Ripple Data API v2

The Ripple Data API v2 provides access to information about changes in the Ripple Consensus Ledger, including transaction history and processed analytical data. This information is stored in a dedicated database, which frees rippled servers to keep fewer historical ledger versions. The Data API v2 also acts as data source for applications such as Ripple Charts and ripple.com.

Ripple provides a live instance of the Data API with as complete a transaction record as possible at the following address:

https://data.ripple.com

More Information

The Ripple Data API v2 replaces the Historical Database v1 and the Charts API.

API Method Reference

Families and Metrics

The family and metrics query parameters provide a way to filter results to a specific subset of all metrics available for transactions in any given interval. Each metric is tied to a specific family, as follows:

Family Included Metrics Meaning
type All Ripple transaction types, including Payment, AccountSet, OfferCreate, and others. Number of transactions of the given type that occurred during the interval.
result All transaction result codes (string codes, not the numeric codes), including tesSUCCESS, tecPATH_DRY, and many others. Number of transactions that resulted in the given code during the interval.
metric Data-API defined Special Transaction Metrics. (Varies)
Special Transaction Metrics

The Data API derives the following values for every interval. These metrics are part of the metric family.

Field Value Description
accounts_created Number The number of new accounts funded during this interval.
exchanges_count Number The number of currency exchanges that occurred during this interval.
ledger_count Number The number of ledgers closed during this interval.
ledger_interval Number The average number of seconds between ledgers closing during this interval.
payments_count Number The number of payments from one account to another during this interval.
tx_per_ledger Number The average number of transactions per ledger in this interval.

If any of the metrics have a value of 0, they are omitted from the results.

Response Format

A successful response uses the HTTP code 200 OK and has a JSON body with the following:

Field Value Description
result String The value success indicates that this is a successful response.
count Integer Number of reports returned.
marker String (May be omitted) Pagination marker.
stats Array of stats objects The requested stats. Omits metrics with a value of 0, and intervals that have no nonzero metrics.

API Conventions

Basic Types

As a REST API, the Data API v2 uses JSON's native datatypes to represent API fields, with some special cases.

Numbers and Precision

Currency amounts in Ripple require more precision than most native number types, so the Data API v2 uses the String type to represent some values.

Within the String value, the numbers are serialized in the same way as native JSON numbers:

  • Base-10.
  • Non-zero-prefaced.
  • May contain . as a decimal point. For example, ½ is represented as 0.5. (American style, not European)
  • May contain E or e to indicate being raised to a power of 10. For example, 1.2E5 is equivalent to 120000.
  • No comma (,) characters are used.

The precision for amounts of non-XRP currency in Ripple is as follows:

  • Minimum nonzero absolute value: 1000000000000000e-96
  • Maximum value: 9999999999999999e80
  • Minimum value: -9999999999999999e80
  • 15 decimal digits of precision

XRP has a different internal representation, and its precision is different:

  • Minimum value: 0
  • Maximum value: 100000000000 (1e11)
  • Precise to the nearest 0.000001 (1e-6)

In other words, XRP has the same precision as a 64-bit unsigned integer where each unit is equivalent to 0.000001 XRP.

Addresses

Ripple Accounts are identified by a base-58 Ripple Address, which is derived from the account's master public key. An address is represented as a String in JSON, with the following characteristics:

  • Between 25 and 35 characters in length
  • Starts with the character r
  • Case-sensitive
  • Base-58 encoded using only the following characters: rpshnaf39wBUDNEGHJKLM4PQRST7VWXYZ2bcdeCg65jkm8oFqi1tuvAxyz That's alphanumeric characters, excluding zero (0), capital O (O), capital I (I), and lowercase L (l).
  • Contains error-checking that makes it unlikely that a randomly-generated string is a valid address.

Special Addresses

Some addresses have special meaning, or historical uses, in the Ripple Consensus Ledger. In many cases, these are "black hole" addresses, meaning the address is not derived from a known secret key. Since it is almost impossible to guess a secret key from only an address, any XRP possessed by those addresses is lost forever.

