A Tendermint client fetches blocks from a specified node and stores certain events occurrences in for each block in MongoDB.
In the current case these are the Thorchain events bond_rewards and UpdateNodeStatus. Never-the-less, it works for all CosmosSDK projects, since it retrieves ABCI data, which is not business logic specific.
This daemon runs until it catches up with current block height and then alternates between sleeping and fetching.
Per default, it will connect to a MongoDB instance behind mongodb://thornode_bot_mongodb:27017.
If TM_CLIENT_DEV is passed, it will connect to mongodb://localhost:27017.
This project is part of the Thorchain Telegram Bot. It is provided as a docker image on DockerHub. The Tendermint client used is still on version 0.33.4, which uses the amino protocol (with version 0.34.4 protobuf was introduced).
To build it run go build ./tendermintClient.go.
To run it type ./tendermintClient
