Steps to Setup

Steps to run transaction shipping system

Getting ready

• Start your source and destination networks.
• Navigate to a location where you want to run transaction shipping system and clone the project: git clone https://github.com/sm86/hyperledger-distributed-transactions.git
• Open the repository : cd hyperledger-distributed-transactions/
• Install the required dependencies : npm install
• Start the docker container for Couch: ./setup.sh
• Initialize the database: node app
• verify your initialization by checking if there are 3 databases in http://localhost:5990/_utils/

Note: Make sure port 5990 is not being used. In case you need to change it, update the port in setup.sh and db/couchdb.js

Source

This section is responsible for listening to transactions on the channel, filtering them as per policy and storing them on the transaction queue.

• Make sure source attributes are correct in config.json
• For the first time, we will enroll the admin node enrollAdmin.js
• Now, we will register user for our platform node registerUser.js

Destination

This section is responsible for retrieving from the transaction queue, processing to required format and sending the transaction onto destination.
