# Tutorial Hyperledger Fabric SDK Go: How to build your first app?



Source: [chainhero.io/2018/06/tutorial-build-blockchain-app-v1-1-0](https://chainhero.io/2018/06/tutorial-build-blockchain-app-v1-1-0/)



This tutorial will introduce you to the Hyperledger Fabric Go SDK and allows you to build a simple application using the blockchain principle.



**This tutorial uses Hyperledger Fabric version 1.1.0**



This is the **first part** of this tutorial. The basics SDK features will be shown, but the second part is scheduled to demonstrate a more complex application.



## 1. Prerequisites



This tutorial won’t explain in detail how Hyperledger Fabric works. I will just give some tips to understand the general behavior of the framework. If you want to get a full explanation of the tool, go to the official [documentation](http://hyperledger-fabric.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) there is a lot of work there that explains what kind of blockchain Hyperledger Fabric is.



This tutorial has been made on **Ubuntu 16.04** but the Hyperledger Fabric framework is compatible with Mac OS X, Windows and other Linux distributions.



We will use the **Go** language to design our first application because the Hyperledger Fabric has been also built in Go and the Fabric SDK Go is really simple to use. In addition, the chaincode (smart contract) can be written in Go too. So the full-stack will be only in Go! Awesome right ? However, if you are go phobic, there are other SDK like for NodeJS, Java or Python but we won't discuss about them here.



Hyperledger Fabric uses **Docker** to easily deploy a blockchain network. In addition, some components (peers) also deploys docker containers to separate data (channel). So make sure that your platform supports this kind of virtualization.



## 2. Introduction to Hyperledger Fabric



> Hyperledger Fabric is a platform for distributed ledger solutions underpinned by a modular architecture delivering high degrees of confidentiality, resiliency, flexibility and scalability. It is designed to support pluggable implementations of different components and accommodate the complexity and intricacies that exist across the economic ecosystem.



See the full explanation from the official documentation in the introduction part: [Hyperledger Fabric Blockchain](http://hyperledger-fabric.readthedocs.io/en/latest/blockchain.html)

## 3. Installation guide



This tutorial was made on **Ubuntu 16.04**, but there is help for Windows, Mac OS X and other Linux distributions users.



### a. Docker



**Docker version 17.03.0-ce or greater is required.**



#### Linux (Ubuntu)



First of all, in order to install docker correctly we need to install its dependencies:



```bash

sudo apt install apt-transport-https ca-certificates curl software-properties-common

```



Once the dependencies are installed, we can install docker:



```bash

curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo apt-key add - && \

sudo add-apt-repository "deb [arch=amd64] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu $(lsb_release -cs) stable" && \

sudo apt update && \

sudo apt install -y docker-ce

```



Now we need to manage the current user to avoid using administration rights (`root`) access when we will use the docker command. To do so, we need to add the current user to the `docker` group:



```bash

sudo groupadd docker ; \

sudo gpasswd -a ${USER} docker && \

sudo service docker restart

```



Do not mind if `groupadd: group 'docker' already exists` error pop up.



To apply the changes made, you need to logout/login. You can then check your version with:



```bash

docker -v

```



![End of the docker installation](docs/images/finish-docker-install.png)



#### Mac OS X



Download and install the latest [`Docker.dmg`](https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-mac/install/) package for Mac OS X available on the [Docker](https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-mac/install/) website. This will install `docker-compose` as well, so you can skip the next step.



#### Linux (not Ubuntu)



See links below:

- [Debian](https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation/linux/docker-ce/debian/)

- [Fedora](https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation/linux/docker-ce/fedora/)

- [CentOS](https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation/linux/docker-ce/centos/)



#### Windows



See instructions from the Docker website: [docker.com/docker-for-windows](https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-windows/install/)



### b. Docker Compose



**Docker-compose version 1.8 or greater is required.**



We are currently unable to manage easily multiple containers at once. To solve this issue, we need **docker-compose**.



