A basic Ethereum block explorer CLI tool. Takes a block range and returns analytics about the transactions within. See demo gifs below.
First time setup, you'll need to add an infura network key to a .env file. If you don't have one, just copy the example key:
cp .env.example .env
Install dependencies with:
yarn install
Compile typescript files with:
yarn build
Run the app with:
yarn start
**Optional: To run app via ts-node without building:
yarn dev
To run tests:
yarn test

- Exploring blocks X through Y.