Address Name Meaning Black Hole?
rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrhoLvTp ACCOUNT_ZERO An address that is the base-58 encoding of the value 0. In peer-to-peer communications, rippled uses this address as the issuer for XRP. Yes
rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrBZbvji ACCOUNT_ONE An address that is the base-58 encoding of the value 1. In the ledger, RippleState entries use this address as a placeholder for the issuer of a trust line balance. Yes
rHb9CJAWyB4rj91VRWn96DkukG4bwdtyTh The genesis account When rippled starts a new genesis ledger from scratch (for example, in stand-alone mode), this account holds all the XRP. This address is generated from the seed value "masterpassphrase" which is hard-coded. No
rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrNAMEtxvNvQ Ripple Name reservation black-hole In the past, Ripple asked users to send XRP to this account to reserve Ripple Names. Yes
rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrn5RM1rHd NaN Address Previous versions of ripple-lib generated this address when base-58 encoding the value NaN. Yes

Public Keys

The Ripple Consensus Ledger (RCL) uses public keys to verify cryptographic signatures in several places:

  • To authorize transactions, a public key is attached to the transaction. The public key must be mathematically associated with the sending Ripple address or the sender's regular key address.
  • To secure peer-to-peer communications between rippled servers. This uses a "node public key" that the server generates randomly when it starts with an empty database.
  • To sign validation votes as part of the consensus process. This uses a "validator public key" that the server operator defines in the config file.

Validator public keys and node public keys use the exact same format.

Public keys can be represented in hexadecimal or in base-58. In hexadecimal, all three types of public keys are 33 bytes (66 characters) long.

In base-58 format, validator public keys and node public keys always start with the character n, commonly followed by the character 9. A validator public key in base-58 format can be up to 53 characters long. Example node public key: n9Mxf6qD4J55XeLSCEpqaePW4GjoCR5U1ZeGZGJUCNe3bQa4yQbG.

Ripple addresses are mathematically associated with a public key. This public key is rarely encoded in base-58, but when it is, it starts with the character a.

Hashes

Many objects in Ripple, particularly transactions and ledgers, are uniquely identified by a 256-bit hash value. This value is typically calculated as a "SHA-512Half", which calculates a SHA-512 hash from some contents, then takes the first 64 characters of the hexadecimal representation. Since the hash of an object is derived from the contents in a way that is extremely unlikely to produce collisions, two objects with the same hash can be considered the same.

A Ripple hash value has the following characteristics:

  • Exactly 64 characters in length
  • Hexadecimal character set: 0-9 and A-F.
  • Typically written in upper case.

Note: SHA-512Half has similar security to the officially-defined SHA-512/256 hash function. However, Ripple's usage predates SHA-512/256 and is also easier to implement on top of an existing SHA-512 function. (As of this writing, SHA-512 support in cryptographic libraries is much more common than for SHA-512/256.)

Timestamps

All dates and times are written in ISO 8601 Timestamp Format, using UTC. This format is summarized as:

YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssZ

  • Four-digit year
  • Two-digit month
  • Two-digit day
  • The letter T separating the date part and the time part
  • Two-digit hour using a 24-hour clock
  • Two digit minute
  • The letter Z indicating zero offset from UTC.

(As of v2.0.4, the offset +00:00 is no longer used.)

Ledger Index

A ledger index is a 32-bit unsigned integer used to identify a ledger. The ledger index is also known as the ledger's sequence number. The very first ledger was ledger index 1, and each new ledger has a ledger index 1 higher than that of the ledger immediately before it.

The ledger index indicates the order of the ledgers; the Hash value identifies the exact contents of the ledger. Two ledgers with the same hash are always the same. For validated ledgers, hash values and sequence numbers are equally valid and correlate 1:1. However, this is not true for in-progress ledgers:

  • Two different rippled servers may have different contents for a current ledger with the same ledger index, due to latency in propagating transactions throughout the network.
  • There may be multiple closed ledger versions competing to be validated by consensus. These ledger versions have the same sequence number but different contents (and different hashes). Only one of these closed ledgers can become validated.
  • A current ledger's contents change over time, which would cause its hash to change, even though its ledger index number stays the same. The hash of a ledger is not calculated until the ledger is closed.