#### Linux



The installation is pretty fast:



```bash

sudo curl -L https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.21.2/docker-compose-$(uname -s)-$(uname -m) -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose && \

sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose

```



Apply these changes by logout/login and then check its version with:



```bash

docker-compose version

```



![End of the docker compose installation](docs/images/finish-docker_compose-install.png)



#### Windows / Others



See instructions from the Docker-compose website: [docs.docker.com/compose/install](https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/)



### c. Go



**Go version 1.9.x or greater is required.**



#### Linux



You can either follow instructions from [golang.org](https://golang.org/dl/) or use those generics commands that will install Golang 1.9.2 and prepare your environment (generate your `GOPATH`) for Ubuntu:



```bash

wget https://storage.googleapis.com/golang/go1.9.2.linux-amd64.tar.gz && \

sudo tar -C /usr/local -xzf go1.9.2.linux-amd64.tar.gz && \

rm go1.9.2.linux-amd64.tar.gz && \

echo 'export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/go/bin' | sudo tee -a /etc/profile && \

echo 'export GOPATH=$HOME/go' | tee -a $HOME/.bashrc && \

echo 'export PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin:$GOPATH/bin' | tee -a $HOME/.bashrc && \

mkdir -p $HOME/go/{src,pkg,bin}

```



To make sure that the installation works, you can logout/login (again) and run:



```bash

go version

```



![End of the go installation](docs/images/finish-go-install.png)



#### Windows / Mac OS X / Others



See instructions from the Golang website: [golang.org/install](https://golang.org/doc/install)



## 4. Make your first blockchain network



### a. Prepare environment



In order to make a blockchain network, we will use `docker` to build virtual computers that will handle different roles. In this tutorial we will stay as simple as possible. Hyperledger Fabric needs a lot of certificates to ensure encryption during the whole end to end process (TSL, authentications, signing blocks...). The creation of these files requires a little time and in order to go straight to the heart of the matter, we have already prepared all this for you in the folder `fixtures` in this repository.



Make a new directory in the `src` folder of your `GOPATH`, following our repository naming:



```bash

mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/github.com/chainHero/heroes-service && \

cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/chainHero/heroes-service

```



To get the `fixtures` folder, you can either follow this command line, which will install and use subversion to get the folder from this repository. Or download the [zip file from Github](https://github.com/chainHero/heroes-service/archive/v1.1.0.zip) and extract only the `fixtures` folder.



```bash

sudo apt install -y subversion && \

cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/chainHero/heroes-service && \

svn checkout https://github.com/chainHero/heroes-service/branches/v1.1.0/fixtures &&

rm -rf fixtures/.svn

```



Alternatively, if you want to know how to build this fixture folder and learn how to create the blockchain network, follow this quick tutorial on [how to build your first network](https://chainhero.io/2018/04/tutorial-hyperledger-fabric-how-to-build-your-first-network/).



### b. Test



In order to check if the network works, we will use `docker-compose` to start or stop all containers at the same time. Go inside the `fixtures` folder, and run:



```bash

cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/chainHero/heroes-service/fixtures && \

docker-compose up

```



You will see a lot of logs with different colors (for your information, red isn't equal to errors).



Open a new terminal and run:



```bash

docker ps

```



![Docker compose up screenshot](docs/images/docker-ps.png)



You will see : two peers, the orderer and one CA containers. You have successfully made a new network ready to use with the SDK. To stop the network go back to the previous terminal, press `Ctrl+C` and wait that all containers are stopped. If you want to explore more deeper, follow our tutorial dedicated to the network part [here](https://chainhero.io/2018/04/tutorial-hyperledger-fabric-how-to-build-your-first-network/) or  check out the official documentation about this: [Building Your First Network](http://hyperledger-fabric.readthedocs.io/en/latest/build_network.html)



> **Tips**: when the network is stopped, all containers used remain accessible. This is very useful to check logs for example. You can see stopped containers with `docker ps -a`. In order to clean up these containers, you need to delete them with `docker rm $(docker ps -aq)` or if you have used a `docker-compose` file, go where this file is and run `docker-compose down`.



> **Tips**: you can run the `docker-compose` command in background to keep the prompt. To do so, use the parameter `-d`, like this: `docker-compose up -d`. To stop containers, place yourself in the same folder where the `docker-compose.yaml` is and run : `docker-compose stop` (or `docker-compose down` to additionally clean up all containers when they are stopped).



## 5. Use the Fabric SDK Go



### a. Configuration



Our application needs a lot of parameters, especially the addresses of the Fabric's components to communicate. We will put everything in a new configuration file, the Fabric SDK Go configuration and our custom parameters. For the moment, we will only try to make the Fabric SDK Go works with the default chaincode:



```bash

cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/chainHero/heroes-service && \

vi config.yaml

```



```yaml

    # "pkg/fab/endpointconfig.go"

    # the client is free to override the default values by uncommenting and resetting

    # the values as they see fit in their config file

#    timeout:

The configuration file is also available here: [`config.yaml`](config.yaml)



### b. Initialise



We add a new folder named `blockchain` that will contain the whole interface that communicate with the network. We will see the Fabric SDK Go only in this folder.



