## Introduction



Using Cello, everyone can easily:



* Build up a Blockchain as a Service (BaaS) platform quickly from scratch.

* Provision customizable Blockchains instantly, e.g., a Hyperledger fabric network v1.0.

* Maintain a pool of running blockchain networks on top of baremetals, Virtual Clouds (e.g., virtual machines, vsphere Clouds), Container clusters (e.g., Docker, Swarm, Kubernetes).

* Check the system status, adjust the chain numbers, scale resources... through dashboards.



A typical usage scenario is illustrated as:



![Typical Scenario](docs/images/scenario.png)



## Quick Start



Environmental preparation:



1. docker [how install](https://get.docker.com)

2. docker compose(`we switched to` [Docker Compose V2](https://docs.docker.com/compose/#compose-v2-and-the-new-docker-compose-command)) [how install](https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/)

3. make `all script for cello service management is written in Makefile`

4. kubernetes (`optional`) [how install](https://kubernetes.io/docs/setup/)

5. node [how install](https://nodejs.org/en/download/)



If environment is prepared, then we can start cello service.



* Set local storage environment variable, e.g. Use current path as storage path



  ```bash

  $  export CELLO_STORAGE_PATH=$(pwd)/cello

  ```



* Start service locally



  ```bash

  $ make local

  ```



* Optional: Build essential images for cello service (the docker hub image auto build haven't ready, in the future you can ignore this step.)



  * Build docker images

    ```bash

    $ make docker

    ```

  * Then run services locally then



    ```bash

    $ make start

    ```



* After service started up, if use docker-compose method, you can see output:



  ```bash

  CONTAINER ID   IMAGE                            COMMAND                  CREATED         STATUS         PORTS                                                                                  NAMES

  ```



* Stop cello service.



  ```bash

  $ make stop

  ```



* Clean all containers



  ```bash

  $ make clean

  ```



* Check available make rules



  ```bash

  $ make help

  ```



* Visit Cello dashboard at `localhost:8081`



* Check [troubleshoot](https://github.com/hyperledger/cello/blob/main/docs/setup/server.md#3-troubleshoot) section if you get any question.



## Main Features



* Manage the lifecycle of blockchains, e.g., create/start/stop/delete/keep health automatically.



* Support customized (e.g., size, consensus) blockchains request, currently we mainly support [Hyperledger fabric](https://github.com/hyperledger/fabric).



* Support native Docker host, swarm or Kubernetes as the worker nodes. More supports on the way.



* Support heterogeneous architecture, e.g., X86, POWER and Z, from bare-metal servers to virtual machines.



* Extend with monitor, log, health and analytics features by employing additional components.



## Documentation, Getting Started and Develop Guideline



For new users, it is highly recommended to read the [documentation](docs/index.md) first.



And feel free to visit the [online documentation](http://cello.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) for more information. You can also run `make doc` to start a local documentation website (Listen at [localhost:8000](http://127.0.0.1:8000).



## Why named Cello?



Can you find anyone better at playing chains? :)



## Incubation Notice



This project is a Hyperledger project in _Incubation_. It was proposed to the community and documented [here](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1E2i5GRqWsIag7KTxjQ_jQdDiWcuikv3KqXeuw7NaceM/edit), and was approved by [Hyperledger TSC at 2017-01-07](https://lists.hyperledger.org/pipermail/hyperledger-tsc/2017-January/000535.html). Information on what _Incubation_ entails can be found in the [Hyperledger Project Lifecycle document](https://goo.gl/4edNRc).



## Inclusive Language Statement



These guiding principles are very important to the maintainers and therefore

we respectfully ask all contributors to abide by them as well:



* Consider that users who will read the docs are from different backgrounds and

  cultures and that they have different preferences.

* Avoid potential offensive terms and, for instance, prefer "allow list and

  deny list" to "white list and black list".

* We believe that we all have a role to play to improve our world, and even if

  writing inclusive documentation might not look like a huge improvement, it's a

  first step in the right direction.

* We suggest to refer to

  [Microsoft bias free writing guidelines](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/style-guide/bias-free-communication)

  and

  [Google inclusive doc writing guide](https://developers.google.com/style/inclusive-documentation)

  as starting points.