Account Sequence

A Sequence number is a 32-bit unsigned integer used to identify a transaction or Offer relative to a specific account.

Every account object in the Ripple Consensus Ledger has a Sequence number, which starts at 1. For a transaction to be relayed to the network and possibly included in a validated ledger, it must have a Sequence field that matches the sending account's current Sequence number. An account's Sequence field is incremented whenever a transaction from that account is included in a validated ledger (regardless of whether the transaction succeeded or failed). This preserves the order of transactions submitted by an account, and differentiates transactions that would otherwise be the same.

Every Offer node in the Ripple Consensus Ledger is marked with the sending Account Address and the Sequence value of the OfferCreate transaction that created it. These two fields, together, uniquely identify the Offer.

Currency Code

There are two kinds of currency code in the Ripple Consensus Ledger:

  • Three-character currency code. We recommend using all-uppercase ISO 4217 Currency Codes. However, any combination of the following characters is permitted: all uppercase and lowercase letters, digits, as well as the symbols ?, !, @, #, $, %, ^, &, *, <, >, (, ), {, }, [, ], and |. The currency code XRP (all-uppercase) is reserved for XRP and cannot be used by issued currencies.
  • 160-bit hexadecimal values, such as 0158415500000000C1F76FF6ECB0BAC600000000, according to Ripple's internal Currency Format. This representation is uncommon.

Pagination

Many queries may return more data than is reasonable to return in a single HTTP response. The Data API uses a "limit and marker" system to control how much is returned in a single response ("page") and to query for additional content.

The limit query parameter to many requests restricts the response to a specific number of results in the response. The types of results and default values vary based on the method. For most methods, the limit is 200 by default, and can be set as high as 1000. If you specify a limit larger than the maximum, the API uses the maximum value instead.

When a query has additional objects that are not contained in the current response, the JSON response contains a top-level field marker which indicates that you can retrieve additional results. To do so, make more requests with the previous value of the marker field as the marker query parameter. For each additional request, use the same parameters as the first request (except marker). When the response omits the marker parameter, that indicates that you have reached the end of the queryable data.

When a marker is or would be present, the response contains a Link header with rel="next". This is a full URL to the next page of results. You can use this to paginate over results when the response is in csv format instead of json. (New in v2.0.4)

Transaction Objects

Transactions have two formats - a compact "binary" format where the defining fields of the transaction are encoded as strings of hex, and an expanded format where the defining fields of the transaction are nested as complete JSON objects.

Full JSON Format

Field Value Description
hash String - Hash An identifying hash value unique to this transaction, as a hex string.
date String - Timestamp The time when this transaction was included in a validated ledger.
ledger_index Number - Ledger Index The sequence number of the ledger that included this ledger.
tx Object The fields of this transaction object, as defined by the Transaction Format
meta Object Metadata about the results of this transaction.

Binary Format

Field Value Description
hash String - Hash An identifying hash value unique to this transaction, as a hex string.
date String - Timestamp The time when this transaction was included in a validated ledger.
ledger_index Number - Ledger Index The sequence number of the ledger that included this ledger.
tx String The binary data that represents this transaction, as a hexadecimal string.
meta String The binary data that represents this transaction's metadata, as a hex string.

Ledger Objects

A "ledger" is one version of the shared global ledger. Each ledger object has the following fields:

Field Value Description
ledger_hash String - Hash An identifying hash unique to this ledger, as a hex string.
ledger_index Number - Ledger Index The sequence number of the ledger. Each new ledger has a ledger index 1 higher than the ledger that came before it.
parent_hash String - Hash The identifying hash of the previous ledger.
total_coins String - Number The total number of "drops" of XRP still in existence at the time of the ledger. (Each XRP is 1,000,000 drops.)
close_time_res Number The ledger close time is rounded to this many seconds.
accounts_hash String - Hash Hash of the account information contained in this ledger, as hex.
transactions_hash String - Hash Hash of the transaction information contained in this ledger, as hex.
close_time Number When this ledger was closed, in UNIX time.
close_time_human String - Timestamp When this ledger was closed.

