indexers

Package indexers implements optional block chain indexes.

These indexes are typically used to enhance the amount of information available via an RPC interface.

Supported Indexers

• Transaction-by-hash (txbyhashidx) Index
  • Creates a mapping from the hash of each transaction to the block that contains it along with its offset and length within the serialized block
• Address-ever-seen (existsaddridx) Index
  • Stores a key with an empty value for every address that has ever existed and was seen by the client

Removed Legacy Indexers

• Committed Filter (cfindexparentbucket) Index
  • Stores all committed filters and committed filter headers for all blocks in the main chain
• Transaction-by-address (txbyaddridx) Index
  • Creates a mapping from every address to all transactions which either credit or debit the address
  • Requires the transaction-by-hash index
