fabric-sample-with-kafka

Description

This is a folked repository from https://github.com/hyperledger/fabric-samples/tree/release-1.2/first-network with Kafak orderer type integrated.

Before drilling into this demo, please make sure you are very well understanding the offical Hyperledger Fabric "Build Your First Network" tutorial.

Fabric Version

1.2.0

How to run it?

1. Get binaries

Download the necessary binaries (You may skip it if you have done it before).

Go to root folder,

./get-byfn.sh

如果是大陆的朋友，会遇到下载binaries非常慢的情况，你可以选择用Xunlei去https://nexus.hyperledger.org/content/repositories/releases/org/hyperledger/fabric/hyperledger-fabric/

下载对应的文件放到根目录，如下：

fabric-sample-with-kafka$ tree
.
├── bin
│   ├── configtxgen
│   ├── configtxlator
│   ├── cryptogen
│   ├── discover
│   ├── get-docker-images.sh
│   ├── idemixgen
│   ├── orderer
│   └── peer
├── chaincode
...

或者找个Socks5代理地址，做一次邪恶的curl:

curl -x http://127.0.0.1:8118 -L \
https://nexus.hyperledger.org/content/repositories/releases/org/hyperledger/fabric/hyperledger-fabric/linux-amd64-1.2.0/hyperledger-fabric-linux-amd64-1.2.0.tar.gz | tar xz

具体请自主搜索Socks5 + Fan Qiang（请用中文搜索）

2. Pull docker images

Pull the farbric docker images. (You may skip it if you have done it before).

Go to root folder,

./get-docker-images.sh

3. Run E2E test.

cd first-network

# Start up network
./byfn.sh up

You will see log like:

Starting with channel 'mychannel' and CLI timeout of '10' seconds and CLI delay of '3' seconds
Continue? [Y/n] Y
proceeding ...

4. Bring down the network

./byfn.sh down

What's behind the code change?

1. first-network/configtx.yaml

# Available types are "solo" and "kafka"
OrdererType: kafka

....
Kafka:
    # Brokers: A list of Kafka brokers to which the orderer connects
    # NOTE: Use IP:port notation
    Brokers:
        - kafka0.example.com:9092
        - kafka1.example.com:9092
        - kafka2.example.com:9092
        - kafka3.example.com:9092

2. first-network/docker-compose-kafka.yaml

Be noticed that zookeepers and kafkas are added, be sure they are with byfn network:

networks:
  - byfn

Orderer should be started up after kafkas

  orderer.example.com:
    extends:
      file:   base/docker-compose-base.yaml
      service: orderer.example.com
    container_name: orderer.example.com
    depends_on:
      - kafka0.example.com
      - kafka1.example.com
      - kafka2.example.com
      - kafka3.example.com  
    networks:
      - byfn

3. first-network/base/docker-compose-base.yaml

Add zookeepers & kafka nodes

4. base/kafka-base.yaml & base/order-base.yaml

Check the source code from them.

5. byfn.sh

Update COMPOSE_FILE:

# use this as the default docker-compose yaml definition
COMPOSE_FILE=docker-compose-kafka.yaml

Sleep some time before bring up docker containers:

# Generate the needed certificates, the genesis block and start the network.
function networkUp () {
  ....
  ....
  # now run the end to end script
  sleep 12 # <====== Check this line
  docker exec cli scripts/script.sh $CHANNEL_NAME $CLI_DELAY $LANGUAGE $CLI_TIMEOUT $VERBOSE
  if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then
    echo "ERROR !!!! Test failed"
    exit 1
  fi
}

Issues

The whole project is running well under a real Ubuntu machine. However in a VM host, the project sometimes cannot be running well, keeps getting "Service_Unavailbe" issue. I have not figured out the reason yet.

In terms of the opening issue (will-hu-0#4), there is an effective way to resolve the issue:

I had Service_Unavailble error on the first run but after I increase timeout and delay I can run it successfully. So you might want to update Readme.md with this information.

./byfn.sh up -t 30 -d 10

Extends

This is a very simple project for demonstrating running Kafka as the ordering type, more like a hello world, should NEVER run it on a real production env.

I will post another repository later, same chaincode, but ready for a production deployment (Need 7 VMs, running under swarm mode, you need to increase your memory (Better to have more 12G) to run that project...)
