As a developer, I'd like to have a service that retrieves the information of a stake pool based on its ticker (or all the stake pools with that ticker, I know there can be duplicates).

I'm thinking that with graphql I need to query first the list of stakePools (which is huge) and then filter that by ticker, which is inside the metadata of the pool.

Is there a way to do this in a more performing way or a service already solving this for me?

The list of stake pools should only be a couple of thousand which is tiny in comparison to number of blocks or even worse the number of transactions.

It can be done with a relatively simple SQL query on the database maintained by cardano-db-sync.

  • Is it possible to query the ticker of a pool directly from the db? Or should I have to get first the URL of the metadata? I understand that the ticker is not a field in the stake pools database. Am I right? Thank you. Jun 27, 2022 at 6:12

    The ticker is stored in the db. You want the ticker_name field of the pool_offline_data table, Jun 28, 2022 at 7:12
