# Envio CLI tool
# Envio

A fast, reliable, customizable indexing blockchain solution.
Envio is a modern, multi-chain data indexing framework for efficiently querying real-time and historical data from any EVM blockchain and Fuel.

Envio is a reliable real-time indexing solution designed to simplify the ingestion of events from EVM-compatible chains and transform this data into custom GraphQL APIs. These APIs play a pivotal role in enabling seamless user experiences in blockchain application front-ends. With Envio, the emphasis is on refining the developer's experience when using an indexer, ensuring the service is swift, secure, and trustworthy.

## Getting Started

## [Quickstart](https://docs.envio.dev/docs/quickstart)

For a slightly larger tutorial please see the [Greeter contract tutorial](https://docs.envio.dev/docs/greeter-tutorial).

## [Installation](https://docs.envio.dev/docs/installation)

### Prerequisites

- [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/download/current)
- [pnpm](https://pnpm.io/installation) on [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/get-npm)
- [Docker Desktop](https://www.docker.com/products/docker-desktop/)

To install the `envio` tool globally, run:

```bash
npm i -g envio
```

To view the available CLI commands:

```bash
envio --help
```

## Usage

**Important Commands Overview:**

- `envio`
- `envio init` - Auto-generates configuration, GraphQL schema, and event handlers based on the Greeter template.
- `envio codegen` - Generates code after setting configuration and schema files.
- `envio start` - Start the indexer.
- `envio dev` - Starts all the processes required for local development of the indexer.
- `envio stop` - Delete the database and stop all processes

For a detailed breakdown of commands, refer to the [documentation](https://docs.envio.dev/docs/cli-commands).

## Event Handlers

After establishing the configuration and schema files, execute:

```bash
npx envio codegen
```

Custom code to make it easy to retrieve and process events from our contract is generated. More specifically every event necessitates the registration of two core functions from our generated code:

- Loader function
- Handler function

### Loader Function

Loader functions are responsible for loading specific entities (defined in `schema.graphql`) to be modified by the event. They are called in the following format:

```typescript
<ContractName>Contract_ < EventName > _loader;
```

**NOTE**: the syntax is slightly different for javascript and rescript. See [loader docs](https://docs.envio.dev/docs/event-handlers#loader-function).

### Handler Function

Handler functions modify the entities loaded by the loader function. They incorporate the essential logic for updating entities with the raw data produced by the event. They're called as:

```typescript
<ContractName>Contract_ < EventName > _handler;
```

**NOTE**: the syntax is slightly different for javascript and rescript. See [handler docs](https://docs.envio.dev/docs/event-handlers#handler-function).

For a comprehensive guide on Event Handlers, please refer to the [provided documentation](https://docs.envio.dev/docs/event-handlers).

## Logging

Logging is integral for tracking the progress and debugging issues in the indexer. Envio utilizes the [pino](https://github.com/pinojs/pino/) logging library, which can be integrated with tools like [kibana](https://www.elastic.co/what-is/kibana) to extract metrics and insights.

For user-level logging, context-based functions are provided:

- `<context>.log.debug`
- `<context>.log.info`
- `<context>.log.warn`
- `<context>.log.error`
- `<context>.log.errorWithExn`

Further details about developer logging, including log levels, can be found in the [documentation](https://docs.envio.dev/docs/logging).