Note: Ledger close times are approximate, typically rounded to about 10 seconds. Two ledgers could have the same close_time values, when their actual close times were several seconds apart. The sequence number (ledger_index) of the ledger makes it unambiguous which ledger closed first.

Genesis Ledger

Due to a mishap early in Ripple's history, ledgers 1 through 32569 were lost. Thus, ledger #32570 is the earliest ledger available anywhere. For purposes of the Data API v2, ledger #32570 is considered the genesis ledger.

Account Creation Objects

An account creation object represents the action of creating an account in the Ripple Consensus Ledger. There are two variations, depending on whether the account was already present in ledger 32570, the earliest ledger available. Accounts that were already present in ledger 32570 are termed genesis accounts.

Field Value Description
address String - Address The identifying address of this account, in base-58.
inception String - Timestamp The UTC timestamp when the address was funded. For genesis accounts, this is the timestamp of ledger 32570.
ledger_index Number - Ledger Index The sequence number of the ledger when the account was created, or 32570 for genesis accounts.
parent String - Address (Omitted for genesis accounts) The address that provided the XRP to fund this address.
tx_hash String - Hash (Omitted for genesis accounts) The identifying hash of the transaction that funded this account.
initial_balance String - Number (Omitted for genesis accounts) The amount of XRP that funded this account.
genesis_balance String - Number (Genesis accounts only) The amount of XRP this account held as of ledger #32570.
genesis_index Number - Sequence Number (Genesis accounts only) The transaction sequence number of the account as of ledger #32570.

Exchange Objects

An exchange object represents an actual exchange of currency, which can occur in the Ripple Consensus Ledger as the result of executing either an OfferCreate transaction or a Payment transaction. In order for currency to actually change hands, there must be a previously-unfilled Offer previously placed in the ledger with an OfferCreate transaction.

A single transaction can cause several exchanges to occur. In this case, the sender of the transaction is the taker for all the exchanges, but each exchange has a different provider, currency pair, or both.

Field Value Description
base_amount Number The amount of the base currency that was traded.
counter_amount Number The amount of the counter currency that was traded.
rate Number The amount of the counter currency acquired per 1 unit of the base currency.
autobridged_currency String - Currency Code (May be omitted) If the offer was autobridged (XRP order books were used to bridge two non-XRP currencies), this is the other currency from the offer that executed this exchange.
autobridged_issuer String - Address (May be omitted) If the offer was autobridged (XRP order books were used to bridge two non-XRP currencies), this is the other currency from the offer that executed this exchange.
base_currency String - Currency Code The base currency.
base_issuer String - Address (Omitted for XRP) The account that issued the base currency.
buyer String - Address The account that acquired the base currency.
client String (May be omitted) If the transaction contains a memo indicating what client application sent it, this is the contents of the memo.
counter_currency String - Currency Code The counter currency.
counter_issuer String - Address (Omitted for XRP) The account that issued the counter currency.
executed_time String - Timestamp The time the exchange occurred.
ledger_index Number - Ledger Index The sequence number of the ledger that included this transaction.
offer_sequence Number - Sequence Number The sequence number of the provider's existing offer in the ledger.
provider String - Address The account that had an existing Offer in the ledger.
seller String - Address The account that acquired the counter currency.
taker String - Address The account that sent the transaction which executed this exchange.
tx_hash String - Hash The identifying hash of the transaction that executed this exchange. (Note: This exchange may be one of several executed in a single transaction.)
tx_type String The type of transaction that executed this exchange, either Payment or OfferCreate.

