Architecture

In 2.0, FISCO BCOS innovatively proposed a “one-body, two-wing, multi-engine” architecture to achieve horizontal expansion of system throughput and greatly improve performance. It has industry in terms of security, operation and maintenance, ease of use, and scalability, and leading edge.

_images/plane.jpg

The ‘One-body’ refers to the group structure, supports the rapid formation of consortium blockchain, and allows companies to build chains as easily as chat groups. According to business scenarios and business relationships, enterprises can choose different groups to form data sharing and consensus of multiple different ledgers, thereby quickly enriching business scenarios, expanding business scale, and greatly simplifying the deployment and operation and maintenance costs of the chain.

The ‘two wings’ refer to supporting parallel computing models and distributed storage, both of which bring better scalability to the group architecture. The former changes the method of serial execution in the order of transactions in the block, and executes transactions in parallel based on DAG (directed acyclic graph), which greatly improves performance. The latter supports enterprises (nodes) to store data in remote distributed systems, overcoming many limitations of localized data storage.

‘Multi-engine’ is a summary of a series of functional features. For example, pre-compiled contracts can break through the performance bottleneck of EVM and achieve high-performance contracts; the console allows users to quickly master blockchain usage skills.

The above features all focus on solving the pain points of technology and experience, provide more tool support for development, operation and maintenance, governance and supervision, make the system process faster and have higher capacity, and make the application operating environment safer and more stable.

Core module

FISCO BCOS adopts high-throughput scalable multi-group architecture, which can dynamically manage multiple chains and groups to meet the expansion and isolation requirements of multiple business scenarios. Modules include:

  • Consensus mechanism: Pluggable consensus mechanism, supporting PBFT, Raft and rPBFT consensus algorithms, low transaction confirmation delay, high throughput, and ultimate consistency. Among them, PBFT and rPBFT can solve Byzantine problems and have higher security.

  • Storage: The storage of the world state is changed from the original MPT storage structure to distributed storage, avoids the problem of performance degradation caused by the rapid expansion of the world state. Introduces a pluggable storage engine, supports LevelDB, RocksDB, MySQL and other back-end storage, supports data expansion quickly and easily, and isolates calculation from data, reducing the impact of node failure on node data.

  • Network: Support network compression, and implement a good distributed network distribution mechanism based on the idea of load balancing to minimize bandwidth overhead.

Performance

In order to improve system performance, FISCO BCOS optimizes transaction execution in terms of improving transaction execution efficiency and concurrency, so that transaction processing performance can reach more than 10,000 levels.

  • Precompiled contract based on C++: The Precompiled contract written in C++ language is built into the blockchain platform, and the execution efficiency is higher.

  • Transaction execution in parallel: Based on the DAG algorithm to build a transaction execution flow within a block based on the mutually exclusive relationship between transactions, maximizing parallel execution of transactions within a block.

Safety

Considering the high security requirements of the consortium blockchain platform, in addition to the TLS security protocol used for communication between nodes and between nodes and clients, FISCO BCOS also implements a complete set of security solutions:

  • Network access mechanism: Restrict nodes from joining and exiting the alliance chain, and delete the malicious nodes of the specified group from the group, ensuring system security.

  • Black and white list mechanism: Each group can only receive messages from the corresponding group to ensure the isolation of network communication between the groups; the CA blacklist mechanism can disconnect the network connection from the malicious node in time, ensuring the security of the system.

  • Authority management mechanism: Based on distributed storage permission control mechanism, flexible and fine-grained control of permissions for external account deployment contracts and creation, insertion, deletion and update of user tables.

  • Support OSCCA-approved algorithm: Support OSCCA-approved encryption, signature algorithm and OSCCA-approved SSL communication protocol.

  • Disk encryption algorithm: Support the disk encryption algorithm to ensure the confidentiality of the data on the chain.

  • Key management scheme: Based on the disk encryption algorithm, the KeyManager service is used to manage the node key, which is more secure.

  • Homomorphic encryption、Group/Ring signature: Homomorphic encryption and group ring signature interfaces are provided on the chain to meet more business needs.

Operability

In the consortium blockchain platform, the operation and maintenance of the blockchain is crucial. FISCO BCOS provides a complete set of operation and maintenance deployment tools, and introduces contract naming service, data archiving and migration, contract lifecycle management to improve Operation and Management efficiency.

  • Operation and Management deployment tool: Convenient tool for deploying, managing and monitoring multi-institution multi-group consortium blockchain, supporting multiple operations such as expanding nodes and expanding new groups.

  • Contract naming service: Establish a mapping relationship between the contract address to the contract name and the contract version, so that the caller can easily call the contract on the chain by remembering the simple contract name.

  • Data archiving, migration and export functions: Provide data export components, support on-chain data archiving, migration and export, increase the maintainability of on-chain data, and reduce the complexity of operation.

  • Contract lifecycle management: Provide contract life cycle management function on the chain, which is convenient for the chain administrator to manage the contract on the chain.

Ease of use

FISCO BCOS introduces tools such as development and deployment tools, interactive console, blockchain browsers, etc. to improve the ease of use of the system and greatly reduce the time to build chains and deploy applications.

In order to facilitate the rapid development of applications for developers of different languages, FISCO BCOS also supports Java SDK、Node.js SDK、Python SDK and Go SDK

Community development tools

Relying on the huge open source ecosystem, all partners in the community uphold the co-construction concept of “from developers, for developers”, On the bottom platform of FISCO BCOS, independently develop multiple development tools at hand and give back to the community to reduce the difficulty and cost of blockchain application development from different business levels. The following is a partial list, and more institutions or developers are welcome to feedback more useful tools to the community.

  • Blockchain middleware platform WeBASE: For a variety of roles, such as developers and operators, and according to different scenarios, including development, debugging, deployment, audit, etc., to create a wealth of functional components and practical tools, providing a friendly and visual operating environment.

  • Distributed identity solution WeIdentity: A distributed multi-center technology solution based on blockchain, providing a series of basic layer and application interfaces such as distributed entity identity identification and management, trusted data exchange protocol, etc., which can realize the data of entity objects (people or things) Security authorization and exchange.

  • Distributed event-driven architecture WeEvent: Implemented a credible, reliable, and efficient cross-institutional and cross-platform event notification mechanism. Without changing the development language and access protocol of existing commercial systems, realize cross-institution and cross-platform event notification and processing.

  • Cross-chain collaboration solution WeCross: Support cross-chain transaction transactions, meet the atomicity of cross-chain transactions, manage cross-chain transactions, support multi-party collaborative management, and avoid single-point risks.

  • Scene-style privacy protection solution WeDPR: For hidden payment, anonymous voting, anonymous bidding and selective disclosure and other application solutions, provide an immediately available scenario-based privacy protection and efficient solutions to help various industries to explore data-related businesses legally and compliantly.

  • ChainIDE: Provide smart contract cloud development tools to help developers save marginal costs and accelerate the launch of blockchain applications.

To deploy or call HelloWorld contract

HelloWorld contract

HelloWorld contract offers 2 interfaces which are get() and set() and are used to acquire/set contract variety name. The contract content is as below:

pragma solidity ^0.4.24;

contract HelloWorld {
    string name;

    function HelloWorld() {
        name = "Hello, World!";
    }

    function get()constant returns(string) {
        return name;
    }

    function set(string n) {
        name = n;
    }
}

Deploy HelloWorld contract

For quick experience, the console comes with HelloWorld contract and is placed under console folder contracts/solidity/HelloWorld.sol. So, users only have to deploy it using the following command.

# input the following instruction in console, if it is deployed successfully, the contract address will be returned
[group:1]> deploy HelloWorld

Build the first blockchain application

This chapter will introduce a whole process of business application scenario development based on FISCO BCOS blockchain. The introduce includes business scenario analysis, contract design implementation, contract compilation, and blockchain development. Finally, we introduce an application module implementation which is to implement calling access to the contract on blockchain through the Java SDK we provide.

This tutorial requires user to be familiar with the Linux operating environment, has the basic skills of Java development, is able to use the Gradle tool, and is familiar with Solidity syntax.

Through the tutorial, you will learn the following:

  1. How to express the logic of a business scenario in the form of a contract

  2. How to convert Solidity contract into Java class

  3. How to configure Java SDK

  4. How to build an application and integrate Java SDK into application engineering

  5. How to call the contract interface through Java SDK, and to understand its principle

The full project source code for the sample is provided in the tutorial and users can quickly develop their own applications based on it.

Important

Please refer to Installation documentation to complete the construction of the FISCO BCOS blockchain and the download of the console. The operation in this tutorial is assumed to be carried out in the environment of the documentation building.

Sample application requirements

Blockchain is naturally tamper-proof and traceable. These characteristics make it more attractive to the financial sector. This article will provide an easy example of asset management development and ultimately achieve the following functions:

  • Ability to register assets on blockchain

  • Ability to transfer funds from different accounts

  • Ability to check the amount of assets in the account

Contract design and implementation

When developing an application on blockchain, for combining with business requirements, it is first necessary to design the corresponding smart contract to determine the storage data that contract needs, and on this basis, to determine the interface provided by the smart contract. Finally, to specifically implement each interface.

Storage design

FISCO BCOS provides a contract CRUD interface development model, which can create table through contracts, and add, delete, and modify the created table. For this application, we need to design a table t_asset for storage asset management. The table’s fields are as follows:

  • account: primary key, asset account (string type)

  • asset_value: asset amount (uint256 type)

account is the primary key, which is the field that needs to be passed when the t_asset table is operated. The blockchain queries the matching records in the table according to the primary key field. The example of t_asset table is as follow:

account asset_value
Alice 10000
Bob 20000

Interface design

According to the design goals of the business, it is necessary to implement asset registration, transfer, and query functions. The interfaces of the corresponding functions are as follows:

// query the amount of assets
function select(string account) public constant returns(int256, uint256)
// asset registration
function register(string account, uint256 amount) public returns(int256)
// asset transfer
function transfer(string from_asset_account, string to_asset_account, uint256 amount) public returns(int256)

Note: The implementation of the Asset.sol contract requires to introduce a system contract interface file Table.sol provided by FISCO BCOS. The system contract file’s interface is implemented by the underlying FISCO BCOS. When a business contract needs to operate CRUD interface, it is necessary to introduce the interface contract file. Table.sol contract detailed interface reference here.

Contract compiling

In the previous section, we designed the storage and interface of the contract Asset.sol according to business requirements, and implemented them completely. However, Java program cannot directly call Solidity contract. The Solidity contract file needs to be compiled into a Java file first.

The console provides a compilation tool that stores the Asset.sol contract file in the console/contract/solidity directory. Compile with the sol2java.sh script provided in the console directory, as follows:

$ mkdir -p ~/fisco
# download console
$ cd ~/fisco && curl -#LO https://github.com/FISCO-BCOS/console/releases/download/v2.9.2/download_console.sh && bash download_console.sh
# switch to the fisco/console/ directory
$ cd ~/fisco/console/
# compile the contract, specify a Java package name parameter later, you can specify the package name according to the actual project path.
$ ./sol2java.sh -p org.fisco.bcos.asset.contract

After successful operation, the java, abi, and bin directories will be generated in the console/contracts/sdk directory as shown below.

|-- abi # The generated abi directory, which stores the abi file generated by Solidity contract compilation.
|   |-- Asset.abi
|   |-- Table.abi
|-- bin # The generated bin directory, which stores the bin file generated by Solidity contract compilation.
|   |-- Asset.bin
|   |-- Table.bin
|-- contracts # The source code file that stores Solidity contract. Copy the contract that needs to be compiled to this directory.
|   |-- Asset.sol # A copied Asset.sol contract, depends on Table.sol
|   |-- Table.sol # The contract interface file that implements the CRUD operation
|-- java  # Storing compiled package path and Java contract file
|   |-- org
|        |--fisco
|             |--bcos
|                  |--asset
|                       |--contract
|                             |--Asset.java  # Java file generated by the Asset.sol contract
|                             |--Table.java  # Java file generated by the Table.sol contract
|-- sol2java.sh

The org/fisco/bcos/asset/contract/ package path directory is generated in the java directory. The directory contains two files Asset.java and Table.java, where Asset.java is the file required by the Java application to call the Asset.sol contract.

Asset.java’s main interface:

package org.fisco.bcos.asset.contract;

public class Asset extends Contract {
    // Asset.sol contract  transfer interface generation
    public TransactionReceipt transfer(String from_account, String to_account, BigInteger amount);
    // Asset.sol contract  register interface generation
    public TransactionReceipt register(String account, BigInteger asset_value);
    // Asset.sol contract  select interface generation
     public Tuple2<BigInteger, BigInteger> select(String account) throws ContractException;

    // Load the Asset contract address, to generate Asset object
    public static Asset load(String contractAddress, Client client, CryptoKeyPair credential);

    // Deploy Assert.sol contract, to generate Asset object
    public static Asset deploy(Client client, CryptoKeyPair credential) throws ContractException;
}

The load and deploy functions are used to construct the Asset object, and the other interfaces are used to call the interface of the corresponding solidity contract. The detailed use will be introduced below.

SDK configuration

We provide a Java engineering project for development. First, get the Java engineering project:

$ mkdir -p ~/fisco
# get the Java project project archive
$ cd ~/fisco
$ curl -#LO https://github.com/FISCO-BCOS/LargeFiles/raw/master/tools/asset-app.tar.gz
# extract the Java project project asset-app directory
$ tar -zxf asset-app.tar.gz

Note

  • If the asset-app.tar.gz cannot be downloaded for a long time due to network problems, try curl -#LO https://osp-1257653870.cos.ap-guangzhou.myqcloud.com/FISCO-BCOS/FISCO-BCOS/tools/asset-app.tar.gz

The directory structure of the asset-app project is as follows:

|-- build.gradle // gradle configuration file
|-- gradle
|   |-- wrapper
|       |-- gradle-wrapper.jar //  related code implementation for downloading Gradle
|       |-- gradle-wrapper.properties //  Configuration information used by the wrapper, such as the version of gradle

|
|-- tool
    |-- asset_run.sh // project running script

Project introduced Java SDK

The project’s build.gradle file has been introduced to Java SDK and no need to be modified. The introduction method is as follows:

  • You need to add maven remote repository to the build.gradle file:

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
    maven {
        url "http://maven.aliyun.com/nexus/content/groups/public/"
    }
    maven { url "https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots" }
}

  • introduce the Java SDK jar package

compile ('org.fisco-bcos.java-sdk:fisco-bcos-java-sdk:2.7.2')

Certificate and configuration file

  • Blockchain node certificate configuration

Copy the SDK certificate corresponding to the blockchain node

# go to the ~ directory
# copy the node certificate to the project's resource directory
$ cd ~/fisco
$ cp -r nodes/127.0.0.1/sdk/* asset-app/src/test/resources/conf
# if you want to run this app in IDE, copy the certificate to the main resource directory
$ mkdir -p asset-app/src/main/resources/conf
$ cp -r nodes/127.0.0.1/sdk/* asset-app/src/main/resources/conf

  • applicationContext.xml

Note:

If the channel_listen_ip (If the node version is less than v2.3.0, check listen_ip) set in the chain is 127.0.0.1 or 0.0.0.0 and the channel_listen_port is 20200, the applicationContext.xml configuration does not need to be modified. If the configuration of blockchain node is changed, you need to modify applicationContext.xml.

Business development

We’ve covered how to introduce and configure the Java SDK in your own project. This section describes how to invoke a contract through a Java program, as well as an example asset management note. The asset-app project already contains the full source code of the sample, which users can use directly. Now introduces the design and implementation of the core class AssetClient.

AssetClient.java: The deployment and invocation of the contract is implemented by calling Asset.java, The path /src/main/java/org/fisco/bcos/asset/client, the initialization and the calling process are all in this class.

  • initialization

The main function of the initialization code is to construct the Web3j and Credentials’ objects, which are needed to be used when creating the corresponding contract class object (calling the contract class’s deploy or load function).

@SuppressWarnings("resource")
ApplicationContext context =
        new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext("classpath:applicationContext.xml");
bcosSDK = context.getBean(BcosSDK.class);
// init the client that can send requests to the group one
client = bcosSDK.getClient(1);
// create the keyPair
cryptoKeyPair = client.getCryptoSuite().createKeyPair();
client.getCryptoSuite().setCryptoKeyPair(cryptoKeyPair);
logger.debug("create client for group1, account address is " + cryptoKeyPair.getAddress());

  • construct contract class object

Contract objects can be initialized using the deploy or load functions, which are used in different scenarios. The former applies to the initial deployment contract, and the latter is used when the contract has been deployed and the contract address is known.

// deploy contract
Asset asset = Asset.deploy(client, cryptoKeyPair);
// load contract address
Asset asset = Asset.load(contractAddress, client, cryptoKeyPair);

  • interface calling

Use the contract object to call the corresponding interface and handle the returned result.

// select interface calling
 Tuple2<BigInteger, BigInteger> result = asset.select(assetAccount);
// register interface calling
TransactionReceipt receipt = asset.register(assetAccount, amount);
// transfer interface
TransactionReceipt receipt = asset.transfer(fromAssetAccount, toAssetAccount, amount);

Running

So far we have introduced all the processes of the asset management application using the blockchain and implemented the functions. Then we can run the project and test whether the function is normal.

  • compilation

# switch to project directory
$ cd ~/asset-app
# compile project
$ ./gradlew build

After the compilation is successful, the dist directory will be generated under the project root directory. There is an asset_run.sh script in the dist directory to simplify project operation. Now let’s start by verifying the requirements set out in this article.

  • deploy the Asset.sol contract

# enter dist directory
$ cd dist
$ bash asset_run.sh deploy
Deploy Asset successfully, contract address is 0xd09ad04220e40bb8666e885730c8c460091a4775

  • register asset

$ bash asset_run.sh register Alice 100000
Register account successfully => account: Alice, value: 100000
$ bash asset_run.sh register Bob 100000
Register account successfully => account: Bob, value: 100000

  • query asset

$ bash asset_run.sh query Alice
account Alice, value 100000
$ bash asset_run.sh query Bob
account Bob, value 100000

  • transfer asset

$ bash asset_run.sh transfer Alice Bob  50000
Transfer successfully => from_account: Alice, to_account: Bob, amount: 50000
$ bash asset_run.sh query Alice
account Alice, value 50000
$ bash asset_run.sh query Bob
account Bob, value 150000

Summary: So far, we have built an application based on the FISCO BCOS Alliance blockchain through contract development, contract compilation, SDK configuration and business development.

Hardware requirements

Note

  • FISCO BCOS supports x86_ 64 and aarch64 (ARM) architecture CPU

  • Since multiple nodes share network bandwidth, CPU, and memory resources, it is not recommended to configure too much nodes on one machine in order to ensure the stability of service.

The following table is a recommended configuration for single-group and single-node. Node consumes resources in a linear relationship with the number of groups. You can configure the number of nodes reasonably according to actual business requirement and machine resource.

Supported Platforms

  • CentOS 7.2+

  • Ubuntu 18.04

  • macOS 10.14+

  • Kylin OS V10

FISCO BCOS network adopts a CA-oriented access mechanism to support any multi-level certificate structure for ensuring information confidentiality, authentication, integrity, and non-repudiation.

FISCO BCOS uses the x509 protocol certificate format. According to the existing business scenario, a three level certificate structure is adopted by default, and from top to bottom, the three levels are chain certificate, agency certificate, and node certificate respective.

In multi-group architecture, a chain has a chain certificate and a corresponding chain private key, and the chain private key is jointly managed by alliance chain committee. Alliance chain committee can use the agency’s certificate request file agency.csr to issue the agency certificate agency.crt.

Agency private key held by the agency administrator can issue node certificate to the agency’s subordinate nodes.

Node certificate is the credential of node identity and uses this certificate to establish an SSL connection with other nodes for encrypted communication.

sdk certificate is a voucher for sdk communicating with node. Agency generates sdk certificate that allows sdk to do that.

The files’ suffixes of FISCO BCOS node running are described as follows:

Suffix Description
.key private file
.crt certificate file
.csr certificate request file

Role definition

There are four roles in the FISCO BCOS certificate structure, namely the alliance chain committee administrator, agency, node, and SDK.

Alliance chain committee

  • The alliance chain committee manages private key of chain, and issues agency certificate according to agency’s certificate request document agency.csr.

ca.crt chain certificate
ca.key chain private key

When FISCO BCOS performs SSL encrypted communication, only the node with the same chain certificate ca.crt can establish a connection.

Agency

  • Agency has an agency private key that can issue node certificate and SDK certificate.

ca.crt chain certificate
agency.crt agency certificate
agency.csr agency certificate request file
agency.key agency private key
Node/SDK

  • FISCO BCOS nodes include node certificates and private keys for establishing SSL encrypted connection among nodes;

  • SDK includes SDK certificate and private key for establishing SSL encrypted connection with blockchain nodes.

ca.crt #chain certificate
node.crt #node certificate
node.key #node private key
sdk.crt #SDK certificate
sdk.key #SDK private key

Node certificate node.crt includes the node certificate and the agency certificate information. When the node communicates with other nodes/SDKs, it will sign the message with its own private key node.key, and send its own node.crt to nodes/SDKs to verify.

Certificate generation process

FISCO BCOS certificate generation process is as follows. Users can also use the Enterprise Deployment Tool to generate corresponding certificate

Chain certificate generation

  • Alliance chain committee uses openssl command to request chain private key ca.key, and generates chain certificate ca.crt according to ca.key.

Agency certificate generation

  • Agency uses openssl command to generate agency private key agency.key

  • Agency uses private key agency.key to get agency certificate request file agency.csr, and sends agency.csr to alliance chain committee.

  • Alliance chain committee uses chain private key ca.key to generate the agency certificate agency.crt according to the agency certificate request file agency.csr. And send agency certificate agency.crt to corresponding agency.

Node/SDK certificate generation

  • The node generates the private key node.key and the certificate request file node.csr. The agency administrator uses the private key agency.key and the certificate request file node.csr to issue the certificate to the node/SDK.

CA blacklist and whitelist

This documents tells you how to use CA blacklist and whitelist. Read the design of CA blacklist and whitelist for more.

CA blacklist

Use blacklist to reject connection coming from certain NodeIDs.

Configure blacklist

Modify config.ini

[certificate_blacklist]
    ; crl.0 should be nodeid, nodeid's length is 128
    ;crl.0=

Restart the node.

$ bash stop.sh && bash start.sh

Check connections.

$ curl -X POST --data '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"getPeers","params":[1],"id":1}' http://127.0.0.1:8545 |jq

CA whitelist

Use whitelist to reject all connections which NodeID is not belong to whitelist.

Configure whitelist

Modifyconfig.ini，If whitelist is empty, the whitelist is disable and accept all connections.

[certificate_whitelist]
    ; cal.0 should be nodeid, nodeid's length is 128
    cal.0=7718df20f0f7e27fdab97b3d69deebb6e289b07eb7799c7ba92fe2f43d2efb4c1250dd1f11fa5b5ce687c8283d65030aae8680093275640861bc274b1b2874cb
    cal.1=f306eb1066ceb9d46e3b77d2833a1bde2a9899cfc4d0433d64b01d03e79927aa60a40507c5739591b8122ee609cf5636e71b02ce5009f3b8361930ecc3a9abb0

If the node is not started, use start.sh. The whitelist configuration is loaded during starting up. If the node has started, use reload_whitelist.sh . The whitelist configureation is refresh and reject disconnect the node not belongs to whitelist.

# If the node is not started.
$ bash start.sh
# If the node is started.
$ cd scripts
$ bash reload_whitelist.sh
node_127.0.0.1_30300 is not running, use start.sh to start and enable whitelist directlly.

Check connections.

$ curl -X POST --data '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"getPeers","params":[1],"id":1}' http://127.0.0.1:8545 |jq

Usage: Public CA

If we build chain using the certificate coming from CFCA. This chain’s CA is CFCA. This CA is public and can be used to build by other blockchain. Cause different chain can connect each other by using a same CA. In this case, we need to use whitelist to reject the connection coming from other blockchain.

Build chain an enable whitelist

  1. Build chain.

  2. Get every nodes’ NodeID.

  3. Add every nodes’ NodeID into every Node’s whitelist.

  4. Start the node or use reload_whitelist.sh to reconfigure whitelist.

Add node in blockchain and update whitelist

  1. Build a node based on a blockchain.

  2. Get NodeID of new node.

  3. Append new node’s NodeID into every Node’s whitelist.

  4. Copy old node’s whitelist to new node.

  5. Reconfigure whitelist using reload_whitelist.sh.

  6. Start new node.

  7. Add new node into group (addSealer or addObserver)

Examples

Build blockchain

Build a blockchain contains 4 nodes.

$ bash build_chain.sh -l 127.0.0.1:4

Get NodeIDs of these nodes.

$ cat node*/conf/node.nodeid
219b319ba7b2b3a1ecfa7130ea314410a52c537e6e7dda9da46dec492102aa5a43bad81679b6af0cd5b9feb7cfdc0b395cfb50016f56806a2afc7ee81bbb09bf

The NodeIDs are ：

  • node0: 219b319b….

  • node1: 7718df20….

  • node2: f306eb10….

  • node3: 38158ef3….

Start all nodes.

$ cd node/127.0.0.1/
$ bash start_all.sh

Check connections. Use node0 as example. (8545 is the rpc port of node0).

$ curl -X POST --data '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"getPeers","params":[1],"id":1}' http://127.0.0.1:8545 |jq

We can see, node0 has connected with 3 nodes.

}
Use blacklist and whitelist: The priority of blacklist is higher than whitelist

Modify config.ini of node0.

$ vim node0/config.ini

Add node1 into blacklist and add node1, node2 into whitelist. Both blacklist and whitelist has configured node1.

[certificate_blacklist]
    ; crl.0 should be nodeid, nodeid's length is 128
    crl.0=7718df20f0f7e27fdab97b3d69deebb6e289b07eb7799c7ba92fe2f43d2efb4c1250dd1f11fa5b5ce687c8283d65030aae8680093275640861bc274b1b2874cb

Configuration files and configuration items

FISCO BCOS supports multiple ledger. Each chain includes multiple unique ledgers, whose data among them are isolated from each other. And the transaction processing among groups are also isolated. Each node includes a main configuration config.ini and multiple ledger configurations group.group_id.genesis, group.group_id.ini.

  • config.ini: The main configuration file, mainly configures with RPC, P2P, SSL certificate, ledger configuration file path, compatibility and other information.

