Extend auto-download of missing `cache/hord.sqlite` when using hord as a service
description
the single binary hord scan works as expected by downloading the cache/hord.sqlite if it does not exist, but when trying to spin up hord as a service and stream ordinal activity for the first time (if the file does not exist yet) we get an error
"FATAL: could not find cache/hord.sqlite"
the current workaround for anyone trying to stream ordinal activity is to first run the default binary, something like hord scan blocks 767430 767753 --mainnet which will download the cache/hord.sqlite if it does not exist yet.
expected behavior
run the hord service start commands and if cache/hord.sqlite does not exist auto-download - if it does exist, use it.
actual results
error: "FATAL: could not find cache/hord.sqlite"
Hello @ryanwaits !
The hord.sqlite db file is generated upon the start of hord as a service. An empty file is created to make possible the service running.
Can you please detail which branch are you using? Or if possible, can you please update your code and try to run the service again. Thanks!
