Subgraphs

Goldsky

Goldsky is ApeChain's trusted partner for high-performance data indexing and streaming, making it easy for developers to power dApps, analytics, and AI agents with fast, reliable access to ApeChain's on-chain data.

Goldsky offers two powerful products:

Subgraphs (opens in a new tab) allow you to index ApeChain data into a highly optimized format for instant, flexible querying.

Use subgraphs when you want to read and display on-chain data inside apps, websites, dashboards, bots, and more.

Ultra-fast reads: Query large volumes of on-chain data with millisecond response times.
Flexible GraphQL APIs: Filter, paginate, and fetch exactly the data you need.
Custom indexing logic: Handle complex event processing, join entities, build derived fields.
Auto-scaling: Goldsky automatically scales infrastructure for you, no more worrying about node ops.
Instant Deployment: Create subgraphs instantly by uploading your ABI and contract address, no GraphQL coding required (but you can fully customize if you want).

🛠️ Example Use Cases:

NFT marketplaces (fetching listings, offers, metadata)
DeFi dashboards (tracking TVL, trades, positions)
Social apps (aggregating profiles, posts, on-chain actions)
In-game marketplaces (real-time item trades and player stats)

Turbo

Turbo (opens in a new tab) is a real-time data streaming pipeline that replicates ApeChain data into your own database, letting you power complex backends, machine learning, or data analytics.

Real-time streaming: Ingest new blocks, events, transactions as they happen.
Your schema, your rules: Turbo supports flexible transformations and customizations.
Database integration: Push to Postgres, Clickhouse, or your warehouse of choice.
Perfect for AI/ML: Build embeddings, train models, and run inference on live blockchain data.

🛠️ Example Use Cases:

Powering AI agents with up-to-the-second on-chain awareness
Building custom analytics dashboards
Enabling real-time alerts and risk monitoring systems
Aggregating on-chain activity into internal data lakes

How to Get Started

Goldsky makes it fast and easy to launch a subgraph or pipeline:

Deploy via CLI: Create fully custom subgraphs or Turbo configs from your local setup.
Instant deployment: Just upload your contract ABI + address, and Goldsky generates a working subgraph for you in minutes, no GraphQL coding needed.
Leverage AI skills: Deploy, debug, and even query Turbo pipelines using your favorite AI coding assistants with AI agent skills.

Demo: Intro to Indexing with Goldsky

👉 Follow the full step-by-step guide here (opens in a new tab) to deploy on ApeChain.

If you need help designing your schema or choosing between Subgraphs and Turbo, reach out to the Goldsky team (opens in a new tab) — they're happy to guide you.

Demo: Intro to Turbo Pipelines

Turbo pipelines are Goldsky’s next generation data pipeline engine, offering significant performance improvements and new capabilities, including inter-batch parallelism and startups under 5 seconds.

Envio

Envio (opens in a new tab) is a high-performance indexing framework that natively supports any EVM chain out of the box, including ApeChain. It gives developers real-time and historical access to ApeChain's on-chain data through a single GraphQL API, with a fully managed hosting option.

Envio offers a complete toolkit for indexing and accessing ApeChain data:

HyperIndex

HyperIndex (opens in a new tab) is Envio's full-featured indexing framework that turns your ApeChain smart contract events into a highly optimized, queryable GraphQL API.

Use HyperIndex when you want to read and display on-chain data inside apps, websites, dashboards, bots, and more.

Any EVM out of the box: Index ApeChain natively using your own RPC as the data source, no waiting for dedicated support.
Flexible GraphQL APIs: Filter, paginate, and fetch exactly the data you need.
Automatic code generation: Generate a working indexer from any verified contract address with pnpx envio init.
Flexible language support: Write event handlers in TypeScript, JavaScript, or ReScript.
Reorg support: Gracefully handles chain reorganisations without sacrificing latency.
Managed or self-hosted: Deploy on Envio Cloud, or run your own setup.

🛠️ Example Use Cases:

NFT marketplaces (fetching listings, offers, metadata)
DeFi dashboards (tracking TVL, trades, positions)
Gaming and social apps (player stats, on-chain actions)
Real-time analytics and monitoring systems

HyperSync & HyperRPC

HyperSync (opens in a new tab) is Envio's high-performance data engine. Where a network is supported on HyperSync, HyperIndex uses it as the default data source for dramatically faster syncs, up to 2000x faster than traditional RPC. HyperRPC (opens in a new tab) is an extremely fast, read-only RPC for data-heavy workloads.

On ApeChain, HyperSync and HyperRPC are available today for the Curtis testnet:

HyperSync: https://curtis.hypersync.xyz
HyperRPC: https://curtis.rpc.hypersync.xyz

Why Envio for ApeChain Builders?

Native support for any EVM chain, including ApeChain, out of the box
Real-time and historical data through a single GraphQL API
Automatic indexer generation from a contract address
Managed hosting on Envio Cloud, or self-host your own deployment
Multi-chain data aggregation across EVM and non-EVM networks

How to Get Started

Initialise your indexer and import your ApeChain contract:

pnpx envio init

Choose Contract Import and provide your verified ApeChain contract address to auto-generate a config, schema, and event handlers. See the Quickstart (opens in a new tab).

Configure ApeChain in your config.yaml using chain ID 33139 and your ApeChain RPC as the data source:

name: IndexerName # Specify indexer name
chains:
  - id: 33139 # ApeChain Mainnet
    rpc:
      - url: https://YOUR_APECHAIN_RPC_URL
        for: sync
    start_block: START_BLOCK_NUMBER
    contracts:
      - name: ContractName
        address:
          - "0xYourContractAddress"
        events:
          - event: Event

See the RPC data source guide (opens in a new tab) and the configuration guide (opens in a new tab) for the full set of options.

Run or deploy: run your indexer locally with Docker, or deploy it with a git-based workflow on Envio Cloud (opens in a new tab).
Query your indexed ApeChain data through the GraphQL API.

If you need help setting up your indexer, reach out to the Envio team (opens in a new tab) on Discord, where they are always happy to help.