  • group.group_id.genesis：group configurations file. All nodes in the group are consistent. After node launches, you cannot manually change the configuration including items like group consensus algorithm, storage type, and maximum gas limit, etc.

  • group.group_id.ini：group variable configuration file, including the transaction pool size, etc.. All configuration changes are effective after node restarts.

Main configuration file config.ini

config.ini uses ini format. It mainly includes the configuration items like ** rpc, p2p, group, secure and log **.

Important

  • The public IP addresses of the cloud host are virtual IP addresses. If listen_ip/jsonrpc_listen_ip/channel_listen_ip is filled in external network IP address, the binding fails. You must fill in 0.0.0.0.

  • RPC/P2P/Channel listening port must be in the range of 1024-65535 and cannot conflict with other application listening ports on the machine.

  • In order to facilitate development and experience, the reference configuration of listen_ip/channel_listen_ip is 0.0.0.0. For security reasons, please modify it to a safe listening address according to the actual business network situation, such as the internal IP or a specific external IP

Configure RPC

  • channel_listen_ip: Channel listening IP, to facilitate node and SDK cross-machine deployment, the default setting is 0.0.0.0;

  • jsonrpc_listen_ip：RPC listening IP, security considerations, the default setting is 127.0.0.1, if there is an external network access requirement, please monitor node external network IP or 0.0.0.0;

  • channel_listen_port: Channel port, is corresponding to channel_listen_port in [Java SDK]](../sdk/sdk.html#id2) configuration;

  • jsonrpc_listen_port: JSON-RPC port.

Note

For security and ease of use consideration, the latest configuration of v2.3.0 version splits listen_ip into jsonrpc_listen_ip and channel_listen_ip, but still retains the parsing function of listen_ip:

  • Include only listen_ip in the configuration: The listening IPs of both RPC and Channel are configured listen_ip

  • The configuration also contains listen_ip, channel_listen_ip, or jsonrpc_listen_ip: Priority is given to channel_listen_ip and jsonrpc_listen_ip. Configuration items that are not configured are replaced with the value of listen_ip

  • Starting from v2.6.0, RPC module support IPV6.

RPC configuration example is as follows:

# ipv4
[rpc]
    channel_listen_ip=0.0.0.0
    jsonrpc_listen_ip=127.0.0.1
    channel_listen_port=30301
    jsonrpc_listen_port=30302

# ipv6
[rpc]
    channel_listen_ip=::1
    jsonrpc_listen_ip=::1
    channel_listen_port=30301
    jsonrpc_listen_port=30302
Configure P2P

Note

  • In order to facilitate development and experience, the reference configuration of listen_ip is 0.0.0.0. For security reasons, please modify it to a safe listening address according to the actual business network situation, such as the internal IP or a specific external IP.

  • Starting from v2.6.0, P2P module support IPV6.

The current version of FISCO BCOS must be configured with IP and Port of the connection node in the config.ini configuration. The P2P related configurations include:

  • listen_ip: P2P listens for IP, to set 0.0.0.0 by default.

  • listen_port: Node P2P listening port.

  • node.*: All nodes’ IP:Port or DomainName:Port which need to be connected to node. This option supports domain names, but suggests users who need to use it manually compile source code.

  • enable_compress: Enable network compression configuration option. Configuring to true, indicates that network compression is enabled. Configuring to false, indicates that network compression is disabled. For details on network compression, please refer to [here](../design/features/network_compress .md).

P2P configuration example is as follows:

# ipv4
[p2p]
    listen_ip=0.0.0.0
    listen_port=30300
    node.0=127.0.0.1:30300
    node.1=127.0.0.1:30304
    node.2=127.0.0.1:30308
    node.3=127.0.0.1:30312

# ipv6
[p2p]
    listen_ip=::1
    listen_port=30300
    node.0=[::1]:30300
    node.1=[::1]:30304
    node.2=[::1]:30308
    node.3=[::1]:30312
Configure ledger file path

[group]To configure all group configuration paths which this node belongs:

  • group_data_path: Group data storage path.

  • group_config_path: Group configuration file path.

Node launches group according to all .genesis suffix files in the group_config_path path.

[group]
    ; All group data is placed in the node's data subdirectory
    group_data_path=data/
    ; Program automatically loads all .genesis files in the path
    group_config_path=conf/
Configure certificate information

For security reasons, communication among FISCO BCOS nodes uses SSL encrypted communication.[network_security] configure to SSL connection certificate information:

  • data_path：Directory where the certificate and private key file are located.

  • key: The data_path path that node private key relative to.

  • cert: The data_path path that certificate node.crt relative to.

  • ca_cert: ca certificate file path.

  • ca_path: ca certificate folder, required for multiple ca.

  • check_cert_issuer：sets whether the SDK can only connect the nodes with same organization, which is turned on by default（check_cert_issuer=true）.

[network_security]
    data_path=conf/
    key=node.key
    cert=node.crt
    ca_cert=ca.crt
    ;ca_path=
Configure blacklist

For preventing vice, FISCO BCOS allows nodes to configure untrusted node blacklist to reject establishing connections with these blacklist nodes. To configure blacklist through [crl]:

crl.idx: Blacklist node’s Node ID, can get from node.nodeid file; idx is index of the blacklist node.

For details of the blacklist, refer to [CA Blacklist].(./certificate_list.md)

Blacklist configuration example is as follows:

; certificate blacklist
[crl]
    crl.0=4d9752efbb1de1253d1d463a934d34230398e787b3112805728525ed5b9d2ba29e4ad92c6fcde5156ede8baa5aca372a209f94dc8f283c8a4fa63e
3787c338a4
Configure log information

FISCO BCOS supports boostlog. The log configuration is mainly located in the [log] configuration item of config.ini.

Log common configuration items

FISCO BCOS general log configuration items are as follows:

  • enable: Enable/disable log. Set to true to enable log; set to false to disable log. set to true by default. For performance test, to set this option to false to reduce the impact of print log on test results

  • log_path:log file patch.

  • level: log level, currently includes 5 levels which are trace、debug、info、warning、error.After setting a certain log level, the log file will be entered with a log equal to or larger than this level.The log level is sorted from large to small by error > warning > info > debug > trace.

  • max_log_file_size：Maximum size per log file, ** unit of measure is bytes, default is 200MB**

  • flush：boostlog enables log auto-refresh by default. To improves system performance, it is recommended to set this value to false.

boostlog configuration example is as follows:

[log]
    ; whether to enable log, set to true by default
    enable=true
    log_path=./log
    level=info
    ; Maximum size per log file, default is 200MB
    max_log_file_size=200
    flush=true
Statistics log configuration items

Considering that the real-time monitoring system resource usage is very important in the actual production system, FISCO BCOS v2.4.0 introduced statistical logs, and the statistical log configuration items are located in config.ini.

Statistics log enable/disable configuration item

Considering that not all scenarios require network traffic and Gas statistics functions, FISCO BCOS provides the enable_statistic option inconfig.ini to turn on and off the function, which is turned off by default.

  • log.enable_statistic is set to true to enable network traffic and gas statistics

  • log.enable_statistic is set to false to disable network traffic and gas statistics

The configuration example is as follows:

[log]
    ; enable/disable the statistics function
    enable_statistic=false
Network statistics log output interval configuration item

Due to the periodic output of network statistics logs, log.stat_flush_interval is introduced to control the statistics interval and log output frequency, the unit is seconds, and the default is 60s. The configuration example is as follows:

[log]
    ; network statistics interval, unit is second, default is 60s
    stat_flush_interval=60
Configure chain attributes

Users can configure attributes of chain through [chain] in config.ini. The tool will be automatically generated when changing the configuration item to build chain, so users do not need to change it.

  • id, the ID of chain, 1 by default;

  • sm_crypto，in 2.5.0 and follow-up versions of FISCO BCOS, node can be launched in SM-Crypto mode or not through this configuration. true means SM-Crypto mode will be used and false means opposite, false by default；

  • sm_crypto_channel，in 2.5.0 and follow-up versions of FISCO BCOS, connection between SDK and node can be established via SM-SSL. This configuration is used to indicate wheather to use this feature, false by default。

Configure node compatibility

All versions of FISCO BCOS 2.0+ are forward compatible. You can configure the compatibility of node through [compatibility] in config.ini. The tool will be automatically generated when changing the configuration item to build chain, so users do not need to change it.

  • supported_version：The version of the current node running

Important

  • view the latest version of FISCO BCOS currently supports through the command `./fisco-bcos –version | grep “Version” `

  • In the blockchain node configuration generated by build_chain.sh, supported_version is configured to the current latest version of FISCO BCOS

  • When upgrading an old node to a new node, directly replace the old FISCO BCOS binary with the latest FISCO BCOS binary, don’t modify supported_version

FISCO BCOS 2.2.0 node’s [compatibility] configuration is as follows:

[compatibility]
    supported_version=2.2.0
Optional configuration: Disk encryption

In order to protect node data, FISCO BCOS introduces Disk Encryption to ensure confidentiality. Disk Encryption Operation Manual Reference.

storage_security in config.ini is used to configure disk encryption. It mainly includes (for the operation of the disk encryption, please refer to Operation Manual):

  • enable：whether to launch disk encryption, not to launch by default;

  • key_manager_ip：Key Managerservice’s deployment IP;

  • key_manager_port：Key Managerservice’s listening port；

  • cipher_data_key: ciphertext of node data encryption key. For cipher_data_key generation, refer to disk encryption operation manual.

disk encryption configuration example is as follows:

[storage_security]
enable=true
key_manager_ip=127.0.0.1
key_manager_port=8150
cipher_data_key=ed157f4588b86d61a2e1745efe71e6ea
Optional configuration: flow control

In order to realize the flexible service of the blockchain system and prevent the mutual influence of resources between multiple groups, FISCO BCOS v2.5.0 introduces a flow control function, mainly including the request rate limit from SDK to nodes and the flow limit between nodes. Under [flow_control] of config.ini, it is disabled by default. For detailed design of flow control, please refer to here

SDK request rate limit configuration

The SDK request rate limit is located in the configuration item [flow_control].limit_req, which is used to limit the maximum number of requests from the SDK to the node per second. When the request to the node per second exceeds the value of the configuration item, the request will be rejected. The rate limit is disabled by default. To enable this function, you need to remove the ; in front of the limit_req configuration item. Enable the SDK request rate limit and design a node that can accept 2000 SDK requests per second as follows:

[flow_control]
    ; restrict QPS of the node
    limit_req=2000
Inter-node traffic limit configuration

In order to prevent block sync and AMOP message transmission from occupying too much network traffic and affecting the transmission of message packets of the consensus module, FISCO BCOS v2.5.0 introduces the function of inter-node traffic restriction. This configuration item is used to configure the average bandwidth of the node, but does not limit the flow of block consensus and transaction sync. When the average bandwidth of the node exceeds the configured value, block sync and AMOP message transmission will be paused.

  • [flow_control].outgoing_bandwidth_limit: Node output bandwidth limit, the unit is Mbit/s, When the node output bandwidth exceeds this value, block sync will be paused, and the[AMOP](./ amop_protocol.md) request sent by the client will be rejected, but It will not limit the traffic of block consensus and transaction broadcast. This configuration item is disabled by default. To enable the traffic limit function, please remove the ; in front of the outgoing_bandwidth_limit configuration item.

The configuration example of enable the outgoing bandwidth traffic limit of the node and setting it to 5MBit/s is as follows:

[flow_control]
    ; Mb, can be a decimal
    ; when the outgoing bandwidth exceeds the limit, the block synchronization operation will not proceed
    outgoing_bandwidth_limit=5

Group system configuration instruction

Each group has unique separate configuration file, which can be divided into group system configuration and group variable configuration according to whether it can be changed after launch. group system configuration is generally located in the .genesis suffix configuration file in node’s conf directory.

For example:group1 system configuration generally names as group.1.genesis. Group system configuration mainly includes the related configuration of group ID、consensus, storage and gas.

Important

When configuring the system configuration, you need to pay attention to:

  • configuration group must be consistent: group system configuration is used to generate the genesis block (block 0), so the configurations of all nodes in the group must be consistent.

  • node cannot be modified after launching ：system configuration has been written to the system table as genesis block, so it cannot be modified after chain initializes.

  • After chain is initialized, even if genesis configuration is modified, new configuration will not take effect, and system still uses the genesis configuration when initializing the chain.

  • Since genesis configuration requires all nodes in the group to be consistent, it is recommended to use build_chain to generate the configuration.

Group configuration

[group]configures group ID. Node initializes the group according to the group ID.

group2’s configuration example is as follows:

[group]
id=2
Consensus configuration

[consensus] involves consensus-related configuration, including:

  • consensus_type：consensus algorithm type, currently supports PBFT, Raft and rPBFT. To use PBFT by default;

  • max_trans_num：a maximum number of transactions that can be packed in a block. The default is 1000. After the chain is initialized, the parameter can be dynamically adjusted through Console;

  • consensus_timeout: In the PBFT consensus process, the timeout period of each block execution, the default is 3s, the unit is seconds, the parameter can be dynamically adjusted through Console;

  • node.idx：consensus node list, has configured with the [Node ID] of the participating consensus nodes. The Node ID can be obtained by the ${data_path}/node.nodeid file (where ${data_path} can be obtained by the configuration item [secure].data_path of the main configuration config.ini)

FISCO BCOS v2.3.0 introduced the rPBFT consensus algorithm, The rPBFT related configuration is as follows:

  • epoch_sealer_num：The number of nodes participating in the consensus is selected in a consensus period. The default is the total number of all consensus nodes. After the chain is initialized, this parameter can be dynamically adjusted through [Console] (../console/console.html#setsystemconfigbykey)

  • epoch_block_num：The number of blocks generated in a consensus period, the default is 1000, which can be dynamically adjusted through [Console] (../console/console.html#setsystemconfigbykey)

Note

rPBFT configuration does not take effect on other consensus algorithms

State mode configuration

state is used to store blockchain status information. It locates in the genesis file [state]:

  • type: state type, currently supports storage state and MPT state, defaults to Storage state. storage state storing the transaction execution result in the system table, which is more efficient. MPT state storing the transaction execution result in the MPT tree, which is inefficient but contains complete historical information.

Important

The storage state is recommended.

[state]
    type=storage
Gas configuration

FISCO BCOS is compatible with Ethereum virtual machine (EVM). In order to prevent DOS from attacking EVM, EVM introduces the concept of gas when executing transactions, which is used to measure the computing and storage resources consumed during the execution of smart contracts. The measure includes the maximum gas limit of transaction and block. If the gas consumed by the transaction or block execution exceeds the gas limit, the transaction or block is discarded.

FISCO BCOS is alliance chain that simplifies gas design. It retains only maximum gas limit of transaction, and maximum gas of block is constrained together by consensus configuration max_trans_num and transaction maximum gas limit.

FISCO BCOS configures maximum gas limit of the transaction through genesis [tx].gas_limit. The default value is 300000000. After chain is initialized, the gas limit can be dynamically adjusted through the console command.

[tx]
    gas_limit=300000000
EVM configuration

FISCO BCOS v2.4.0 introduces the Free Storage Gas measurement mode to increase the proportion of CPU and memory in Gas consumption. For details, please refer to [here] (../design/virtual_machine/gas.html#evm-gas) The opening and closing of Free Storage Gas mode is controlled by the evm.enable_free_storage configuration item in the genesis file.

Note

  • evm.enable_free_storage is supported in v2.4.0. This feature is not supported when supported_version is less than v2.4.0, or the old chain directly replaces binary upgrade

  • When the chain is initialized, evm.enable_free_storage is written to the genesis block; after the chain is initialized, the node reads the evm.enable_free_storage configuration item from the genesis block, manually modifying the genesis configuration item will not take effect

  • evm.enable_free_storage is set to false by default

  • evm.enable_free_storage is set to true: enable Free Storage Gas mode

  • evm.enable_free_storage is set to false: turn off Free Storage Gas mode

The configuration example is as follows:

[evm]
    enable_free_storage=false

Ledger variable configuration instruction

Variable configuration of the ledger is located in the file of the .ini suffix in the node conf directory.

For example: group1 variable configuration is generally named group.1.ini. Variable configuration mainly includes transaction pool size, PBFT consensus message forwarding TTL, PBFT consensus packing time setting, PBFT transaction packaging dynamic adjustment setting, parallel transaction settings, etc..

Configure storage

Storage currently supports three modes: RocksDB, MySQL, and Scalable. Users can choose the DB to use according to their needs. RocksDB has the highest performance. MySQL supports users to use MySQL database for viewing data. Since the RC3 version, we have used RocksDB instead of LevelDB for better performance, but still supports LevelDB.

Note

  • Starting from v2.3.0, in order to facilitate chain maintenance, it is recommended to use MySQL storage mode instead of External storage mode

Public configuration item

Important

If you want to use MySQL, please set type to MySQL.

  • type: The stored DB type, which supports RocksDB, MySQL and External. When the DB type is RocksDB, all the data of blockchain system is stored in the RocksDB local database; when the type is MySQL, the node accesses MySQL database according to the configuration. All data of blockchain system is stored in MySQL database. For accessing MySQL database, to configure the amdb-proxy. Please refer to here for the amdb-proxy configuration.

  • max_capacity: configures the space size of the node that is allowed to use for memory caching.

  • max_forward_block: configures the space size of the node that allowed to use for memory block. When the blocks exceeds this value, the node stops the consensus and waits for the blocks to be written to database.

  • binary_log: default is false. when set to true, enable binary log, and then disable the wal of RocksDB.

  • cached_storage: controls whether to use the cache. The default is true.

The following is an example of the configuration of [storage]:
[storage]
    ; storage db type, RocksDB / MySQL / external, RocksDB is recommended
    type=RocksDB
    max_capacity=256
    max_forward_block=10
    ; only for external
    max_retry=100
    topic=DB
    ; only for MySQL
    db_ip=127.0.0.1
    db_port=3306
    db_username=
    db_passwd=
    db_name=
Transaction pool configuration

FISCO BCOS opens the transaction pool capacity configuration to users. Users can dynamically adjust the transaction pool according to their business size requirements, stability requirements, and node hardware configuration.

Transaction pool capacity limit

In order to prevent excessive accumulating transactions occupy too much memory, FISCO BCOS provides two configuration items [tx_pool].limit and[tx_pool].memory_limit to limit the transaction pool capacity:

  • [tx_pool].limit: limit the maximum number of transactions that can be accommodated in the transaction pool. The default is 150000, after the limit is exceeded, transactions sent by the client to the node will be rejected

  • [tx_pool].memory_limit: The memory size limit of transactions in the transaction pool, the default is 512MB, after this limit is exceeded, the transaction sent by the client to the node will be rejected

The transaction pool capacity is configured as follows:

[tx_pool]
    limit=150000
    ; transaction pool memory size limit, MB
    memory_limit=512
Transaction pool push thread number configuration

In order to improve the performance of the blockchain system, FISCO BCOS uses the asynchronous push logic of transaction receipts. When the transaction is chained, the push thread in the transaction pool will asynchronously push the receipt of the transaction on the chain to the client. More system resources, and in order to prevent too few push threads from affecting the timeliness of transaction push, FISCO BCOS provides [tx_pool].notify_worker_num configuration item to configure the number of asynchronous push threads:

  • [tx_pool].notify_worker_num: Number of asynchronous push threads, the default is 2, it is recommended that the value does not exceed 8

The number of push threads in the transaction pool is configured as follows:

[tx_pool]
    ; number of threads responsible for transaction notification,
    ; default is 2, not recommended for more than 8
    notify_worker_num=2
Transaction Expiration Configuration

In order to prevent the txs from pending in the transaction pool for too long when the system is abnormal, FISCO BCOS 2.9.0 introduces the transaction expiration time configuration txs_expiration_time. When the txs pending in the transaction pool exceeds txs_expiration_time, the transaction pool will actively clear the transaction.

  • [tx_pool].txs_expiration_time: Transaction expiration time, the default is 10 minutes, the value is required to be not less than the consensus_timeout.

An example of txs_expiration_time configuration is as follows：

    ; transaction expiration time, in seconds, default is 10 minute
    txs_expiration_time=600
PBFT consensus configurations

In order to improve the performance, availability, and network efficiency of the PBFT algorithm, FISCO BCOS has made a series of optimizations for block packaging algorithms and networks, including PBFT block packaging dynamic adjustment strategies, PBFT message forwarding optimization, and PBFT Prepare packet structure optimization.

Note

Due to protocol and algorithm consistency requirements, it is recommended to ensure that the PBFT consensus configuration of all nodes is consistent.

PBFT consensus message broadcast configuration

In order to ensure the maximum network fault tolerance of the consensus process, each consensus node broadcasts the message to other nodes after receiving a valid consensus message. In smooth network environment, the consensus message forwarding mechanism will waste additional network bandwidth, so the ttl is introduced in the group variable configuration item to control the maximum number of message forwarding. The maximum number of message forwarding is ttl-1, and the configuration item is valid only for PBFT.

Setting consensus message to be forwarded at most once configuration example is as follows:

; the ttl for broadcasting pbft message
[consensus]
ttl=2
PBFT consensus packing time configuration

The PBFT module packing too fast causes only 1 to 2 transactions to be pack in some blocks. For avoiding wasting storage space, FISCO BCOS v2.0.0-rc2 introduces min_block_generation_time configuration item in the group variable configuration group.group_id.ini’s [consensus] to manager the minimum time for PBFT consensus packing. That is, when the consensus node packing time exceeds min_block_generation_time and the number of packaged transactions is greater than 0, the consensus process will start and handle the new block generated by the package.

Important

  • min_block_generation_time is 500ms by default

  • The longest packing time of consensus node is 1000ms. If the time is exceeded 1000ms and the number of transactions packed in the new block is still 0, the consensus module will enter the logic of empty block generation, and the empty block will not be written to disk;

  • min_block_generation_time cannot exceed the time of empty block generation which is 1000ms. If the set value exceeds 1000ms, the system defaults min_block_generation_time to be 500ms.

[consensus]
;min block generation time(ms), the max block generation time is 1000 ms
min_block_generation_time=500
PBFT transaction package dynamic adjustment

For the impact causing by CPU loading and network latency on system processing power, PBFT provides an algorithm that dynamically adjusts the maximum number of transactions that can be packed in a block. The algorithm dynamically can adjust the maximum number of transactions according to the state of historical transaction processing. The algorithm is turned on by default, and it can be turned off by changing the [consensus].enable_dynamic_block_size configuration item of the variable configuration group.group_id.ini to false. At this time, the maximum number of transactions in the block is the [consensus].max_trans_num of group.group_id.genesis.

The configuration of closing the dynamic adjustment algorithm for the block package transaction number is as follows:

[consensus]
    enable_dynamic_block_size=false
PBFT message forwarding configuration

FISCO BCOS v2.2.0 optimizes the PBFT message forwarding mechanism to ensure that PBFT message packets can reach each consensus node as much as possible in the network disconnection scenario, while reducing redundant PBFT message packets in the network. For PBFT message forwarding optimization strategies. You can use the [consensus].enable_ttl_optimization configuration item of group.group_id.ini to enable or disable the PBFT message forwarding optimization strategy.

  • [consensus].enable_ttl_optimization is configured as true: Enable PBFT message forwarding optimization strategy

  • [consensus].enable_ttl_optimization is configured as false: Disable PBFT message forwarding optimization strategy

  • When supported_version is not less than v2.2.0, the PBFT message forwarding strategy is enabled by default; whensupported_version is less than v2.2.0, the PBFT message forwarding optimization strategy is disabled by default

Disable PBFT message forwarding optimization strategy configuration as follows：

[consensus]
    enable_ttl_optimization=false
PBFT Prepare package structure optimization

Considering that in the PBFT algorithm, transactions in blocks in the Prepare packet broadcast by the Leader have a high probability of hitting in the transaction pools of other consensus nodes. In order to save network bandwidth, FISCO BCOS v2.2.0 has optimized the Prepare packet structure: The block only contains a list of transaction hashes. After other consensus nodes receive the Prepare packet, they will first obtain the hit transaction from the local transaction pool and request the missing transaction from Leader. This policy can be enabled or disabled through the [consensus].enable_prepare_with_txsHash configuration item of group.group_id.ini.

  • [consensus].enable_prepare_with_txsHash is configured as true：Enable the structure optimization of the Prepare package. The blocks in the Prepare message package only contain the transaction hash list.

  • [consensus].enable_prepare_with_txsHash is configured as false：Disable the structure optimization of the Prepare packet, the block in the Prepare message packet contains the full amount of transactions

  • When supported_version is not less than v2.2.0,[consensus].enable_prepare_with_txsHash defaults to true; when supported_version is less than v2.2.0, [consensus].enable_prepare_with_txsHash defaults to false

Note

Due to protocol consistency requirements, all nodes must ensure enable_prepare_with_txsHash configuration is consistent

Disable the PBFT Prepare package structure optimization configuration as follows:

[consensus]
    enable_prepare_with_txsHash=false
rPBFT consensus configurations

FISCO BCOS v2.3.0 introduces the rPBFT consensus algorithm. In order to ensure the load balance of the network traffic of the rPBFT algorithm, the tree broadcast policy of the Prepare packet is introduced, Corresponding fault tolerance scheme.

  • [consensus].broadcast_prepare_by_tree: Enable/disable switch for Prepare tree broadcast policy. Set to true to enable the tree broadcast policy for Prepare packets. Set tofalse to disable the tree broadcast policy for Prepare packets. Default is true.

The following is the fault-tolerant configuration after the Prepare packet tree broadcast policy is enabled:

  • [consensus].prepare_status_broadcast_percent: The percentage of the randomly selected nodes that receive the prepare status, The value ranges from 25 to 100, and the default is 33.

  • [consensus].max_request_prepare_waitTime：When the node’s Prepare cache is missing, the longest delay for waiting for the parent node to send a Prepare packet is 100ms by default. After this delay, the node will request from other nodes that own the Prepare packet.

