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.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.Install Goldsky CLI and log in
Install Goldsky CLI and log in
-
Install the Goldsky CLI:
For macOS/Linux:
For Windows:Windows users need to have Node.js and npm installed first. Download from nodejs.org if not already installed.
- Go to your Project Settings page and create an API key.
-
Back in your Goldsky CLI, log into your Project by running the command
goldsky loginand paste your API key. -
Now that you are logged in, run
goldskyto get started:
Install Turbo CLI extension
Install Turbo CLI extension
If you already have the Goldsky CLI installed, install the Turbo extension by running:This will automatically install the Turbo extension. Verify the installation:For a complete reference of all Turbo CLI commands, see the CLI Reference guide.
Make sure to update the CLI to the latest version before running Turbo commands:
curl https://goldsky.com | shInstall Compose CLI extension
Install Compose CLI extension
If you already have the Goldsky CLI installed, install the Compose extension by running:To update to the latest version:For more details, see the Compose quickstart guide.
Subgraphs
MAINNET SUPPORTEDTESTNET SUPPORTEDPARTNER SPONSOREDSwellchain subgraphs can be deployed on Goldsky in 2 ways:- Via CLI from a local subgraph configuration file. If you are familiar with developing subgraphs already, you'll be familiar with this approach; after defining a subgraph locally (with a
subgraph.yamlfile, aschema.graphqlfile, and the necessary mappings to translate raw event data into the entities defined in the schema), you can deploy subgraphs to Goldsky (once the Goldsky CLI is installed) usinggoldsky subgraph deploy <name>/<version> --path .For more, read the step-by-step guide. - Via instant subgraphs, where you can pass through a contract address and the ABI for that contract. This is a quick-start option that automatically generates the underlying subgraph configuration files on your behalf, making it easy to extract blockchain event data and serve it as an API endpoint without complex setup. Use the
--from-abiflag in the command above instead of--path. For more, read the low-code subgraphs guide.
Mirror
MAINNET SUPPORTEDTESTNET 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
NOT YET AVAILABLETurbo provides high-performance streaming data pipelines with sub-second latency for real-time blockchain data. Learn more about what you can build with Turbo in the Turbo documentation. Turbo is not currently enabled for Swellchain, but we'd love to change that.From the Swellchain team?

Usage examples
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 Swellchain, but we'd love to change that. From the Swellchain team?
