Key Files

tasks.ts - Single Source of Truth

Defines all task keys and scheduled jobs:

export const KEYS = {
  ETH_PRICE: "fetch-eth-price",
  L2BEAT: "fetch-l2beat",
  // ...
} as const

const DAILY: Task[] = [
  [KEYS.APPS, fetchApps],
  [KEYS.EVENTS, fetchEvents],
]

const HOURLY: Task[] = [
  [KEYS.ETH_PRICE, fetchEthPrice],
  [KEYS.BEACONCHAIN, fetchBeaconChain],
]

index.ts - Simple Getters

One-liner passthrough functions:

export const getEthPrice = () => get<MetricReturnData>(KEYS.ETH_PRICE)
export const getL2beatData = () => get<L2beatData>(KEYS.L2BEAT)

storage.ts - Storage Abstraction

Simple get/set that switches between Netlify Blobs (prod) and local JSON files (dev):

export async function get<T>(key: string): Promise<T | null>
export async function set(key: string, data: unknown): Promise<void>

Uses USE_MOCK_DATA=true env var for local development.

Rules

1. Getters must be pure passthrough

No transformations in index.ts - just get<T>(KEYS.X):

// Correct
export const getEventsData = () => get<EventItem[]>(KEYS.EVENTS)

// Wrong - no transformations in getters
export const getEventsData = () => {
  const data = await get<EventItem[]>(KEYS.EVENTS)
  return data?.map(transform) ?? null
}

All transformations belong in the fetcher (src/data-layer/fetchers/).

2. KEYS is the single source of truth

All task IDs are defined in KEYS in tasks.ts. The getter in index.ts and the task tuple in DAILY/HOURLY must use the same key.

3. Expose via lib/data for caching

Add cached wrapper in src/lib/data/index.ts:

export const getEventsData = createCachedGetter(
  dataLayer.getEventsData,
  ["events-data"],
  CACHE_REVALIDATE_DAY  // or CACHE_REVALIDATE_HOUR
)

Adding a New Data Source

1. Create fetcher in src/data-layer/fetchers/fetchNewData.ts:

   typescriptCopy

   export async function fetchNewData(): Promise<YourDataType> {
     // Fetch and transform data here
   }
   

2. Add key to KEYS in src/data-layer/tasks.ts:

   typescriptCopy

   export const KEYS = {
     // ...existing keys
     NEW_DATA: "fetch-new-data",
   } as const
   

3. Add task tuple to DAILY or HOURLY in tasks.ts:

   typescriptCopy

   const DAILY: Task[] = [
     // ...existing tasks
     [KEYS.NEW_DATA, fetchNewData],
   ]
   

4. Add getter in src/data-layer/index.ts:

   typescriptCopy

   export const getNewData = () => get<YourDataType>(KEYS.NEW_DATA)
   

5. Add mock file at src/data-layer/mocks/fetch-new-data.json for local development

6. Add cached wrapper in src/lib/data/index.ts:

   typescriptCopy

   export const getNewData = createCachedGetter(
     dataLayer.getNewData,
     ["new-data"],
     CACHE_REVALIDATE_HOUR
   )