The following is the configuration of load balancing after enabling Prepare package structure optimization in rPBFT mode:

  • [consensus].max_request_missedTxs_waitTime: After the transaction in the node’s Prepare packet is missing, the longest delay for waiting for the parent node or other non-leader node to synchronize the Prepare packet status is 100ms by default, if the packet status is synchronized to the parent node or non-leader node within the waiting delay window, a random node will be selected to request the missing transaction, otherwise, directly request the missing transaction from the leader.

rPBFT default configuration is as follows:

; Tree broadcast policy for Prepare packets is enabled by default
broadcast_prepare_by_tree=true
; Only effective when the prepare package tree broadcast is enabled
; Each node randomly selects 33% consensus nodes to synchronize the prepare packet status
prepare_status_broadcast_percent=33
; Under the prepare package tree broadcast strategy,
; the node missing the prepare package takes more than 100ms and
; does not wait for the prepare package forwarded by the parent node
; to request the missing prepare package from other nodes.
max_request_prepare_waitTime=100
; The maximum delay for a node to wait for a parent node
;or other non-leader node to synchronize a prepare packet is 100ms
max_request_missedTxs_waitTime=100
Sync configurations

The synchronization module is a “big network consumer”, including block synchronization and transaction synchronization. FISCO BCOS optimizes the efficiency of the consensus module network using the principle of load balancing.

Note

Due to protocol consistency requirements, it is recommended to ensure that the PBFT consensus configuration of all nodes is consistent.

Block synchronization optimization configuration

In order to enhance the scalability of the blockchain system under the condition of limited network bandwidth, FISCO BCOS v2.2.0 has optimized block synchronization. For detailed optimization strategies. You can use the [sync].sync_block_by_tree of group.group_id.ini to enable or disable the block synchronization optimization strategy.

  • [sync].sync_block_by_tree is configured as true:Enable block synchronization optimization strategy

  • [sync].sync_block_by_tree is configured as false: Turn off block synchronization optimization strategy

  • When supported_version is not less than v2.2.0, [sync].sync_block_by_tree defaults to true; when supported_version is less than v2.2.0,[sync].sync_block_by_tree defaults to false

In addition, in order to ensure the robustness of tree topology block synchronization, FISCO BCOS v2.2.0 also introduced the gossip protocol to periodically synchronize the block status. The related configuration items of the gossip protocol are located in [sync] of group.group_id.ini The details are as follows:

  • gossip_interval_ms：gossip protocol synchronization block status period, default is 1000ms

  • gossip_peers_number：Each time a node synchronizes the block status, the number of randomly selected neighbor nodes, the default is 3

Note

  1. gossip protocol configuration item, only effective when block tree broadcast optimization is enabled

  2. Must ensure that all nodes sync_block_by_tree configuration is consistent

The optimized configuration of enabling block tree broadcasting is as follows：

[sync]
    ; Block tree synchronization strategy is enabled by default
    sync_block_by_tree=true
    ; Every node synchronizes the latest block status every 1000ms
    gossip_interval_ms=1000
    ; Each node randomly selects 3 neighbor nodes at a time to synchronize the latest block status
    gossip_peers_number=3
Optimal configuration of transaction tree broadcast

In order to reduce the peak outbound bandwidth of SDK directly connected nodes and improve the scalability of the blockchain system, FISCO BCOS v2.2.0 introduced a transaction tree broadcast optimization strategy. You can use the [sync].send_txs_by_tree of group.group_id.ini to enable or disable the transaction tree broadcast strategy. The detailed configuration is as follows:

  • [sync].sync_block_by_tree：Set to true to enable transaction tree broadcast strategy; set tofalse to disable transaction tree broadcast strategy

The configuration of the disabled transaction tree broadcast policy is as follows：

[sync]
    ; Transaction tree broadcast strategy is enabled by default
    send_txs_by_tree=false

Note

  • Due to protocol consistency requirements, all nodes must ensure that the tree broadcast switch send_txs_by_tree is configured consistently

  • When supported_version is not less than v2.2.0, the transaction tree broadcast optimization strategy is turned on by default; when supported_version is less than v2.2.0, the transaction tree broadcast strategy is turned off by default

Optimized transaction forwarding configuration

In order to reduce the traffic overhead caused by transaction forwarding, FISCO BCOS v2.2.0 introduced a state packet-based transaction forwarding strategy. You can configure the maximum number of forwarding nodes for the transaction status through [sync].txs_max_gossip_peers_num of group.group_id.ini.

Note

To ensure that transactions reach each node and minimize the traffic overhead introduced by transaction status forwarding, it is not recommended to set txs_max_gossip_peers_num too small or too large, just use the default configuration

The maximum number of nodes for transaction status forwarding is configured as follows:

[sync]
    ; Each node randomly selects up to 5 neighbor nodes to synchronize the latest transaction status.
    txs_max_gossip_peers_num=5
Parallel transaction configuration

FISCO BCOS supports execution of transactions in parallel. Turning on the transaction parallel execution switch to enable for improving throughput. Execution of the transaction in parallel is only effective in the storage state mode.

Note

In order to simplify system configuration, v2.3.0 removes the enable_parallel configuration item, which only takes effect when supported_version < v2.3.0 , in v2.3.0

  • storageState mode: enable parallel transaction

  • mptState mode: disable parallel transactions

[tx_execute]
    enable_parallel=true
Optional configuration: group flow control

In order to prevent the mutual influence of resources between multiple groups, FISCO BCOS v2.5.0 introduces a flow control function, which supports group-level SDK request rate limit and flow limit, Configure [flow_control] located in group. {Group_id}.ini, disabled by default，For detailed design of flow control, please refer to here.

SDK to group request rate limit configuration

The SDK request rate limit within the group is located in the configuration item [flow_control] .limit_req, Used to limit the maximum number of SDK requests to the group per second, when the request to the node per second exceeds the value of the configuration item, the request will be rejected, SDK to group request rate limit is disabled by default, to enable this function, you need to remove the ; in front of the limit_req configuration item, An example of enable the SDK request rate limit and configuring the group to accept 1000 SDK requests per second is as follows:

[flow_control]
    ; restrict QPS of the group
    limit_req=1000
Traffic limit configuration between groups

In order to prevent block sync from occupying too much network traffic and affecting the message packet transmission of the consensus module, FISCO BCOS v2.5.0 introduces group-level traffic limit, which configures the upper limit of the average bandwidth of the group, but does not limit the block consensus and transaction sync, when the average bandwidth of the group exceeds the configured value, the block transmission will be suspended.

  • [flow_control].outgoing_bandwidth_limit: Group output bandwidth limit, the unit is Mbit/s, when the group output bandwidth exceeds this value, it will suspend sending blocks, but will not limit the block consensus and transaction broadcast traffic, this configuration item is disabled by default, to enable the traffic limit function, remove the ; before the outgoing_bandwidth_limit configuration item.

The configuration example of enable the group outbound traffic limit and setting it to 2MBit/s is as follows:

[flow_control]
    ; Mb, can be a decimal
    ; when the outgoing bandwidth exceeds the limit, the block synchronization operation will not proceed
    outgoing_bandwidth_limit=2
Optional configuration: SDK allowlist configuration

In order to achieve access control from SDK to group, FISCO BCOS v2.6.0 introduced a group-level SDK allowlist access control mechanism. The configuration of [sdk_allowlist] located in group.{group_id}.ini is disabled by default. Please refer to here for the group-level SDK allowlist mechanism.

Important

FISCO BCOS v2.6.0 disables the allowlist access control from SDK to group by default, that is, the SDK can communicate with all groups by default. To enable the allowlist-based access control function between SDK and group, you need to change the ;public_key.0 and other configuration items before the semicolon removed

  • public_key.0、public_key.1、…、public_key.i: Configure the SDK public key public key list allowed to communicate with the group.

SDK allowlist configuration example is as follows：

[sdk_allowlist]
; When sdk_allowlist is empty, all SDKs can connect to this node
; when sdk_allowlist is not empty, only the SDK in the allowlist can connect to this node
; public_key.0 should be nodeid, nodeid's length is 128
public_key.0=b8acb51b9fe84f88d670646be36f31c52e67544ce56faf3dc8ea4cf1b0ebff0864c6b218fdcd9cf9891ebd414a995847911bd26a770f429300085f3

Dynamically configure system parameters

FISCO BCOS system currently includes the following system parameters (other system parameters will be extended in the future):

System parameters Defaults meaning
tx_count_limit 1000 Maximum number of transactions that can be packed in a block
tx_gas_limit 300000000 Maximum gas limit for one transaction
rpbft_epoch_sealer_num Total number of chain consensus nodes rPBFT system configuration, the number of nodes participating in consensus is selected in a consensus period, and the number of nodes participating in consensus is dynamically switched in each consensus period of rPBFT
rpbft_epoch_block_num 1000 rPBFT system configuration, the number of blocks produced in a consensus period
consensus_timeout 3 During the PBFT consensus process, the block execution timeout time is at least 3s, When supported_version>=v2.6.0, the configuration item takes effect

Console provides setSystemConfigByKey command to modify these system parameters. getSystemConfigByKey command can view the current value of the system parameter:

Important

It is not recommended to modify tx_count_limit and tx_gas_limit arbitrarily. These parameters can be modified as follows:

  • Hardware performance such as machine network or CPU is limited: to reduce tx_count_limit for reducing business pressure;

  • gas is insufficient when executing transactions for comlicated business logic: increase tx_gas_limit.

rpbft_epoch_sealer_num and rpbft_epoch_block_num are only valid for the rPBFT consensus algorithm. In order to ensure the performance of the consensus, it is not recommended to frequently switch the consensus list dynamically, that is, it is not recommended that the rpbft_epoch_block_num configuration value is too small

OSCCA-approved cryptography

For fully supporting the OSCCA-approved cryptography algorithm, FISCO integrates the national encryption, decryption, signature, verification, hash algorithm and SSL communication protocol in the FISCO BCOS platform based on the OSCCA-approved cryptography standard. The design documents can be found in the FISCO BCOS Design Manual. OSCCA-approved cryptography Version.

Initial deployment of FISCO BCOS OSCCA-approved cryptography version

This section uses the build_chain script to build a 4-nodes FISCO BCOS chain locally, and uses Ubuntu 16.04 system as an example to operate. This section uses pre-compiled static fisco-bcos binaries for testing on CentOS 7 and Ubuntu 16.04.

OSCCA-approved cryptography configuration information

The nodes of FISCO BCOS OSCCA-approved cryptography version message through using SSL secure channel. The main configuration items of the SSL certificate are concentrated in the following configuration items:

[network_security]

data_path：path where the certificate file is located
key：the path of the node private key relative to the data_path
cert: the path of the certificate gmnode.crt relative to data_path
ca_cert: the path of certificate gmca

;certificate configuration
[network_security]
    ;directory the certificates located in
    data_path=conf/
    ;the node private key file
    key=gmnode.key
    ;the node certificate file
    cert=gmnode.crt
    ;the ca certificate file
    ca_cert=gmca.crt

After Fisco-BCOS version 2.5.0, nodes and SDKS can communicate using either SSL or national secret SSL connections. The configuration is as follows:

[chain]
    ; use SM crypto or not, should nerver be changed
    sm_crypto=true
    ; use SM SSL connection with SDK
    sm_crypto_channel=true

using OSCCA-approved cryptography SDK

For details, refer to [SDK Documentation] (../sdk/sdk.html#id8).

OSCCA-approved cryptography console configuration

using OSCCA-approved cryptography console

The function of OSCCA-approved cryptography console is used in the same way as the standard console. Console version 2.6 and above does not require additional configuration. For the configuration method of console version 1.x, please refer to Console Operation Manual.

OSCCA-approved cryptography configuration

OSCCA-approved cryptography Key Manager

Other steps are same as the standard Key Manager. Please refer to key-manager repository.

OSCCA-approved cryptography node configuration

FISCO BCOS OSCCA-approved cryptography version adopts dual certificate mode, so two sets of certificates are needed for disk encryption. They are the conf/gmnode.key and conf/origin_cert/node.key. Other operations of disk encryption are the same as [Standard Edition Loading Encryption Operation] (./storage_security.md).

  • Build an enterprise-level business chain, recommend to use generator

Introduction of star networking topology and parallel multi-group networking topology

As shown in the following figure, the star networking topology and the parallel multi-group networking topology are two widely used networking methods in blockchain applications.

  • Star networking topology: The nodes of the central agency belong to multiple groups, and runs multiple institutional applications. Nodes of the other agencies belongs to different groups and runs their respective applications;

  • Parallel multi-group networking topology: Each node in the blockchain belongs to multiple groups and can be used for multi-service expansion or multi-node expansion of the same service.

_images/group.png

The following is a detailed description of how to deploy a eight-node star networking blockchain system and a four-node parallel multi-group networking blockchain.

Installation dependency

Before deploying the FISCO BCOS blockchain, you need to install software such as openssl, curl, etc. The specific commands are as follows:

# CentOS
$ sudo yum install -y openssl curl

# Ubuntu
$ sudo apt install -y openssl curl

# Mac OS
$ brew install openssl curl

Star networking topology

In this chapter, we deploy a star networking blockchain system with four agencies, three groups and eight nodes in the local machine.

Here is the detailed configuration of star networking blockchain:

  • agencyA: belongs to group1、group2、group3, including 2 nodes with the same IP address 127.0.0.1;

  • agencyB: belongs to group1, including 2 nodes with the same IP address 127.0.0.1;

  • agencyC: belongs to group2, including 2 nodes with the same IP address 127.0.0.1;

  • agencyD: belongs to group3, including 2 nodes with the same IP address 127.0.0.1.

In a star network topology, the core node (in this case, the agencyA node) belongs to all groups and has a high load. It is recommended to deploy it separately on a machine with better performance.

Important

  • In the actual application scenario, it is not recommended to deploy multiple nodes on the same machine. It is recommended to select the number of deployed nodes in one machine according to the machine loading. Please refer to the hardware configuration

  • In a star network topology, the core node (in this case, the agencyA node) belongs to all groups and has a high load. It is recommended to deploy it separately on a machine with better performance.

  • When operating in different machines, please copy the generated IP folder to the corresponding machine to start. The chain building operation only needs to be performed once!

Generate configuration for star networking blockchain

build_chain.sh supports to generate configurations for blockchain with any topology, you can use this script to build configuration for the star networking blockchain.

Prepare for dependency

  • Create an operation directory

mkdir -p ~/fisco && cd ~/fisco

  • Download the build_chain.sh script

curl -#LO https://github.com/FISCO-BCOS/FISCO-BCOS/releases/download/v2.7.2/build_chain.sh && chmod u+x build_chain.sh

Note

  • If the script cannot be downloaded for a long time due to network problems, try curl -#LO https://gitee.com/FISCO-BCOS/FISCO-BCOS/raw/master-2.0/tools/gen_node_cert.sh

Generate configuration for star networking blockchain system

# Generate ip_list(configuration)
$ cat > ipconf << EOF
127.0.0.1:2 agencyA 1,2,3
127.0.0.1:2 agencyB 1
127.0.0.1:2 agencyC 2
127.0.0.1:2 agencyD 3
EOF

# Check the content of ip_list
$ cat ipconf
# Meaning of the space-separated parameters:
# ip:num: IP of the physical machine and the number of nodes
# agency_name: agency name
# group_list: the list of groups the nodes belong to, groups are separated by comma
127.0.0.1:2 agencyA 1,2,3
127.0.0.1:2 agencyB 1
127.0.0.1:2 agencyC 2
127.0.0.1:2 agencyD 3

Create node configuration folder for star networking blockchain using build_chain script

Please refer to the build_chain for more parameter descriptions of build_chain.sh.

# Generate a blockchain of star networking and make sure ports 30300~30301, 20200~20201, 8545~8546 of the local machine are not occupied

Start node

FISCO-BCOS provides the start_all.sh and stop_all.sh scripts to start and stop the node.

# Switch to the node directory
$ cd ~/fisco/nodes/127.0.0.1

# Start the node
$ bash start_all.sh

Check consensus status of groups

When no transaction is sent, the node with normal consensus status will output +++ log. In this example, node0 and node1 belong to group1, group2 and group3; node2 and node3 belong to group1; node4 and node5 belong to group2; node6 and node7 belong to group3. Check the status of node by tail -f node*/log/* | grep "++".

Important

Node with normal consensus status prints +++ log, fields of +++ log are defined as:

  • g:: group ID;

  • blkNum: the newest block number generated by the Leader node;

  • tx: the number of transactions included in the new block;

  • nodeIdx: the index of this node;

  • hash: hash of the newest block generated by consensus nodes.

# Check if node0 group1 is normal(Ctrl+c returns to the command line)
$ tail -f node0/log/* | grep "g:1.*++"

Configuration console

The console connects to the FISCO BCOS node, it is used to query the blockchain status and deploy the calling contract, etc. Please refer to here for the console manual for version 2.6 and above, and here for the console manual for version 1.x.

Important

The console relies on Java 8 and above, and Ubuntu 16.04 system needs be installed with openjdk 8. Please install Oracle Java 8 or above for CentOS.

# Switch back to ~/fisco folder
$ cd ~/fisco

# Download console
$ curl -#LO https://github.com/FISCO-BCOS/console/releases/download/v2.9.2/download_console.sh

Send transactions to groups

In the above section, we learned how to configure the console, this section will introduce how to send transactions to groups through the console.

Important

In the group architecture, the ledgers are independent in each group. And sending transactions to one group only increases the block number of this group but not others

Send transactions through console

# ... Send HelloWorld transaction to group1...
$ [group:1]> deploy HelloWorld
transaction hash: 0xd0305411e36d2ca9c1a4df93e761c820f0a464367b8feb9e3fa40b0f68eb23fa

Node joins the group

Through the console, FISCO BCOS can add the specified node to the specified group, or delete the node from the specified group. For details, please refer to the node admission management manual, for console configuration, please reference console operation manual.

Taking how to join node2 to group2 as an example, this chapter introduces how to add a new node to an existing group.

Copy group2 configuration to node2

# Switch to node directory
$ cd ~/fisco/nodes/127.0.0.1

# ... Copy group2 configuration of node0 to node2 ...
$ cp node0/conf/group.2.* node2/conf

# ...Restart node2(make sure the node is in normal consensus after restart)...
$ cd node2 && bash stop.sh && bash start.sh

Get the ID of node2

# Please remember the node ID of node2. Add node2 to group2 needs the node ID.
$ cat conf/node.nodeid

Send commands to group2 through the console to add node2 into group2

# ...Go back to the console directory and launch the console (direct boot to group2)...
$ cd ~/fisco/console && bash start.sh 2

# ...Join node2 as a consensus node through the console...

Parallel multi-group networking topology

Deploying parallel multi-group networking blockchain is similar with deploying star networking blockchain. Taking a four-node two-group parallel multi-group blockchain as an example:

  • group 1: includs 4 nodes with the same IP 127.0.0.1;

  • group 2: includs 4 nodes with the same IP 127.0.0.1.

In a real application scenario, it is not recommended to deploy multiple nodes on the same machine. It is recommended to select the number of deployed nodes according to the machine load. To demonstrate the parallel multi-group expansion process, only group1 is created here first. In a parallel multi-group scenario, node join and exit group operations are similar to star networking topology.

Important

  • In a real application scenario, it is not recommended to deploy multiple nodes the same machine, It is recommended to determine the number of deployed nodes according to the machine load

  • To demonstrate the parallel multi-group expansion process, only group1 is created here first

  • In a parallel multi-group scenario, the operations of node joining into a group or leaving from a group are similar to star networking blockchain.

Build blockchain with a single group and 4 nodes

Distributed storage

Install MySQL

The currently supported distributed database is MySQL. Before using distributed storage, you need to set up the MySQL service. The configuration on Ubuntu and CentOS servers is as follows:

Ubuntu: Execute the following three commands to configure the root account password during the installation process.

sudo apt install -y mysql-server mysql-client libmysqlclient-dev

Start the MySQL service and log in: root account password.

sudo service mysql start
mysql -uroot -p

CentOS: Perform the following two commands to install.

yum install mysql*
# some versions of linux need to install mariadb which is a branch of mysql
yum install mariadb*

Start the MySQL service. Log in and set a password for the root user.

service mysqld start
#If mariadb is installed, to use the following command to start
service mariadb start
mysql -uroot
mysql> set password for root@localhost = password('123456');

Configure MySQL parameters

check the configuration file my.cnf
mysql --help | grep 'Default options' -A 1

After execution, you can see the following data:

Default options are read from the following files in the given order:
/etc/mysql/my.cnf /etc/my.cnf ~/.my.cnf
Configure my.cnf

mysql loads the configuration from /etc/mysql/my.cnf, /etc/my.cnf, ~/.my.cnf in turn. Search these files in turn, find the first file that exists, and add the following content in the [mysqld] section (modify the value if it exists).

max_allowed_packet = 1024M
sql_mode =STRICT_TRANS_TABLES
ssl=0
default_authentication_plugin = mysql_native_password
Restart mysql-server and verify parameters

Ubuntu：Execute the following command to restart

service mysql restart

CentOS：Execute the following command to restart

service mysqld start

Node directly connected to MySQL

FISCO BCOS in version 2.0.0-rc3 supports nodes directly connected to MySQL through connection pool. Compared to the proxy access MySQL mode, this configuration is simple. No need to manually create a database. Please refer to the configuration method:

Logical architecture diagram

The multi-group architecture means that blockchain node supports launching multiple groups. The transaction processing, data storage, and block consensus among the groups are isolated from each other. Therefore, each node in the group corresponds to a database instance. For example, in blockchain network, there are three nodes A, B, and C, where A and B belong to Group1, and B and C belong to Group2. Nodes A and C correspond to one database instance respectively, and Node B corresponds to two database instances. The logical architecture diagram is as follows. _images/storage1.png

As shown in the above figure, NodeB belongs to multiple groups. The database instances which are corresponded by the same node in different groups are separate. For distinguishing the same node in different groups, the nodes of A, B, and C are respectively represented with Group1_A (NodeA in Group1, same as below), Group1_B, Group2_B, and Group2_C.

We use the above figure as an example to describe the setup configuration process in following.

Build node

Before using distributed storage, you need to complete the establishment of the alliance chain and the configuration of multiple groups. For details, refer to the following steps.

SDK allowlist mechanism

FISCO BCOS 2.0 started to support multiple groups, but did not control the SDK’s access rights to multiple groups. As long as the SDK can establish a connection with the node, it can access all the groups of the node, which will bring security risks.

FISCO BCOS v2.6.0 introduces a group-level SDK allowlist mechanism, controls the SDK’s access rights to groups, and provides scripts to support the dynamic loading of the SDK allowlist list, further improving the security of the blockchain system.

Note

  • When the number of SDK allowlist lists in the configuration item is 0, the node does not enable the SDK allowlist control function, and any SDK can access the group;

  • The SDK allowlist is a node-level access control mechanism. The node that enables this function controls the SDK’s access rights to the node group based on the locally configured allowlist;

  • The SDK allowlist mechanism controls SDK access to all group-level interfaces of the node

Configuration

Note

The SDK allowlist configuration of each group is located in the [sdk_allowlist] configuration item of the group.{group_id}.ini configuration file. For details, please refer to here

Get SDK public key

Before adding the SDK to the allowlist, you first need to obtain the SDK public key, which is used to set the public_key of group.*.ini. The methods for obtaining the SDK public key for each version are as follows:

Newly built chain

The SDK certificate generated by the newly built chain comes with SDK private key information. The standard version is sdk.publickey, and the OSCCA-approved version is gmsdk.publickey:

# Assuming that the certificate has been copied to the SDK, enter the SDK directory and execute the following command (sdk is located in the ~/fisco directory)
$ cd ~/fisco/java-sdk

# Obtain the public key of the OSCCA-approved SDK
$ cat dist/conf/sdk.publickey

# Obtain the public key of the standard SDK
$ cat dist/conf/gmsdk.publickey
Old chain

The old chain needs to use openssl or tassl commands to generate sdk.publickey (the OSCCA-approved version is gmsdk.publickey), and load the public key from the generated file, as follows:

Standard Version

# Enter the SDK directory and execute the following command:
$ openssl ec -in dist/conf/sdk.key -text -noout 2> /dev/null | sed -n '7,11p' | tr -d ": \n" | awk '{print substr($0,3);}' | cat > dist/conf/sdk.publickey
# Obtain the public key
$ cat dist/conf/sdk.publickey

OSCCA-approved Version

# Note: It must be ensured that ~/.fisco/tassl exists
$ ~/.fisco/tassl ec -in dist/conf/gmsdk.key -text -noout 2> /dev/null | sed -n '7,11p' | sed 's/://g' | tr "\n" " " | sed 's/ //g' | awk '{print substr($0,3);}'  | cat > dist/conf/gmsdk.publickey
# Get SDK public key
$ cat dist/conf/gmsdk.publickey

Dynamically modify the SDK allowlist

In order to facilitate users to modify the SDK allowlist list, the reload_sdk_allowlist.sh script is provided in the scripts directory of each node to reload the SDK allowlist.

Note

There is no reload_sdk_allowlist.sh script on the old chain nodes, and the script can be downloaded by the command curl -#LO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/FISCO-BCOS/FISCO-BCOS/master-2.0/tools/reload_sdk_allowlist.sh.

Example

This section takes adding and modifying the console to the whitelist as an example to show in detail how to use the SDK allowlist mechanism.

Build a blockchain and copy the certificate to the console

Please refer to Installation.

Get console public key information

# Enter the console directory
$ cd ~/fisco/console/

# Obtain console public key information through sdk.publickey
$ cat conf/sdk.publickey
ebf5535c92f7116310ed9e0f9fc9bfc66a607415d4fa444d91f528485eff61b15e40a70bc5d73f0441d3959efbc7718c20bd452ac4beed5f6c4feb9fabc1f9f6

Enable the SDK allowlist mechanism

Add the public key of a console to the allowlist of the group.[group_id].ini configuration file of node0:

[sdk_allowlist]
public_key.0=b8acb51b9fe84f88d670646be36f31c52e67544ce56faf3dc8ea4cf1b0ebff0864c6b218fdcd9cf9891ebd414a995847911bd26a770f429300085f37e1131f36

Reload the SDK allowlist

$ bash node0/scripts/reload_sdk_allowlist.sh
 [INFO] node0 is trying to reload sdk allowlist. Check log for more information.

# After the SDK allowlist is successfully hot-loaded, the node outputs the following log:
parseSDKAllowList,sdkAllowList=[b8acb51b9fe84f88d670646be36f31c52e67544ce56faf3dc8ea4cf1b0ebff0864c6b218fdcd9cf9891ebd414a995847911bd26a770f429300085f37e1131f36],enableSDKAllowListControl=true

Console access node

Note

Since the SDK allowlist is a node-level access control mechanism, in order to demonstrate the access control function of node0 to the SDK, the console only connects to node0.

