Running

No-code Project

You can run the no-code project really easily with the CLI toolset.

graphql API can only be ran when you have a postgres storage setup in your YAML.

indexer and graphql
rindexer start all

You can change the GraphQL port by doing --port [number] in both all and graphql commands above.

Health Monitoring

When you start rindexer with indexing enabled, a health monitoring server automatically starts on port 8080. This provides real-time insights into your indexing infrastructure status.

Quick Health Check

Access the health endpoint at http://localhost:8080/health to get system status:

{
  "status": "healthy",
  "services": {
    "database": "healthy",
    "indexing": "healthy", 
    "sync": "healthy"
  },
  "indexing": {
    "active_tasks": 2,
    "is_running": true
  }
}

Health Server Lifecycle

  • rindexer start indexer (with end_block): Short-lived - dies when historical indexing completes
  • rindexer start indexer (no end_block): Long-lived - stays alive for live indexing
  • rindexer start graphql: No health server - health monitoring not available
  • rindexer start all: Long-lived - follows GraphQL server lifecycle

Rust Project

If you want to run this with docker support for the postgres first run:

docker compose up -d

Then to run the the rust project you can run the following command:

everything
cargo run

We also advise you in production to run your rust projects in release mode, you can run it in release mode using

cargo run --release

You can also do other fancy production builds with other frameworks like jemalloc and other flags, but we will leave that to you to explore.