Reports Objects

Reports objects show the activity of a given account over a specific interval of time, typically a day. Reports have the following fields:

Field Value Description
account String - Address The address of the account to which this report pertains.
date String - Timestamp The start of the interval to which this report pertains.
high_value_received String - Number Largest amount received in a single transaction, normalized to XRP (as closely as possible). This includes payments and exchanges.
high_value_sent String - Number The largest amount sent in a single transaction, normalized to XRP (as closely as possible).
payments Array of Payment Summary Objects (May be omitted) Array with information on each payment sent or received by the account during this interval.
payments_received Number The number of payments sent to this account. (This only includes payments for which this account was the destination, not payments that only rippled through the account or consumed the account's offers.)
payments_sent Number The number of payments sent by this account.
receiving_counterparties Array or Number If account lists requested, an array of addresses that received payments from this account. Otherwise, the number of different accounts that received payments from this account.
sending_counterparties Array or Number If account lists requested, an array of addresses that sent payments to this account. Otherwise, the number of different accounts that sent payments to this account.
total_value String - Number Sum of total value received and sent in payments, normalized to XRP (as closely as possible).
total_value_received String - Number Sum value of all payments to this account, normalized to XRP (as closely as possible).
total_value_sent String - Number Sum value of all payments from this account, normalized to XRP (as closely as possible).

Payment Summary Objects

A Payment Summary Object contains a reduced amount of information about a single payment from the perspective of either the sender or receiver of that payment.

Field Value Description
tx_hash String - Hash The identifying hash of the transaction that caused the payment.
delivered_amount String - Number The amount of the destination currency actually received by the destination account.
currency String - Currency Code The currency delivered to the recipient of the transaction.
issuer String - Address The gateway issuing the currency, or an empty string for XRP.
type String Either sent or received, indicating whether the perspective account is sender or receiver of this transaction.

Payment Objects

In the Data API, a Payment Object represents an event where one account sent value to another account. This mostly lines up with Ripple transactions of the Payment transaction type, except that the Data API does not consider a transaction to be a payment if the sending Account and the Destination account are the same, or if the transaction failed.

Payment objects have the following fields:

Field Value Description
amount String - Number The amount of the destination currency that the transaction was instructed to send. In the case of Partial Payments, this is a "maximum" amount.
delivered_amount String - Number The amount of the destination currency actually received by the destination account.
destination_balance_changes Array Array of balance change objects, indicating all changes made to the destination account's balances.
source_balance_changes Array Array of balance change objects, indicating all changes to the source account's balances (except the XRP transaction cost).
transaction_cost String - Number The amount of XRP spent by the source account on the transaction cost. (Prior to v2.0.4, this parameter was called fee.)
destination_tag Integer (May be omitted) A destination tag specified in this payment.
source_tag Integer (May be omitted) A source tag specified in this payment.
currency String - Currency Code The currency that the destination account received.
destination String - Address The account that received the payment.
executed_time String - Timestamp The time the ledger that included this payment closed.
ledger_index Number - Ledger Index The sequence number of the ledger that included this payment.
source String - Address The account that sent the payment.
source_currency String - Currency Code The currency that the source account spent.
tx_hash String - Hash The identifying hash of the transaction that caused the payment.

Balance Objects and Balance Change Objects

Balance objects represent an Ripple account's balance in a specific currency with a specific counterparty at a single point in time. Balance change objects represent a change to such balances that occurs in transaction execution.

A single Ripple transaction may cause changes to balances with several counterparties, as well as changes to XRP.

Balance objects and Balance Change objects have the same format, with the following fields:

Field Value Description
counterparty String - Address The counterparty, or issuer, of the currency. In the case of XRP, this is an empty string.
currency String - Currency Code The currency for which this balance changed.
value String - Number The amount of the currency that the associated account gained or lost. In balance change objects, this value can be positive (for amounts gained) or negative (for amounts lost). In balance objects, this value can be positive (for amounts the counterparty owes the account) or negative (for amounts owed to the counterparty).

Balance Change Descriptors

Balance Change Descriptors are objects that describe and analyze a single balance change that occurs in transaction execution. They represent the same events as balance change objects, but in greater detail.

