Open source explorer for the Aleo network

Aleo Explorer

The "official" instance

Description

A 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)
• 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

(currently lacking pg_hint_plan)

A better frontend?

Yeah, I'm not really a frontend developer. I know it's ugly, but I'm focusing on features here.

You are welcome to contribute a better frontend, as long as you keep the current one as a function baseline reference. You can also create an entirely new frontend outside this repository; all you really need is the blockchain data in the database.
