Block Explorer

Below is an example of a rudimentary block explorer backend implementation that demonstrates how to leverage basic Fuel indexer abstractions in order to build a cool dApp backend.

//! A rudimentary block explorer implementation demonstrating how blocks, transactions,
//! contracts, and accounts can be persisted into the database.
//!
//! Build this example's WASM module using the following command. Note that a
//! wasm32-unknown-unknown target will be required.
//!
//! ```bash
//! cargo build -p explorer-indexer --release --target wasm32-unknown-unknown
//! ```
//!
//! With your database backend set up, now start your fuel-indexer binary using the
//! assets from this example:
//!
//! ```bash
//! cargo run --bin fuel-indexer -- run --manifest examples/block-explorer/explorer-indexer/explorer_indexer.manifest.yaml
//! ```

// We'll pass our manifest to our #[indexer] attribute. This manifest contains
// all of the relevant configuration parameters in regard to how our index will
// work. In the fuel-indexer repository, we use relative paths (starting from the
// fuel-indexer root) but if you're building an index outside of the fuel-indexer
// project you'll want to use full/absolute paths.