```bash

mkdir $GOPATH/src/github.com/chainHero/heroes-service/blockchain

```



Now, we add a new go file named `setup.go` :



```bash

vi $GOPATH/src/github.com/chainHero/heroes-service/blockchain/setup.go

```



```go

package blockchain



import (

	"fmt"

	mspclient "github.com/hyperledger/fabric-sdk-go/pkg/client/msp"

	resourceManagerClientContext := setup.sdk.Context(fabsdk.WithUser(setup.OrgAdmin), fabsdk.WithOrg(setup.OrgName))

	if err != nil {

	}

	resMgmtClient, err := resmgmt.New(resourceManagerClientContext)

	// The MSP client allow us to retrieve user information from their identity, like its signing identity which we will need to save the channel

	mspClient, err := mspclient.New(sdk.Context(), mspclient.WithOrg(setup.OrgName))

	if err != nil {

		return errors.WithMessage(err, "failed to create MSP client")

	}

	adminIdentity, err := mspClient.GetSigningIdentity(setup.OrgAdmin)

	if err != nil {

		return errors.WithMessage(err, "failed to get admin signing identity")

	}

	req := resmgmt.SaveChannelRequest{ChannelID: setup.ChannelID, ChannelConfigPath: setup.ChannelConfig, SigningIdentities: []msp.SigningIdentity{adminIdentity}}

	txID, err := setup.admin.SaveChannel(req, resmgmt.WithOrdererEndpoint(setup.OrdererID))

	if err != nil || txID.TransactionID == "" {

		return errors.WithMessage(err, "failed to save channel")

	}

	fmt.Println("Channel created")



	// Make admin user join the previously created channel

	if err = setup.admin.JoinChannel(setup.ChannelID, resmgmt.WithRetry(retry.DefaultResMgmtOpts), resmgmt.WithOrdererEndpoint(setup.OrdererID)); err != nil {

		return errors.WithMessage(err, "failed to make admin join channel")

	}

	fmt.Println("Channel joined")



	fmt.Println("Initialization Successful")

	setup.initialized = true

	return nil

}



func (setup *FabricSetup) CloseSDK() {

	setup.sdk.Close()

}



```

At this stage, we only initialized a client that will communicate to a peer, a CA and an orderer. We also made a new channel and connected this peer to this channel. See the comments in the code for more information.



### c. Test



To make sure that the client managed to initialize all his components, we will make a simple test with the network launched. In order to do this, we need to build the go code. Since we we haven't any main file we have to add one:



```bash

cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/chainHero/heroes-service && \

vi main.go

```



```go

package main



import (

	"fmt"

	"github.com/chainHero/heroes-service/blockchain"

	"os"

)



func main() {

	// Definition of the Fabric SDK properties

	fSetup := blockchain.FabricSetup{

		// Network parameters 

		OrdererID: "orderer.hf.chainhero.io",



		// Channel parameters

		ChannelID:     "chainhero",

		ChannelConfig: os.Getenv("GOPATH") + "/src/github.com/chainHero/heroes-service/fixtures/artifacts/chainhero.channel.tx",



		// Chaincode parameters

		ChainCodeID:     "heroes-service",

		ChaincodeGoPath: os.Getenv("GOPATH"),

		ChaincodePath:   "github.com/chainHero/heroes-service/chaincode/",

		OrgAdmin:        "Admin",

		OrgName:         "org1",

		ConfigFile:      "config.yaml",



		// User parameters

		UserName: "User1",

	}



	// Initialization of the Fabric SDK from the previously set properties

	err := fSetup.Initialize()

	if err != nil {

		fmt.Printf("Unable to initialize the Fabric SDK: %v\n", err)

		return

	}

	// Close SDK

	defer fSetup.CloseSDK()	

}

```



The file is available here: [`main.go`](main.go)



The last thing to do, before starting the compilation, is to use a vendor directory that will contain all our dependencies. In our GOPATH we have Fabric SDK Go and maybe other projects. When we will try to compile our app, Golang search dependencies in our GOPATH, but first it checks if there is a vendor folder in the project. If the dependency is satisfied, then Golang doesn't go looking in GOPATH or GOROOT. This is very useful when using several different versions of a dependency (some conflicts can happen, like multiple definitions of BCCSP in our case. We will handle this by using a tool like [`dep`](https://github.com/golang/dep) to flatten these dependencies in the `vendor` directory.



When you installed the SDK dependencies, DEP was automatically installed. If this is not the case, you can install it by reading the instructions available here: [dep installation](https://github.com/golang/dep#installation)



Create a file called `Gopkg.toml` and copy this inside:



```bash

cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/chainHero/heroes-service && \

vi Gopkg.toml

```



```toml

ignored = ["github.com/chainHero/heroes-service/chaincode"]



