Research direction

Start by reviewing the CometBFT data-structures documentation and the dependency on kwil-db issue #995, then inspect the linked instrumentation and validator-monitoring issues (#573, #575, #583, and #584). Done requires defining whether this goal covers an API only, a metrics pipeline, visualization, or a combination of them.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

type: goal

Objective

Assess the participation of validators (node operators) in the network during normal operations.

Description

For example, a visual representation of this could be a graph showing how many blocks a day a certain operator was also supporting the network.

The mechanism includes a node's signature that gets validated, and then the indexer exposes its public key on block information after the consensus.

Probably, the internal cometBFT endpoint already supports that: https://github.com/cometbft/cometbft/blob/v0.38.x/spec/core/data_structures.md

Then, what is the easiest path to expose this data from the kwil indexer? Should we expose a node cometBFT API endpoint?

To Do

Define what is the scope of this goal:

  • just providing API to get the data
  • create the metrics consumption pipeline
  • visualizing data
