Docker & docker-compose

---

Ensure you have following version of docker & docker-compose

• docker-compose : 1.11.0 or above

Bootstrapping the Environment

Step1: Clone the repository

---

cd $HOME
git clone https://github.com/harsha544/supplier-retailer-app

Step 2: Change Directory

---

cd supplier-retailer-app

Step 3: Bring up Blockchain Network

---

sh build_ubuntu.sh

Step 4: Use Node v8.11.2

---

nvm install v8.11.2

Step 5: Installing composer utilities

---

npm install

Step 6: Update PATH to include composer binaries

---

cd $HOME/
export PATH=$PATH:$PWD/node_modules/.bin/

Step 7: Update Supplier-Peer PEM Values in $PWD/composer/supplier-retailer.json

---

cd $HOME/supplier-retailer-app

• awk 'NF {sub(/\r/, ""); printf "%s\\n",$0;}' cli/peers/peerOrganizations/supplier1-org/peers/supplier1-peer/tls/ca.crt > composer/supplier1Peer/supplier1-ca.txt
  cat composer/supplier1Peer/supplier1-ca.txt
  

• awk 'NF {sub(/\r/, ""); printf "%s\\n",$0;}' cli/peers/peerOrganizations/supplier2-org/peers/supplier2-peer/tls/ca.crt > composer/supplier2Peer/supplier2-ca.txt
  cat composer/supplier2Peer/supplier2-ca.txt
  

• awk 'NF {sub(/\r/, ""); printf "%s\\n",$0;}' cli/peers/peerOrganizations/supplier3-org/peers/supplier3-peer/tls/ca.crt > composer/supplier3Peer/supplier3-ca.txt
  cat composer/supplier3Peer/supplier3-ca.txt
  

for i in 1 2 3 ; do  printf "\n supplier$i \n"; cat composer/supplier"$i"Peer/supplier"$i"-ca.txt ; done

Open composer/supplier-retailer.json and update
INSERT_ORG1_CA_CERT , INSERT_ORG2_CA_CERT, INSERT_ORG3_CA_CERT
with supplier$i values from above respectively.

Step 8: Update Orderer PEM Values in $PWD/composer/supplier-retailer.json

---

awk 'NF {sub(/\r/, ""); printf "%s\\n",$0;}' cli/peers/ordererOrganizations/orderer-org/orderers/orderer0/tls/ca.crt > composer/orderer-ca.crt
cat composer/orderer-ca.crt
Open composer/supplier-retailer.json and update INSERT_ORDERER_CA_CERT with above value

Step 9: Customizing the connection profile for respective supplier organization

---

cp composer/supplier-retailer.json composer/supplier-retailer_org.json

Update this block of code between sections version and channels, via which we enforce timeout period in supplier-retailer_org.json

"client": { 
        "organization": "SupplierXOrg",
        "connection": { 
            "timeout": { 
                "peer": { 
                    "endorser": "300",
                    "eventHub": "300",
                    "eventReg": "300"
                },
                "orderer": "300"
            }
        }
    },

Copy above generated supplier-retailer_org.json to respective supplierXPeer

cp composer/supplier-retailer_org.json composer/supplier1Peer/supplier-retailer-org1.json
cp composer/supplier-retailer_org.json composer/supplier2Peer/supplier-retailer-org2.json
cp composer/supplier-retailer_org.json composer/supplier3Peer/supplier-retailer-org3.json

P.S

Ensure you update "organization": "SupplierXOrg" for respective Supplier accordingly in each supplier-retailer-orgX.json , where X=1,2,3

Step 10: Locating the certificate and private key for the Hyperledger Fabric administrator for each Supplier

