HOW TO

Guides on how to run this project

Setting up hypeledger fabric (hlf) testnet

The first thing you need to do is to setup the fabric network

while in the project root switch to script dir

    # change directory to scripts
    cd scripts

run setup script (this scripts helps setup the network and create a channel "mychannel" with couchDb and CA enabled)

    # setup hlf testnet
    ./setup.sh

After setting up the fabric testnet, you can deploy the chaincode to the channel (mychannel)

    # deploy chaincode to "mychannel"
    ./deploy.sh

Now you can simulate creating a user
- To simulate creation of userA, run the simulate script
```
    # simulate creation of default user [userA]
    ./simulate.sh
```
- To simulate creation of another user, pass the username as an argument
```
    # simulate creation of custom user 
    ./simulate.sh userB
```

The testnetwork should now be completely setup with atleast on user.

Running the go application

To run the gateway application for simulating user activities,

    # cd into gateway dir from root
    cd gateway

    # run go app
    go run .

NOTE: To simulate different smart contract functions, you have to make some edits to the app.go for function calls and connect.go to change the current user interacting with the blockchain network.
