Event hooks

Every DipDup project has multiple event hooks (previously "default hooks"); they fire on system-wide events and, like regular hooks, are not linked to any index. Names of those hooks are reserved; you can't use them in config. It's also impossible to fire them manually or with a job scheduler.

on_restart

This hook executes right before starting indexing. It allows configuring DipDup in runtime based on data from external sources. Datasources are already initialized at execution and available at ctx.datasources. You can, for example, configure logging here or add contracts and indexes in runtime instead of from static config.

on_reindex

This hook fires after the database are re-initialized after reindexing (wipe). Helpful in modifying schema with arbitrary SQL scripts before indexing.

on_synchronized

This hook fires when every active index reaches a realtime state. Here you can clear caches internal caches or do other cleanups.

on_index_rollback

Fires when TzKT datasource has received a chain reorg message which can't be processed by dropping buffered messages (buffer_size option).

Since version 6.0 this hook performs a database-level rollback by default. If it doesn't work for you for some reason remove ctx.rollback call and implement your own rollback logic.