[[constraint]]

  # Release v1.0.0-alpha4

  name = "github.com/hyperledger/fabric-sdk-go"

  revision = "a906355f73d060d7bf95874a9e90dc17589edbb3"



```



This is a constraint for `dep` in order to specify that in our vendor we want the SDK Go to a specific version.



Save the file and then execute this command to synchronize the vendor directory with our project's dependencies (this may take a while to proceed):



```bash

cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/chainHero/heroes-service && \

dep ensure

```



Now we can compile our application:



```bash

cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/chainHero/heroes-service && \

go build

```



After some time, a new binary named `main` will appear at the root of the project. Try to start the binary like this:



```bash

cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/chainHero/heroes-service && \

./heroes-service

```



![Screenshot app started but no network](docs/images/start-app-no-network.png)



At this point, it won't work because there is no network deployed that the SDK can talk with. We will first start the network and then launch the app again:



```bash

cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/chainHero/heroes-service/fixtures && \

docker-compose up -d && \

cd .. && \

./heroes-service

```



![Screenshot app started and SDK initialised](docs/images/start-app-initialized.png)



> **Note**: you need to see "Initialization Successful". If it's not the case then something went wrong.



Alright! So we just initialised the SDK with our local network. In the next step, we will interact with a chaincode.



### d. Clean up and Makefile



The Fabric SDK generates some files, like certificates, binaries and temporally files. Shutting down the network won't fully clean up your environment and when you will need to start it again, these files will be reused to avoid building process. For development you can keep them to test quickly but for a real test, you need to clean up all and start from the beginning.



*How to clean up my environment ?*



- Shut down your network: `cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/chainHero/heroes-service/fixtures && docker-compose down`

- Remove credential stores (defined in the [config](config.yaml) file, in `client.credentialStore` section): `rm -rf /tmp/heroes-service-*`

- Remove some docker containers and docker images not generated by the `docker-compose` command:



```bash

docker rm -f -v `docker ps -a --no-trunc | grep "heroes-service" | cut -d ' ' -f 1` 2>/dev/null

```



and



```bash

docker rmi `docker images --no-trunc | grep "heroes-service" | cut -d ' ' -f 1` 2>/dev/null

```



*How to be more efficient ?*



We can automatize all these tasks in one single step. Also the build and start process can be automated. To do so, we will create a Makefile. First, ensure that you have the tool:



```bash

make --version

```



If `make` is not installed do (Ubuntu):



```bash

sudo apt install make

```



Then create a file named `Makefile` at the root of the project with this content:



```bash

cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/chainHero/heroes-service && \

vi Makefile

```



```makefile

.PHONY: all dev clean build env-up env-down run



all: clean build env-up run



dev: build run



##### BUILD

build:

	@echo "Build ..."

	@dep ensure

	@go build

	@echo "Build done"



##### ENV

env-up:

	@echo "Start environment ..."

	@cd fixtures && docker-compose up --force-recreate -d

	@echo "Environment up"



env-down:

	@echo "Stop environment ..."

	@cd fixtures && docker-compose down

	@echo "Environment down"



##### RUN

run:

	@echo "Start app ..."

	@./heroes-service



##### CLEAN

clean: env-down

	@echo "Clean up ..."

	@rm -rf /tmp/heroes-service-* heroes-service

	@docker rm -f -v `docker ps -a --no-trunc | grep "heroes-service" | cut -d ' ' -f 1` 2>/dev/null || true

	@docker rmi `docker images --no-trunc | grep "heroes-service" | cut -d ' ' -f 1` 2>/dev/null || true

	@echo "Clean up done"

```



The file is available here: [`Makefile`](Makefile)



Now with the task `all`:

1. the whole environment will be cleaned up,

2. then our go program will be compiled,

3. after which the network will be deployed and

4. finally the app will be up and running.



To use it, go in the root of the project and use the `make` command:



- Task `all`: `make` or `make all`

- Task `clean`: clean up everything and put down the network (`make clean`)

- Task `build`: just build the application (`make build`)

- Task `env-up`: just make the network up (`make env-up`)

- ...



### e. Install & instantiate the chaincode



We are almost there to use the blockchain system. But for now we haven't set up any chaincode (smart contract) yet that will handle queries from our application. First, let's create a new directory named `chaincode` and add a new file named `main.go` (this is the main entry point of our smart-contract):



```bash

cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/chainHero/heroes-service && \

mkdir chaincode && \

vi chaincode/main.go

```



```go

package main



import (

	"fmt"

	"github.com/hyperledger/fabric/core/chaincode/shim"

	pb "github.com/hyperledger/fabric/protos/peer"

)



// HeroesServiceChaincode implementation of Chaincode

type HeroesServiceChaincode struct {

}



// Init of the chaincode

// This function is called only one when the chaincode is instantiated.

