Router
Software by Tessellated // tessellated.io
Introduction
Router
is an abstraction around chains that allows users to look up and use chains across Tessellated's software.
It is particularly useful when you need to abstract configurations around RPC addresses, for instance, to coordinate signing processes, delegation queries or manually configure RPCs.
Installation
Simply run the following to update your go.mod
file:
go get github.com/tessellated-io/router
Usage
Router
provides two useful abstractions:
- Chain: An abstraction around a blockchain, its metadata and RPC endpoints
- Router: A router is initialized with multiple chains and can query chain metadata and RPC endpoints by a chain name
Several errors are also exported for convenience from errors.go
.
We provide two default routing strategies out of the box:
-
static
: Allows configuration of a router with preconfigured chains -
file
: Allows configuration of a router with routes in a file. A file router assumes a config such as:- chain-id: my-chain grpc: tcp://1.2.3.4:9090
The most useful functionality for Router
is to add a replace
for a private go Module in your go.mod
, in order to route to your own infrastructure.
