Background
A convenient tool to explore an Iroha2 based blockchain is desired by customers to support various use cases. Those include viewing transaction content, wallet balances, consensus specific metrics and possibly even a capability to submit an instruction. These requirements should be considered mostly for the UI rather than implicating architectural design of a potential solution.
Core functional requirements
| Priority | Type | Feature | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|
HIGH | WSV | Blocks | Paginated block history |
| Block details | Block dashboard containing transaction references, validator signatures etc | ||
| Transaction history | Paginated list of committed transactions | ||
| Transaction details | Transaction content overview, signatures, events attached etc | ||
| Domain dashboard | List of domains within the blockchain. Domain specific properties/permission should be included. Can contain a reference to the domain wallet ranking page. | ||
Asset details | Asset details such as asset creator, reference to the transaction when it was created, total supply. Ranking by the balance of the asset selected. Domain filter. Could be paginated. Applicable for Quantity assets only. | ||
| Store type assets | TBD way to sort/visualize Store assets. Could start from a specific asset details screen. | ||
| Account details | Newest transaction history, wallet assets balance, permissions, public keys. | ||
MODERATE | Consensus | Peers statistics | Overall dashboard with peers and their metrics telling about their reliability/score/blocks validated percentile (depending on the consensus specifics). |
| Telemetry | Network metrics | Arbitrary metrics exposed by peers. | |
| WSV | Search | Looking for entities (block, transaction, account, asset) by hash/id | |
LOW | State changing | Transaction composer | GUI for composing a transaction from instructions and parametrized trigger calls with an ability to download or submit to the blockchain. |
| Trigger designer | Requires more details, probably just a type/permissions settings and code uploading to start with. | ||
| Transaction pool | Transaction pool | Transaction that are not in a final state, for example multisignature transactions with not enough signatures attached |

Decisions
- TBD - Realtime updates from the blocks commitments
- Analytics - Examples & download option (xlsx,...)

Bogdan MingelaHigh priority tasks also are: List of transactions, list of events.
Bogdan Mingela
Updated the table with Transaction history, Transaction details, Search. Not sure about events, do you mean trigger invocations or something else? How will it look like?

I'm not familiar with Iroha2 well. If Transaction invocation produces events (or trigger smth) it will be good to show it.