Since node0 does not configure the console’s access rights to the group, the result of the deployment contract is as follows:

# Deploy HelloWorld contract in the console
[group:1]> deploy HelloWorld
sendRawTransaction The SDK is not allowed to access this group

Add the console to the SDK allowlist

Configure the console to the allowlist of node0:

[sdk_allowlist]
public_key.0=b8acb51b9fe84f88d670646be36f31c52e67544ce56faf3dc8ea4cf1b0ebff0864c6b218fdcd9cf9891ebd414a995847911bd26a770f429300085f37e1131f36
public_key.1=ebf5535c92f7116310ed9e0f9fc9bfc66a607415d4fa444d91f528485eff61b15e40a70bc5d73f0441d3959efbc7718c20bd452ac4beed5f6c4feb9fabc1f9f6

Reload the SDK whitelist list:

$ bash node0/scripts/reload_sdk_allowlist.sh
 [INFO] node0 is trying to reload sdk allowlist. Check log for more information.

# After the SDK allowlist is successfully hot-loaded, the node outputs the following log:
parseSDKAllowList,sdkAllowList=[b8acb51b9fe84f88d670646be36f31c52e67544ce56faf3dc8ea4cf1b0ebff0864c6b218fdcd9cf9891ebd414a995847911bd26a770f429300085f37e1131f36,ebf5535c92f7116310ed9e0f9fc9bfc66a607415d4fa444d91f528485eff61b15e40a70bc5d73f0441d3959efbc7718c20bd452ac4beed5f6c4feb9fabc1f9f6],enableSDKAllowListControl=true

Console access node

After node0 is added to the console to the allowlist, the console can deploy the contract normally, as follows:

[group:1]> deploy HelloWorld
contract address: 0xcd4ccd96c86fe8e4f27b056c0fdb7eb4ca201f0f

Storage security

The data of the alliance chain is only visible to members of the alliance. Disk encryption ensures the security of the data running on the alliance chain on the hard disk. Once the hard drive is taken out from the intranet environment of alliance chain, the data will not be decrypted.

Disk encryption encrypts the content stored on the hard disk by the node. The encrypted content includes: the data of the contract and the private key of the node.

For specific disk encryption introduction, please refer to: Introduction of Disk Encryption

Key Manager deployment

Each agency has a Key Manager. For specific deployment steps, please refer to Key Manager README or Key Manager Gitee README

Node building

Use the script [build_chain.sh] (../installation.md) to build a node with normal operations.

curl -#LO https://github.com/FISCO-BCOS/FISCO-BCOS/releases/download/v2.9.1/build_chain.sh && chmod u+x build_chain.sh

Note

  • If the script cannot be downloaded for a long time due to network problems, try curl -#LO https://gitee.com/FISCO-BCOS/FISCO-BCOS/raw/master-2.0/tools/build_chain.sh

bash build_chain.sh -l 127.0.0.1:4 -p 30300,20200,8545

Important

The node cannot be launched until the dataKey is configured. Before the node runs for the first time, it must be configured to use the disk encryption or not. Once the node starts running, it cannot be switched its state.

Key Manager launch

To launch key-manager directly. If key-manager is not deployed, refer to Key Manager README Introduction.

# parameter: port，superkey
./key-manager 8150 123xyz

launch successfully and print the log.

[1546501342949][TRACE][Load]key-manager started,port=8150

DataKey configuration

Important

The node configured by the dataKey must be newly generated node and has not been launched.

To execute the script, define dataKey, and get cipherDataKey

cd key-manager/scripts
bash gen_data_secure_key.sh 127.0.0.1 8150 123456

CiherDataKey generated: ed157f4588b86d61a2e1745efe71e6ea
Append these into config.ini to enable disk encryption:
[storage_security]
enable=true
key_manager_ip=127.0.0.1
key_manager_port=8150
cipher_data_key=ed157f4588b86d61a2e1745efe71e6ea

The script for getting cipherDataKey automatically prints out the ini configuration required for the disk encryption (see below). Now, the cipherDataKey is:cipher_data_key=ed157f4588b86d61a2e1745efe71e6ea

To write the ini configuration that has been disk encryption to the node configuration file (config.ini).

vim nodes/127.0.0.1/node0/config.ini

To put it at last like this.

[storage_security]
enable=true
key_manager_ip=127.0.0.1
key_manager_port=8150
cipher_data_key=ed157f4588b86d61a2e1745efe71e6ea

Encrypted node private key

To execute script and encrypt node private key

Important

All files that need to be encrypted are listed below. If they are not encrypted, the node cannot be launched.

  • standard version: conf/node.key

  • national cryptography version: conf/gmnode.key和conf/origin_cert/node.key

Node running

to launch node directly

cd nodes/127.0.0.1/node0/
./start.sh

Correct judgment

(1) The node runs and generates block normally, and the block information is continuously output.

tail -f nodes/127.0.0.1/node0/log/* | grep +++

(2) key-manager will print a log each time the node launches. For example, when a node launches, the log directly output by Key Manager is as follows.

[1546504272699][TRACE][Dec]Respond

}

Group members management

FISCO BCOS introduces free nodes, observer nodes and consensus nodes which can be converted to each other by the console.

  • Group member

    • Consensus nodes (Sealer)

    • Observer nodes (Observer)

  • Non-Group member

    • Free nodes (The node waiting for joining the group)

Operation command

The console provides three commands of AddSealer, AddObserver, and RemoveNode to convert the specified node to Sealer, Oberserver, and RemoveNode, and can use getSealerList, getObserverList, and getNodeIDList to view the current list of Sealer, Observer, and other nodes.

  • addSealer: to set the corresponding node as the Sealer according to the NodeID;

  • addObserver: to set the corresponding node as the Observer according to the NodeID;

  • removeNode: to set the corresponding node as the RemoveNode according to the NodeID;

  • getSealerList: to view the Sealer in the group;

  • getObserverList: to view the Observer in the group;

  • getNodeIDList: to view the NodeID in the group;

For example, to convert the specified nodes to Sealer, Observer, and RemoveNode, the main operation commands are as follows:

Important

Before accessing the node, please ensure that:

  • Node ID exists and can execute cat that is getting from conf/node.nodeid in the node directory

  • All Sealers are normal, and they will output +++ logs.

Operation cases

The following describes the operations of group expansion and node exit in detail with specific operation cases. Group expansion is divided into two phases, namely adding nodes to the network and adding nodes to the group. Also, node exit is divided into two phases, namely exiting node from the group and exiting node from the network.

Operation methods

  • Node configuration modification: After the node modifies its own configuration, it need to be restarted to takes effect. The involved operations include network adding/exit and CA blacklist inclusion/removal.

  • Transaction uploading to the chain: To modify the transaction, the configuration of group consensus is needed, and the operation involves the modification of node type. The current sending transaction path is the pre-compiled service interface provided by the console and SDK.

  • RPC inquiry：To use the command curl to inquire the information on the chain, and the operation involves the query of the group node.

Operation steps

In this section, the following figure is taken as an example to describe the operations of expansion and network exit show above.

The dotted line indicates that network communication can be performed among nodes, and the solid line indicates that nodes have group relationships base on the communication among nodes, and colors’ difference distinguish different group relationships.

The below figure below shows a network with three groups of which Group3 has three nodes. Whether Group3 has intersection nodes with other groups does not affect the versatility of the following operation process.

_images/multi_ledger_example.png

group example
Here we take the following node information of Group 3 as an example:

The folder name of node 1 is node0, IP port 127.0.0.1:30400, the former 4 bytes of nodeID b231b309…

The folder name of node 2 is node1, IP port 127.0.0.1:30401, the former 4 bytes of nodeID aab37e73…

The folder name of node 3 is node2, IP port 127.0.0.1:30402, the former 4 bytes of nodeID d6b01a96…

Node A to join the network

Background:

Node 3 is outside the network and wants to join it now.

Operation steps:

1 . enter nodes folder and execute gen_node_cert.sh to generate node folder. Here we name the folder as node2, which contains conf/ folder;

# acquire script
$ curl -#LO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/FISCO-BCOS/FISCO-BCOS/master-2.0/tools/gen_node_cert.sh && chmod u+x gen_node_cert.sh
# execute, -c is the ca route given when the node was generated, agency is the agency name, -o is the name of the node folder to be generated ( use -g when the node type is GM )
$ ./gen_node_cert.sh -c nodes/cert/agency -o node2

Note

  • If download failed, please try curl -#LO https://gitee.com/FISCO-BCOS/FISCO-BCOS/raw/master-2.0/tools/gen_node_cert.sh

2 . copy node 2 under nodes/127.0.0.1/, parallel with other node folder (node0, node1);

$ cp -r ./node2/ nodes/127.0.0.1/

3 . enter nodes/127.0.0.1/, copy node0/config.ini, node0/start.sh and node0/stop.sh to node2 directory;

$ cd nodes/127.0.0.1/
$ cp node0/config.ini node0/start.sh node0/stop.sh node2/

4 . modify node2/config.ini. For [rpc] model, modify channel_listen_port and jsonrpc_listen_port; for [p2p] model, modify listen_port and add its node information in node..

Note

For the convenience of development and experience, the recommended configuration of channel_listen_ip/listen_ip is 0.0.0.0. For security considerations, please modify it to a safe listening address according to the actual business network situation, such as the internal IP or a specific external IP

$ vim node2/config.ini
[rpc]
    ;rpc listen ip
    channel_listen_ip=0.0.0.0
    jsonrpc_listen_ip=127.0.0.1
    ;channelserver listen port
    channel_listen_port=20302
    ;jsonrpc listen port
    jsonrpc_listen_port=8647
[p2p]
    ;p2p listen ip
    listen_ip=0.0.0.0
    ;p2p listen port
    listen_port=30402
    ;nodes to connect
    node.0=127.0.0.1:30400
    node.1=127.0.0.1:30401
    node.2=127.0.0.1:30402

5 . node 3 copies node1/conf/group.3.genesis(which contains initial list of group nodes) and node1/conf/group.3.ini to node2/conf folder, without modification;

$ cp node1/conf/group.3.genesis node2/conf/
$ cp node1/conf/group.3.ini node2/conf/

6 . execute node2/start.sh and start node 3;

$ ./node2/start.sh

7 . confirm that node 3 is connected with node 1, 2, then it has joined the network now.

# Open the DEBUG log to check the number and ID of nodes connected with node 2
# The following log information indicates that node 2 is connected with 2 nodes(with the former 4 bytes being b231b309 and aab37e73)
$ tail -f node2/log/log*  | grep P2P

- If CA whitelist is enabled, you should configure every nodeID into every nodes’ whitelist configuration and reload the configuration. Read “CA blacklist and whitelist” for more.

  • The other configurations of config.ini copied from node 1 remain the same;

  • Theoretically, node 1, 2 can accomplish the extension of node 3 without changing their p2p connecting nodes list;

  • The group to be chosen in step 5 are recommended to be the group to be joined by node 3;

  • To keep in full connection status, we recommend users to add the information of node 3 to the p2p connecting nodes list in config.ini of node 1, 2, and restart node 1, 2.

Node A to quit the network

Background:

Node 3 is in the network and connected with node 1, 2. Now node 3 needs to quit the network.

Operation steps:

1 . For node 3, clear up the P2P connecting nodes list, and restart node 3;

# execute under node 2
$ ./stop.sh
$ ./start.sh
nohup: appending output to ‘nohup.out’

2 . For node 1, 2, remove node 3 form their P2P connecting nodes list(if has), and restart node 1, 2;

3 . Confirm that node 3 has been disconnected with node 1, 2, and it has quitted the network now.

Note

  • node 3 has to quit the group before quitting the network, which is guaranteed by users and will not be verified by the system;

  • the networking process is started by nodes. If missing step 2, node 3 can still get the p2p connecting request from node 1, 2 and start connection. It can be stopped by using CA blacklist.

  • If CA whitelist is enabled, you should delete the node from every nodes’ whitelist configuration and reload the configuration. Read “CA blacklist and whitelist” for more.

Node A to join a group

Background:

Group 3 contains node 1, 2, either generates block in turn. Now node 3 wants to join the group.

Operation steps:

  1. Node 3 joins the network;

  2. Set node 3 as the consensus node using console addSealer according to the node ID;

  3. check if the node ID of node 3 is included in the consensus nodes of group 3 through console getSealerList. If is, then it has joined the group successfully.

Note

  • node ID of node 3 can be acquired through cat nodes/127.0.0.1/node2/conf/node.nodeid;

  • the first start of node 3 will write the configured group node initial list to the node system list, when the blocks stop synchronizing, the node system lists of each node are the same;

  • node 3 needs to have access to the network before joining the group, which will be verified by the system;

  • the group fixed configuration file of node 3 should be the same with node 1, 2.

Node A to quit the group

Background:

Group 3 contains node 1, 2, 3, either of which generates block in turn. Now node 3 wants to quit the group.

Operation steps:

  1. set node 3 as free node according to its ID using console removeNode;

  2. check if the node ID of node 3 is included in the consensus nodes of group 3 through console getSealerList. If not, then node 3 has quited the group.

Additional:

Note

  • node 3 can quit the group as a consensus node or observer node.

Permission control

TODO: add Role Based Access control

Roles and Permissions

Permission conrtol based on Table permission

This section will introduce the operations concerning permission control, for details please check Design of Permission Control.

For the system is defaulted with no permission setting record, any account can perform permission setting. For example, account 1 gives permission of contract deployment to itself, but account 2 also sets itself with permission of contract deployment. So the setting of account 1 becomes meaningless for every other node can add permissions freely. Therefore, before building consortium chain, confirming permission setting rules is needed. We can use grantPermissionManager instruction to set manager account, that is to give some account access to permission setting, which other accounts don’t have.

Environment configuration

Configure and start the nodes and console of FISCO BCOS 2.0+. For reference please check Installation.

Tools for permission control

FISCO BCOS offers permission control of console commands (developers can call PermissionService API of SDK API for permission control). The involved permission control commands are:

Command Parameter Function
grantPermissionManager address Grant permission to be chain manager
revokePermissionManager address Revoke permission of chain manager
listPermissionManager Inquire list of accounts with chain manager permission
grantDeployAndCreateManager address Grant permission to deploy contract and create user table
revokeDeployAndCreateManager address Revoke permission to deploy contract and create user table
listDeployAndCreateManager Inquire list of accounts with permission to deploy contract and create user table
grantNodeManager address Grant permission to manage node
revokeNodeManager address Revoke permission to manage node
listNodeManager Inquire list of accounts with permission to manage node
grantCNSManager address Grant CNS permission
revokeCNSManager address Revoke CNS permission
listCNSManager Inquire list of accounts with CNS permission
grantSysConfigManager address Grant permission to modify system parameter
revokeSysConfigManager address Revoke permission to modify system parameter
listSysConfigManager Inquire list of accounts with permission to modify system parameter
grantUserTableManager table_name address Grant permission to write user table
revokeUserTableManager table_name address Revoke permission to write user table
listUserTableManager table_name Inquire list of accounts with permission to write user table
Permission control example

Console provides script get_account.sh to generate accounts. The account files will be stored in accounts folder. Console can set active accounts. The operation method is introduced in Console tutorial. Therefore, through console we can set account to experience permission control. For account safety, we will generate 3 PKCS12 account files under the root folder of console by get_account.sh script. Please remember the password during generation. The 3 PKCS12 account files are:

# account 1
0x2c7f31d22974d5b1b2d6d5c359e81e91ee656252.p12
# account 2
0x7fc8335fec9da5f84e60236029bb4a64a469a021.p12
# account 3
0xd86572ad4c92d4598852e2f34720a865dd4fc3dd.p12

Now we can open 3 Linux terminal and log in console with the 3 accounts separately.

Log in with account 1:

$ ./start.sh 1 -p12 accounts/0x2c7f31d22974d5b1b2d6d5c359e81e91ee656252.p12

Log in with account 2:

$ ./start.sh 1 -p12 accounts/0x7fc8335fec9da5f84e60236029bb4a64a469a021.p12

Log in with account 3：

$ ./start.sh 1 -p12 accounts/0xd86572ad4c92d4598852e2f34720a865dd4fc3dd.p12
Grant permission of chain manager

The 3 accounts play 3 kinds of roles. Account 1 performs chain manager, account 2 performs system manager and account 3 the regular account. Chain manager has permission for access control, namely granting permissions. System manager can manager permissions related to system functions, each of which should be granted independently, including deploying contract, creating user table, managing nodes and deploying contract with CNS and modifying system parameter. Chain manager can grant other accounts to be chain manager or system manager, or grant regular accounts to write table list.

Initial status of chain contains no permission records. Now, we can enter the console of account 1 and set itself as the chain manager, so other accounts are regular accounts.

Account 3 fails to deploy contract as it has no permission.

  • Note: deploying contract and creating user table are “2-in-1” control items. When using CRUD interface contracts, we suggest to create the needed tables (creating tables in building function of contract) when deploying contract, otherwise “table-missing” error may occur when reading or writing table. If it is needed to dynamically create table, the permission should be granted to minority accounts, otherwise there will be many invalid tables on blockchain.

Grant permission to deploy contract using CNS

Console provides 3 commands involving CNS:

command name parameter function
deployByCNS contractName contractVersion deploy contract using CNS
callByCNS contractName contractVersion funcName params call contract using CNS
queryCNS contractName [contractVersion] inquire CNS information

Note: permission of deployByCNS command is controllable and needs permission to deploy contract and use CNS at the same time, permissions of callByCNS and queryCNS commands are not controllable.

Log in console with account 1, grant account 2 with permission to deploy contract using CNS.

addSealer nodeID set node as consensus node
addObserver nodeID set node as observer node
removeNode nodeID set node as free node
getSealerList inquire consensus node list
getObserverList inquire observer node list

  • Note: permissions of addSealer, addObserver and removeNode commands are controllable, while permissions of getSealerList and getObserverList commands are not.

Log in console with account 1, grant account 2 with permission to manage nodes.

Account 3 fails to add consensus node for lack of permission to manage nodes. Now only account 2 has permission to add observer node to consensus node list.

Grant permission to modify system parameter

Console provides 2 commands about system parameter modification:

Command name parameter function
setSystemConfigByKey key value set system parameter with key and value
getSystemConfigByKey key inquire value by key

  • Note: currently we support system parameter setting with key tx_count_limit or tx_gas_limit. Permission of setSystemConfigByKey command is controllable, while permission of getSystemConfigByKey command is not.

Log in console with account 1, grant account 2 with permission to modify system parameter.

Log description

All group logs of FISCO BCOS are outputted in the log directory to the file log_% YYYY% mm% dd% HH.% MM, and the log format is customized to facilitate users to view the status of each group through the log. Please refer to the log configuration instructions Log configuration instructions

Log format

Each log record format is as follows:

# Log format:
log_level|time|[g:group_id][module_name] content

# Example log:
info|2019-06-26 16:37:08.253147|[g:3][CONSENSUS][PBFT]^^^^^^^^Report,num=0,sealerIdx=0,hash=a4e10062...,next=1,tx=0,nodeIdx=2

The meaning of each field is as follows:

  • log_level: Log level, currently mainly includingtrace, debug, info, warning, error and fatal, Where fatal is output when an extremely serious error occurs

  • time: Log output time, accurate to nanoseconds

  • group_id: Output log group ID

  • module_name: Module keyword, for example, SYNC module keyword is SYNC and consensus module keyword is CONSENSUS

  • content: Logging content

Common log description

Consensus packaging block log

Note

  • Only the consensus node will periodically output the consensus packaging log (you can use the command tail -f log/* | grep "${group_id}.*++" under the node directory to view the specified group consensus packaging log)

  • The packaging log can check whether the consensus node of the specified group is abnormal, abnormal consensus nodes will not output packed logs

The following is an example of a consensus packaging log:

info|2019-06-26 18:00:02.551399|[g:2][CONSENSUS][SEALER]++++++++++++++++ Generating seal on,blkNum=1,tx=0,nodeIdx=3,hash=1f9c2b14...

The meaning of each field in the log is as follows:

  • blkNum: Height of packed blocks

  • tx: The number of transactions contained in the packed block

  • nodeIdx: Index of the current consensus node

  • hash: Hash of packed block

Consensus exception log

Network jitter, network disconnection, or configuration errors (like the inconsistency of a group’s genesis block files) may all cause abnormal node consensus, The PBFT consensus node will output the ViewChangeWarning log, the example is as follows:

warning|2019-06-26 18:00:06.154102|[g:1][CONSENSUS][PBFT]ViewChangeWarning: not caused by omit empty block ,v=5,toV=6,curNum=715,hash=ed6e856d...,nodeIdx=3,myNode=e39000ea...

The meaning of each field of the log is as follows:

  • v: PBFT consensus view of current node

  • toV: The view the current node is trying to switch to

  • curNum: The highest block height of the node

  • hash: Node highest block hash

  • nodeIdx: Current consensus node request

  • myNode: Node ID of the current node

Block Commit Log

If the block consensus is successful or the node is synchronizing blocks from other nodes, the log will be output.

Note

Send a transaction to the node, if the transaction is processed, the non-free node will output the log (n the node directory, you can use the command tail -f log/* | grep "${group_id}.*Report" to check the status of the node block), If the log is not output, it indicates that the node is in an abnormal state. Please check whether the network connection is normal and the node certificate is valid.

The following is the block commit log:

info|2019-06-26 18:00:07.802027|[g:1][CONSENSUS][PBFT]^^^^^^^^Report,num=716,sealerIdx=2,hash=dfd75e06...,next=717,tx=8,nodeIdx=3

The description of each field in the log is as follows:

  • num: Committed block height

  • sealerIdx: The consensus node index that packages the block

  • hash: Committed block hash

  • next: Next block height

  • tx: Number of transactions included in the block

  • nodeIdx: Current consensus node index

Network connection log

Note

n the node directory, you can check the network status by using the command tail -f log/* | grep "connected count", If the number of network connections output by the log does not meet expectations, please check the node connection through the netstat -anp | grep fisco-bcos command

Examples of logs are as follows:

info|2019-06-26 18:00:01.343480|[P2P][Service] heartBeat,connected count=3

The meaning of each field in the log is as follows:

  • connected count: Number of nodes that establish a P2P network connection with the current node

Log module keywords

The core module keywords in the FISCO BCOS log are as follows:

Module Module keywords

Application Development

Manage blockchain accounts

FISCO BCOS uses accounts to identify each individual user. In a blockchain system each account corresponds to a pair of public and private keys. The account named by the address string calculated by the secure one-way algorithm such as sha256 hash, that is account address. For distinguishing from the address of smart contract, the account address is often referred to as the external account address. The private key only known by the user corresponds to the password in the traditional authentication model. Users need to prove that they own the private key of the corresponding account through a secure cryptographic protocol for claiming their ownership of the account, and performing some sensitive account operations.

Important

In the previous tutorials, for simplifying the operation, we operate with the account provided by the tool by default. However, in actual application deployment, users need to create their own accounts and properly save the account private key to avoid serious security problems such as account private key leakage.

In this article, we will specifically introduce the creation, storage and use of accounts. Readers are required to have a basic knowledge of Linux.

FISCO BCOS provides the get_account script to create accounts, as well as Java SDK and console to store account private keys. Users can choose to store the account private key as a file in PEM or PKCS12 format according to their needs. The PEM format uses a plaintext storage private key, and the PKCS 12 encrypts and stores the private key using a user-provided password.

Create your account

Use script to create account

The usage of get_gm_account.sh is the same as get_account.sh.

1. get script
curl -#LO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/FISCO-BCOS/console/master-2.0/tools/get_account.sh && chmod u+x get_account.sh && bash get_account.sh -h

Note

  • If the get_account.sh script cannot be downloaded for a long time due to network problems, try curl -#LO https://gitee.com/FISCO-BCOS/console/raw/master-2.0/tools/get_account.sh && chmod u+x get_account.sh && bash get_account.sh -h

  • Please use curl -#LO https://osp-1257653870.cos.ap-guangzhou.myqcloud.com/FISCO-BCOS/FISCO-BCOS/tools/tassl-1.0.2/tassl.tar.gz, and place in ~/.fisco/tassl

If you use guomi version fisco, please execute below command to get get_gm_account.sh

curl -#LO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/FISCO-BCOS/console/master-2.0/tools/get_gm_account.sh && chmod u+x get_gm_account.sh && bash get_gm_account.sh -h

Note

  • If the get_gm_account.sh script cannot be downloaded for a long time due to network problems, try curl -#LO https://gitee.com/FISCO-BCOS/console/raw/master-2.0/tools/get_gm_account.sh && chmod u+x get_gm_account.sh && bash get_gm_account.sh -h

execute the above command and if you see the following output, you are downloading the correct script, otherwise please try again.

Usage: ./get_account.sh
    default       generate account and store private key in PEM format file
    -p            generate account and store private key in PKCS12 format file
    -k [FILE]     calculate the address of PEM format [FILE]
    -P [FILE]     calculate the address of PKCS12 format [FILE]
    -h Help
2. Generate private key in PEM format

  • generate private key and address

bash get_account.sh

Execute the above command to get output similar to the following. It includes the account address and the private key PEM file with the account address as the file name.

[INFO] Account Address   : 0xee5fffba2da55a763198e361c7dd627795906ead
[INFO] Private Key (pem) : accounts/0xee5fffba2da55a763198e361c7dd627795906ead.pem

  • Specify the calculation account address of PEM format

bash get_account.sh -k accounts/0xee5fffba2da55a763198e361c7dd627795906ead.pem

Execute the above command. The result is as follows

[INFO] Account Address   : 0xee5fffba2da55a763198e361c7dd627795906ead
3. Use script to generate PKCS12 format private key

Store your account credential

  • Java SDK supports loading via private key string or file, so the private key of the account can be stored in the database or in a local file.

  • Local files support two storage formats, which are PKCS12 encrypted storage and PEM plaintext storage.

  • When developing a service, you can select the storage management of private key according to the actual business scenario.

Load your account credential

Console loads private key file

The console provides the account generation script get_account.sh. The generated account file is in the accounts directory, and the account file loaded by console must be placed in this directory.

The console startup methods are as follows:

./start.sh
./start.sh groupID
./start.sh groupID -pem pemName
./start.sh groupID -p12 p12Name
Default startup

Console randomly generates an account, startup with the group number specified in console configuration file.

./start.sh
Specify group number to startup

Console randomly generates an account, startup with the group number specified on the command line.

./start.sh 2

  • Note: The specified group needs to configure bean in console configuration file.

