This is a monorepo managed by Lerna.

Structure

airnode-abi: Encoding and decoding utilities for Airnode according to the Airnode ABI specifications

airnode-adapter: Used for building requests from an Oracle Integration Specification (OIS), executing them, parsing the responses, but also converting and encoding them for on chain purposes

airnode-admin: A package/CLI tool to interact with the Airnode contracts across chains

airnode-deployer: A package/CLI tool to automate Airnode deployment

airnode-examples: A public list of examples showcasing the features of Airnode

airnode-node: The node part of Airnode that allows for connecting multiple blockchains to the rest of the world

airnode-operation: Development and testing utilities for the core parts of Airnode

airnode-protocol: The contracts that implement the Airnode protocols

airnode-utilities: Provides common utilities that are used by multiple Airnode packages

airnode-validator: A package/CLI tool that can be used to validate and convert airnode specification files

Instructions

To install dependencies, run this at the repository root:

yarn run bootstrap

To build all the packages, run this at the repository root:

yarn run build

Airnode packages are cross platform, available as npm packages or docker containers. You should also be able to clone, build and use the packages on any platform. However we do not guarantee that the development only features (e.g. test or examples) will work out of the box.

We heavily recommend using UNIX based systems for development. If you are using Windows, consider WSL.

We use TS project references to see cross-package errors in real time. However, we use ts-node to run our development scripts and it does not support project references at the moment. This means that some of the errors are only shown in the IDE or at build time, not when run using ts-node.

Changelog

We use changesets to manage the changelog for us. What that means for contributors is that you need to add a changeset by running yarn changeset which contains what packages should be bumped, their associated semver bump types and some markdown which will be inserted into changelogs.

A changeset is required to merge a PR if it changes one of the monorepo packages. If you really do not want to include a changeset, you have to generate an empty one by running yarn changeset:empty. Note that a changeset is not required for renovate PRs.

Tip: Add export EDITOR="code --wait" to .bashrc to make it possible to write changelog description in VS Code (you can adapt the configuration for other editor similarly).
