airnode-feed

> A service for storing and accessing signed data.

Airnode feed is a Node.js service, dockerized and deployable on any cloud provider or hostable on premise. It is
continuously running two core loops:

1. Fetch beacon data - Each triggers.signedApiUpdates entry defines a group of templates. Airnode feed makes a
template request to the API specified in the OIS to get the template data. Airnode feed's wallet is used to sign the
responses and these are then saved to in-memory storage.
2. Push signed beacon data to signed API - For each triggers.signedApiUpdates, periodically checks the in-memory
storage and pushes the signed data to the configured API.

Configuration

See configuration for details.

Local development

The Airnode feed needs a configuration in order to run. The config folder contains example configuration which uses:

- Nodary as the data provider, from which the data is fetched.
- Signed API running on http://localhost:8090 where the data is pushed.

To start the the Airnode feed in dev mode run the following:

1. cp config/airnode-feed.example.json config/airnode-feed.json - To copy the Airnode feed configuration from the
example. Note, the airnode-feed.json file is ignored by git. If you are using Docker Desktop, you need to change
the URL from localhost to host.docker.internal. For example:

``jsonc
"url": "http://host.docker.internal:8090"
`

2. cp config/secrets.example.env config/secrets.env - To copy the secrets.env needed for the configuration. This file
is also ignored by git.
3. Set the NODARY_API_KEY inside the secrets file. Ask someone from development team for the key.
4. cp .env.example .env - To copy the example environment variables. Optionally change the defaults.
5. pnpm run dev - To run the Airnode feed. This step assumes already running signed API as specified in the
airnode-feed.json configuration.

To run the tests:

`sh
pnpm run test


or to run test only from a specific files (path substring search)

pnpm run test schema

or to enable logger (by default the logger is disabled by jest.setup.js).

LOGGER_ENABLED=true pnpm run test
`

You can use shorthands from package.json. To understand how the docker image is built, read the
Dockerfile.

`sh
pnpm run docker:build
pnpm run docker:run
`

Deployment

To deploy Airnode feed on AWS you can use the Cloud Formation template created by the API integrations team. The
template can be found in the private api-integrations repository
here.

To deploy on premise you can use the Docker image by reading the instructions below.

$3

To run the Airnode feed docker image you need to:

1. Mount config folder to /app/config. The folder should contain the airnode-feed.json and secrets.env files.
2. Pass the -it --init flags to the docker run command. This is needed to ensure the docker is stopped gracefully. See
this for details.
3. Specify the --env-file with the path to the .env file containing the ENV configuration.
4. Optionally, pass the --rm flag to remove the container after it is stopped.
5. If running on Linux, you need to use the --network host to access the host network. This has no effect for Docker
Desktop.
6. Lastly, if you are using Docker Desktop and you want to access the host machine, you need to change the host URL from
localhost to host.docker.internal in the configuration files.

For example:

`sh


Assuming the current folder contains the "config" folder and ".env" file.


docker run -it --init --volume $(pwd)/config:/app/config --env-file .env --rm api3/airnode-feed:latest