Use PEM private key file to startup

  • Startup with the account of the specified pem file. Enter the parameters: group number, -pem, and pem file path

./start.sh 1 -pem accounts/0xebb824a1122e587b17701ed2e512d8638dfb9c88.pem
Use PKCS12 private key file to startup

  • Startup with the account of the specified p12 file. Enter the parameters: group number, -p12, and p12 file path

./start.sh 1 -p12 accounts/0x5ef4df1b156bc9f077ee992a283c2dbb0bf045c0.p12

Java SDK loads private file

If the account private key file in PEM or PKCS12 format is generated by the account generation script get_accounts.sh, the account can be used by loading the PEM or PKCS12 account private key file. There are two classes of private keys to be loaded: P12Manager and PEMManager. P12Manager is used to load the private key file in PKCS12 format. PEMManager is used to load the private key file in PEM format.

  • P12Manager usage example: Load p12 key.

// init BcosSDK
BcosSDK sdk =  BcosSDK.build(configFile);
// get Client
Client client = sdk.getClient(Integer.valueOf(1));
// get CryptoSuite
CryptoSuite cryptoSuite = client.getCryptoSuite();
// load p12 key
cryptoSuite.loadAccount("p12", p12AccountFilePath, password);

  • PEMManager usage example:

Load key.

// init BcosSDK
BcosSDK sdk =  BcosSDK.build(configFile);
// get Client
Client client = sdk.getClient(Integer.valueOf(1));
// get CryptoSuite
CryptoSuite cryptoSuite = client.getCryptoSuite();
// load pem key
cryptoSuite.loadAccount("pem", pemAccountFilePath, null);

Account address calculation

The account address of FISCO BCOS is calculated by the ECDSA public key. The hexadecimal of ECDSA public key represents the calculation of keccak-256sum hash, and the hexadecimal of the last 20 bytes of the calculation result is taken as the account address. Each byte requires two hexadecimal to represent, so the length of account address is 40. FISCO BCOS’s account address is compatible with Ethereum.

Note: keccak-256sum is different from SHA3. For details to refer to here.

Ethernet Address Generation

1. generate ECDSA private key

First, we use OpenSSL to generate an elliptic curve private key. The parameters of the elliptic curve are secp256k1. To run the following command to generate a private key in PEM format and save it in the ecprivkey.pem file.

openssl ecparam -name secp256k1 -genkey -noout -out ecprivkey.pem

Execute the following instructions to view the contents of the file.

cat ecprivkey.pem

You can see output similar to the following

-----BEGIN EC PRIVATE KEY-----
MHQCAQEEINHaCmLhw9S9+vD0IOSUd9IhHO9bBVJXTbbBeTyFNvesoAcGBSuBBAAK
oUQDQgAEjSUbQAZn4tzHnsbeahQ2J0AeMu0iNOxpdpyPo3j9Diq3qdljrv07wvjx
zOzLpUNRcJCC5hnU500MD+4+Zxc8zQ==
-----END EC PRIVATE KEY-----

Next, to calculate the public key based on the private key. To execute the following command.

openssl ec -in ecprivkey.pem -text -noout 2>/dev/null| sed -n '7,11p' | tr -d ": \n" | awk '{print substr($0,3);}'

You can get output similar to the following

8d251b400667e2dcc79ec6de6a143627401e32ed2234ec69769c8fa378fd0e2ab7a9d963aefd3bc2f8f1cceccba54351709082e619d4e74d0c0fee3e67173ccd
2. Calculate the address based on the public key

In this section, we calculate the corresponding account address based on the public key. The keccak-256sum tool we need to get is available for download from here.

openssl ec -in ecprivkey.pem -text -noout 2>/dev/null| sed -n '7,11p' | tr -d ": \n" | awk '{print substr($0,3);}' | ./keccak-256sum -x -l | tr -d ' -' | tail -c 41

Get the output similar to the following, which is the calculated account address.

Smart contract development

FISCO BCOS platform currently supports two smart contract forms which are Solidity and pre-compiled.

  • The Solidity contract is the same as Ethereum.

  • The KVTable contract get/set interfacr and Table contract CRUD interface supporting the distributed storage pre-compilation contract in the Solidity contract, which can store the data of Solidtiy contract in the AMDB table structure, realizes the separation of contract logic and data.

  • The precompiled (precompiled) contract is developed in C++ and built into the FISCO BCOS platform. It has better performance than the Solidity contract. Its contract interface that needs to be pre-determined when compiling, is suitable for the scenarios with fixed logic but consensus, such as group configuration. The development of precompiled contracts will be introduced in the next section.

Use KVTable contract get/set interface

Note

  • To make the table created by AMDB accessible to multiple contracts, it should have a unique name that acknowledged globally. So it is unable to create tables with same name within one group on the same chain

  • KVTable added in v2.3.0, the version of chain >= v2.3.0 can use this function.

KVTable contract use key/value type to get/set data of table, code is as follows:

pragma solidity ^0.4.24;

contract KVTableFactory {
    function openTable(string) public view returns (KVTable);
    function createTable(string, string, string) public returns (int256);
}

//one record
contract Entry {
    function getInt(string) public constant returns (int256);
    function getUInt(string) public constant returns (uint256);
    function getAddress(string) public constant returns (address);
    function getBytes64(string) public constant returns (bytes1[64]);
    function getBytes32(string) public constant returns (bytes32);
    function getString(string) public constant returns (string);

    function set(string, int256) public;
    function set(string, uint256) public;
    function set(string, string) public;
    function set(string, address) public;
}

//KVTable per permiary key has only one Entry
contract KVTable {
    function get(string) public view returns (bool, Entry);
    function set(string, Entry) public returns (int256);
    function newEntry() public view returns (Entry);
}

Offer a use case of KVTableTest.sol，code is as follows:

pragma solidity ^0.4.24;
import "./Table.sol";

contract KVTableTest {
    event SetResult(int256 count);

    KVTableFactory tableFactory;
    string constant TABLE_NAME = "t_kvtest";

    constructor() public {
        //The fixed address is 0x1010 for KVTableFactory
        tableFactory = KVTableFactory(0x1010);
        // the parameters of createTable are tableName,keyField,"vlaueFiled1,vlaueFiled2,vlaueFiled3,..."
        tableFactory.createTable(TABLE_NAME, "id", "item_price,item_name");
    }

    //get record
    function get(string id) public view returns (bool, int256, string) {
        KVTable table = tableFactory.openTable(TABLE_NAME);
        bool ok = false;
        Entry entry;
        (ok, entry) = table.get(id);
        int256 item_price;
        string memory item_name;
        if (ok) {
            item_price = entry.getInt("item_price");
            item_name = entry.getString("item_name");
        }
        return (ok, item_price, item_name);
    }

    //set record
    function set(string id, int256 item_price, string item_name)
        public
        returns (int256)
    {
        KVTable table = tableFactory.openTable(TABLE_NAME);
        Entry entry = table.newEntry();
        // the length of entry's field value should < 16MB
        entry.set("id", id);
        entry.set("item_price", item_price);
        entry.set("item_name", item_name);
        // the first parameter length of set should <= 255B
        int256 count = table.set(id, entry);
        emit SetResult(count);
        return count;
    }
}

KVTableTest.sol calls KVTable contract to create a user table t_kvtest. The table structure of t_kvtestis as follows. This table records the materials in a company’s warehouse, takes the unique material id as the key, and saves the name and price of the materials.

id* item_name item_price
100010001001 Laptop 6000

To use Table contract CRUD interface

Accessing AMDB requires using the AMDB-specific smart contract interface Table.sol which is a database contract that can create tables and add, delete, and modify the tables.

Note

To make the table created by AMDB accessible to multiple contracts, it should have a unique name that acknowledged globally. So it is unable to create tables with same name within one group on the same chain. The CRUD interface of Table contract can have multiple records under a key. When it is used, it will perform batch data operations, including batch writing and range query. For this feature, it is recommended to use MySQL as the back-end database. When using the get/set interface of KVTable, it is recommended to use rocksdb as the back-end database. Because rocksdb is a non relational database stored in key value, the single key operation efficiency is higher when using KVTable interface.

Table.sol file code is as follows:

pragma solidity ^0.4.24;

contract TableFactory {
    function openTable(string) public constant returns (Table);  // open table
    function createTable(string,string,string) public returns(int);  // create table
}

// inquiry conditions
contract Condition {
    //equal to
    function EQ(string, int) public;
    function EQ(string, string) public;

    //unequal to
    function NE(string, int) public;
    function NE(string, string)  public;

    //greater than
    function GT(string, int) public;
    //greater than or equal to
    function GE(string, int) public;

    //smaller than
    function LT(string, int) public;
    //smaller than or equal to
    function LE(string, int) public;

    //limit the number of return record
    function limit(int) public;
    function limit(int, int) public;
}

// single entry data record
contract Entry {
    function getInt(string) public constant returns(int);
    function getAddress(string) public constant returns(address);
    function getBytes64(string) public constant returns(byte[64]);
    function getBytes32(string) public constant returns(bytes32);
    function getString(string) public constant returns(string);

    function set(string, int) public;
    function set(string, string) public;
    function set(string, address) public;
}

// data record set
contract Entries {
    function get(int) public constant returns(Entry);
    function size() public constant returns(int);
}

// Table main type
contract Table {
    // select interface
    function select(string, Condition) public constant returns(Entries);
    // insert interface
    function insert(string, Entry) public returns(int);
    // update interface
    function update(string, Entry, Condition) public returns(int);
    // remove interface
    function remove(string, Condition) public returns(int);

    function newEntry() public constant returns(Entry);
    function newCondition() public constant returns(Condition);
}

Note

  • The type of key in insert, remove, update and select functions of Table contract is string, and the maximum length is 255 characters

  • The key type of the get/set interface of the Entry is string, with the maximum length of 255 characters. The types supported by value are int256 (int), address and string, of which string cannot exceed 16MB.

To provide a contract case TableTest.sol. The code is as follows:

pragma solidity >=0.6.10 <0.8.20;
pragma experimental ABIEncoderV2;

import "./Table.sol";

contract TableTest {
    event CreateResult(int256 count);
    event InsertResult(int256 count);
    event UpdateResult(int256 count);
    event RemoveResult(int256 count);

    TableFactory tableFactory;
    string constant TABLE_NAME = "t_test";
    constructor() public {
        tableFactory = TableFactory(0x1001); //The fixed address is 0x1001 for TableFactory
        // the parameters of createTable are tableName,keyField,"vlaueFiled1,vlaueFiled2,vlaueFiled3,..."
        tableFactory.createTable(TABLE_NAME, "name", "item_id,item_name");
    }

    //select records
    function select(string memory name)
    public
    view
    returns (string[] memory, int256[] memory, string[] memory)
    {
        Table table = tableFactory.openTable(TABLE_NAME);

        Condition condition = table.newCondition();

        Entries entries = table.select(name, condition);
        string[] memory user_name_bytes_list = new string[](
            uint256(entries.size())
        );
        int256[] memory item_id_list = new int256[](uint256(entries.size()));
        string[] memory item_name_bytes_list = new string[](
            uint256(entries.size())
        );

        for (int256 i = 0; i < entries.size(); ++i) {
            Entry entry = entries.get(i);

            user_name_bytes_list[uint256(i)] = entry.getString("name");
            item_id_list[uint256(i)] = entry.getInt("item_id");
            item_name_bytes_list[uint256(i)] = entry.getString("item_name");
        }

        return (user_name_bytes_list, item_id_list, item_name_bytes_list);
    }
    //insert records
    function insert(string memory name, int256 item_id, string memory item_name)
    public
    returns (int256)
    {
        Table table = tableFactory.openTable(TABLE_NAME);

        Entry entry = table.newEntry();
        entry.set("name", name);
        entry.set("item_id", item_id);
        entry.set("item_name", item_name);

        int256 count = table.insert(name, entry);
        emit InsertResult(count);

        return count;
    }
    //update records
    function update(string memory name, int256 item_id, string memory item_name)
    public
    returns (int256)
    {
        Table table = tableFactory.openTable(TABLE_NAME);

        Entry entry = table.newEntry();
        entry.set("item_name", item_name);

        Condition condition = table.newCondition();
        condition.EQ("name", name);
        condition.EQ("item_id", item_id);

        int256 count = table.update(name, entry, condition);
        emit UpdateResult(count);

        return count;
    }
    //remove records
    function remove(string memory name, int256 item_id) public returns (int256) {
        Table table = tableFactory.openTable(TABLE_NAME);

        Condition condition = table.newCondition();
        condition.EQ("name", name);
        condition.EQ("item_id", item_id);

        int256 count = table.remove(name, condition);
        emit RemoveResult(count);

        return count;
    }
}

TableTest.sol has called the intelligent contract Table.sol of AMDB, which implements creating the user table t_test and the functions of adding, deleting and changing t_test. The t_test table is structured as follows. This table records the item and item’s numbers used by a employees.

name* item_name item_id
Bob Laptop 100010001001

The client requiring to call the contract code which is converted to Java file, needs to put TableTest.sol and Table.sol into the directory contracts/solidity, and TableTest.java is generated by the compile script of sol2java.sh.

Precompiled contract development

1. Introduction

Precompiled contract is a natively supported feature of Ethereum: a contract that uses C++ code to implement specific functions at the underlying platform for EVM module calling. FISCO BCOS inherits and extends this feature, and has developed a powerful and easy-to-expand framework on this basis of it.precompiled design principle.

This article is an introductory to guide users on how to implement their own precompiled contracts and how to call them.

2. Implement precompiled contracts
2.1 Process

The process of implementing a pre-compiled contract:

  • assign contract address

For calling a solid contract or pre-compiled contract, you need to distinguish it by the contract address and address space.

address use address range
ethereum precompiled 0x0001-0x0008
reserve 0x0008-0x0fff
FISCO BCOS precompiled 0x1000-0x1006
FISCO BCOS reserve 0x1007-0x5000
user assigned interval 0x5001 - 0xffff
CRUD reserve 0x10000+
solidity others

The address range of user assigned interval is 0x5001-0xffff. Users needs to assign an unused address to the new precompiled contract. The precompiled contract addresses must be unique and not conflicting.

List of precompiled contracts and address assignments implemented in FISCO BCOS:

address feature source code (libprecompiled directory)
0x1000 system parameter management SystemConfigPrecompiled.cpp
0x1001 table factory contract TableFactoryPrecompiled.cpp
0x1002 CRUD operation implementation CRUDPrecompiled.cpp
0x1003 consensus node management ConsensusPrecompiled.cpp
0x1004 CNS feature CNSPrecompiled.cpp
0x1005 storage table authority management AuthorityPrecompiled.cpp
0x1006 parallel contract configuration ParallelConfigPrecompiled.cpp

  • define contract interface

It is similar to solidity contract. When designing a contract, you need to determine the ABI interface of the contract first. The ABI interface rules of the precompiled contract are exactly the same as the solidity. solidity ABI link.

When defining a precompiled contract interface, you usually need to define a solidity contract with the same interface, and empty the function body of all interfaces. This contract is called interface contract of the precompiled contract. The interface contract need to be used when calling the precompiled contract.

    pragma solidity ^0.4.24;
    contract Contract_Name {
        function interface0(parameters ... ) {}
        ....
        function interfaceN(parameters ... ) {}
    }

  • design storage structure

When a precompiled contract involves a storage operation, it needs to determine the stored table information (table name and table structure. The stored data will be uniformly abstracted into a table structure in FISCO BCOS)storage structure.

Note

This process can be omitted without involving a storage operation.

  • implement contract logic

For implementing the calling logic of the new contract, you need to implement a new C++ class that needs to inherit [precompiled] (https://github.com/FISCO-BCOS/FISCO-BCOS/blob/master-2.0/libprecompiled/Precompiled.h) #L37 ) to overload the call function for achieving the calling behaviour of each interface.

    // libprecompiled/Precompiled.h
    class Precompiled
    {
        virtual bytes call(std::shared_ptr<ExecutiveContext> _context, bytesConstRef _param,
            Address const& _origin = Address()) = 0;
    };

The call function has three parameters:

std::shared_ptr<ExecutiveContext> _context : the context for the transaction execution saving

bytesConstRef _param : calling the parameter information of the contract. The calling corresponding contract interface and the parameters of interface can be obtained from _param parsing.

Address const& _origin : transaction sender for permission control

How to implement a Precompiled class will be detailed in the sample below.

  • register contract

Finally, the contract address and the corresponding class need to be registered to the execution context of the contract, so that the execution logic of the contract can be correctly recognized when the precompiled contract is called by the address. To view the registered pre-compiled contract list.

Registration path:

    file        libblockverifier/ExecutiveContextFactory.cpp
    function    initExecutiveContext
2.2 sample contract development
// HelloWorld.sol
pragma solidity ^0.4.24;

contract HelloWorld{
    string name;

    function HelloWorld(){
       name = "Hello, World!";
    }

    function get()constant returns(string){
        return name;
    }

    function set(string n){
    	name = n;
    }
}

The above source code is the HelloWorld contract written by solidity. This chapter will implement a precompiled contract with the same function to enable user step by step to have an visual understanding to the precompiled contract. sample c++source code path:

    libprecompiled/extension/HelloWorldPrecompiled.h
    libprecompiled/extension/HelloWorldPrecompiled.cpp
2.2.1 assign contract address

Referring to the address range, the address of the HelloWorld precompiled contract is assigned as:

0x5001
2.2.2 define contract interface

We need to implement the HelloWorld contract function. The interface is the same as the HelloWorld interface. HelloWorldPrecompiled interface contract:

pragma solidity ^0.4.24;

contract HelloWorldPrecompiled {
    function get() public constant returns(string) {}
    function set(string _m) {}
}
2.2.3 design storage structure

HelloWorldPrecompiled needs to store the string value of the set, so when it comes to storage operations, you need to design the stored table structure.

table name: _ext_hello_world_

table structure:

key value
hello_key hello_value

The table stores only a pair of key-value pairs. The key field is hello_key and the value field is hello_value. For storing the corresponding string value, it can be modified by the set(string) interface and obtained by the get() interface.

2.2.4 implement call logic

To add the HelloWorldPrecompiled class, overload the call function, and implement the calling behavior of all interfaces.call function source code.

The user-defined Precompiled contract needs to add a new class for defining the calling behaviour of the contract in the class. In the example, for adding the HelloWorldPrecompiled class, the following work must complete:

  • interface registration

// define all interfaces in the class
const char* const HELLO_WORLD_METHOD_GET = "get()";
const char* const HELLO_WORLD_METHOD_SET = "set(string)";

// register interface in the constructor
HelloWorldPrecompiled::HelloWorldPrecompiled()
{
    // name2Selector is a member of the Base class Precompiled, which saves the mapping relationship of the interface call.
    name2Selector[HELLO_WORLD_METHOD_GET] = getFuncSelector(HELLO_WORLD_METHOD_GET);
    name2Selector[HELLO_WORLD_METHOD_SET] = getFuncSelector(HELLO_WORLD_METHOD_SET);
}

  • table creation

define the table’s name and field structure

// define the name
const std::string HELLO_WORLD_TABLE_NAME = "_ext_hello_world_";
// define the key field
const std::string HELLOWORLD_KEY_FIELD = "key";
// "field0,field1,field2" define other fields, multiple fields separated by commas, such as "field0,field1,field2"
const std::string HELLOWORLD_VALUE_FIELD = "value";

// In the call function, the table is opened when it exists, otherwise the table is created first.
Table::Ptr table = openTable(_context, HELLO_WORLD_TABLE_NAME);
if (!table)
{
    //  table is created while it does not exist
    table = createTable(_context, HELLO_WORLD_TABLE_NAME, HELLOWORLD_KEY_FIELD,
        HELLOWORLD_VALUE_FIELD, _origin);
    if (!table)
    {
        //  fail to create and return false
    }
}

After getting the operation handle of the table, user can implement the specific logic of the table operation.

  • call interface distinguishing

Parsing _param with getParamFunc can distinguish the call interface.

Note: the contract interface must be registered in the constructor

uint32_t func = getParamFunc(_param);
if (func == name2Selector[HELLO_WORLD_METHOD_GET])
{
    // get() call interface logic
}
else if (func == name2Selector[HELLO_WORLD_METHOD_SET])
{
    // set(string) call interface logic
}
else
{
    // unknown interface, call error, return error
}

  • Parameter parsing and result return

The parameters during calling the contract are included in the _param parameter of the call function. They are encoded according to the Solidity ABI format. The dev::eth::ContractABI utility class can be used to parse the parameters. Similarly, when the interface returns, the return value also needs to be encoded according to the format. Solidity ABI。

In dev::eth::ContractABI class, we need to use two interfaces abiIn abiOut. The former serializes the former user parameter and the latter can parse the parameter from the serialized data.

// to serialize ABI data. c++ type data serialized to the format used by evm
// _id: The corresponding string of the function interface declaration, which generally default to ""
template <class... T> bytes abiIn(std::string _id, T const&... _t)
// to parse serialized data into c++ type data
template <class... T> void  abiOut(bytesConstRef _data, T&... _t)

The sample code below shows how the interface works:

// for transfer interface: transfer(string,string,uint256)

// Parameter1
std::string str1 = "fromAccount";
// Parameter12
std::string str2 = "toAccount";
// Parameter13
uint256 transferAmoumt = 11111;

dev::eth::ContractABI abi;
// serialization, abiIn first string parameter default to ""
bytes out = abi.abiIn("", str1, str2, transferAmoumt);

std::string strOut1;
std::string strOut2;
uint256 amoumt;

// parse parameter
abi.abiOut(out, strOut1, strOut2, amount);
// parse after
// strOut1 = "fromAccount";
// strOut2 = "toAccount"
// amoumt = 11111

Finally, the HelloWorldPrecompiled call function is implemented completely.source code link.

bytes HelloWorldPrecompiled::call(dev::blockverifier::ExecutiveContext::Ptr _context,
    bytesConstRef _param, Address const& _origin)
{
    // parse function interface
    uint32_t func = getParamFunc(_param);
    //
    bytesConstRef data = getParamData(_param);
    bytes out;
    dev::eth::ContractABI abi;

    // open table
    Table::Ptr table = openTable(_context, HELLO_WORLD_TABLE_NAME);
    if (!table)
    {
        // table is created while it does not exist
        table = createTable(_context, HELLO_WORLD_TABLE_NAME, HELLOWORLD_KEY_FIELD,
            HELLOWORLD_VALUE_FIELD, _origin);
        if (!table)
        {
            // fail to create table. no authority?
            out = abi.abiIn("", CODE_NO_AUTHORIZED);
            return out;
        }
    }

    // to distinguish the calling interface and specify the calling logic of each interface
    if (func == name2Selector[HELLO_WORLD_METHOD_GET])
    {  // get() call interface
        // default to return value
        std::string retValue = "Hello World!";
        auto entries = table->select(HELLOWORLD_KEY_FIELD_NAME, table->newCondition());
        if (0u != entries->size())
        {
            auto entry = entries->get(0);
            retValue = entry->getField(HELLOWORLD_VALUE_FIELD);
        }
        out = abi.abiIn("", retValue);
    }
    else if (func == name2Selector[HELLO_WORLD_METHOD_SET])
    {  // set(string) call interface

        std::string strValue;
        abi.abiOut(data, strValue);
        auto entries = table->select(HELLOWORLD_KEY_FIELD_NAME, table->newCondition());
        auto entry = table->newEntry();
        entry->setField(HELLOWORLD_KEY_FIELD, HELLOWORLD_KEY_FIELD_NAME);
        entry->setField(HELLOWORLD_VALUE_FIELD, strValue);

        int count = 0;
        if (0u != entries->size())
        {  // value exists, update
            count = table->update(HELLOWORLD_KEY_FIELD_NAME, entry, table->newCondition(),
                std::make_shared<AccessOptions>(_origin));
        }
        else
        {  // value does not exist, insert
            count = table->insert(
                HELLOWORLD_KEY_FIELD_NAME, entry, std::make_shared<AccessOptions>(_origin));
        }

        if (count == CODE_NO_AUTHORIZED)
        {  // no table operation authority
            PRECOMPILED_LOG(ERROR) << LOG_BADGE("HelloWorldPrecompiled") << LOG_DESC("set")
                                   << LOG_DESC("non-authorized");
        }
        out = abi.abiIn("", u256(count));
    }
    else
    {  // parameter error, unknown calling interface
        PRECOMPILED_LOG(ERROR) << LOG_BADGE("HelloWorldPrecompiled") << LOG_DESC(" unknown func ")
                               << LOG_KV("func", func);
        out = abi.abiIn("", u256(CODE_UNKNOW_FUNCTION_CALL));
    }

    return out;
}
2.2.5 Register contract and compile source code

  • Register Precompiled contract. Modify FISCO-BCOS/cmake/templates/UserPrecompiled.h.in, register the address of HelloWorldPrecompiled contract in its below function. Default to be existed, and revoke annotation.

void dev::blockverifier::ExecutiveContextFactory::registerUserPrecompiled(dev::blockverifier::ExecutiveContext::Ptr context)
{
    // Address should in [0x5001,0xffff]
    context->setAddress2Precompiled(Address(0x5001), std::make_shared<dev::precompiled::HelloWorldPrecompiled>());
}

  • Compile source code. Please read here to install dependencies and compile source code.

Note：The implemented HelloWorldPrecompiled.cpp and header files should be placed under FISCO-BCOS/libprecompiled/extension directory.

  • Build FISCO BCOS consortium blockchain Given that it is stored under FISCO-BCOS/build directory, use the following instruction to build chain for node 4. For more options please read here.

bash ../manual/build_chain.sh -l 127.0.0.1:4 -e bin/fisco-bcos
3 Calling

From the user’s viewing, the pre-compiled contract is basically the same as the solidity contract. The only difference is the solidity contract can obtain the contracted address after deployment while the per-compiled contract can be used directly without deployment because of the pre-compiled contract address is pre-allocated.

3.1 Call HelloWorld precompiled contract using console

Create HelloWorldPrecompiled.sol file under console contracts/solidity with the content of interface declaration:

pragma solidity ^0.4.24;
contract HelloWorldPrecompiled{
    function get() public constant returns(string);
    function set(string n);
}

After the nodes are built by compiled binaries, deploy console v1.0.2 and above version and execute the following statement to call contract: _images/call_helloworld.png

3.2 Call solidity

Now, we try to create precompiled contract object and call its interface in Solidity contract. Create HelloWorldHelper.sol file in console contracts/solidity with the following content:

pragma solidity ^0.4.24;
import "./HelloWorldPrecompiled.sol";

contract HelloWorldHelper {
    HelloWorldPrecompiled hello;
    function HelloWorldHelper() {
        // call HelloWorld precompiled contract
        hello = HelloWorldPrecompiled(0x5001);
    }
    function get() public constant returns(string) {
        return hello.get();
    }
    function set(string m) {
        hello.set(m);
    }
}

Deploy HelloWorldHelper contract and call the interface of HelloWorldHelper contract, you will get the following result: _images/call_helloworldHelper.png

AMOP

Introduction

Advanced Messages Onchain Protocol (AMOP) aims to provide a secure and efficient message channel for alliance chain. Each agency in the alliance chain can use AMOP to communicate as long as they deploy blockchain nodes, whether they are Sealer or Observer. AMOP has the following advantages:

  • Real-time: AMOP messages do not rely on blockchain transactions and consensus. Messages are transmitted in real time among nodes with a milliseconds delay.

