disable caching token list

[shichengripple001]

it seems search a token isn't working.
Can we remove the caching token step? so that we don't have to provide a GCP credential?

explorer/server/routes/v1/tokenDiscovery.js

Line 140 in a123225

cacheTokensList()

[ckniffen]

That is used for the token page. Search is provided by xrpl-meta.

[shichengripple001]

can we retrieve the list from xrpl-meta, instead of retrieving from the Bigquery dataset?

[achowdhry-ripple]

Yes we can, and is planned to be implemented in the first half of 2025 (removing Bigquery usage in Explorer along with a full token page revamp in general).

Separately, I'm not seeing any issues with the token search -- can you describe what issue you're seeing?

[shichengripple001]

if i search for RLUSD for example in the search bar, I get a 404.
https://livenet.xrpl.org/search/RLUSD the url generated automatically for the search

[achowdhry-ripple]

I see how the explorer behavior there is confusing, clicking "enter" doesn't navigate you to the search result intended (need to manually click the result). What we can do is raise an issue for this, with the solution being some form of checking for search results and automatically navigating to the first one.

Will raise a new issue with these details
