LIMITATIONS

contracts.csv and tokens.csv files don’t include contracts created by message calls (a.k.a. internal transactions). We are working on adding support for those.
In case the contract is a proxy, which forwards all calls to a delegate, interface detection doesn’t work, which means is_erc20 and is_erc721 will always be false for proxy contracts.
The metadata methods (symbol, name, decimals, total_supply) for ERC20 are optional, so around 10% of the contracts are missing this data. Also some contracts (EOS) implement these methods but with wrong return type, so the metadata columns are missing in this case as well.
token_transfers.value, tokens.decimals and tokens.total_supply have type STRING in BigQuery tables, because numeric types there can't handle 32-byte integers. You should use cast(value as FLOAT64) (possible loss of precision) or safe_cast(value as NUMERIC) (possible overflow) to convert to numbers.
The contracts that don't implement decimals() function but have the fallback function that returns a boolean will have 0 or 1 in the decimals column in the CSVs.

Differences between geth and parity traces.csv

to_address field differs for callcode trace (geth seems to return correct value, as parity value of to_address is same as to_address of parent call);
geth output doesn't have reward traces;
geth output doesn't have to_address, from_address, value for `suicide traces;
error field contains human readable error message, which might differ in geth/parity output;
geth output doesn't have transaction_hash;
gas_used is 0 on traces with error in geth, empty in parity;
zero output of subcalls is 0x000... in geth, 0x in parity;

Exporting the Blockchain

Install python 3.6 https://www.python.org/downloads/ (3.5 and 3.7 are not supported by this tool for now)
You can use Infura if you don't need ERC20 transfers (Infura doesn't support eth_getFilterLogs JSON RPC method). For that use -p https://mainnet.infura.io option for the commands below. If you need ERC20 transfers or want to export the data ~40 times faster, you will need to set up a local Ethereum node:
Install geth https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/wiki/Installing-Geth
Start geth. Make sure it downloaded the blocks that you need by executing eth.syncing in the JS console. You can export blocks below currentBlock, there is no need to wait until the full sync as the state is not needed (unless you also need contracts bytecode and token details; for those you need to wait until the full sync).

Clone Ethereum ETL and install the dependencies:

> git clone https://github.com/medvedev1088/ethereum-etl.git
> cd ethereum-etl
> pip install -r requirements.txt

Export all:

> ./export_all.sh -h
Usage: ./export_all.sh -s <start_block> -e <end_block> -b <batch_size> -p <provider_uri> [-o <output_dir>]
> ./export_all.sh -s 0 -e 5499999 -b 100000 -p file://$HOME/Library/Ethereum/geth.ipc -o output

The result will be in the output subdirectory, partitioned in Hive style:

output/blocks/start_block=00000000/end_block=00099999/blocks_00000000_00099999.csv
output/blocks/start_block=00100000/end_block=00199999/blocks_00100000_00199999.csv
...
output/transactions/start_block=00000000/end_block=00099999/transactions_00000000_00099999.csv
...
output/token_transfers/start_block=00000000/end_block=00099999/token_transfers_00000000_00099999.csv
...

Should work with geth and parity, on Linux, Mac, Windows. If you use Parity you should disable warp mode with --no-warp option because warp mode does not place all of the block or receipt data into the database https://wiki.parity.io/Getting-Synced Tested with Python 3.6, geth 1.8.7, Ubuntu 16.04.4

If you see weird behavior, e.g. wrong number of rows in the CSV files or corrupted files, check this issue: blockchain-etl#28

Usage: export_blocks_and_transactions.py [OPTIONS]

  Export blocks and transactions.

Options:
  -s, --start-block INTEGER   Start block
  -e, --end-block INTEGER     End block  [required]
  -b, --batch-size INTEGER    The number of blocks to export at a time.
  -p, --provider-uri TEXT     The URI of the web3 provider e.g.
                              file://$HOME/Library/Ethereum/geth.ipc or
                              https://mainnet.infura.io
  -w, --max-workers INTEGER   The maximum number of workers.
  --blocks-output TEXT        The output file for blocks. If not provided
                              blocks will not be exported. Use "-" for stdout
  --transactions-output TEXT  The output file for transactions. If not
                              provided transactions will not be exported. Use
                              "-" for stdout
  -h, --help                  Show this message and exit.

