WARNING: Launchpad is ALPHA quality software. We are rapidly iterating to create the best UX for Indexers. Expect API-breaking changes for the next few weeks. Contributors are very welcome.

Introduction

Launchpad is a toolkit for running a Graph Protocol Indexer on Kubernetes. It aims to provide the fastest path to production multi-chain indexing, with sane security and performance defaults. It should work well whether you have a single host or twenty.

There are two components to be aware of:

  1. Starter (this repo): A starting point for every new Launchpad deployment. It uses a submodule to import all templated definitions from Core.
  2. Core (graphops/launchpad-core): Templated tasks, release definitions, scripts and other components

Features

  • Actively maintained by GraphOps and contributors
  • Deploy Kubernetes (K0s) onto any existing set of SSH-capable hosts you have
  • Predefined release definitions for monitoring, logging and other cluster functions, as well as for the complete Graph Indexer Stack
  • An opinionated starter (this repo) to define and manage your stack in a declarative, version controlled manner
  • A workflow to seamlessly inherit new templated release updates, while still supporting a enormous degree of deployment flexibility

Getting Started

Please see the Quick Start guide in the Documentation.

Updates

Updating launchpad-core

As new versions of key components in the stack are released, we will update launchpad-core's templated definitions. You can easily inherit these updates by pulling down the latest submodule.

Launchpad comes with a built in task to do this:

task launchpad:update-core

Pulling in starter changes

From time to time, you may want to update your infra repo with the latest changes from our starter.

Launchpad comes with a built in task to do this:

task launchpad:pull-upstream-starter