// So the goal is to prepare the ledger to handle future requests.

func (t *HeroesServiceChaincode) Init(stub shim.ChaincodeStubInterface) pb.Response {

	fmt.Println("########### HeroesServiceChaincode Init ###########")



	// Get the function and arguments from the request

	function, _ := stub.GetFunctionAndParameters()



	// Check if the request is the init function

	if function != "init" {

		return shim.Error("Unknown function call")

	}



	// Put in the ledger the key/value hello/world

	err := stub.PutState("hello", []byte("world"))

	if err != nil {

		return shim.Error(err.Error())

	}



	// Return a successful message

	return shim.Success(nil)

}



// Invoke

// All future requests named invoke will arrive here.

func (t *HeroesServiceChaincode) Invoke(stub shim.ChaincodeStubInterface) pb.Response {

	fmt.Println("########### HeroesServiceChaincode Invoke ###########")



	// Get the function and arguments from the request

	function, args := stub.GetFunctionAndParameters()



	// Check whether it is an invoke request

	if function != "invoke" {

		return shim.Error("Unknown function call")

	}



	// Check whether the number of arguments is sufficient

	if len(args) < 1 {

		return shim.Error("The number of arguments is insufficient.")

	}

	

	// In order to manage multiple type of request, we will check the first argument.

	// Here we have one possible argument: query (every query request will read in the ledger without modification)

	if args[0] == "query" {

		return t.query(stub, args)

	}



	return shim.Error("Unknown action, check the first argument")

}



// query

// Every readonly functions in the ledger will be here

func (t *HeroesServiceChaincode) query(stub shim.ChaincodeStubInterface, args []string) pb.Response {

	fmt.Println("########### HeroesServiceChaincode query ###########")



	// Check whether the number of arguments is sufficient

	if len(args) < 2 {

		return shim.Error("The number of arguments is insufficient.")

	}



	// Like the Invoke function, we manage multiple type of query requests with the second argument.

	// We also have only one possible argument: hello

	if args[1] == "hello" {



		// Get the state of the value matching the key hello in the ledger

		state, err := stub.GetState("hello")

		if err != nil {

			return shim.Error("Failed to get state of hello")

		}



		// Return this value in response

		return shim.Success(state)

	}



	// If the arguments given don’t match any function, we return an error

	return shim.Error("Unknown query action, check the second argument.")

}



func main() {

	// Start the chaincode and make it ready for futures requests

	err := shim.Start(new(HeroesServiceChaincode))

	if err != nil {

		fmt.Printf("Error starting Heroes Service chaincode: %s", err)

	}

}

```



The file is available here: [`chaincode/main.go`](chaincode/main.go)



> **Note**: the chaincode isn't really related to the application, we can have one repository for the app and another for the chaincode. For your information, today the chaincode can also be written in other languages like Java.



For now, the chaincode does nothing extraordinary, just put the key/value `hello`/`world` in the ledger at initialization. In addition, there is one function that we can call by an invoke: `query hello`. This function gets the state of the ledger, i.e. `hello` and give it in response. We will test this in the next step, after successfully install and instantiate the chaincode.



In order to install and instantiate the chaincode, we need to add some code in the application. Edit the [`blockchain/setup.go`](blockchain/setup.go) with those following lines:



```go

package blockchain



import (

	"fmt"

	"github.com/hyperledger/fabric-sdk-go/pkg/client/channel"

	"github.com/hyperledger/fabric-sdk-go/pkg/client/event"

	mspclient "github.com/hyperledger/fabric-sdk-go/pkg/client/msp"

	"github.com/hyperledger/fabric-sdk-go/pkg/client/resmgmt"

	"github.com/hyperledger/fabric-sdk-go/pkg/common/errors/retry"

	"github.com/hyperledger/fabric-sdk-go/pkg/common/providers/msp"

	"github.com/hyperledger/fabric-sdk-go/pkg/core/config"

	packager "github.com/hyperledger/fabric-sdk-go/pkg/fab/ccpackager/gopackager"

	"github.com/hyperledger/fabric-sdk-go/pkg/fabsdk"

	"github.com/hyperledger/fabric-sdk-go/third_party/github.com/hyperledger/fabric/common/cauthdsl"

	"github.com/pkg/errors"

)



