Improve explorer visualization to show hermez node synchronization status #1131

Open tclemos opened 2 years ago

tclemos commented 2 years ago

Rationale

When the boot coordinator is under synchronization or it is out of sync, we are not showing this information to the users.

Implementation

Change the UI behavior to show a synchronization state with the information provided by the state API.

As an example, we could use the information lastEthereumBlock and lastSynchedBlock, if they are different, the node is not synchronized.

{
  "network": {
    "lastEthereumBlock": 5463219,
    "lastSynchedBlock": 5463219,
  },
}

Also, the frontend could have another API directly consumed from an Ethereum node in other to have a different source of the lastEthereumBlock.
