Overview

Goldsky is the modern back-end for crypto-enabled products; the infrastructure layer between your application and the blockchain. We handle the complex, undifferentiated work of building on crypto rails: streaming real-time data, maintaining reliable chain connectivity, and executing onchain logic. Teams use Goldsky to ship faster and stay focused on their core product. Fogo is a purpose-built Layer 1 blockchain designed for high-performance trading with sub-40ms blocks, sub-second confirmation, and SVM L1 compatibility. Built on a custom Firedancer client, Fogo delivers the speed and reliability demanded by modern finance.

Partnership

Goldsky has partnered with to make our product available to the ecosystem and provide dedicated support for . Below in the overview of each product, the “Partner Sponsored” tag indicates that usage of that product is fully covered by the chain, if approved by the team. Where this perk is available, please reach out to the developer relations team for an access code to the private signup form.

Getting started

To use Goldsky, you’ll need to create an account, install the CLI, and log in. If you want to use Turbo or Compose, you’ll also need to install their respective CLI extensions.
  1. Install the Goldsky CLI: For macOS/Linux:
    curl https://goldsky.com | sh
    
    For Windows:
    npm install -g @goldskycom/cli
    
    Windows users need to have Node.js and npm installed first. Download from nodejs.org if not already installed.
  2. Go to your Project Settings page and create an API key.
  3. Back in your Goldsky CLI, log into your Project by running the command goldsky login and paste your API key.
  4. Now that you are logged in, run goldsky to get started:
    goldsky
    
If you already have the Goldsky CLI installed, install the Turbo extension by running:
goldsky turbo
This will automatically install the Turbo extension. Verify the installation:
goldsky turbo list
Make sure to update the CLI to the latest version before running Turbo commands: curl https://goldsky.com | sh
For a complete reference of all Turbo CLI commands, see the CLI Reference guide.
Compose is currently in private beta and access is invite-only. The following commands will not work unless you have been explicitly whitelisted by the Goldsky team. Enterprise customers can contact their Account Manager for expedited early access.
If you already have the Goldsky CLI installed, install the Compose extension by running:
goldsky compose install
To update to the latest version:
goldsky compose update
For more details, see the Compose quickstart guide.

Subgraphs

NOT COMPATIBLESubgraphs are designed for EVM-compatible chains and are not available for Fogo.Fogo uses a different virtual machine architecture. For Fogo data indexing, consider using Mirror or Turbo pipelines which support non-EVM chains.

Mirror

MAINNET SUPPORTEDMirror pipelines allow users to replicate data into their own infrastructure (any of the supported sinks) in real time, including both subgraphs as well as chain-level datasets (ie. blocks, logs, transactions, traces). Pipelines can be deployed on Goldsky in 3 ways:
  • Using Goldsky Flow on the dashboard, see walkthrough video here
  • Using the interactive CLI, by entering the command goldsky pipeline create <pipeline-name>. This will kick off a guided flow with the first step to choose the dataset type (project subgraph, community subgraph, or chain-level dataset). You'll then be guided through adding some simple filters to this data and where to persist the results.
  • Using a definition file, by entering the command goldsky pipeline create <pipeline-name> --definition-path <path-to-file>. This makes it easier to set up complex pipelines involving multiple sources, multiple sinks, and more complex, SQL-based transformations. For the full reference documentation on, click here.

Turbo

MAINNET SUPPORTEDTurbo pipelines provide high-performance streaming data pipelines with sub-second latency. Deploy a pipeline to start streaming Fogo data to your preferred destination.

Quick deploy

Create a new Turbo pipeline using the CLI:
Create pipeline
goldsky turbo deploy my-fogo-pipeline --chain fogo

Configuration file

For more complex pipelines, use a YAML configuration file:
fogo-pipeline.yaml
name: my-fogo-pipeline
sources:
  - type: evm
    chain: fogo
    start_block: latest

transforms:
  - type: sql
    query: |
      SELECT * FROM blocks

sinks:
  - type: postgres
    secret_name: MY_POSTGRES_SECRET
Deploy with:
Deploy from config
goldsky turbo deploy -f fogo-pipeline.yaml

Available chain slugs

Mainnet: fogoFor the full configuration reference and available transforms, see the Turbo documentation.

Working with Fogo datasets

Goldsky provides real-time streaming of Fogo datasets, including all historical data. The following datasets are currently available:
DatasetDescription
Transactions with InstructionsEnriched transaction data including instructions, accounts, balance changes, and metadata for the block.
RewardsRecords of rewards distributed to validators for securing and validating the network.
BlocksMetadata for each block on the chain including hashes, transaction count, slot and leader rewards.
These datasets can be used as sources in your Turbo pipelines to stream Fogo data to any of the supported sinks.

Deploying Fogo pipelines

Turbo pipelines are defined using YAML configuration files and deployed via the Goldsky CLI. Here’s the workflow:
  1. Create a pipeline configuration file - Define your sources, transforms, and sinks in a YAML file
  2. Validate your configuration - Run goldsky turbo validate fogo-pipeline.yaml to check for errors
  3. Deploy the pipeline - Run goldsky turbo apply -f fogo-pipeline.yaml to deploy
  4. Monitor your pipeline - Use goldsky turbo logs fogo-pipeline.yaml to view logs and goldsky turbo inspect fogo-pipeline.yaml to see live data
For a complete walkthrough, see the Turbo Pipelines Quickstart.
Remember to first create a Secret in order for Turbo Pipelines to be able to write the data into the database of your choice.

Example pipeline configuration

Here’s an example configuration file for streaming Fogo transactions with instructions:
fogo-transactions.yaml
name: fogo-transactions
resource_size: s

sources:
  fogo_transactions:
    type: dataset
    dataset_name: fogo.transactions_with_instructions
    version: 1.0.0
    start_block: 1000000  # Start from a specific block, or omit to start from latest

sinks:
  postgres_fogo_transactions:
    type: postgres
    from: fogo_transactions
    schema: public
    table: fogo_transactions
    secret_name: <YOUR_SECRET_NAME>
    primary_key: id
Using the start_block filter:
  • Omit start_block to start from the latest block (recommended for new pipelines)
  • Set a specific block number (e.g., start_block: 1000000) to process from that block forward
  • Use for historical processing when you need data from a specific point in time
Add your corresponding secret name and run goldsky turbo apply -f fogo-transactions.yaml to deploy the pipeline.

Edge

NOT COMPATIBLERPC Edge is designed for EVM-compatible chains and is not available for Fogo.Fogo uses a different virtual machine architecture. For Fogo data access, consider using Mirror or Turbo pipelines which support non-EVM chains.

Compose

NOT YET AVAILABLECompose lets you build offchain-to-onchain systems that durably move data and execute logic between your application and the blockchain. Learn more about what you can build with Compose in the Compose documentation. Compose is not currently enabled for Fogo, but we'd love to change that. From the Fogo team? Book a call to explore enabling Compose for your ecosystem.
