Integration Architecture Diagram

Milestone 1:Support XDC Smart Contracts for Analytics & Visualization

Website Integration Development

a.XDC network integration for smart contracts at registration page.

b.Integrate API to fetch XDC smart contracts to be displayed in autocomplete.

Features
The below features will be available to XDC Dapps and ecosystem users after the integration:

Sync XDC projects: Connect any XDC project by providing a subgraph GraphQL endpoint or by selecting smart contracts from autocomplete.
Browse XDC projects dataset: Explore and browse XDC projects Dapp data in simple and intuitive tabular form. https://analytics.dapplooker.com/browse/2
Write SQL Queries: Write SQL queries using an intuitive visual SQL editor on the XDC project dataset. Users can query, filter, join, and group by on the XDC projects dataset.
Community Analytics: Community analytics can be done on the indexed XDC dataset.
Create, Fork, and Edit Charts: Choose from more than dozens of visualization types to create the best charts. You can create, edit, and fork charts
Create Dashboard: Using the drag and drop feature of dashboard builder, create and fork dashboards. Gather info from multiple sources into a single dashboard.
hare Dashboard: Share dashboards on a URL anywhere you need. Export the charts in popular formats like CSV, XLS and JSON.
Analytics on Multichain Data: Analyze & query multiple XDC projects data and build awesome charts & dashboards. Users can compare and monitor Dapp data of multiple networks at a single place.
Collections / Folders: Use collections to organize your charts/dashboards and to decide who gets to see and edit things. Using collections you can make your charts/dashboards private or public.
Advance Analytics: Do advanced analytics like funnel analysis, user retention analysis to monitor active users activity and take appropriate action.

Indexer Development

Implement an indexer to index XDC network data in an easy queryable schema format for analytics.
Store indexed data. Storage will depend on the volume and complexity of the data.
Implement transformations to Index XDC dApps data in an easily queryable format.
Define a data schema that defines the structure and format of the XDC network data being indexed. This schema will ensure consistency and ease of access to the data.
Implement the data schema.

1. Price Oracle

Price oracle data(token pricing details) for different networks is available here: https://analytics.dapplooker.com/browse/2/schema/price_oracle
(As part of integration support XDC Ecosystem tokens pricing data)
The pricing data is available for download via CSV, excel, or JSON.

2. API SDK

The API SDK empowers developers to seamlessly integrate XDC network data into Dapps, providing them with the essential tools to create innovative and engaging decentralized applications.

Utilizing this SDK, the XDC network and its community can access trending and popular analyses, thus enhancing the functionality and user experience of their Dapps.

3. Embedding of charts/dashboards

Charts and dashboards created on the DappLooker platform can be seamlessly embedded into your native environment.

This empowers you to infuse your valuable, data-driven insights, enriching your decision-making processes.

4. Documentation

Document a step-to-step guide to using XDC Ecosystem Analytics on DappLooker.
Publish a guide on DappLooker with supporting images.
Make Community announcements on social media and other channels.

Milestone 2:Creation of XDC Network dApp to be hosted on https://xdcanalyzer.com :

Dapp Development

Create https://xdcanalyzer.com as a complete ecosystem overview Dapp.
Design a great (XDC-themed) UI for the analytics Dapp.
Create 4 detailed interfaces for monitoring XDC Ecosystem, namely: Network Health Monitor, Network Performance Monitor, Token Analysis Monitor and Security & Compliance Monitor (details below)
Embed the 4 XDC Ecosystem Monitors on for the community, powered by Dapplooker.
For Reference NFTX Monitor Dapp: (https://nft.dapplooker.com/)
Launch https://xdcanalyzer.com

1. Network Health Monitor:

Best Block: The current best block number on the XinFin network.
Avg Transaction Rate: The transaction rate of the last block.
Avg Block Time: The average time it takes to mine a block.
Active Nodes: The number of active nodes out of the total nodes.
Gas Price: The current gas price in Wei.
Max Block Size: The maximum block size in gas.
Uptime: Total network uptime.
Block Time: Real-time monitoring of block generation.
Transactions Per Block: Number of transactions in the latest block.