  • Reliability: When AMOP message is transmitting, it can automatically search all feasible link in blockchain network for communication. As long as at least one link is available, the message is guaranteed to be reachable.

  • Efficiency: The AMOP message has simple structure and efficient processing logic. AMOP message’s simple structure and efficient processing logic makes it to fully utilize network bandwidth and require a small amount of CPU usage only.

  • Security: All communication links of AMOP use SSL encryption. The encryption algorithm is configurable,and the topic supports identity authentication mechanism.

  • Easy to use: No additional configuration is required in SDK when using AMOP.

Logical architecture

_images/AMOP.jpg We take the typical IDC architecture of the bank as the example to overview each region:

  • SF region: The business service region inside the agency. The business subsystem in this region uses blockchain SDK. the configured SDK connects to the blockchain node.

  • Blockchain P2P network: This is a logical region and deployed blockchain nodes of each agency. Blockchain nodes can also be deployed inside the agency.

Configuration

AMOP does not require any additional configuration. The following is a configuration case for [Java SDK]] (./../configuration.md) . SDK configuration（Spring Bean）：

SDK uses

AMOP’s messaging is based on the topic mechanism. A topic is set in a server first. When a client sends a message to the topic, the server can receive soon. AMOP supports multiple topic for messaging in the same blockchain network. Topic supports any number of servers and clients. When multiple servers follow on the same topic, the topic messages are randomly sent to one of available servers.

Server code:

package org.fisco.bcos.channel.test.amop;

import org.fisco.bcos.channel.client.Service;
import org.slf4j.Logger;
import org.slf4j.LoggerFactory;
import org.springframework.context.ApplicationContext;
import org.springframework.context.support.ClassPathXmlApplicationContext;

import java.util.HashSet;
import java.util.Set;

public class Channel2Server {
    static Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(Channel2Server.class);

    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        if (args.length < 1) {
          System.out.println("Param: topic");
          return;
        }

        String topic = args[0];

        logger.debug("init Server");

        ApplicationContext context = new ClassPathXmlApplicationContext("classpath:applicationContext.xml");
        Service service = context.getBean(Service.class);

        // set topic to support multiple topic
        Set<String> topics = new HashSet<String>();
        topics.add(topic);
        service.setTopics(topics);

        // PushCallback class, is used to handles messages. see the Callback code.
        PushCallback cb = new PushCallback();
        service.setPushCallback(cb);

        System.out.println("3s...");

        System.out.println("===================================================================");
        
        // launch service
        service.run();

        ChannelResponse response = new ChannelResponse();
        response.setContent("receive request seq:" + String.valueOf(push.getMessageID()));
        response.setErrorCode(0);

        push.sendResponse(response);
    }
}

                + ", ErrorCode:" + response.getErrorCode() + ", Content:" + response.getContent());
        }
    }
}

Test

After completing the configuration as described above, user can specify a topic: topic and execute the following two commands for testing.

Unicast text

Launch AMOP server:

java -cp 'conf/:apps/*:lib/*' org.fisco.bcos.channel.test.amop.Channel2Server [topic]

Launch AMOP client:

java -cp 'conf/:apps/*:lib/*' org.fisco.bcos.channel.test.amop.Channel2Client [topic] [Number of messages]

In addition to supporting unicast text, AMOP also supports sending binary data, multicast, and authentication mechanisms. The corresponding test commands are as follows:

Unicast binary，multicast text，multicast binary

Launch AMOP server:

java -cp 'conf/:apps/*:lib/*' org.fisco.bcos.channel.test.amop.Channel2Server [topic]

Launch AMOP client:

#unicast binary
java -cp 'conf/:apps/*:lib/*' org.fisco.bcos.channel.test.amop.Channel2ClientBin [topic] [filename]
#multicast text
java -cp 'conf/:lib/*:apps/*' org.fisco.bcos.channel.test.amop.Channel2ClientMulti [topic]  [Number of messages]
#multicast binary
java -cp 'conf/:lib/*:apps/*' org.fisco.bcos.channel.test.amop.Channel2ClientMultiBin [topic]  [filename]
Unicast text and binary,multicast text and binary with authentication mechanisms

Launch AMOP server:

java -cp 'conf/:apps/*:lib/*' org.fisco.bcos.channel.test.amop.Channel2ServerNeedVerify [topic]

启动AMOP客户端：

#Unicast text with authentication mechanisms
java -cp 'conf/:apps/*:lib/*' org.fisco.bcos.channel.test.amop.Channel2ClientNeedVerify [topic] [Number of messages]
#Unicast binary with authentication mechanisms
java -cp 'conf/:apps/*:lib/*' org.fisco.bcos.channel.test.amop.Channel2ClientBinNeedVerify [topic] [filename]
#multicast text with authentication mechanisms
java -cp 'conf/:lib/*:apps/*' org.fisco.bcos.channel.test.amop.Channel2ClientMultiNeedVerify [topic]  [Number of messages]
#multicast binary with authentication mechanisms
java -cp 'conf/:lib/*:apps/*' org.fisco.bcos.channel.test.amop.Channel2ClientMultiBinNeedVerify [topic]  [filename]

Error code

  • 99:message failed to be sent. After AMOP attempts to send message by all the links, the message is not sent to the server. It is recommended to use seq that is generated during the transmission to check the processing status of each node on the link.

  • 100：message failed to be sent. After AMOP attempts to send message by all the links, the message is not sent to the node from one node by P2P. It is recommended to use seq that is generated during the transmission to check the processing status of each node on the link.

  • 101：message failed to be sent. After AMOP attempts to send message by all the links, the message is not sent to the sdk from node. It is recommended to use seq that is generated during the transmission to check the processing status of each node on the link.

  • 102: message times out. It is recommended to check whether the server has processed the message correctly and the bandwidth is sufficient.

  • 103: Due to the bandwidth limitation of the node, the AMOP request from the SDK to the node was rejected.

Parallel contract

FISCO BCOS provides development structure for parallel contract. Contract developed under the structure regulation can be parallelly executed by nodes of FISCO BCOS. The advantages of parallel contract include:

  • high TPS: multiple independent transaction being executed at the same time can utilize the CPU resources to the most extent and reach high TPS

  • scalable: improve the performance of transaction execution with better configuration of machine to support expansion of applications

The following context will introduce how to compile, deploy and execute FISCO BCOS parallel contract.

Basic knowledge

Parallel exclusion

Whether two transactions can be executed in parallel depends on whether they are mutually exclusive. By exclusive, it means the two transactions have intersection in their contract storage variables collection.

Taking payment transfer as an example, it involves transactions of payment transfer between users. Use transfer(X, Y) to represent the access of user X to user Y. The exclusion is as below.

transaction exclusive object intersection exclusive or not
transfer(A, B) and transfer(A, C) [A, B] and [A, C] [A] exclusive, cannot be executed parallelly
transfer(A, B) and transfer(B, C) [A, B] and [B, C] [B] exclusive, cannot be executed parallelly
transfer(A, C) and transfer(B, C) [A, C] and [B, C] [C] exclusive, cannot be executed parallelly
transfer(A, B) and transfer(A, B) [A, B] and [A, B] [A, B] exclusive, cannot be executed parallelly
transfer(A, B) and transfer(C, D) [A, B] and [C, D] no non-exclusive, can be executed parallelly

Here are detailed definitions:

  • exclusive parameter：parameter that is related to “read/write” of contract storage variable in contract interface. Such as the interface of payment transfer transfer(X, Y), in which X and Y are exclusive parameters.

  • exclusive object：the exclusive content extracted from exclusive parameters. Such as the payment transfer interface transfer(X, Y). In a transaction that calls the interface, the parameter is transfer(A, B), then the exclusive object is [A, B]; for another transaction that calls parameter transfer(A, C), the exclusive object is [A, C].

To judge whether 2 transactions at the same moment can be executed in parallel depends on whether there is intersection between their exclusive objects. Transaction without intersection can be executed in parallel.

Compile parallel contract

FISCO BCOS provides parallel contract development structure. Developers only need to adhere to its regulation and define the exclusive parameter of each contract interface so as to realize parallelly executed contract. When contract is deployed, FISCO BCOS will auto-analyze exclusive object before the transaction is excuted to make non-dependent transaction execute in parallel as much as possible.

So far, FISCO BCOS offers two types of parallel contract development structure: solidity and Precompiled contract.

Solidity development structure

Parallel solidity contract shares the same development process with regular solidity contract: make ParallelContract as the base class of the parallel contract and call registerParallelFunction() to register the interface. （ParallelContract.sol can be found at here）

Here is a complete example of how ParallelOk contract realize parallel payment transfer

pragma solidity ^0.4.25;

import "./ParallelContract.sol";  // import ParallelContract.sol

contract ParallelOk is ParallelContract // make ParallelContract as the base class
{
    // contract realization
    mapping (string => uint256) _balance;

    function transfer(string from, string to, uint256 num) public
    {
        // here is a simple example, please use SafeMath instead of "+/-" in real production
        _balance[from] -= num;
        _balance[to] += num;
    }

    function set(string name, uint256 num) public
    {
        _balance[name] = num;
    }

    function balanceOf(string name) public view returns (uint256)
    {
        return _balance[name];
    }

    // register parallel contract interface
    function enableParallel() public
    {
        // function defined character string (no blank space behind ","), the former part of parameter constitutes exclusive parameter (which should be put ahead when designing function)
        registerParallelFunction("transfer(string,string,uint256)", 2); // critical: string string
        registerParallelFunction("set(string,uint256)", 1); // critical: string
    }

    // revoke parallel contract interface
    function disableParallel() public
    {
        unregisterParallelFunction("transfer(string,string,uint256)");
        unregisterParallelFunction("set(string,uint256)");
    }
}

The detail steps are:

（1）make ParallelContract as the base class of contract

pragma solidity ^0.4.25;

import "./ParallelContract.sol"; // import ParallelContract.sol

contract ParallelOk is ParallelContract // make ParallelContract as the base class
{
   // contract realization

   // register parallel contract interface
   function enableParallel() public;

   // revoke parallel contract interface
   function disableParallel() public;
}

（2）Compile parallel contract interface

Public function in contract is the interface of contract. To compile a parallel contract interface is to realize the public function of a contract according to certain rules.

Confirm whether the interface is parallelable

A parallelable contract interface has to meet following conditions:

  • no call of external contract

  • no call of other function interface

Confirm exclusive parameter

Before compiling interface, please confirm the exclusive parameter of interface. The exclusion of interface is the exclusion of global variables. The confirmation of exclusive parameter has following rules:

  • the interface accessed global mapping, the key of mapping is the exclusive parameter

  • the interface accessed global arrays, the subscript of a array is the exclusive parameter

  • the interface accessed simple type of global variables, all the simple type global variables share one exclusive parameter and use different variable names as the exclusive objects.

For example: If setA(int x)writes globalA, we need to declare it as setA(string aflag, int x) and call it like setA("globalA", 10) by using globalA to declare the exclusive object.

Confirm parameter type and sequence

After the exclusive parameter is confirmed, confirm parameter type and sequence according to following rules:

  • interface parameter is limited to: string、address、uint256、int256 (more types coming in the future)

  • exclusive parameter should all be contained in interface parameter

  • all exclusive should be put in the beginning of the interface parameter

mapping (string => uint256) _balance; // global mapping

// exclusive variable from, to are put at the beginning of transfer()
function transfer(string from, string to, uint256 num) public
{
    _balance[from] -= num;  // from is the key of global mapping, the exclusive parameter
    _balance[to] += num; // to is the key of global mapping, the exclusive parameter
}

// the exclusive variable name is put at the beginning of the parameter of set()
function set(string name, uint256 num) public
{
    _balance[name] = num;
}

（3）Register parallelable contract interface

Implement enableParallel() function in contract, call registerParallelFunction() to register parallelable contract interface, and implement disableParallel() function to endow the contract with ability to revoke parallel execution.

// register parallelable contract interface
function enableParallel() public
{
    // function defined character string (no blank space behind ","), the parameter starts with exclusive parameters
    registerParallelFunction("transfer(string,string,uint256)", 2); // transfer interface, the former 2 is exclusive parameter
    registerParallelFunction("set(string,uint256)", 1); // set interface, the first 1 is exclusive parameter
}  

// revoke parallel contract interface
function disableParallel() public
{
    unregisterParallelFunction("transfer(string,string,uint256)");
    unregisterParallelFunction("set(string,uint256)");
}

（4）Deploy/execute parallel contract

Please refer to here for the console manual for version 2.6 and above, and here for the console manual for version 1.x. Here we use console as an example.

deploy contract

[group:1]> deploy ParallelOk.sol

call enableParallel() interface to make ParallelOk executed parallelly

[group:1]> call ParallelOk.sol 0x8c17cf316c1063ab6c89df875e96c9f0f5b2f744 enableParallel

send parallel transaction set()

[group:1]> call ParallelOk.sol 0x8c17cf316c1063ab6c89df875e96c9f0f5b2f744 set "jimmyshi" 100000

send parallel transaction transfer()

[group:1]> call ParallelOk.sol 0x8c17cf316c1063ab6c89df875e96c9f0f5b2f744 transfer "jimmyshi" "jinny" 80000

check transaction execution result balanceOf()

[group:1]> call ParallelOk.sol 0x8c17cf316c1063ab6c89df875e96c9f0f5b2f744 balanceOf "jinny"
80000

The following context contains an example to send massive transaction through SDK.

Precompile parallel contract structure

Parallel precompiled contract has the same compilation and development process with regular precompiled contract. Regular precompiled contract uses Precompile as the base class to implement contract logical. Based on this, Precompile base class offers 2 virtual functions for parallel to enable implementation of parallel precompiled contract.

（1）Define the contract as parallel contract

bool isParallelPrecompiled() override { return true; }

（2）Define parallel interface and exclusive parameter

It needs attention that once contract is defined parallelable, all interfaces need to be defined. If an interface is returned with null, it has no exclusive object. Exclusive parameter is related to the implementation of precompiled contract, which needs understanding of FISCO BCOS storage. You can read the codes or consult experienced programmer for implementation details.

// take out exclusive object from parallel interface parameter, return exclusive object
std::vector<std::string> getParallelTag(bytesConstRef param) override
{
    // get the func and data to be called
    uint32_t func = getParamFunc(param);
    bytesConstRef data = getParamData(param);

    std::vector<std::string> results;
    if (func == name2Selector[DAG_TRANSFER_METHOD_TRS_STR2_UINT]) // function is parallel interface
    {  
        // interfaces：userTransfer(string,string,uint256)
        // take out exclusive object from data
        std::string fromUser, toUser;
        dev::u256 amount;
        abi.abiOut(data, fromUser, toUser, amount);

        if (!invalidUserName(fromUser) && !invalidUserName(toUser) && (amount > 0))
        {
            // write results to exclusive object
            results.push_back(fromUser);
            results.push_back(toUser);
        }
    }
    else if ... // all interfaces needs to offer exclusive object, returning null means no exclusive object

 	return results;  //return exclusion
}

（3）Compile, restart node

To manually compile nodes please check here

After compilation, close node and replace with the original node binaries, and restart node.

Example: parallel payment transfer

Here gives 2 parallel examples of solidity contract and precompiled contract.

Config environment

The execution environment in this case:

  • java-sdk-demo client end

  • a FISCO BCOS chain

java-sdk-demo is to send parallel transaction, FISCO BCOS chain is to execute parallel transaction. The related configuration are:

For pressure test on maximum performance, it at least needs:

  • 3 java-sdk-demo to generate enough transactions

  • 4 nodes, all java-sdk-demo are configured with all information of nodes on chain to send transaction evenly to each node so that the chain can receive enough transaction

Parallel Solidity contract: ParallelOk

Payment transfer based on account model is a typical operation. ParallelOk contract is an example of account model and is capable of parallel transfer. The ParallelOk contract is given in former context.

FISCO BCOS has built-in ParallelOk contract in java-sdk-demo. Here is the operation method to send massive parallel transactions through java-sdk-demo.

（1）Deploy contract, create new user, activate parallel contract through SDK

# java -cp 'conf/:lib/*:apps/*' org.fisco.bcos.sdk.demo.perf.ParallelOkPerf [precompiled] [groupID] [add] [count] [tps] [file]
java -cp conf/:lib/*:apps/* org.fisco.bcos.sdk.demo.perf.ParallelOkPerf precompiled 1 add 10000 2500 user
# 在group1上创建了 10000个用户，创建操作以2500TPS发送的，生成的用户信息保存在user中

After executed, ParallelOk contract will be deployed to blockchain, the created user information is stored in user file, and the parallel ability of ParallelOk contract is activated.

（2）Send parallel transfer transactions in batch

Note: before send transactions in batch, please adjust the SDK log level to ERROR to ensure capacity.

# java -cp 'conf/:lib/*:apps/*' org.fisco.bcos.sdk.demo.perf.ParallelOkPerf [precompiled] [groupID] [transfer] [count] [tps] [file]
java -cp 'conf/:lib/*:apps/*' org.fisco.bcos.sdk.demo.perf.ParallelOkPerf precompiled 1 transfer 100000 4000 user
# 100000 transactions have been sent to group1, the TPS limit is 4000, users are the same in the user file created formerly.

（3）Verify parallel correctness

After parallel transaction is executed, java-sdk-demo will print execution result. TPS is the TPS executed on node in the transaction sent by SDK. validation is the verification of transfer transaction result.

Total transactions:  100000
Total time: 34412ms
TPS: 2905.9630361501804
Avg time cost: 4027ms
Error rate: 0%
Return Error rate: 0%
Time area:
0    < time <  50ms   : 0  : 0.0%
50   < time <  100ms  : 44  : 0.044000000000000004%
100  < time <  200ms  : 2617  : 2.617%
200  < time <  400ms  : 6214  : 6.214%
400  < time <  1000ms : 14190  : 14.19%
1000 < time <  2000ms : 9224  : 9.224%
2000 < time           : 67711  : 67.711%
validation:
 	user count is 10000
 	verify_success count is 10000
 	verify_failed count is 0

We can see that the TPS of this transaction is 2905. No error (verify_failed count is 0) after execution result is verified.

（4）Count total TPS

Single java-sdk-demo cannot send enough transactions to reach the parallel execution limit of nodes. It needs multiple java-sdk-demos to send transactions at the same time. TPS by simply summing together won’t be correct enough when multiple java-sdk-demos sending transactions, so it should be acquired directly from node.

count TPS from log file using script

cd tools
sh get_tps.sh log/log_2019031821.00.log 21:26:24 21:26:59 # parameters：<log file> <count start time> <count end time>

get TPS（2 SDK, 4 nodes, 8 cores, 16G memory）

statistic_end = 21:26:58.631195
statistic_start = 21:26:24.051715
total transactions = 193332, execute_time = 34580ms, tps = 5590 (tx/s)
Parallel precompiled contract: DagTransferPrecompiled

Same with the function of ParallelOk contract, FISCO BCOS has built-in example of parallel precompiled contract (DagTransferPrecompiled) and realizes transfer function based on account model. The contract can manage deposits from multiple users and provides a parallel transfer interface for parallel transactions of payment transfer between users.

Note: DagTransferPrecompiled is the example of parallel transaction with simple functions, please don’t use it for online transactions.

（1）Create user

Use java-sdk-demo to send transaction to create user, the user information will be stored in user file. Command parameter is the same with parallelOk, the only difference is that the object called by the command is precompile.

# java -cp 'conf/:lib/*:apps/*' org.fisco.bcos.sdk.demo.perf.ParallelOkPerf [precompiled] [groupID] [add] [count] [tps] [file]
java -cp conf/:lib/*:apps/* org.fisco.bcos.sdk.demo.perf.ParallelOkPerf precompiled 1 add 10000 2500 user
# 在group1上创建了 10000个用户，创建操作以2500TPS发送的，生成的用户信息保存在user中

（2）Send parallel transfer transactions in batch

Send parallel transfer transactions through java-sdk-demo

Note: before sending transactions in batch, please adjust SDK log level to ERROR for enough capability to send transactions.

# java -cp 'conf/:lib/*:apps/*' org.fisco.bcos.sdk.demo.perf.ParallelOkPerf [precompiled] [groupID] [transfer] [count] [tps] [file]
java -cp 'conf/:lib/*:apps/*' org.fisco.bcos.sdk.demo.perf.ParallelOkPerf precompiled 1 transfer 100000 4000 user

# 100000 transactions has been sent to group1, the TPS limit is 4000, users are the same ones in the user file created formerly, 20% exclusion exists between transactions.

（3）Verify parallel correctness

After parallel transactions are executed, java-sdk-demo will print execution result. TPS is the TPS of the transaction sent by SDK on the node. validation is the verification of transfer execution result.

Total transactions:  80000
Total time: 25451ms
TPS: 3143.2949589407094
Avg time cost: 5203ms
Error rate: 0%
Return Error rate: 0%
Time area:
0    < time <  50ms   : 0  : 0.0%
50   < time <  100ms  : 0  : 0.0%
100  < time <  200ms  : 0  : 0.0%
200  < time <  400ms  : 0  : 0.0%
400  < time <  1000ms : 403  : 0.50375%
1000 < time <  2000ms : 5274  : 6.592499999999999%
2000 < time           : 74323  : 92.90375%
validation:
 	user count is 10000
 	verify_success count is 10000
 	verify_failed count is 0

We can see that in this transaction, the TPS is 3143. No error (verify_failed count is 0) after execution result verification.

（4）Count total TPS

Single java-sdk-demo can send enough transactions to meet the parallel execution limit of node. It needs multiple java-sdk-demo to send tranactions. And by simply summing the TPS of each transaction won’t be correct, so the TPS should be acquired from node directly.

Count TPS from log file using script

cd tools
sh get_tps.sh log/log_2019031311.17.log 11:25 11:30 # parameter：<log file> <count start time> <count end time>

get TPS (3 SDK, 4 nodes, 8 cores, 16G memory)

statistic_end = 11:29:59.587145
statistic_start = 11:25:00.642866
total transactions = 3340000, execute_time = 298945ms, tps = 11172 (tx/s)
Result description

The performance result in the example of this chapter is tested in 3SDK, 4 nodes, 8 cores, 16G memory, 1G network. Each SDK and node are deployed in different VPS with cloud disk. The real TPS depends on the condition of your hardware configuration, operation system and bandwidth.

Privacy protection

Privacy protection is a major technical challenge for the alliance chain. In order to protect the data, keep the anonymity of alliance members, and ensure the effectiveness of supervision，FISCO BCOS integrates homomorphic encryption and group/ring signature algorithms in Precompiled Contracts, providing multiple privacy protection methods.

Note

  1. FISCO BCOS 2.3.0+ supports homomorphic encryption, group signature and ring signature

  2. FISCO BCOS 2.3.0, 2.4.0 and 2.4.1, you need to manually compile the binary to enable the privacy protection module

  3. FISCO BCOS 2.5.0+ enables privacy protection module by default

Homomorphic encryption

Introduction

Homomorphic Encryption is one of the jewels in the field of public key cryptosystems. It has more than 40 years of research history, and its wonderful cryptographic characteristics have attracted wide attention。

  • Homomorphic encryption is essentially a public key encryption algorithm, that is, the public key is used for encryption, and the private key is used for decryption.

  • Homomorphic encryption allows computation on ciphertexts, generating an encrypted result which, when decrypted, matches the result of the operations as if they had been performed on the plaintext.

  • Formula description：

_images/formula.jpg

FISCO BCOS uses the paillier encryption algorithm which supports addition homomorphism. Paillier key pairs are compatible with mainstream RSA public key encryption algorithms, and the use costs is low. At the same time, paillier, as a lightweight homomorphic encryption algorithm, has low calculation overhead and is easily accepted by business systems. Therefore, after balancing the trade-off between functionality and usability, the paillier algorithm was finally selected.

Components

Components of FISCO BCOS homomorphic encryption module include:

  • paillierlibrary, provides java version library and c++ version homomorphic interface.

  • paillierprecompiled contract, provides homomorphic interface for smart contracts.

Suggestion

For services that require privacy protection, if it needs simple ciphertext calculation, this module can be used to fulfill related demands. All data on the chain can be encrypted by calling the paillier library. The ciphertext data on the chain can be homomorphically added by calling the paillier precompiled contract. After the ciphertext is returned to the application layer, it can be decrypted by calling the paillier library. The specific process is shown in the following figure:

_images/paillier.jpg

Scenario

In the alliance chain, different business scenarios need to be equipped with different privacy protection policies. For businesses with strong privacy, such as reconciliation between financial institutions, it is necessary to encrypt asset data. In FISCO BCOS, the user can call the homomorphic encryption library to encrypt the data. When the consensus node executes the transaction, the homomorphic encryption precompiled contract is called to obtain the result of the ciphertext calculation.

Group/Ring signature

Introduction

Group signature

Group signature is a digital signature scheme that can protect the identity of the signer. Users can sign messages instead of the group they belong to, and the verifier can verify whether the signature is valid. In this case, the verifier could not know which group member the signature belongs to. However, users cannot abuse this anonymous behavior, because the group administrator can open the signature through the group owner’s private key, exposing the attribution information of the signature. Group signature features include:

  • Anonymity: group members use group parameters to generate signatures, others can only verify the validity of the signature, and know the group to which the signer belongs through the signature, but cannot obtain the identity information of the signer;

  • Unforgeability: only group members can generate valid and verifiable group signatures;

  • Unlinkability: given two signatures, it is impossible to determine whether they are from the same signer;

  • Traceability: the group owner can obtain the signer identity through signature.

Ring signature

Ring signature is a special group signature scheme, but has complete anonymity, that is, there is no administrator, users can actively join the ring, and the signature cannot be opened. Ring signature features include:

  • Unforgeability: other members in the ring cannot fake the signature of the real signer;

  • Full anonymity: there is no administrator, others can only verify the validity of the ring signature, but no one can obtain the identity information of the signer.