For the --output parameters the supported types are csv and json. The format type is inferred from the output file name.

export_blocks_and_transactions.py

> python export_blocks_and_transactions.py --start-block 0 --end-block 500000 \
--provider-uri file://$HOME/Library/Ethereum/geth.ipc \
--blocks-output blocks.csv --transactions-output transactions.csv

Omit --blocks-output or --transactions-output options if you want to export only transactions/blocks.

You can tune --batch-size, --max-workers for performance.

export_token_transfers.py

The API used in this command is not supported by Infura, so you will need a local node. If you want to use Infura for exporting ERC20 transfers refer to extract_token_transfers.py

> python export_token_transfers.py --start-block 0 --end-block 500000 \
--provider-uri file://$HOME/Library/Ethereum/geth.ipc --batch-size 100 --output token_transfers.csv

Include --tokens <token1> --tokens <token2> to filter only certain tokens, e.g.

> python export_token_transfers.py --start-block 0 --end-block 500000 \
--provider-uri file://$HOME/Library/Ethereum/geth.ipc --output token_transfers.csv \
--tokens 0x86fa049857e0209aa7d9e616f7eb3b3b78ecfdb0 --tokens 0x06012c8cf97bead5deae237070f9587f8e7a266d

You can tune --batch-size, --max-workers for performance.

export_receipts_and_logs.py

First extract transaction hashes from transactions.csv (Exported with export_blocks_and_transactions.py):

> python extract_csv_column.py --input transactions.csv --column hash --output transaction_hashes.txt

Then export receipts and logs:

> python export_receipts_and_logs.py --transaction-hashes transaction_hashes.txt \
--provider-uri file://$HOME/Library/Ethereum/geth.ipc --receipts-output receipts.csv --logs-output logs.csv

Omit --receipts-output or --logs-output options if you want to export only logs/receipts.

You can tune --batch-size, --max-workers for performance.

Upvote this feature request openethereum/parity-ethereum#9075, it will make receipts and logs export much faster.

extract_token_transfers.py

First export receipt logs with export_receipts_and_logs.py.

Then extract transfers from the logs.csv file:

> python extract_token_transfers.py --logs logs.csv --output token_transfers.csv

You can tune --batch-size, --max-workers for performance.

export_contracts.py

First extract contract addresses from receipts.csv (Exported with export_receipts_and_logs.py):

> python extract_csv_column.py --input receipts.csv --column contract_address --output contract_addresses.txt

Then export contracts:

> python export_contracts.py --contract-addresses contract_addresses.txt \
--provider-uri file://$HOME/Library/Ethereum/geth.ipc --output contracts.csv

You can tune --batch-size, --max-workers for performance.

export_tokens.py

First extract token addresses from contracts.json (Exported with export_contracts.py):

> python filter_items.py -i contracts.json -p "item['is_erc20'] or item['is_erc721']" | \
python extract_field.py -f address -o token_addresses.txt

Then export ERC20 / ERC721 tokens:

> python export_tokens.py --token-addresses token_addresses.txt \
--provider-uri file://$HOME/Library/Ethereum/geth.ipc --output tokens.csv

You can tune --max-workers for performance.

export_traces.py

The API used in this command is not supported by Infura, so you will need a local Parity archive node (parity --tracing on).

> python export_traces.py --start-block 0 --end-block 500000 \
--provider-uri file://$HOME/Library/Ethereum/parity.ipc --batch-size 100 --output traces.csv

You can tune --batch-size, --max-workers for performance.

export_geth_traces.py

The API used in this command is not supported by Infura, so you will need a local Geth archive node (geth --gcmode archive --syncmode full).

> python export_geth_traces.py --start-block 0 --end-block 500000 \
--provider-uri file://$HOME/Library/Ethereum/geth.ipc --batch-size 100 --output geth_traces.json

You can tune --batch-size, --max-workers for performance.

extract_geth_traces.py

> python extract_geth_traces.py --input geth_traces.json --output traces.csv

You can tune --batch-size, --max-workers for performance.
