A customizable view of on transactions of interest. +> +> 2\. A block and transaction cache. +> +> 3\. Arbitrary code executions using a transaction (and its block) as +> input. + +Using an EVM RPC endpoint, the **eth-monitor** tool will retrieve blocks +within a given range and provides arbitrary processing of each +transaction. + +A collection of options is provided to control the behavior of which +block ranges to sync, which criteria to use for display and cache, and +what code to execute for matching transactions. Details on each topic +can be found in the **SYNCING**, **MATCHING ADDRESSES** and **DEFINING +FILTERS** sections below, respectively. + +Example executions of the tool can be found in the **EXAMPLES** section. + +## OPTIONS + +**-0** +Omit newline to output + +**--address ***address* +Add an address of interest to match any role. Complements +**--address-file***.* + +**-c ***config_dir, ***--config ***config_dir* +Load configuration files from given directory. All files with an .ini +extension will be loaded, of which all must contain valid ini file data. + +**--dumpconfig ***format* +Output configuration settings rendered from environment and inputs. +Valid arguments are *ini for ini file output, and env for environment +variable output. See ***CONFIGURATION***.* + +**--env-prefix** +Environment prefix for variables to overwrite configuration. Example: If +**--env-prefix*** is set to ***FOO*** then configuration variable +***BAR_BAZ*** would be set by environment variable ***FOO_BAZ_BAR***. +Also see ***ENVIRONMENT***.* + +**--excludes-file ***file* +Load address exclude matching rules from file. See **MATCHING +ADDRESSES***.* + +**--exec ***address* +Add an address of interest to executable address array. Complements +**--address-file***.* + +**--filter ***module* +Add code execution filter to all matched transactions. The argument must +be a python module path. Several filters may be added by supplying the +option multiple times. Filters will be executed in the order the options +are given. See **DEFINING FILTERS*** section of ***eth-monitor (1)*** +for more details.* + +**--height** +Block height at which to query state for. Does not apply to +transactions. + +**-i ***chain_spec, ***--chain-spec ***chain_spec* +Chain specification string, in the format +\:\:\:\. Example: +"evm:london:1:ethereum". Overrides the *RPC_CREDENTIALS configuration +setting.* + +**--include-default ** +Match all addresses by default. Addresses may be excluded using +--excludes-file. If this is set, --input, --output, --exec and +--includes-file will have no effect. + +**--includes-file ***file* +Load address include matching rules from file. See **MATCHING +ADDRESSES***.* + +**--input ***address* +Add an address of interest to inputs (recipients) array. Complements +**--address-file***.* + +**-n ***namespace, ***--namespace ***namespace* +Load given configuration namespace. Configuration will be loaded from +the immediate configuration subdirectory with the same name. + +**--no-logs** +Turn of logging completely. Negates **-v*** and ***-vv** + +**--output ***address* +Add an address of interest to outputs (sender) array. Complements +**--address-file***.* + +**-p***, ***--rpc-provider** +Fully-qualified URL of RPC provider. Overrides the *RPC_PROVIDER +configuration setting.* + +**--raw** +Produce output most optimized for machines. + +**--renderer ***module* +Add output renderer filter to all matched transactions. The argument +must be a python module path. Several renderers may be added by +supplying the option multiple times. See **RENDERERS*** section of +***eth-monitor (1)*** for more details.* + +**--rpc-dialect** +RPC backend dialect. If specified it *may help with encoding and +decoding issues. Overrides the RPC_DIALECT configuration setting.* + +**--store-block-data ** +Store block data in cache for matching transactions. Requires +**--cache-dir***.* + +**--store-tx-data ** +Store transaction data in cache for matching transactions. Requires +**--cache-dir***.* + +**-u***, ***--unsafe** +Allow addresses that do not pass checksum. + +**-v** +Verbose. Show logs for important state changes. + +**-vv** +Very verbose. Show logs with debugging information. + +**--x-address ***address* +Add an address of interest to match any role. + +**--x-exec ***address* +Add an address of disinterest to executable address array. + +**--x-input ***address* +Add an address of disinterest to inputs (recipients) array. + +**--x-output ***address* +Add an address of disinterest to outputs (sender) array. + +# CONFIGURATION + +All configuration settings may be overriden both by environment +variables, or by overriding settings with the contents of ini-files in +the directory defined by the **-c*** option.* + +The active configuration, with values assigned from environment and +arguments, can be output using the **--dumpconfig*** format option. Note +that entries having keys prefixed with underscore (e.g. \_SEQ) are not +actual configuration settings, and thus cannot be overridden with +environment variables.* + +To refer to a configuration setting by environment variables, the +*section and key are concatenated together with an underscore, and +transformed to upper-case. For example, the configuration variable +FOO_BAZ_BAR refers to an ini-file entry as follows:* + + [foo] + bar_baz = xyzzy + +In the **ENVIRONMENT*** section below, the relevant configuration +settings for this tool is listed along with a short description of its +meaning.* + +Some configuration settings may also be overriden by command line +options. Also note that the use of the **-n*** and ***--env-prefix*** +options affect how environment and configuration is read. The effects of +options on how configuration settings are affective is described in the +respective ***OPTIONS*** section.* + +# MATCHING ADDRESSES + +By default, addresses to match against transactions need to be +explicitly specified. This behavior can be reversed with the +**--include-default*** option. Addresses to match are defined using the +***--input***, ***--output*** and ***--exec*** options. Addresses +specified multiple times will be deduplicated.* + +Inclusion rules may also be loaded from file by specifying the +**--includes-file*** and ***--excludes-file*** options. Each file must +specify the outputs, inputs and exec addresses as comma separated lists +respectively, separated by tabs.* + +In the current state of this tool, address matching will affect all +parts of the processing; cache, code execution and rendering. + +# SYNCING + +When a sync is initiated, the state of this sync is persisted. This way, +previous syncs that did not complete for some reason will be resumed +where they left off. + +A special sync type **--head*** starts syncing at the current head of +the chain, and continue to sync until interrupted. When resuming sync, a +new sync range between the current block head and the block height at +which the previous ***--head*** sync left off will automatically be +created.* + +Syncs can be forced to (re)run for ranges regardless of previous state +by using the **--single*** option. However, there is no protection in +place from preventing code filters from being executed again on the same +transaction when this is done. See ***DEFINING FILTERS*** below.* + +# CACHE + +When syncing, the hash of a block and transaction matching the address +criteria will be stored in the cache. The hashes can be used for future +data lookups. + +If **--store-block-data*** and/or ***--store-tx-data*** is set, a copy +of the block and/or transaction data will also be stored, respectively.* + +# RENDERING + +Rendering in the context of **eth-monitor*** refers to a formatted +output stream that occurs independently of caching and code execution.* + +Filters for rendering may be specified by specifying python modules to +the **--renderer*** option. This option may be specified multiple +times.* + +Rendering filters will be executed in order, and the first filter to +return *False* + +# DEFINING FILTERS + +A python module used for filter must fulfill two conditions: + +> 1\. It must provide a class named *Filter in the package base +> namespace.* +> +> 2\. The *Filter class must include a method named filter with the +> signature def filter(self, conn, block, tx, db_session=None). * + +Filters will strictly be executed in the order which they are defined on +the command line. + +# FURTHER READING + +Refer to the **chainsyncer*** chapter n info chaintool for in-depth +information on the subjects of syncing and filtering.* + +# ENVIRONMENT + +*CHAIN_SPEC* +String specifying the type of chain connected to, in the format +*\:\:\:\.