// FabricSetup implementation

type FabricSetup struct {

	ConfigFile      string

	OrgID           string

	OrdererID	string

	ChannelID       string

	ChainCodeID     string

	initialized     bool

	ChannelConfig   string

	ChaincodeGoPath string

	ChaincodePath   string

	OrgAdmin        string

	OrgName         string

	UserName        string

	client          *channel.Client

	admin           *resmgmt.Client

	sdk             *fabsdk.FabricSDK

	event           *event.Client

}

[...]



func (setup *FabricSetup) InstallAndInstantiateCC() error {



	// Create the chaincode package that will be sent to the peers

	ccPkg, err := packager.NewCCPackage(setup.ChaincodePath, setup.ChaincodeGoPath)

	if err != nil {

		return errors.WithMessage(err, "failed to create chaincode package")

	}

	fmt.Println("ccPkg created")



	// Install example cc to org peers

	installCCReq := resmgmt.InstallCCRequest{Name: setup.ChainCodeID, Path: setup.ChaincodePath, Version: "0", Package: ccPkg}

	_, err = setup.admin.InstallCC(installCCReq, resmgmt.WithRetry(retry.DefaultResMgmtOpts))

	if err != nil {

		return errors.WithMessage(err, "failed to install chaincode")

	}

	fmt.Println("Chaincode installed")



	// Set up chaincode policy

	ccPolicy := cauthdsl.SignedByAnyMember([]string{"org1.hf.chainhero.io"})



	resp, err := setup.admin.InstantiateCC(setup.ChannelID, resmgmt.InstantiateCCRequest{Name: setup.ChainCodeID, Path: setup.ChaincodeGoPath, Version: "0", Args: [][]byte{[]byte("init")}, Policy: ccPolicy})

	if err != nil || resp.TransactionID == "" {

		return errors.WithMessage(err, "failed to instantiate the chaincode")

	}

	fmt.Println("Chaincode instantiated")



	// Channel client is used to query and execute transactions

	clientContext := setup.sdk.ChannelContext(setup.ChannelID, fabsdk.WithUser(setup.UserName))

	setup.client, err = channel.New(clientContext)

	if err != nil {

		return errors.WithMessage(err, "failed to create new channel client")

	}

	fmt.Println("Channel client created")



	// Creation of the client which will enables access to our channel events

	setup.event, err = event.New(clientContext)

	if err != nil {

		return errors.WithMessage(err, "failed to create new event client")

	}

	fmt.Println("Event client created")



	fmt.Println("Chaincode Installation & Instantiation Successful")

	return nil

}

[...]

```



The file is available here: [`blockchain/setup.go`](blockchain/setup.go)



> **Tips**: take care of the chaincode version, if you want to update your chaincode, increment the version number set at the line 105 of this [`setup.go`](blockchain/setup.go) file. Otherwise the network will keep the same chaincode.



We need now to modify our `main.go` file in order to call our new function



```bash

cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/chainHero/heroes-service && \

vi main.go

```



```go

package main



import (

	"fmt"

	"github.com/chainHero/heroes-service/blockchain"

	"os"

)



func main() {

	// Definition of the Fabric SDK properties

	fSetup := blockchain.FabricSetup{

		// Network parameters

      	OrdererID: "orderer.hf.chainhero.io",

      	

		// Channel parameters

		ChannelID:     "chainhero",

		ChannelConfig: os.Getenv("GOPATH") + "/src/github.com/chainHero/heroes-service/fixtures/artifacts/chainhero.channel.tx",



		// Chaincode parameters

		ChainCodeID:     "heroes-service",

		ChaincodeGoPath: os.Getenv("GOPATH"),

		ChaincodePath:   "github.com/chainHero/heroes-service/chaincode/",

		OrgAdmin:        setup.OrgAdmin,

		OrgName:         "org1",

		ConfigFile:      "config.yaml",



		// User parameters

		UserName: "User1",

	}

[...]

	// Install and instantiate the chaincode

	err = fSetup.InstallAndInstantiateCC()

	if err != nil {

		fmt.Printf("Unable to install and instantiate the chaincode: %v\n", err)

		return

	}

}



```



The file is available here: [`main.go`](main.go)



We can test this, just with the `make` command setup in the previous step:



```bash

cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/chainHero/heroes-service && \

make

```



![Screenshot Chaincode installed and instantiated](docs/images/install-and-instantiate-cc.png)



> **Tips**: the installation and the instantiation don't need to be run at every start of the application. Only when we update the chaincode (and the chaincode version). A solution is to provide an argument when we run the application to tell to do this additional procedure before move on. Since in this tutorial we will clean up the environment every time we don't really care about that.



### f. Query the chaincode



Like a database, the chaincode is plugged and ready to answer. Let's try the `hello` query.



We will put all query functions in a new file named `query.go` in the `blockchain` folder:



