Ocelloids1 SDK is an open-source software development kit written in Typescript for Polkadot and Substrate based networks. It simplifies the implementation of multi-chain programs and provides domain-specific logic for different pallets.

Features

  • Composable Reactive Streams — Easily filter blockchain data and react to occurrences of interest using composable reactive streams.
  • Data Sources — Retrieve data from extrinsics, blocks, events and storage.
  • Powerful Query Operators — Filter data using integrated operators that support complex queries in the Mongo query language. Includes support for big numbers and advanced features such as dynamic queries.
  • Flexible Type Conversions — Seamlessly convert data into a terse queryable format.
  • Extended Context Types — Extend base generic events and extrinsics with contextual information such as block number, block position and extrinsic position.
  • Nested Calls Extraction — Supports recursive flattening with event correlation of nested utility (i.e. batch calls), multisig and proxy calls within an extrinsic.
  • Multi-Chain Support — Interact with multiple networks.
  • Pallet-Specific Modules — Modules designed to handle use cases related to a particular pallet, such as tracking calls and events from the contracts pallet.

Quickstart

Usage

Refer to the SDK documentation.

You can also explore some example applications in the examples/ folder.

Example: Filtering Transfer Events

Here's a basic usage example that filters balance transfer events from finalized blocks above a certain amount:

import { WsProvider } from '@polkadot/api';

import {
  SubstrateApis,
  finalizedBlocks,
  filterEvents
} from '@sodazone/ocelloids-sdk';

const apis = new SubstrateApis({
  polkadot: {
    provider: new WsProvider('wss://rpc.polkadot.io')
  }
});

apis.rx.polkadot.pipe(
  finalizedBlocks(),
  filterEvents({
    section: 'balances',
    method: 'Transfer',
    'data.amount': { $bn_gte: '50000000000' }
  })
).subscribe(
  x => console.log(x.toHuman())
);

Extended event output with contextual information:

{
  eventId: '16134479-5-1',
  extrinsicId: '16134479-5',
  extrinsicPosition: 1,
  blockNumber: '16,134,479',
  method: 'Transfer',
  section: 'balances',
  index: '0x0502',
  data: {
    from: '14GuP6QAfK9uwo3MQ9LrcmEqttcrtoNfDaSHn2BVaYcJJBg6',
    to: '12But7r26e2UwZkSYC8bU5nQdyfqWXswZEwS1tbH9nD8CXvK',
    amount: '54,719,854,400'
  }
}

The event identifier eventId consists of the block number, the position of the extrinsic within the block, and the position of the event within the extrinsic.

Filter events operator details - click to expand

The filterEvents operator used in the example is composed of the following stack:

source.pipe(
  // Extracts extrinsics with events
  extractTxWithEvents(),
  
  // Flattens and correlates events for nested 
  // batch, multisig, proxy and derivative calls
  flattenCalls(),
  
  // Filters at the extrinsic level
  // mainly for success or failure
  mongoFilter(extrinsicsCriteria),
  
  // Maps the events with
  // block and extrinsic context
  extractEventsWithTx(),
  
  // Filters over the events
  mongoFilter(eventsQuery),
  
  // Share multicast
  share()
)

Example: Account Balance

Here's an example that monitors the balance of an account with an amount threshold condition:

import { WsProvider } from '@polkadot/api';
import { switchMap } from 'rxjs';

import {
  SubstrateApis,
  mongoFilter
} from '@sodazone/ocelloids-sdk';

const apis = new SubstrateApis({
  polkadot: {
    provider: new WsProvider('wss://rpc.polkadot.io')
  }
});

apis.query.polkadot.pipe(
  switchMap(q => q.system.account(
    '15QFBQY6TF6Abr6vA1r6opRh6RbRSMWgBC1PcCMDDzRSEXf5'
  )),
  mongoFilter({
    'data.free': { $bn_lt: '6038009840776279' }
  })
).subscribe(x => console.log('Account Balance:', x.toHuman()));

Example: Dynamic Query

Now, let's explore a dynamic query example that collects and monitors balance transfer events for a set of addresses, starting from ALICE's address:

Dynamic query example - click to expand
import { WsProvider } from '@polkadot/api';
import '@polkadot/api-augment';

import {
  SubstrateApis,
  blocksInRange,
  filterEvents,
  ControlQuery
} from '@sodazone/ocelloids-sdk';

function transfersOf(addresses: string[]) {
  return ControlQuery.from({
    $and: [
      { section: 'balances' },
      { method: 'Transfer' },
      {
        $or: [
          { 'data.from': { $in: addresses } },
          { 'data.to': { $in: addresses } }
        ]
      }
    ]
  });
}

const apis = new SubstrateApis({
  polkadot: {
    provider: new WsProvider('wss://rpc.polkadot.io')
  }
});

const seenAddresses = new Set<string>([ALICE]);
let dynamicQuery = transfersOf([...seenAddresses]);

apis.rx.polkadot.pipe(
  blocksInRange(16134439, 100),
  filterEvents(dynamicQuery)
).subscribe(event => {
  console.log('Event: ', event.toHuman());

  if (apis.promise.polkadot.events.balances.Transfer.is(event) ) {
    const transfer = event.data;
    const from = transfer.from.toPrimitive();
    const to = transfer.to.toPrimitive();

    seenAddresses.add(from);
    seenAddresses.add(to);

    // Updates dynamic query, probably you want
    // to update it only for new seen addresses
    dynamicQuery.change(transfersOf([...seenAddresses]));
  }
});

This example introduces the concept of a dynamic query. As new addresses are encountered, the dynamic query is updated with the newly seen addresses by calling dynamicQuery.change(). This ensures that future events will be filtered based on the updated set of addresses.
