⚠️ [HIGH] Indexer Service Missing Dockerfile Breaks Docker Compose Setup

[ayomideadeniran]

Description

The docker-compose.yml references an indexer service that builds from ./indexer/Dockerfile, but this file does not exist.

Location

docker-compose.yml lines 43-61:

indexer:
  build:
    context: ./indexer
    dockerfile: Dockerfile
  ports:
    - "3001:3001"

Impact

• Running docker-compose up will fail with a build error
• The indexer service cannot be deployed via Docker
• No documented workaround for deploying the indexer

Required Fix

Create indexer/Dockerfile that:

1. Uses a Rust base image with cargo
2. Copies the indexer source code
3. Builds the Rust binary
4. Sets up the runtime environment (SQLite/Postgres)
5. Exposes port 3001 for WebSocket connections
