eth-duties

ETH-duties logs upcoming validator duties to the console in order to find the best maintenance period for your validator(s). In general the tool was developed to mainly help home stakers but it still can be used on a larger scale (see usage examples for the binary and docker).

Note on docker latest tag: Currently the docker image tag latest refers to the latest changes on the main branch. Please be aware of that if you decide to use this tag.

What to expect

Beside the actual functionality of logging upcoming duties I added some kind of UX in form of color coding.

The color coding comprises of:

Color Description
GREEN Indicates upcoming block proposer duties
YELLOW The upcoming duty will be performed in less than a defined timeframe (default 2 minutes) or your validator was chosen to be part in the next sync committee
RED The upcoming duty will be performed in less than a defined timeframe (default 1 minute) or your validator is part of the current sync committee

Examples

  1. Attestion duties for some validators attestations
  2. Block proposing duties for some validators proposing
  3. Sync committee duties for some validators sync_committee

If you like the tool and think this needs to be supported I highly appreciate any donations. Donations can be send in ETH, any ERC-20 or on Layer2 to the following address: 0x89a6EeC1FAbC802741475259cBdeAC7d45FAc14a.
