This tutorial will demonstrate how to build a subgraph and deploy it locally

Building & Deploying Subgraph (local node)

Install the graph-cli

https://github.com/graphprotocol/graph-cli#installation

Build your own graph-indexer local node

Copy paste the below docker-compose file and replace services.graph-node.environment.ethereum accordingly to the network:
mainnet s0 : mainnet:archive,traces:https://a.api.s0.t.hmny.io\ mainnet s1 : mainnet:archive,traces:https://a.api.s1.t.hmny.io

and run your indexer node

docker-compose up -d
Creating network "thegraph_default" with the default driver
Creating ipfs ...
Creating postgres ...
Creating postgres done
Creating ipfs ... done
Creating indexer ... 
Creating indexer ... done

docker logs hmy_indexer -f should show the indexer synching with the harmony chain

A few component are installed

Management: https://localhost:8020/ where subgraph are being created/deployed/deleted

Metrics / playground: https://localhost:8030/

Visit your playground using the URL http://127.0.0.1:8030/graphql/playground and start playing around with graphQL API.

An example of query you can use to show subgraph currently being indexed would be :

query {
  indexingStatuses {
    subgraph
    entityCount
    fatalError {
      handler
    }
    nonFatalErrors {
      handler
    }
    chains {
      network
      latestBlock {
        number
      }
      chainHeadBlock {
        number
      }
      lastHealthyBlock {
        number
      }
    }
  }
}

Right now of course, the result is empty

{
  "data": {
    "indexingStatuses": []
  }
}

Our first subgraph

lets use blocklytics/ethereum-blocks subgraph as example

git clone https://github.com/blocklytics/ethereum-blocks
cd ethereum-blocks

Edit package.json file and add these lines

"create-harmony": "graph create --node http://localhost:8020 harmony/blocks",
"deploy-harmony": "graph deploy --node http://localhost:8020 --ipfs http://localhost:5001 harmony/blocks",

{% hint style="info" %} It is highly recommended to minimize the number of blocks to be indexed to avoid putting load on the RPCs and to speed up the usage of your subgraph/application {% endhint %}

Update the manifest

Update the manifest subgraph.yaml file datasources[0]['network'] from rinkeby to mainnet or testnet accordingly to how you edited the network in your docker-compose.yaml
if there is no need to index the entire blockchain, you can add an attribute startBlock to speed up the sync : datasources[0]['source']['startBlock']

Also, update the subgraph.yaml apiVersion: 0.0.5

{% hint style="info" %} It is highly recommended to minimize the number of blocks to be indexed to avoid putting load on the RPCs and to speed up the usage of your subgraph/application {% endhint %}

Create and deploy the subgraph

yarn codegen
yarn build
yarn create-harmony 
yarn deploy-harmony

Sync begins and you are good to query your subgraph http://localhost:8000/subgraphs/name/harmony/blocks/graphql

Note that the above example query should now show your something similar to the below

{
  "data": {
    "indexingStatuses": [
      {
        "chains": [
          {
            "chainHeadBlock": {
              "number": "12887470"
            },
            "lastHealthyBlock": null,
            "latestBlock": {
              "number": "10701810"
            },
            "network": "testnet"
          }
        ],
        "entityCount": "1812",
        "fatalError": null,
        "nonFatalErrors": [],
        "subgraph": "QmVDqqTJZM3ZHizSubG2H5b1vQ1Jp7iMD6Sc94A9zyRnAK"
      }
    ]
  }
}

data['indexingStatuses'][0]['chains'][0]['latestBlock']['number'] will indicate the last block synched

{% hint style="warning" %} check your indexer log if the sync is stuck docker logs indexer -f --since 1m {% endhint %}
