fixes #120

What was the issue?

As described in issue #120 Statistics-service was not able to discover and list all the nodes in the network. It was using some static node list in the configuration to query the node/peers and those queries were being fired at the same time therefore most of them was timing out.

What's the fix?

  • In addition to the static node list in the configuration(env vars), we are now adding all the nodes in the database to the list and running node/peers API calls in this large list.
  • Calling node/peers endpoint in chunks now, handling the next chunk after the current one is complete, the default chunk size is 50, but it's configurable through the env var NODE_PEERS_REQUEST_CHUNK_SIZE
  • ChainHeight monitoring task is refactored to process nodes in chunks
  • Logging is enhanced
  • Known issues => Clean up stale nodes from DB #122

The this.nodeList will contain all types of nodes.
Should it just use apiNodeList instead of this.nodeList to request the NodePeers?

Interesting, I specifically created the apiNodeList for this use, must have been regressed during the refactoring, fixed now.

});
logger.info(`[getNodeList] Nodes count from DB: ${nodesFromDb.length}`);
// adding the nodes from DB to the node list
this.addNodesToList(nodesFromDb);

Seems like dead / disconnected nodes can stay in the list forever, or do we exclude them?

It's a known issue, explained in the PR description, addressed in issue #122

Look good mate.

but I believe we need this solution asap #122.
It will affect the node count issue here

this.nodeList.forEach((node) => this.nodesStats.addToStats(node));

Is this correct naming?
