Polkadot chain database snapshots
A collection of database snapshots for Polkadot, Kusama, Westend, and Rococo relaychains and system parachains.
Available in two flavors: archive and pruned. Archive database retains the full history of blocks. Pruned keeps only the state of the past 256 or 1000 blocks (set --state-pruning 256 or --state-pruning 1000 flag on your node).
How to use
We recommend using the rclone (>1.63.0) utility to download a snapshot. Install it first by following the instructions on the official download page.
Download the snapshot:
export SNAPSHOT_URL="https://snapshots.polkadot.io/[snapshot_name]/[date]" # Use URL from the table below
export PATH_TO_DB_FOLDER="$HOME/.local/share/polkadot/chains/[chain_path]" # Replace by folder name (same as the id field in chainspec)
rclone copyurl $SNAPSHOT_URL/files.txt files.txt
rclone copy --progress --transfers 20 --http-url $SNAPSHOT_URL --no-traverse --http-no-head --disable-http2 --inplace --no-gzip-encoding --size-only --retries 6 --retries-sleep 10 --files-from files.txt :http: $PATH_TO_DB_FOLDER
