postgresql-connection-url)

## Adding new data to the pipeline
1. Create an entity in the _entities_ directory. Entities directly mirror our
database schemas. We follow the practice of having "dumb" entities, so
entity classes should typically not have any methods.
2. Create a migration using the `yarn migrate:create` command. Create/update
tables as needed. Remember to fill in both the `up` and `down` methods. Try
to avoid data loss as much as possible in your migrations.
3. Add basic tests for your entity and migrations to the **test/entities/**
directory.
4. Create a class or function in the **data_sources/** directory for getting
raw data. This code should abstract away pagination and rate-limiting as
much as possible.
5. Create a class or function in the **parsers/** directory for converting the
raw data into an entity. Also add tests in the **tests/** directory to test
the parser.
6. Create an executable script in the **scripts/** directory for putting
everything together. Your script can accept environment variables for things
like API keys. It should pull the data, parse it, and save it to the
database. Scripts should be idempotent and atomic (when possible). What this
means is that your script may be responsible for determining _which_ data
needs to be updated. For example, you may need to query the database to find
the most recent block number that we have already pulled, then pull new data
starting from that block number.
7. Run the migrations and then run your new script locally and verify it works
as expected.
#### Additional guidelines and tips:
* Table names should be plural and separated by underscores (e.g.,
`exchange_fill_events`).
* Any table which contains data which comes directly from a third-party source
should be namespaced in the `raw` PostgreSQL schema.
* Column names in the database should be separated by underscores (e.g.,
`maker_asset_type`).
* Field names in entity classes (like any other fields in TypeScript) should
be camel-cased (e.g., `makerAssetType`).
* All timestamps should be stored as milliseconds since the Unix Epoch.
* Use the `BigNumber` type for TypeScript code which deals with 256-bit
numbers from smart contracts or for any case where we are dealing with large
floating point numbers.
* [TypeORM documentation](http://typeorm.io/#/) is pretty robust and can be a
helpful resource.
