⛓️ Setting up Additional RPCs within Slinky

Setting up Additional RPCs within Slinky

Within Slinky, validators can add more authenticated RPC endpoints to report decentralized price data from supported blockchains (e.g. Solana, Ethereum, Base...).

To do this, head over to your oracle.json config and add or update your provider entry for endopints. Make sure that the RPC you are adding supports authentication via adding a x-api-key field within the header.

For example, if you wanted to add a new RPC with the URL skiprpc.com with the API key skip123 for the Raydium Solana API provider, you would end up with a config like so:

{
  "providers": [
    {
      "name": "raydium_api",
      "api": {
        "enabled": true,
        "timeout": 500000000,
        "interval": 500000000,
        "reconnectTimeout": 2000000000,
        "maxQueries": 10,
        "atomic": false,
        "url": "",
        "endpoints": [
          {
            "url": "https://api.devnet.solana.com"
          },
          {
            "url": "skiprpc.com",
            "authentication": {
              "apiKeyHeader": "x-api-key",
              "apiKey": "skip123"
            }
          }
        ],
        "batchSize": 50,
        "name": "raydium_api"
      }
    }
  ]
}

After this is completed, save you config file, and restart your node!

The supported decentralized providers for which this is applicable are:

• raydium_api
• uniswapv3_api-ethereum
