How to setup Tellor / report data on a new chain
Tellor is easy to deploy on any EVM chain.

Telliot Configuration
To configure telliot for your new EVM chain make sure you have configured your telliot first.
To show your current configuration:
1
telliot config show
Copied!
Add your EVM chain
Edit the chains file
The chains configuration file allows you to add a chain to your telliot configuration. For this example we will be adding the Kovan testnet chain. Edit the
~/telliot/chains.json and add the following:
1
{
2
"type": "Chain",
3
"name": "Ethereum Testnet Kovan",
4
"chain": "ETH",
5
"network": "kovan",
6
"chain_id": 42,
7
"currency": {
8
"type": "EVMCurrency",
9
"name": "Kovan Ether",
10
"symbol": "KOV",
11
"decimals": 18
12
}
13
}
Copied!
Edit the endpoints file
Next we'll edit the
~/telliot/endpoints.yaml file to configure Telliot to use our Kovan endpoint. If you don't have an endpoint, a free one is available at Infura.io. Simply replace INFURA_API_KEY with the one provided by Infura.Add the following to your endpoints file:
1
- type: RPCEndpoint
2
chain_id: 42
3
network: kovan
4
provider: Infura
5
url: wss://kovan.infura.io/ws/v3/{INFURA_API_KEY}
6
explorer: https://rinkeby.etherscan.io
Copied!
After your new chain has been added, you can now read the Usage section, and you'll be set to report.