---

Locating certificates files respective supplier i.e identifying public part of identity for the users usually found under signcerts

export ORG1=cli/peers/peerOrganizations/supplier1-org/users/Admin@supplier1-org/msp/
export ORG2=cli/peers/peerOrganizations/supplier2-org/users/Admin@supplier2-org/msp/
export ORG3=cli/peers/peerOrganizations/supplier3-org/users/Admin@supplier3-org/msp/

cp -p $ORG1/signcerts/A*.pem composer/supplier1Peer/
cp -p $ORG2/signcerts/A*.pem composer/supplier2Peer/
cp -p $ORG3/signcerts/A*.pem composer/supplier3Peer/

Identify private key for the user which is used for signing transactions and found under keystore

cp -p $ORG1/keystore/*_sk composer/supplier1Peer/

cp -p $ORG2/keystore/*_sk composer/supplier2Peer/

cp -p $ORG3/keystore/*_sk composer/supplier3Peer/

Step 11: Creating business network cards for the Hyperledger Fabric administrator for all Orgs

---

cd $HOME/supplier-retailer-app/composer/

• composer card create -p supplier1Peer/supplier-retailer-org1.json -u PeerAdmin -c supplier1Peer/Admin@supplier1-org-cert.pem -k supplier1Peer/*_sk -r PeerAdmin -r ChannelAdmin -f supplier1Peer/PeerAdmin@supplier-retailer-org1.card
  

• composer card create -p supplier2Peer/supplier-retailer-org2.json -u PeerAdmin -c supplier2Peer/Admin@supplier2-org-cert.pem -k supplier2Peer/*_sk -r PeerAdmin -r ChannelAdmin -f supplier2Peer/PeerAdmin@supplier-retailer-org2.card
  

• composer card create -p supplier3Peer/supplier-retailer-org3.json -u PeerAdmin -c supplier3Peer/Admin@supplier3-org-cert.pem -k supplier3Peer/*_sk -r PeerAdmin -r ChannelAdmin -f supplier3Peer/PeerAdmin@supplier-retailer-org3.card
  

Step 12: Importing the business network cards for the Hyperledger Fabric administrator for all Orgs

---

composer card import -f supplier1Peer/PeerAdmin@supplier-retailer-org1.card --card PeerAdmin@supplier-retailer-org1
composer card import -f supplier2Peer/PeerAdmin@supplier-retailer-org2.card --card PeerAdmin@supplier-retailer-org2
composer card import -f supplier3Peer/PeerAdmin@supplier-retailer-org3.card --card PeerAdmin@supplier-retailer-org3

Issue composer card list to verify whether cards have been imported successfully or not

Step 13: Installing the business network onto the Hyperledger Fabric peer nodes

---

cd $HOME/supplier-retailer-app/chaincode/composer/
composer network install --card PeerAdmin@supplier-retailer-org1 --archiveFile retailer-supplier@0.0.1.bna
composer network install --card PeerAdmin@supplier-retailer-org2 --archiveFile retailer-supplier@0.0.1.bna
composer network install --card PeerAdmin@supplier-retailer-org3 --archiveFile retailer-supplier@0.0.1.bna

Step 14: Starting the business network

---

cd $HOME/supplier-retailer-app/composer
composer network start -n retailer-supplier -A admin -S adminpw -V 0.0.2-deploy.6 -c PeerAdmin@supplier-retailer-org1

Step 15: Importing a business network card to access the business network

---

cd $HOME/supplier-retailer-app/chaincode/composer/
composer card import -f admin@retailer-supplier.card

Step 16: Generating the REST APIs server

---

cd $HOME/supplier-retailer-app/composer

Invoke composer-rest-server to start REST Server on http://localhost:8080

composer-rest-server
? Enter the name of the business network card to use: admin@retailer-supplier
? Specify if you want namespaces in the generated REST API: never use namespaces
? Specify if you want to use an API key to secure the REST API: No
? Specify if you want to enable authentication for the REST API using Passport: No
? Specify if you want to enable event publication over WebSockets: Yes
? Specify if you want to enable TLS security for the REST API: No

Step 17: Start DCN Notifications services in background

---

cd $HOME/supplier-retailer-app/python/
nohup python database_change_notification_update_insert.py 2>&1 &1