```bash

cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/chainHero/heroes-service && \

vi blockchain/query.go

```



```go

package blockchain



import (

	"fmt"

	"github.com/hyperledger/fabric-sdk-go/pkg/client/channel"

)



// QueryHello query the chaincode to get the state of hello

func (setup *FabricSetup) QueryHello() (string, error) {



	// Prepare arguments

	var args []string

	args = append(args, "invoke")

	args = append(args, "query")

	args = append(args, "hello")



	response, err := setup.client.Query(channel.Request{ChaincodeID: setup.ChainCodeID, Fcn: args[0], Args: [][]byte{[]byte(args[1]), []byte(args[2])}})

	if err != nil {

		return "", fmt.Errorf("failed to query: %v", err)

	}



	return string(response.Payload), nil

}

```



The file is available here: [`blockchain/query.go`](blockchain/query.go)



You can add the call to this new function in the [`main.go`](main.go):



```bash

cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/chainHero/heroes-service && \

vi main.go

```



```go

func main() {



[...]



	// Query the chaincode

	response, err := fSetup.QueryHello()

	if err != nil {

		fmt.Printf("Unable to query hello on the chaincode: %v\n", err)

	} else {

		fmt.Printf("Response from the query hello: %s\n", response)

	}

}

```



Let's try:



```bash

cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/chainHero/heroes-service && \

make

```



![Screenshot Query Hello](docs/images/query-hello.png)



### g. Change the ledger state



The next thing to do in order to make a basic tour of the Fabric SDK Go, is to make a request to the chaincode in order to change the ledger state.



First, we will add this ability in the chaincode. Edit the [`chaincode/main.go`](chaincode/main.go) file:



```bash

cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/chainHero/heroes-service && \

vi chaincode/main.go

```



```go

[...]



// Invoke

// All future requests named invoke will arrive here.

func (t *HeroesServiceChaincode) Invoke(stub shim.ChaincodeStubInterface) pb.Response {

	fmt.Println("########### HeroesServiceChaincode Invoke ###########")



	// Get the function and arguments from the request

	function, args := stub.GetFunctionAndParameters()



	// Check whether it is an invoke request

	if function != "invoke" {

		return shim.Error("Unknown function call")

	}



	// Check whether the number of arguments is sufficient

	if len(args) < 1 {

		return shim.Error("The number of arguments is insufficient.")

	}



	// In order to manage multiple type of request, we will check the first argument.

	// Here we have one possible argument: query (every query request will read in the ledger without modification)

	if args[0] == "query" {

		return t.query(stub, args)

	}



	// The update argument will manage all update in the ledger

	if args[0] == "invoke" {

		return t.invoke(stub, args)

	}



	// If the arguments given don’t match any function, we return an error

	return shim.Error("Unknown action, check the first argument")

}



[...]



// invoke

// Every functions that read and write in the ledger will be here

func (t *HeroesServiceChaincode) invoke(stub shim.ChaincodeStubInterface, args []string) pb.Response {

	fmt.Println("########### HeroesServiceChaincode invoke ###########")



	if len(args) < 2 {

		return shim.Error("The number of arguments is insufficient.")

	}



	// Check if the ledger key is "hello" and process if it is the case. Otherwise it returns an error.

	if args[1] == "hello" && len(args) == 3 {



		// Write the new value in the ledger

		err := stub.PutState("hello", []byte(args[2]))

		if err != nil {

			return shim.Error("Failed to update state of hello")

		}



		// Notify listeners that an event "eventInvoke" have been executed (check line 19 in the file invoke.go)

		err = stub.SetEvent("eventInvoke", []byte{})

		if err != nil {

			return shim.Error(err.Error())

		}



		// Return this value in response

		return shim.Success(nil)

	}



	// If the arguments given don’t match any function, we return an error

	return shim.Error("Unknown invoke action, check the second argument.")

}



[...]

```



The file is available here: [`chaincode/main.go`](chaincode/main.go)



From the application side, we add a new function to make the invocation of the chaincode. Add a file named `invoke.go` in the `blockchain` folder:



```bash

cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/chainHero/heroes-service && \

vi blockchain/invoke.go

```



```go

package blockchain



import (

	"fmt"

	"github.com/hyperledger/fabric-sdk-go/pkg/client/channel"

	"time"

)



// InvokeHello

func (setup *FabricSetup) InvokeHello(value string) (string, error) {



	// Prepare arguments

	var args []string

	args = append(args, "invoke")

	args = append(args, "invoke")

	args = append(args, "hello")

	args = append(args, value)



	eventID := "eventInvoke"