Components

Components of FISCO BCOS group/ring signature module include:

  • group/ring signaturelibrary, provides c++ version library.

  • group/ring signatureprecompiled contracts, provides verify interfaces for smart contracts.

Suggestion

Services that have the need to hide the identity of the signer can use this module to fulfill related demands. The user signs the data by calling the group/ring signature library, and then uploads the signature. The application contracts verifies the signature by calling the group/ring signature precompiled contracts, and returns the verification result back to the application layer. If it is a group signature, the supervisor can also open the specified signature data to obtain the identity of the signer. The specific process is shown in the following figure:

_images/group_sig.jpg

Scenario

Due to its natural anonymity, group/ring signature has broad application prospects in scenarios where participants’ identities need to be hidden, such as anonymous voting, anonymous auctions, anonymous auctions, etc., and can even be used in the blockchain with UTXO model to achieve anonymous transfers. At the same time, due to the traceability of group signature, it can be used in scenarios that require regulatory intervention. The supervisor acts as the group owner or entrusts the group owner to reveal the identity of the signer.

How to start

Build chain

Make sure you are in the FISCO-BCOS/build directory, and execute the following command to build a local 4-node chain. Refer to here to get more build options.

bash ../manual/build_chain.sh -l 127.0.0.1:4 -e bin/fisco-bcos

Precompiled contract interface

The code of the privacy module is put together with the precompiled contracts developed by the user, located in the FISCO-BCOS/libprecompiled/extension directory. The calling method of the privacy module is exactly the same as the calling method of the precompiled contract developed by the user, but there are two points to note:

  1. Addresses have been assigned to the precompiled contracts for the privacy module and no additional registration is required. The precompiled contract list and address allocation of the privacy module are as follows:

Addresses Function Resource
0x5003 Homomorphic encryption PaillierPrecompiled.cpp
0x5004 Group signature GroupSigPrecompiled.cpp
0x5005 Ring signature RingSigPrecompiled.cpp

  1. Need to declare the interfaces of the precompiled contracts through the solidity contract. The contract files need to be saved in the console contract directory console/contracts/solidity. The contract interface of each privacy function is as follows:

  • Homomorphic encryption

    // PaillierPrecompiled.sol
pragma solidity ^0.4.24;
contract PaillierPrecompiled{
    function paillierAdd(string cipher1, string cipher2) public constant returns(string);
}

  • Group signature

    // GroupSigPrecompiled.sol
pragma solidity ^0.4.24;
contract GroupSigPrecompiled{
		function groupSigVerify(string signature, string message, string gpkInfo, string paramInfo) public constant returns(bool);
}

  • Ring signature

    // RingSigPrecompiled.sol
pragma solidity ^0.4.24;
contract RingSigPrecompiled{
     function ringSigVerify(string signature, string message, string paramInfo) public constant returns(bool);
}

Called by console

After building the chain by the newly compiled binary, deploy the console (version v1.0.2 or later), and copy the interface declaration files to the console contract directory. Take calling homomorphic encryption as an example:

# start the console in the console directory

Note: The inputted ciphertexts can be generated through the java library in the paillier library.

Called by solidity contract

Take homomorphic encryption as an example. First, create a precompiled contract object in the solidity contract and call its interface, then create a CallPaillier.sol file in the consoleconsole/contracts/solidity. The file content is as follows:

// CallPaillier.sol
pragma solidity ^0.4.24;
import "./PaillierPrecompiled.sol";

contract CallPaillier {
    PaillierPrecompiled paillier;
    function CallPaillier() {

        // call PaillierPrecompiled contract
        paillier = PaillierPrecompiled(0x5003);
    }
    function add(string cipher1, string cipher2) public constant returns(string) {
        return paillier.paillierAdd(cipher1, cipher2);
    }
}

Deploy the CallPaillier contract, and then call the add interface. Using the above ciphertext as inputs, you will get the same result.

Q: How to build FISCO BCOS 2.0 version?
A: FISCO BCOS supports multiple building methods. The common methods are:

  • build_chain.sh: It is suitable for developer experience and testing FISCO BCOS alliance chain. For the detail, please refer to here。

  • FISCO-Generator：For deploying and maintaining the FISCO BCOS Alliance Chain with enterprise users. For the detail, please refer to here。

Q: What is the difference on the smart contract between FISCO BCOS 2.0 version and the previous version? And how is the compatibility?
A: FISCO BCOS version 2.0 supports the latest Solidity contract and precompile contract. For the detail, please [refer to here] (../manual/smart_contract.md).

Q: What is the difference between the national cryptographic version and the normal version?
A: The national cryptography version FISCO BCOS replaces the cryptographic algorithms of underlying modules such as transaction signature verification, p2p network connection, node connection, and data disk encryption with the national cryptography algorithm. Meanwhile, in compiling version and certificate, disk encryption, and solidity compiling java, there are some difference on web3sdk using national cryptography version and normal version, please refer to [refer to here] (./manual/guomi_crypto.md).

Q: Does it support to upgrade to 2.0 version from 1.3 or 1.5?
A: It does not.

Console

Q: Is the console instruction case sensitive?
A: It is case-sensitive. The command will match exactly, and tab can be used to complete your command.

Q: When adding to the Sealer list or the Observer list, it will report error as nodeID is not in network, why?
A: The nodes that adds to the Sealer list and the Observer list must be a member of the nodeID list that connects to the peer.

Q: To delete node will report error as nodeID is not in group peers, why?
A: The node to be delete must be the peer of the group displayed in getGroupPeers

Q: Can the RemoveNodes (non-group nodes) synchronize group data?
A: RemoveNodes does not participate in the consensus, synchronization, and block generation within the group. RemoveNodes can add the exit node as Sealer/Observer through the command of console addSealer/addObserver.

Q: If the node belongs to a different group, can it support querying information of multiple groups?
A: Yes, when you enter the console, you can input the groupID you want to view: ./start [groupID]

FISCO BCOS using

Q: Where to get Ver 2.0 certificates?
A: Please read Certificates Decsription

Q: What fields are contained in the transaction structure of Ver 2.0?
A: Please read here Q: What are the system configuration, group configuration, and node configuration?
A: System configuration refers to some configuration items that affect the ledger function and require the consensus of the ledger node in the node configuration. Group configuration refers to the configuration of the group which the node belongs to. Each group of nodes has an independent configuration. Node configuration refers to all configurable items.

Q: Can the group configuration be changed?
A: Whether the configuration item could be changed can be measured by:

  • The node that is first time to launch and has generated a genesis block can not be modified. This type of configuration is placed in the group.x.genesis file, where x is the group number, and it is unique in the entire chain.

  • To implement consistence in ledger by sending the transaction modification configuration item.

  • After the configuration file is modified, the node can be restarted to takes effect. This type of configuration is placed in the group.x.ini file. After the group configuration is changed, the restart can be changed locally, the changeable item becomes the local configuration. The group.*.ini file under nodeX/conf is changed and restarted to takes effect. The involved configuration items are [tx_pool].limit (transaction pool capacity) and [consensus].ttl (node forwarding number).

Q: Which configurations can the group configuration user change?
A: The group can be modified and configured into consensus changeable configuration and manual changeable configuration.

  • consensus changeable configuration: all nodes in the group are the same, and takes effect after consensus. [consensus].max_trans_num,[consensus].node.X,[tx].gas_limit.

  • manual changeable configuration: it is in the group.x.ini file and restarted to take effect after modification. It only affects node. The configuration item has [tx_pool].limit.

Q: How to change and inquire the consensus changeable configuration?
A: Consensus changeable configuration can be changed through console. It can be inquired through console and RPC interface. For detail, please [refer to here] (../design/rpc.md).

  • [consensus].max_trans_num,[tx].gas_limit is changed by using the interface setSystemConfigByKey, and the corresponding configuration items are tx_count_limit, tx_gas_limit. See setSystemConfigByKey -h for details.

  • [consensus].node.X’s change refers to node management. The console interface refer to addSealer, addObserver, removeNode. For detail, please refer to Node Management.

Q: What is the difference between Observer node and Sealer node in group?
A: Observer node can synchronize the group data, but cannot participate in consensus. Consensus nodes have the Observer permission and participate in consensus.

Q: How to incorporate contract into CNS management?
A: When contract is deployed, to call the CNS contract interface, and to compile the information of contract name, version, and address information into the CNS list.

Q: How to query the contract CNS list?
A: To query CNS list through the command of web3sdk console, and the query command is queried according to the contract name.

Q: Why can’t local SDK connect to FISCO BCOS nodes on cloud servers?
A:

  1. Check the node configuration on the cloud server to see if Channel is listening for IP over the extranet, rather than 127.0.0.1. Port Description Refer here

  2. Check the console provided by the cloud manufacturer of the cloud server, check whether the security group is configured, and open the channel port used by FISCO BCOS nodes in the security group.

  3. Check that the generated certificate is correct, refer to here

Q: Why connection to other peer nodes can not be established after launching the node, and the log report there are network exceptions? A:

  1. Please check that certificate files of the node are correct

  2. Please check that type (SM_CRYPTO or not) of the node is consistent with other peer nodes

Q： Why “invalid group status” error information appears in the log of node?

A：Due to possible fault of file system, group status recorded by node on local disk may be invalid. Users can check .group_status file in group’s data folder, and change the content to the one of following items:

  • STOPPED

  • DELETED

  • RUNNING

Java SDK

Q: What does Web3SDK require to Java version?
A: It requires JDK8 version or above

The OpenJDK of yum repository of CentOS lacks JCE (Java Cryptography Extension), which causes Java SDK to fail to connect to blockchain node. When using the CentOS operation system, it is recommended to download it from the OpenJDK website. [Installation Guide] (https://openjdk.java.net/install/index.html)

Q: After the Java SDK configuration is completed, what is the reason for the failed transaction?
A: The ip, port, group number in applicationContext.xml are incorrectly filled or the node files of ca.crt, sdk.crt, and sdk.key files are missing.

Enterprise deployment tool

Chain building script

Important

The goal of the script is to let users apply FISCO BCOS as quickly as possible. For the enterprise applications deploying FISCO BCOS, please refer to Enterprise Deployment Tools .

FISCO BCOS has provided build_chain script to help users quickly build FISCO BCOS alliance chain. By default, the script downloads master branch of the latest version pre-compiles executable program from GitHubfor building related environment.

Script introduction

  • build_chain.sh is used to quickly generate configuration files of a chain node. For the script that depends on openssl, please according your own operating system to install openssl 1.0.2 version and above. The source code of script is located at here.

  • For quick experience can use the -l option to specify the node IP and number. -f option supports the creation of FISCO BCOS chains for complex business scenarios by using a configuration file in a specified format. -l and -f options must be specified uniquely and cannot coexist.

  • It is recommended to use -T option for testing. -T enables log level to DEBUG, p2p module listens for 0.0.0.0 by default.

Note

In order to facilitate development and experience, the default listening IP of the P2P module is 0.0.0.0. For security reasons, please modify it to a safe listening address according to the actual business network situation, such as the internal IP or a specific external IP.

+ Use to generate node according to configuration file. It supports more customization than `l` option.
+ Split by row. Each row represents a server, in the format of `IP:NUM AgencyName GroupList`. Items in each line are separated by spaces, and there must be **no blank lines**.
+ `IP:NUM` represents the IP address of the machine and the number of nodes on the machine.`AgencyName`represents the name of the institution to specifies the institution certificate to use. `GroupList` represents the group that the generated node belong to, split by`,`. For example, `192.168.0.1:2 agency1 1,2` represents that a machine with `ip` which is `192.168.0.1` exists two nodes. For example, 192.168.0.1:2 agency1 1,2 represents that there are two nodes on the machine with ip 192.168.0.1. These two nodes belong to agency `agency1` and belong to group1 and group2.

The following is an example of a configuration file. Each configuration item separated by a space, where GroupList represents the group that the server belongs to.

192.168.0.1:2 agency1 1,2
192.168.0.1:2 agency1 1,3
192.168.0.2:3 agency2 1
192.168.0.3:5 agency3 2,3
192.168.0.4:2 agency2 3

Console

Console

Important

  • Console 1.x series is based on Web3SDK implementation, after console 2.6+ is based on Java SDK implementation, this tutorial is aimed at 2.6 and above version console, for 1.x version console usage documentation please refer to here

  • You can view the current console version through the command ./start.sh --version

console is an important interactive client tool of FISCO BCOS 2.0. It establishes a connection with blockchain node through Java SDK to request read and write access for blockchain node data. Console has a wealth of commands, including blockchain status inquiry, blockchain nodes management, contracts deployment and calling. In addition, console provides a contract compilation tool that allows users to easily and quickly compile Solidity contract files into Java contract files.

Console command

Console command consists of two parts, the instructions and the parameters related to the instruction:

  • Instruction: instruction is an executed operation command, including blockchain status inquiry and contracts deployment and calling. And some of the instructions call the JSON-RPC interface, so they have same name as the JSON-RPC interface. Use suggestions: instructions can be completed using the tab key, and support for displaying historical input commands by pressing the up and down keys.

  • Parameters related to the instruction: parameters required by instruction call interface. Instructions to parameters and parameters to parameters are separated by spaces. The parameters name same as JSON-RPC interface and the explanation of getting information field can be referred to JSON-RPC API.

Shortcut key

  • Ctrl+A: move cursor to the beginning of line

  • Ctrl+D: exit console

  • Ctrl+E: move cursor to the end of line

  • Ctrl+R: search for the history commands have been entered

  • ↑: browse history commands forward

  • ↓: browse history commands backward

Console response

When a console command is launched, the console will obtain the result of the command execution and displays the result at the terminal. The execution result is divided into two categories:

  • True: The command returns to the true execution result as a string or json.

  • False: The command returns to the false execution result as a string or json.

    • When console command call the JSON-RPC interface, error code reference here.

    • When console command call the Precompiled Service interface, error code reference here.

Console configuration instructions

When the console configuration file configures multiple node connections in a group, some nodes in the group may leave the group during operation. Therefore, it shows a norm which is when the console is polling, the return information may be inconsistent. It is recommended to configure a node or ensure that the configured nodes are always in the group when using the console, so that the inquired information in the group will keep consistent during the synchronization time.

Contract compilation tool

Console provides a special compilation contract tool that allows developers to compile Solidity contract files into Java contract files. Two steps for using the tool:

  • To place the Solidity contract file in the contracts/solidity directory.

  • Complete the task of compiling contract by running the sol2java.sh script (requires specifying a java package name). For example, there are HelloWorld.sol, TableTest.sol, and Table.sol contracts in the contracts/solidity directory, and we specify the package name as org.com.fisco. The command is as follows:

    $ cd ~/fisco/console
$ ./sol2java.sh org.com.fisco

After running successfully, the directories of Java, ABI and bin will be generated in the console/contracts/sdk directory as shown below.

```bash
|-- abi # to compile the generated abi directory and to store the abi file compiled by solidity contract
|   |-- HelloWorld.abi
|   |-- Table.abi
|   |-- TableTest.abi
|-- bin # to compile the generated bin directory and to store the bin file compiled by solidity contract
|   |-- HelloWorld.bin
|   |-- Table.bin
|   |-- TableTest.bin
|-- java  # to store compiled package path and Java contract file
|   |-- org
|       |-- com
|           |-- fisco
|               |-- HelloWorld.java # the target Java file which is compiled successfully
|               |-- Table.java  # the CRUD interface Java file which is compiled successfully
|               |-- TableTest.java  # the TableTest Java file which is compiled successfully
```

In the java directory, org/com/fisco/ package path directory is generated. In the package path directory, the java contract files HelloWorld.java, TableTest.java and Table.java will be generated. HelloWorld.java and TableTest.java are the java contract files required by the java application.

The console provides the account generation script get_account.sh (for the script tutorial, please refer to Account Management Document. The generated account file is in the accounts directory, and the account file loaded by console must be placed in the directory.

The console startup methods are as follows:

./start.sh
./start.sh groupID
./start.sh groupID -pem pemName
./start.sh groupID -p12 p12Name
Default start

The console randomly generates an account that is started with the group number specified in the console configuration file.

./start.sh
Specify group number to start

The console randomly generates an account that is started with the group number specified on the command line.

./start.sh 2

  • Note: The specified group needs to configure ‘bean’ in the console configuration file.

Start with PEM format private key file

  • Start with the account of the specified pem file, enter the parameters: group number, -pem, and pem file path

[group:1]> deploy TableTest
contract address:0x3554a56ea2905f366c345bd44fa374757fb4696a

Note:

  • For deploying a user-written contract, we just need to place the solidity contract file in the contracts/solidity/ directory of the console root, and then deploy it. Press the tab key to search for the contract name in the contracts/solidity directory.

  • If the contract need to be deployed refers to other contracts or libraries, the reference format is import "./XXX.sol";. The related contracts and libraries are placed in the contracts/solidity/ directory.

  • If contract references the library library, the name of library file must start with Lib string to distinguish between the normal contract and the library file. Library files cannot be deployed and called separately.

  • **Because FISCO BCOS has removed the transfer payment logic of Ethereum, the solidity contract does not support using payable keyword. This keyword will cause the Java contract file converted by solidity contract to fail at compilation. **

[group:1]> create table t_demo(name varchar, item_id varchar, item_name varchar, primary key(name))
Create 't_demo' Ok.

Note:

  • The field types for creating table are all string types. Even if other field types of the database are provided, the field types have to be set according to the string type.

  • The primary key field must be specified. For example, to create a t_demo table with the primary key field as name.

  • The primary key of the table has different concept from the primary key in the relational database. Here, the value of the primary key is not unique, and the primary key value needs to be passed when the blockchain underlying platform is handling records.

  • You can specify the field as the primary key, but the setting fields such as self-incrementing, non-empty, indexing, etc do not work.

desc

Run desc statement to query the field information of the table in mysql statement form.

# query the field information of the t_demo table. you can view the primary key name and other field names of the table.

{item_id=2, item_name=apple2, name=fruit}
1 row in set.

# use limit field to query the first line of records. If the offset is not provided, it is 0 by default.
[group:1]> select * from t_demo where name = fruit limit 1
{item_id=1, item_name=apple1, name=fruit}
1 row in set.

Console

Important

  • Console 1.x series is based on Web3SDK implementation, after Console 2.6 is based on `Java SDK <../sdk/java_sdk/index.html >`_ implementation, this tutorial is aimed at 1.x version console, for 2.6 and above version console usage documentation please refer to here

  • You can view the current console version through the command ./start.sh --version

Console is an important interactive client tool of FISCO BCOS 2.0. It establishes a connection with blockchain node through Java SDK to request read and write access for blockchain node data. Console has a wealth of commands, including blockchain status inquiry, blockchain nodes management, contracts deployment and calling. In addition, console provides a contract compilation tool that allows users to easily and quickly compile Solidity contract files into Java contract files.

Console command

Console command consists of two parts, the instructions and the parameters related to the instruction:

  • Instruction: instruction is an executed operation command, including blockchain status inquiry and contracts deployment and calling. And some of the instructions call the JSON-RPC interface, so they have same name as the JSON-RPC interface. Use suggestions: instructions can be completed using the tab key, and support for displaying historical input commands by pressing the up and down keys.

  • Parameters related to the instruction: parameters required by instruction call interface. Instructions to parameters and parameters to parameters are separated by spaces. The parameters name same as JSON-RPC interface and the explanation of getting information field can be referred to JSON-RPC API.

Shortcut key

  • Ctrl+A: move cursor to the beginning of line

  • Ctrl+D: exit console

  • Ctrl+E: move cursor to the end of line

  • Ctrl+R: search for the history commands have been entered

  • ↑: browse history commands forward

  • ↓: browse history commands backward

Console response

When a console command is launched, the console will obtain the result of the command execution and displays the result at the terminal. The execution result is divided into two categories:

  • True: The command returns to the true execution result as a string or json.

  • False: The command returns to the false execution result as a string or json.

    • When console command call the JSON-RPC interface, error code reference here.

    • When console command call the Precompiled Service interface, error code reference here.

Important

Console configuration instructions

  • If the console is configured correctly, but when it is launched on Cent0S system, the following error occurs:

    Failed to connect to the node. Please check the node status and the console configuration.

    It is because the JDK version that comes with the CentOS system is used (it will cause the console and blockchain node’s authentication to fail). Please download Java 8 version or above from OpenJDK official website or Oracle official website and install (specific installation steps refer to Appendix). To launch the console after installation.

  • When the console configuration file configures multiple node connections in a group, some nodes in the group may leave the group during operation. Therefore, it shows a norm which is when the console is polling, the return information may be inconsistent. It is recommended to configure a node or ensure that the configured nodes are always in the group when using the console, so that the inquired information in the group will keep consistent during the synchronization time.

Configure OSCCA-approved cryptography console

  • Blockchain node and certificate configuration:

    • To copy the ca.crt, sdk.crt, and sdk.key files in the sdk node directory to the conf directory.

    • To rename the applicationContext-sample.xml file in the conf directory to the applicationContext.xml file. To configure the applicationContext.xml file, where the remark content is modified according to the blockchain node configuration. **Hint: If the channel_listen_ip(If the node version is earlier than v2.3.0, check the configuration item listen_ip) set through chain building is 127.0.0.1 or 0.0.0.0 and the channel_port is 20200, the applicationContext.xml configuration is not modified. **

Contract compilation tool

Console provides a special compilation contract tool that allows developers to compile Solidity contract files into Java contract files. Two steps for using the tool:

  • To place the Solidity contract file in the contracts/solidity directory.

  • Complete the task of compiling contract by running the sol2java.sh script (requires specifying a java package name). For example, there are HelloWorld.sol, TableTest.sol, and Table.sol contracts in the contracts/solidity directory, and we specify the package name as org.com.fisco. The command is as follows:

    $ cd ~/fisco/console
$ ./sol2java.sh org.com.fisco

After running successfully, the directories of Java, ABI and bin will be generated in the console/contracts/sdk directory as shown below.

```bash
|-- abi # to compile the generated abi directory and to store the abi file compiled by solidity contract
|   |-- HelloWorld.abi
|   |-- Table.abi
|   |-- TableTest.abi
|-- bin # to compile the generated bin directory and to store the bin file compiled by solidity contract
|   |-- HelloWorld.bin
|   |-- Table.bin
|   |-- TableTest.bin
|-- java  # to store compiled package path and Java contract file
|   |-- org
|       |-- com
|           |-- fisco
|               |-- HelloWorld.java # the target Java file which is compiled successfully
|               |-- Table.java  # the CRUD interface Java file which is compiled successfully
|               |-- TableTest.java  # the TableTest Java file which is compiled successfully
```

In the java directory, org/com/fisco/ package path directory is generated. In the package path directory, the java contract files HelloWorld.java, TableTest.java and Table.java will be generated. HelloWorld.java and TableTest.java are the java contract files required by the java application.

**Note: **

  • help shows the meaning of each command: command and command description

  • for instructions on how to use specific commands, enter the command -h or --help to view them. E.g:

[group:1]> getBlockByNumber -h
Query information about a block by block number.
Usage: getBlockByNumber blockNumber [boolean]
blockNumber -- Integer of a block number, from 0 to 2147483647.
boolean -- (optional) If true it returns the full transaction objects, if false only the hashes of the transactions.
switch

To run switch or s to switch to the specified group. The group number is displayed in front of the command prompt.

[group:1]> switch 2
Switched to group 2.

[group:2]>

**Note: ** For the group that needs to be switched, make sure that the information of the group is configured in applicationContext.xml (the initial state of this configuration file only provides the group 1 configuration) in the console/conf directory, the configured node ID and port in the group are correct, and the node is running normally.

}
deploy

To run deploy to deploy contract. (By default, HelloWorld contract and TableTest.sol are provided for example) Parameter:

  • Contract name: deployment contract name (can be suffixed with .sol). It can name as either HelloWorld or HelloWorld.sol.

# To deploy HelloWorld contract
[group:1]> deploy HelloWorld.sol
contract address:0xb3c223fc0bf6646959f254ac4e4a7e355b50a344

# To deploy TableTest contract
[group:1]> deploy TableTest.sol
contract address:0x3554a56ea2905f366c345bd44fa374757fb4696a

Note:

  • For deploying a user-written contract, we just need to place the solidity contract file in the contracts/solidity/ directory of the console root, and then deploy it. Press the tab key to search for the contract name in the contracts/solidity directory.

  • If the contract need to be deployed refers to other contracts or libraries, the reference format is import "./XXX.sol";. The related contracts and libraries are placed in the contracts/solidity/ directory.

  • If contract references the library library, the name of library file must start with Lib string to distinguish between the normal contract and the library file. Library files cannot be deployed and called separately.

  • **Because FISCO BCOS has removed the transfer payment logic of Ethereum, the solidity contract does not support using payable keyword. This keyword will cause the Java contract file converted by solidity contract to fail at compilation. **

getDeployLog

Run getDeployLog to query the log information of the contract deployed by current console in the group. The log information includes the time of deployment contract, the group ID, the contract name, and the contract address. parameter:

  • Log number: optional. To return the latest log information according to the expected value entered. When the actual number is less than the expected value, it returns by the actual number. When the expected value is not given, it returns by the latest 20 log information by default.

Note: If you want to see all the deployment contract log information, please check the deploylog.txt file in the console directory. The file only stores the log records of the last 10,000 deployment contracts.

call

To run call to call contract. Parameter:

  • Contract name: the contract name of the deployment (can be suffixed with .sol).

  • Contract address: the address obtained by the deployment contract. The contract address can omit the prefix 0. For example, 0x000ac78 can be abbreviated as 0xac78.

  • Contract interface name: the called interface name.

  • Parameter: determined by contract interface parameters.

**Parameters are separated by spaces. The string and byte type parameters need to be enclosed in double quotes; array parameters need to be enclosed in brackets, such as [1,2,3]; array is a string or byte type and needs to be enclosed in double quotation marks, such as [“alice”, “bob”]. Note that there are no spaces in the array parameters; boolean types are true or false. **

Create 't_demo' Ok.

Note:

  • The field types for creating table are all string types. Even if other field types of the database are provided, the field types have to be set according to the string type.

  • The primary key field must be specified. For example, to create a t_demo table with the primary key field as name.

  • The primary key of the table has different concept from the primary key in the relational database. Here, the value of the primary key is not unique, and the primary key value needs to be passed when the blockchain underlying platform is handling records.

  • You can specify the field as the primary key, but the setting fields such as self-incrementing, non-empty, indexing, etc do not work.

desc

Run desc statement to query the field information of the table in mysql statement form.