Balance Change Descriptors have the following fields:

Field Value Description
amount_change String - Number The difference in the amount of currency held before and after this change. (Prior to v2.0.6, this field was called change.)
final_balance String - Number The balance after the change occurred.
node_index Number (or null) This balance change is represented by the entry at this index of the ModifiedNodes array within the metadata section of the transaction that executed this balance change. Note: When the transaction cost is combined with other changes to XRP balance, the transaction cost has a node_index of null instead.
tx_index Number The transaction that executed this balance change is at this index in the array of transactions for the ledger that included it.
change_type String One of several describing what caused this balance change to occur.
currency String - Currency Code The change affected this currency.
executed_time String - Timestamp The time the change occurred. (This is based on the close time of the ledger that included the transaction that executed the change.
counterparty String - Address (Omitted for XRP) The currency is held in a trust line to or from this account. (Prior to v2.0.6, this field was called issuer.)
ledger_index Number - Ledger Index The sequence number of the ledger that included the transaction that executed this balance change.
tx_hash String - Hash The identifying hash of the transaction that executed this balance change.

Change Types

The following values are valid for the change_type field of a Balance Change Descriptor:

Value Meaning
transaction_cost This balance change reflects XRP that was destroyed to relay a transaction. (Prior to v2.0.4, this was network fee instead.)
payment_destination This balance change reflects currency that was received from a payment.
payment_source This balance change reflects currency that was spent in a payment.
exchange This balance change reflects currency that was traded for other currency, or the same currency from a different issuer. This can occur in the middle of payment execution as well as from offers.

Volume Objects

Volume objects represent the total volumes of money moved, in either payments or exchanges, during a given period.

Field Value Description
components Array of Objects The data that was used to assemble this total. For payment volume, each object represents payments in a particular currency and issuer. For exchange volume, each object represents a market between two currencies.
count Number The total number of exchanges in this period.
endTime String - Timestamp The end time of this interval.
exchange Object Indicates the display currency used, as with fields currency and (except for XRP) issuer. All amounts are normalized by first converting to XRP, and then to the display currency specified in the request.
exchangeRate Number The exchange rate to the displayed currency from XRP.
startTime String - Timestamp The start of this period.
total Number Total volume of all recorded exchanges in the period.

Server Objects

A "Server Object" describes one rippled server in the Ripple peer-to-peer network. Server objects are returned by the Get Topology, Get Toplogy Nodes, and Get Topology Node methods. The Data API collects reported network topology approximately every 30 seconds using the peer crawler.

Server objects have the following fields, with some only appearing if the request specified a verbose response:

Field Value Description
node_public_key String - Base-58 Public Key The public key used by this server to sign its peer-to-peer communications, not including validations.
version String The rippled version of this server, when it was last asked.
uptime Integer Number of seconds this server has been connected to the network.

Link Objects

A Link Object represents a peer-to-peer network connection between two rippled servers. It has the following fields:

Field Value Description
source String - Base-58 Public Key The node public key of the rippled making the outgoing connection.
target String - Base-58 Public Key The node public key of the rippled receiving the incoming connection.

Validation Objects

A Validation Object represents one vote from a validator to mark a ledger version as validated. (A ledger is only validated by the consensus process if a quorum of trusted validators votes for the same exact ledger version.)

Note: The Data API retain only about 6 months of validation vote data.

A Validation Object has the following fields:

Field Value Description
count Integer (May be omitted) The number of rippled servers that reported seeing this validation. Not available for old data.
ledger_hash String - Hash The hash of the ledger version this validation vote applies to.

validation_public_key String - Base-58 Public Key The public key of the validator used to sign this validation, in base-58.
signature String The validator's signature of the validation details, in hexadecimal.
first_datetime String - Timestamp Date and time of the first report of this validation.
last_datetime String - Timestamp Date and time of the last report of this validation.

Running the Historical Database

You can also serve the Data API v2 from your own instance of the Historical Database software, and populate it with transactions from your own rippled instance. This is useful if you do not want to depend on Ripple to run the historical database indefinitely, or you want access to historical transactions from within your own intranet.

