In the substrate archive wiki, they showed how to archive the polkadot chain's data. Now I want to get other chains' data (like a substrate template node or Astar, Moonbeam, etc). How can I do that?

In the node-template-archive/archive.toml file, I changed the network rockdb directory appropriately. This is the command I used for Shiden network (Astar testnet)

./node-template-archive -c /home/minhnd/Documents/substrate/substrate-archive/bin/node-template-archive/archive.toml

The log:

Error: Expected chain polkadot got shiden

So I got this Expected chain polkadot got shiden error message. I really don't know what to do and how to solve this.

    @dvdplm's answer is right, node-template archive is the place to get started with this. If you want to index a custom chain like Shiden you will also want to edit the imported runtime to reflect shiden's RuntimeApi and Block type to point to the ones from shiden github.com/paritytech/substrate-archive/blob/…

  • The error is a safety check to make sure that whatever runtime archive is running is the one it expects. It checks the runtime of the locally-run chain and the runtime that polkadot-archive is using and found a mismatch

The substrate template node is available here and you can run it with cargo run --release --bin node-template-archive. As for indexing parachains I am actually not sure but I believe it could be as easy as simply providing the chain spec and point it to the rocksdb folder. If that doesn't work feel free to open a feature request!

I solved the problem. Before I had run the Shiden network, I run the command for polkadot network and I forgot to delete the postgres db (or change the path in the config file to the new db). After creating a new postgres db and change the uri in the config file, the problem solved.