	// Add data that will be visible in the proposal, like a description of the invoke request

	transientDataMap := make(map[string][]byte)

	transientDataMap["result"] = []byte("Transient data in hello invoke")



	reg, notifier, err := setup.event.RegisterChaincodeEvent(setup.ChainCodeID, eventID)

	if err != nil {

		return "", err

	}

	defer setup.event.Unregister(reg)



	// Create a request (proposal) and send it

	response, err := setup.client.Execute(channel.Request{ChaincodeID: setup.ChainCodeID, Fcn: args[0], Args: [][]byte{[]byte(args[1]), []byte(args[2]), []byte(args[3])}, TransientMap: transientDataMap})

	if err != nil {

		return "", fmt.Errorf("failed to move funds: %v", err)

	}



	// Wait for the result of the submission

	select {

	case ccEvent := <-notifier:

		fmt.Printf("Received CC event: %s\n", ccEvent)

	case <-time.After(time.Second * 20):

		return "", fmt.Errorf("did NOT receive CC event for eventId(%s)", eventID)

	}



	return string(response.TransactionID), nil

}



```



The file is available here: [`blockchain/invoke.go`](blockchain/invoke.go)



You can then add the call to this function in the [`main.go`](main.go):



```bash

cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/chainHero/heroes-service && \

vi main.go

```



```go

func main() {



[...]



	// Query the chaincode

	response, err := fSetup.QueryHello()

	if err != nil {

		fmt.Printf("Unable to query hello on the chaincode: %v\n", err)

	} else {

		fmt.Printf("Response from the query hello: %s\n", response)

	}



	// Invoke the chaincode

	txId, err := fSetup.InvokeHello("chainHero")

	if err != nil {

		fmt.Printf("Unable to invoke hello on the chaincode: %v\n", err)

	} else {

		fmt.Printf("Successfully invoke hello, transaction ID: %s\n", txId)

	}



	// Query again the chaincode

	response, err = fSetup.QueryHello()

	if err != nil {

		fmt.Printf("Unable to query hello on the chaincode: %v\n", err)

	} else {

		fmt.Printf("Response from the query hello: %s\n", response)

	}

}

```



Let's try:



```bash

cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/chainHero/heroes-service && \

make

```



![Screenshot Invoke Hello](docs/images/invoke-hello.png)



> **Note**: this error message may appear: `endorsement validation failed: Endorser Client Status Code: (3) ENDORSEMENT_MISMATCH. Description: ProposalResponsePayloads do not match`. Since we have two PEERs, the SDK sends its request to the two directly and if it receives a different answer (which is quite possible because it's an asynchronous system) then it returns this error. The best thing to do in these cases is to start over again.



## 6. Make this in a web application



We also can make this usable for any user. The best choice is a web application and we are lucky because the Go language natively provides a web server handling HTTP requests and also templating for HTML.



For now, we have only two different actions: the query and the invocation of the hello value. Let's make two HTML pages for each action. We add a [`web`](web) directory with three other directories:

- [`web/templates`](web/templates): contains all HTML pages (templates)

- [`web/assets`](web/assets): contains all CSS, Javascript, Fonts, Images...

- [`web/controllers`](web/controllers): contains all functions that will render templates



We use the MVC (Model-View-Controller) to make it more readable. The Model will be the blockchain part, the View are templates and Controller are provided by functions in the [`controllers`](web/controllers) directory.



Populate each with the appropriate code (we also added Bootstrap to make the result a little prettier:



- [`web/templates/layout.html`](web/templates/layout.html)

- [`web/templates/home.html`](web/templates/home.html)

- [`web/templates/request.html`](web/templates/request.html)

- [`web/controllers/controller.go`](web/controllers/controller.go)

- [`web/controllers/home.go`](web/controllers/home.go)

- [`web/controllers/request.go`](web/controllers/request.go)

- [`web/app.go`](web/app.go)

- [`web/assets`](web/assets)



And finally, we change the [`main.go`](main.go), in order to use the web interface instead of directly query the blockchain.



- [`main.go`](main.go)



Run the app and go to [localhost:3000/home.html](http://localhost:3000/home.html):



```bash

cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/chainHero/heroes-service ; \

make

```



The `home` page make a query in the blockchain to get the value of the `hello` key and display it.

The `request` page has a form to change the `hello` value. 



![Screenshot Web Request Write](docs/images/web-request-write.png)



After a successful submission the transaction ID is given.



![Screenshot Web Request Success](docs/images/web-request-success.png)



We can see the change by going back to the `home` page.

**It's the end for the first part. A more complex application is coming.**