Installation

Dependencies

The Historical Database requires the following software installed first:

Version 2 of the Historical Database requires HBase instead of PostgreSQL. Postgres support is deprecated.

Installation Process

To install the Data API v2:

  1. Install HBase. For production use, configure it in distributed mode.

  2. Clone the Historical Database Git Repository:

     git clone https://github.com/ripple/rippled-historical-database.git
    

    (You can also download and extract a zipped release instead.)

  3. Use npm to install additional modules:

     cd rippled-historical-database
     npm install
    

    The install script creates the required config files: config/api.config.json and config/import.config.json

  4. Change the config files as needed. Remove the postgres section from api.config.json.

Reports, stats, and aggregated exchange data needs more processing before the API can make it available. This processing uses Apache Storm as well as some custom scripts. See Storm Setup for more information.

At this point, the Data API is installed. See Services for the different components that you can run.

Tests

Dependencies:

$ docker-compose build
$ docker-compose up -d hbase
$ docker-compose run webapp npm test

Services

The rippled Historical Database consists of several processes that can be run separately.

  • Live Ledger Importer - Monitors rippled for newly-validated ledgers. Command: node import/live
  • Backfiller - Populates the database with older ledgers from a rippled instance. Command: node import/postgres/backfill
  • API Server - Provides REST API access to the data. Command: npm start (restarts the server automatically when source files change), or node api/server.js (start once)

Importing Data

In order to retrieve data from the rippled Historical Database, you must first populate it with data. Broadly speaking, there are two ways this can happen:

  • Connect to a rippled server that has the historical ledgers, and retrieve them. (Later, you can reconfigure the rippled server not to keep history older than what you have in your Historical Database.)
    • You can choose to retrieve only new ledgers as they are validated, or you can retrieve old ledgers, too.
  • Or, you can load a dump from a database that already has the historical ledger data. (At this time, there are no publicly-available database dumps of historical data.) Use the standard process for your database.

In all cases, keep in mind that the integrity of the data is only as good as the original source. If you retrieve data from a public server, you are assuming that the operator of that server is trustworthy. If you load from a database dump, you are assuming that the provider of the dump has not corrupted or tampered with the data.

Live Ledger Importer

The Live Ledger Importer is a service that connects to a rippled server using the WebSocket API, and listens for ledger close events. Each time a new ledger is closed, the Importer requests the latest validated ledger. Although this process has some fault tolerance built in to prevent ledgers from being skipped, the Importer may still miss ledgers.

The Live Ledger Importer includes a secondary process that runs periodically to validate the data already imported and check for gaps in the ledger history.

The Live Ledger Importer can import to one or more different data stores concurrently. If you have configured the historical database to use another storage scheme, you can use the --type parameter to specify the database type or types to use.

Example usage:

// start loading records into HBase:
$ node import/live

Backfiller

The Backfiller retrieves old ledgers from a rippled instance by moving backwards in time. You can optionally provide start and stop indexes to retrieve a specific range of ledgers, by their sequence number.

The --startIndex parameter defines the most-recent ledger to retrieve. The Backfiller retrieves this ledger first and then continues retrieving progressively older ledgers. If this parameter is omitted, the Backfiller begins with the newest validated ledger.

The --stopIndex parameter defines the oldest ledger to retrieve. The Backfiller stops after it retrieves this ledger. If omitted, the Backfiller continues as far back as possible. Because backfilling goes from most recent to least recent, the stop index should be a smaller than the start index.

Caution: The Backfiller is best for filling in relatively short histories of transactions. Importing a complete history of all Ripple transactions using the Backfiller could take weeks. If you want a full history, we recommend acquiring a database dump with early transctions, and importing it directly. For the public server, Ripple (the company) used the internal SQLite database from an offline rippled to populate its historical databases with the early transactions, then used the Backfiller to catch up to date after the import finished.

Example usage:

// get ledgers #1,000,000 to #2,000,000 (inclusive) and store in HBase
node import/hbase/backfill --startIndex 2000000 --stopIndex 1000000
