DO NOT MERGE: METRON-1086: Create a Blockly-based user interface for Stellar
## Contributor Comments
This PR is a first look at the Blockly/Stellar integration with a working example. This is POC quality code and has a long way to go. This is just an initial preview to kick off the discussion, gather requirements, and work out a design.
To take it for a test drive, spin up full dev and bring up the Management UI. Open the threat triage panel on the bro (or any) sensor and add the rule `EXISTS(ip_src_addr)`:
Click the Save button and then click on the block icon for the newly created rule. This will open the Stellar Blockly editor:
You will notice the rule that was just created is now represented as a series of connected blocks with the rule displayed in a text box just below. You can edit the rule by dragging, dropping and interacting with various blocks that represent Stellar operators and functions. Try changing the rule to `EXISTS(ip_src_addr) && IS_DOMAIN(host)` like this:
The `&&` operator is under the **Boolean** category in the toolbox to the left. The `IS_DOMAIN` function is under **Stellar -> Domain**. The purple block with the value set to `host` represents a list of fields parsed from the json in the **SAMPLE** widget at the top. This block is in the **Fields** category. If the `host` field doesn't appear in the dropdown try getting new samples (right arrow) until you get a message that contains that field:
Once you get the correct Stellar statement, save the sensor config:
Open that rule again with the Blockly editor and you should see the block statement you just created:
This preview contains only a subset of Stellar features and is very much incomplete. There is much more work to do. For this demo it is shown in context of the threat triage editor but could be used anywhere Stellar is exposed. For now I will leave you with this and let you form your own opinions about what it should evolve to. After people have had a chance to see it, we can continue the discussion on where this should go next.
