Solana: General “Onlogs” Auditor’s questions – Listen to “Treaty”, “Confirmed” and “Finalized”

As a Solana developer, you are probably aware of the importance of effective and reliable transaction treatment. One way of achieving it is to use listeners in collaboration with transactions. An auditor is a function that responds to specific events or messages once a transaction has been treated on the blockchain. In this article, we will explore some common questions related to Solana’s “Onlog” auditor.

What are the “onlogs” listeners?

Onsolana, also known as “Onlogs”, is an event system that allows developers to create personalized listeners to respond to specific events after the transaction on the blockchain. These listeners can be used to inform other applications of the status of a transaction, for example if it has succeeded or failed.

Listen to “Treaty”

When you listen to “treated” events, you want to know that a transaction has ended and its result is available. In Solana, this event is issued when the transaction has been fully treated and confirmed by the node.

However, if you use an `on-processed 'listener, it will only be triggered after the end of all stages of treatment, which can cause unnecessary delays or attempts. To minimize latency, consider listening to the "confirmed" events instead.

The use of theOnConfirMed listener” can be a good option if you need to respond quickly after the start of transactions treatment.

Listen to ‘finalized’

When you listen to “finalized” events, you want to know that the transaction has been fully treated and that its result is available. In Solana, this event is issued when all stages of treatment ended, including the signature, distribution and confirmation.

The use of the “Onfinalized” listener can be a good option if you need to respond quickly once the processing of transactions is completed.

Additional considerations

Before choosing a type of event, consider the following factors:

• Latence requirements: if the immediate response is critical, listen to “treated” events.

• Order of the event: first listen to the “confirmed” or “finalized” events to ensure the order of correct events.

• Additional context: Consider including an additional context with the result of your transaction to provide a more complete image.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the Solana event system facilitates the creation of personalized listeners to respond to specific events after the treatment of a transaction. By choosing the right type of event and taking into account latency requirements, developers can create effective and reliable transaction treatment solutions on Solana.

If you create a transaction solution for your application, be sure to explore the types of available events and choose the best option for your use case.
