Aleo Explorer

The "official" instance

Description

An open-source blockchain explorer for Aleo.

It contains a node that connects to another peer to fetch blockchain data. This node is NOT validating blocks. Only connect to peers that you trust.

Prerequisites

• Python 3.10 or 3.11.4+ (3.11.0 - 3.11.3 won't work)
• Postgres 12+ (pg_hint_plan for best performance, shared_preload_libraries recommended) not being used right now
• Redis not too old
• Rust latest stable
• aleo-explorer-rust
• aleo-explorer-wasm
• (optional) setproctitle for custom process names

Usage

1. Import the database schema from pg_dump.sql.
2. Configure through .env file. See .env.example for reference.
3. Install aleo-explorer-rust to the current Python environment.
4. Compile aleo-explorer-wasm, install to webui/static/rust{.js,_bg.wasm} with wasm-bindgen.
5. Run main.py.

Use in docker

docker-compose up -d

A better frontend?

A new frontend is being developed in aleo-explorer-frontend. You can preview it if you can find the deployment URL.

As such, the current frontend code contained in this repository (webui) is planned to be deprecated. The new frontend uses webapi to communicate with the backend.
