Motivation

We want to investigate an approach to blockchain scanning in zebra using existing crates.

Specifications

One potential approach would be to send a single compactblock from a test function to the existing crate and check the results.

We can then try with multiple blocks or other more complex scenarios.

Possible Design

• Read blocks from disk and convert them into CompactBlocks - poc(scanner): get started with the blockchain scanner proof of concept #7758
• Parse a hard-coded viewing key - test(scan): Scan the first 10 blocks with the ZECpages viewing key #7903

Follow Up Task

• Admin: Add a branch protection rule for Build crates individually / Build zebra-scan crate