# query the field information of the t_demo table. you can view the primary key name and other field names of the table.

  • The enter values with punctuation, spaces, or strings containing letters starting with a number requires double quotation marks, and no more double quotation marks are allowed inside.

[select sql]

Run select sql statement to query the record in mysql statement form.

# query the records contain all fields
select * from t_demo where name = fruit
{item_id=1, item_name=apple1, name=fruit}
1 row in set.

# query the records contain the specified fields
[group:1]> select name, item_id, item_name from t_demo where name = fruit
{name=fruit, item_id=1, item_name=apple1}
1 row in set.

# insert a new record
[group:1]> insert into t_demo values (fruit, 2, apple2)
Insert OK, 1 row affected.

# use the keyword 'and' to connect multiple query condition
[group:1]> select * from t_demo where name = fruit and item_name = apple2
{item_id=2, item_name=apple2, name=fruit}
1 row in set.

# use limit field to query the first line of records. If the offset is not provided, it is 0 by default.
[group:1]> select * from t_demo where name = fruit limit 1
{item_id=1, item_name=apple1, name=fruit}
1 row in set.

# use limit field to query the second line record. The offset is 1
[group:1]> select * from t_demo where name = fruit limit 1,1
{item_id=2, item_name=apple2, name=fruit}
1 rows in set.

Note:

  • For querying the statement recording sql, the primary key field value of the table in the where clause must be provided.

  • The limit field in the relational database can be used. Providing two parameters which are offset and count.

  • The where clause only supports the keyword ‘and’. Other keywords like ‘or’, ‘in’, ‘like’, ‘inner’, ‘join’, ‘union’, subquery, multi-table joint query, and etc. are not supported.

  • The enter values with punctuation, spaces, or strings containing letters starting with a number requires double quotation marks, and no more double quotation marks are allowed inside.

[update sql]

[group:1]> update t_demo set item_name = orange where name = fruit and item_id = 1
Update OK, 1 row affected.

Note:

  • For updating the where clause of recording sql statement, the primary key field value of the table in the where clause must be provided.

  • The enter values with punctuation, spaces, or strings containing letters starting with a number requires double quotation marks, and no more double quotation marks are allowed inside.

[delete sql]

Run delete sql statement to delete the record in mysql statement form.

[group:1]> delete from t_demo where name = fruit and item_id = 1
Remove OK, 1 row affected.

Blockchain browser

1. Description

1.1 Introduction

This blockchain browser is compatible with FISCO BCOS 2.0.0. FISCO BCOS 1.2 or 1.3 users please check v1.2.1.

Blockchain browser is capable of blockchain visualization and real-time presentation. Users can get the information of the blockchain through web pages. This browser is only compatible with FISCO BCOS 2.0+. You can learn the newest features in here. Before using this browser, you may need to learn the groups feature of FISCO BCOS 2.0+.

_images/overview.png

1.2 Main functional modules

This chapter will give a brief introduction on each module of the browser for all-round understanding. Main functional modules of the blockchain browser includes: group switch module, configuration module and data visualization module.

1.2.1 Group switch module

Group switch module is adopted to access blockchain data when switching to different groups in multi-groups case.

_images/switch_group.jpg

1.2.2 Configuration module

Configuration module includes group configuration, node configuration and contract configuration.

_images/group_config.png

1.2.3 Data visualization module

Blockchain browser demonstrates the detail information of specific group on the chain including: overview, block information and transaction information.

_images/show.jpg

2. Premises of use

2.1 Group building

Data shown in the blockchain browser is synchronized with blockchain. To synchronize data, initialization configuration (adding group information and node information) is needed. So users have to run a FISCO BCOS instance and build groups before data synchronizing. FISCO BCOS 2.0+ has provided multiple convenient group building methods.

  1. For developers to experience and debug quickly, we recommend the script build_chain.

  2. For enterprise applications, FISCO BCOS generator is a more considerable deployment tool.

The distinguish of the above methods lie in that the script build_chain is for better and quicker building experience and it helps developers generate private key of each node in groups; deployment tool doesn’t automatically generate private key for safety consideration, and business users need to generate and set by themselves.

3. Building of blockchain browser

Blockchain browser can be divided into two parts: the back-end service “fisco-bcos-browser” and the front-end web page “fisco-bcos-browser-front”.

We also provide two ways for browser building in the current version: one-key setup and manual setup.

3.1.1 One-click setup

One-click setup is suitable for single-machine deployment of front-end and back-end to experience quickly. The detail process is introduced in Installation document.

3.1.2 Manual setup

Back-end service building

The back-end service of blockchain browser adopts JAVA back-end service, i.e., Spring Boot. The exactly building process can be referred in Installation document.

Front-end web page service building

Front-end conducts vue-cli. Also, the tutorial can be found in Installation document.

4. Initialization environment

4.1 Adding group

_images/create_group.png

Once it is set up, users can access the front-end by typing IP and its port configured by nginx through web browser. Browser without group initialization will lead to new group configuration page, where the group ID, group name and group description are needed.

Group ID should be consistent with the specific blockchain. There are many methods to check group ID:

  • acquire rpc interface.

  • console commands: Please refer to here for the console user manual of version 2.6 and above, and here for the console user manual of version 1.x

Group name should be meaningful and better understandable as a explanation of group ID.

Group description is the further illustration of the name.

4.2 Adding node

_images/add_node.png

The next step, you need to add the node information belong to the group to obtain relative information shown in blockchain browser. RPC port and P2P port of nodes can be acquired from the file config.ini in the directory of a specific node.

For easy use, the newly added group will synchronize the information of shared node which configured by other groups before.

4.3 Adding contract

On this version, the browser provides the function of contract analysis, which requires users to import all contracts the group had deployed before. User can upload zip package (only support one-level directory) to solve namesake contract issues.

Steps of import

4.3.1 Import contract

  1. Contract is required to be uploaded as *.sol file or zip package.

  2. Zip package is compatible with one-level directory at most and defaulted to be uploaded to root directory. Zip package can only contain *.sol files.

4.3.2 Compile contract

_images/contract.png

5. Functions introduction

5.1 Blockchain overview

5.1.1 Overall overview

Overall overview includes block number of the group, transaction volume, processing transaction amount and the PBFT view.

5.1.2 Transaction volume in 15 days

The transactions of the group in 15 days are shown in the line chart.

5.1.3 Node overview

Node overview includes node ID, current block height, the PBFT view and node status.

5.1.4 Block overview

Block overview includes the information of the latest four blocks, including block height, block generator, generation time and transaction volume on the block.

5.1.5 Transaction overview

Transaction overview includes the latest four transactions, including transaction hash, transaction time, transaction sender & receiver. The information invoked by transactions can also be shown if the related contract is imported correctly.

_images/overview.png

5.2 Block information

Block information includes pages of block list and block details.

5.3 Transaction information

Transaction information includes pages of transaction list and transaction details.

5.3.1 Transaction analysis

After contract is uploaded and compiled, blockchain browser can analyze the transaction method names and parameters. The analysis of the browser is based on correct import of contract. Therefore, when using JAVA or JS to call contract, please save the correct version of contract.

_images/transaction.png

5.3.2 Event analysis

After contract is uploaded and compiled, blockchain browser can analyze event method names and parameters in the transaction receipts.

Enterprise deployment tool

Introduction

FISCO BCOS generator provides companies with an easy toolkit for deployment, administration, and monitoring of multi-group consortium chain.

  • It eliminates the complexity of generating and maintaining the blockchain and offers alternative deployment methods.

  • It requires agencies to share node credentials and manage their private key but not exposed to the outsider, maintaining the security of all nodes.

  • It helps agencies deploy nodes safely through e-certificate trading, supporting equality of all nodes.

_images/toolshow.png

Design background

There cannot be exhaustive trust between equal agencies in consortium chain, where e-certificate will be needed for nodes to authenticate each other’s identity.

The certificate is the identity documentation for each agency. And the generation of the certificate depends on its public & private key pair. The private key represents its identity information that is private and strictly confidential. In the process of activation and operation, node signs on the data packet with the private key to fulfilling identity authentication. Provided that an agency’s private key is revealed, anyone else can pretend as the owner and get authorized without the affirmation of this agency.

When initializing the group of FISCO BCOS, nodes should reach an agreement to create a Genesis Block. Genesis Block, unique and only within one group, bears the identity information of the initial nodes, which is formed through e-credential exchanging.

Current IT administration tools for consortium chain usually ignore the requirement for equality and security of companies during initialization. And initialization needs agencies to agree on identity information on Genesis Block. So, who should be the information generator is crucial. Firstly, an agency generates its node information first and then activate blockchain for other nodes to join in. Secondly, a third-party authority makes information for all nodes and sends the node configuration files to each agency.

Additionally, FISCO BCOS 2.0+ adapts more private and scalable multi-group architecture. It is an architecture where data and transactions between groups are separated by running independent consensus algorithm, a way to maintain privacy and security in blockchain scenarios.

In the above models, there is always one agency who gains priority to join the consortium chain or acquires private keys of all nodes.

How to make sure the group is formed in a balanced, safe, and private way? How to guarantee reliable and effective operation of nodes? The privacy and security of group ledgers, as well as the confidentiality of group formation and maintenance, need to be achieved efficiently.

Design concept

FISCO BCOS generator is a solution designed for problems described above. It takes into consideration the equal deployment and group formation of different agencies based on flexibility, security, ease-of-use, and equality.

Flexibility:

  • No installation, ready to use

  • Alternative deployment methods

  • Allow multiple changes in architecture

Safety:

  • Allow multiple changes in architecture

  • The private key is kept internally

  • Negotiation between agencies is based on certificates only

Ease-to-use:

  • Support multiple networking models

  • Alternative commands for various needs

  • Monitor audit script

Equality:

  • The equal authority of agencies

  • All agencies co-generate Genesis Block

  • Same administrative power within groups

For consortium chain based on existed root credential, it can fast configure multiple groups on-chain to adapt for different business needs.

Each agency can generate a configuration file folder locally that includes no private key Agencies can keep their private keys internally and prevent malicious attackers in disguise of nodes or any information leakage, even if the configuration files are lost. In this way, security and usability of nodes can be achieved at the same time.

Users agree to generate the Genesis Block and node configuration file folder and then activate nodes so that they will conduct multi-group networking according to the configuration files.

Tutorial of one_click_generator.sh

The one_click_generator.sh script is a script that deploys a federated chain with one click based on the node configuration filled out by the user. The script will generate the corresponding node under the folder according to the node_deployment.ini configured under the user-specified folder.

This chapter mainly uses the networking mode of deploying 3 organizations 2 groups 6 nodes to explain the use of enterprise-level deployment tools for single-button one-button deployment.

This tutorial is suitable for single-node deployment of all nodes. The enterprise-level deployment tool multi-agent deployment tutorial can refer to Using Enterprise Deployment Tools.

Important

When using the one-click deployment script, you need to ensure that the current meta folder does not contain node certificate information. You can clean the meta folder.

Download and install

download

cd ~/
git clone https://github.com/FISCO-BCOS/generator.git

# If you have network issue for exec the command above, please try:
git clone https://gitee.com/FISCO-BCOS/generator.git

Installation

This action requires the user to have sudo privileges.

cd ~/generator && bash ./scripts/install.sh

Check if the installation is successful. If successful, output usage: generator xxx

./generator -h

Get node binary

Pull the latest fisco-bcos binary to the meta, you can try --cdn to improve your download speed.

./generator --download_fisco ./meta

Check the binary version

If successful, output FISCO-BCOS Version : x.x.x-x

./meta/fisco-bcos -v

PS: source compile Node binary user, you only need to replace the binary in the meta folder with the compiled binary.

Typical example

This section demonstrates how to use the one-click deployment function of the enterprise-level deployment tool to build a blockchain.

Node Network Topology

A networking model of a 6-node 3-institution 2 group as shown. agency B and agency C are located in Group 1 and Group 2, respectively. agency A belongs to both Group 1 and Group 2.

_images/one_click_step_3.png

Machine Environment

The IP of each node, the port number is as follows:

agency Node Group P2P Address RPC Listening Address Channel Listening Address
agency A Node 0 Group 1, 2 127.0.0.1:30300 127.0.0.1:8545 0.0.0.0:20200
Node 1 Group 1, 2 127.0.0.1:30301 127.0.0.1:8546 0.0.0.0:20201
Node 4 Group 1, 2 127.0.0.1:30304 127.0.0.1:8549 0.0.0.0:20202
agency B Node 2 Group 1 127.0.0.1:30302 127.0.0.1:8547 0.0.0.0:20203
Node 3 Group 1 127.0.0.1:30303 127.0.0.1:8548 0.0.0.0:20204
agency C Node 5 Group 1, 2 127.0.0.1:30305 127.0.0.1:8550 0.0.0.0:20205

Note

  • The public IP of the cloud host is a virtual IP. If you enter the external IP in rpc_ip/p2p_ip/channel_ip, the binding will fail. You must fill in 0.0.0.0

  • The RPC/P2P/Channel listening port must be in the range of 1024-65535, and must not conflict with other application listening ports on the machine

  • For security and ease of use consideration, FISCO BCOS v2.3.0 latest node config.ini configuration splits listen_ip into jsonrpc_listen_ip and channel_listen_ip, but still retains the parsing function of listen_ip, please refer to here

  • In order to facilitate development and experience, the reference configuration of channel_listen_ip is 0.0.0.0. For security reasons, please modify it to a safe listening address according to the actual business network situation, such as: intranet IP or specific external IP

Generate group 1 node

First, complete the operation of group A and B to set up group 1, as shown in the figure:

_images/one_click_step_1.png

Before use, the user needs to prepare a folder such as tmp_one_click, which has a directory of different organizations under the folder. Each agency directory needs to have a corresponding configuration file node_deployment.ini. Before use, you need to ensure that the generator’s meta folder has not been used.

View the one-click deployment template folder:

cd ~/generator
ls ./tmp_one_click

#Parameter explanation
# For multiple organizations, you need to create this folder manually.
Tmp_one_click # user specifies the folder for a one-click deployment operation
├── agencyA #agencyA directory, after the command is executed, the node of the agency A and related files will be generated in the list.
│ └── node_deployment.ini # Institution A node configuration file, one-click deployment command will create the corresponding node according to the data
└── agencyB #agencyB directory, after the command is executed, the node of the agency B and related files will be generated in the list.
    └── node_deployment.ini # Institution B node configuration file, one-click deployment command will generate the corresponding node according to the data
Institution to fill in node information

The configuration file is placed in the tutorial with agencyA under the tmp_one_click folder, under agencyB

Add node to group 1

Next, we add new nodes for agency A and agency C, and complete the networking shown in the following figure:

_images/one_click_step_2.png

Initialize the expansion configuration

Important

When using the one-click deployment script, you need to ensure that the current meta folder does not contain node certificate information. You can clean the meta folder.

Create an expansion folder, don’t use the same foler

mkdir ~/generator/tmp_one_click_expand/

Copy the chain certificate and private key to the expansion folder

cp ~/generator/tmp_one_click/ca.* ~/generator/tmp_one_click_expand/

Copy group 1 genesis block group.1.genesis to expansion folder

cp ~/generator/tmp_one_click/group.1.genesis ~/generator/tmp_one_click_expand/

Copy group 1 node P2P connection file peers.txt to expansion folder

cp ~/generator/tmp_one_click/peers.txt ~/generator/tmp_one_click_expand/
agency A configuration node information

Create the directory where the agency A expansion node is located.

mkdir ~/generator/tmp_one_click_expand/agencyA

At this time, the agency A already exists in the alliance chain. So it is necessary to copy the agency A certificate and the private key to the corresponding folder.

cp -r ~/generator/tmp_one_click/agencyA/agency_cert ~/generator/tmp_one_click_expand/agencyA

Important

New nodes that are expanded for group 1 need to be added to the group using SDK or console.

Registering a node with the console

Due to the large size of the console, there is no direct integration in a one-click deployment. Users can use the following command to get the console.

Getting the console may take a long time, and domestic users can use the --cdn command:

For example, if the agency A uses the console, this step needs to be switched to the generator-agency folder corresponding to the agency A.

cd ~/generator/tmp_one_click/agencyA/generator-agency

./generator --download_console ./ --cdn
Viewing agency A node-4 information

agency A uses the console to join the agency A node 4 as the consensus node, where the second parameter needs to be replaced with the nodeid of the joining node, and the nodeid is the node.nodeid of the conf of the node folder.

View the agency A node nodeid:

cat ~/generator/tmp_one_click_expand/agencyA/node/node_127.0.0.1_30304/conf/node.nodeid

ea2ca519148cafc3e92c8d9a8572b41ea2f62d0d19e99273ee18cccd34ab50079b4ec82fe5f4ae51bd95dd788811c97153ece8c05eac7a5ae34c96454c4d3123
Registering Consensus Nodes Using the Console

Start the console:

cd ~/generator/tmp_one_click/agencyA/generator-agency/console && bash ./start.sh 1

Use the console addSealer command to register the node as a consensus node. In this step, you need to use the cat command to view the node node.nodeid of the agency A node:

addSealer ea2ca519148cafc3e92c8d9a8572b41ea2f62d0d19e99273ee18cccd34ab50079b4ec82fe5f4ae51bd95dd788811c97153ece8c05eac7a5ae34c96454c4d3123

{
	"code":0,
	"msg":"success"
}

exit console：

exit
Viewing agency C Node 5

agency A uses the console to join node 5 of agency C as the observation node, where the second parameter needs to be replaced with the nodeid of the joining node, and the nodeid is the node.nodeid file of the conf of the node folder.

View the agency C node nodeid:

cat ~/generator/tmp_one_click_expand/agencyC/node/node_127.0.0.1_30305/conf/node.nodeid

Registering an observation node using the console

Start the console:

cd ~/generator/tmp_one_click/agencyA/generator-agency/console && bash ./start.sh 1

Use the console addObserver command to register the node as a watch node. In this step, you need to use the cat command to view the node #node.nodeid` of the agency C node:

addObserver 5d70e046047e15a68aff8e32f2d68d1f8d4471953496fd97b26f1fbdc18a76720613a34e3743194bd78aa7acb59b9fa9aec9ec668fa78c54c15031c9e16c9e8d

At this point, we have completed the operation of adding a new node to an existing group.

Existing Node New Group 2

The operation of the new group can be done by modifying the ./conf/group_genesis.ini file in the directory where the one_click_generator.sh is executed and executing the --create_group_genesis command.

Generate group 2 as shown in Figure 4

Configure Group 2 genesis block

     This operation needs to be performed under the above operation generator.

cd ~/generator

Configuring the group genesis block file. Add nodeX=ip:port under [nodes] which belong to the members of new group. For example they are: AgencyA-Node0, AgencyA-Node1, AgencyA-Node4 and AgencyC-Node5.

enterprise deployment tools

FISCO BCOS enterprise deployment tools are designed for multi-agency production environments. For ensure the security of the agency’s private keys, enterprise deployment tools provide agencies’ collaboration to deploy an alliance chain.

This chapter will demonstrate how to use enterprise deployment tools by deploying a 6 nodes 3 agencies 2 groups alliance chain. For more parameter options, please refer to here.

This chapter is a process that multi-agency peer-to-peer deployment and a situation that the private key of the agency does not come out of intranet. The tutorial for generating configuration files of all agency nodes through a single agency’s click start can refer to FISCO BCOS Enterprise Deployment Tool ClickStart deployment.

PS: If someone wants to use Source Code Compile fisco-bcos binary, they need to replace the binary in the meta folder with the compiled binary.

Typical example

For ensure the security of the agency’s private keys, enterprise deployment tools provide a secure way to build chain between agencies. This chapter will demonstrate how to make a chain between agencies in a deployment model of 6 nodes 3 agencies 2 groups.

Node networking overview

A networking model of 6 nodes 3 agencies 2 groups is shown as follows. Agency B and agency C is located in Group 1 and Group 2, and agency A belongs to both Group 1 and Group 2.

_images/tutorial_step_2.png

Machine address

The IP address of each node and port are as follows:

Agency Node Group P2P address RPC listening address channel listening IP
agencyA node0 group1,2 127.0.0.1:30300 127.0.0.1:8545 0.0.0.0:20200
node1 group1,2 127.0.0.1:30301 127.0.0.1:8546 0.0.0.0:20201

node3 group1 127.0.0.1:30303 127.0.0.1:8548 0.0.0.0:20203
agencyC node4 group2 127.0.0.1:30304 127.0.0.1:8549 0.0.0.0:20204
node5 group2 127.0.0.1:30305 127.0.0.1:8550 0.0.0.0:20205

Note

  • The public IP of the cloud host is a virtual IP. If you enter the external IP in rpc_ip/p2p_ip/channel_ip, the binding will fail. You must fill in 0.0.0.0

  • The RPC/P2P/Channel listening port must be in the range of 1024-65535, and must not conflict with other application listening ports on the machine

  • For security and ease of use consideration, FISCO BCOS v2.3.0 latest node config.ini configuration splits listen_ip into jsonrpc_listen_ip and channel_listen_ip, but still retains the parsing function of listen_ip, please refer to here

  • In order to facilitate development and experience, the reference configuration of channel_listen_ip is 0.0.0.0. For security reasons, please modify it to a safe listening address according to the actual business network situation, such as: intranet IP or specific external IP

cooperate agencies

Building chain involves the cooperation between multiple agencies, including:

  • Certificate authority agency

  • alliance chain member agency(next named “agency”)

Key process

In this section, we briefly provide How Certificate authority agency and alliance chain member agency cooperate to build a blockchain.

1. Initialize chain certificate

  1. Certificate authority agency operation:

    • Generate chain certificate

2. Generate group 1

  1. Certificate authority agency operations

    • generate agency certificate

    • send the certificate to agencies

  2. Operation between agencies

    • modify the configuration file node_deployment.ini

    • generate node certificate and node P2P port address file peers.txt

  3. Select one of the agencies to create group.genesis

    • collect all node certificates in the group

    • modify configuration file group_genesis.ini

    • generate genesis block files for the group

    • distribute genesis block files to other agencies

  4. Operation between agencies: generating nodes

    • collect P2P port address files of other nodes in the group

    • generate node

    • start node

3. Initialize a new institution

  1. Certificate authority agency operations

    • generate agency certificate

    • send the certificate to the new agency

4. Generate group2

  1. New agency operation

    • modify the configuration file node_deployment.ini

    • generate node certificate and node P2P port address file

  2. Select one of the agencies as a group to create genesis block

    • collect all node certificates in the group

    • modify configuration file group_genesis.ini

    • generate genesis block files for the group

    • distribute genesis block files to other agency

  3. New agency independent operation: create nodes

    • collect P2P port address files of other nodes in the group

    • generate nodes

    • start nodes

  4. Existing agency’s operations: configure new groups

    • collect P2P port address files of other nodes in the group

    • configure P2P port address of the new group and the new nodes

    • restart nodes

5. Existing nodes join group 1

  1. Group 1 original agency operation:

    • send group 1 genesis block to the existing node

    • configure console

    • get the entering node nodeid

    • add nodes to group1 by using console

Chain initialization

All the operations in this example are performed on the local machine. We use different catalogs to simulate various agencies’ environment and use the file copy operation to simulate the sending in the network. After performing Download and Install in the tutorial, please copy the generator to the corresponding agency’s generator directory.

Institutional initialization

We use generator downloaded from the tutorial as certificate agency.

Initialize agencyA

cp -r ~/generator ~/generator-A

Initialize agencyB

cp -r ~/generator ~/generator-B
Initialize chain certificate

A single chain has a unique ca.crt.

use --generate_chain_certificate to generate chain certificate

Operate in the certificate agency directory:

cd ~/generator

./generator --generate_chain_certificate ./dir_chain_ca

view the chain certificate and the private key:

ls ./dir_chain_ca

# the above order has explained
# From left to right,  they are chain's certificate, and chain's private key.
ca.crt  ca.key

AgencyA, B to build group 1

Initialize agencyA

In the tutorial, for operating simply, the certificate of agency and the private key are directly generated. In actual application, the private key agency.key should be created locally by agency first, and then the certificate request file is made, and the certificate agency.crt is obtained from the certificate agency

Operate in the certificate directory:

cd ~/generator

Generate agencyA certificate:

./generator --generate_agency_certificate ./dir_agency_ca ./dir_chain_ca agencyA

View agency certificate and the private key:

ls dir_agency_ca/agencyA/

# From left to right, they are agency's certificate, and agency's private key
agency.crt  agency.key  ca.crt

For sending the chain certificate, agency certificate, and agency private key to agencyA, we use an example is to send the certificate from the certificate agency to the corresponding agency through the file copy, and put the certificate in the subdirectory of meta which is agency’s working directory.

cp ./dir_agency_ca/agencyA/* ~/generator-A/meta/
Initialize agencyB

Operate in the certificate directory:

cd ~/generator

Generate agencyB certificate:

./generator --generate_agency_certificate ./dir_agency_ca ./dir_chain_ca agencyB

For sending the chain certificate, agency certificate, and agency private key to agencyB, we use an example is to send the certificate from the certificate agency to the corresponding agency through the file copy, and put the certificate in the subdirectory of meta which is agency’s working directory.

cp ./dir_agency_ca/agencyB/* ~/generator-B/meta/

Important

Only one root certificate, ca.crt, can be used in an alliance chain. Do not generate multiple root certificates and private keys when deploying various servers. A group can only have one genesis block group.x.genesis.

AgencyA modifies configuration file

node_deployment.ini is the node configuration file. Enterprise deployment tool generates the corresponding node certificate according to the configuration of node_deployment.ini and the node configuration folder etc..

AgencyA modifies the node_deployment.ini in the conf folder, as shown below:

Execute the following command in the ~/generator-A directory

cd ~/generator-A

cat > ./conf/node_deployment.ini << EOF

AgencyA generates and sends node information

Execute the following command in the ~/generator-A directory

cd ~/generator-A

AgencyA generates the node certificate and the P2P connection information file. In this step, we need to use the above configuration node_deployment.ini and the agency certificate and private key in the agency meta folder.

./generator --generate_all_certificates ./agencyA_node_info

view generated files:

ls ./agencyA_node_info

# From left to right, they are the node certificate that needs to have interacted with the agencyA and the file that node P2P connects to the address (the node information of agency generated by the node_deployment.ini)
cert_127.0.0.1_30300.crt cert_127.0.0.1_30301.crt peers.txt

When the agency generates a node, it needs to specify the node P2P connection address of other nodes. Therefore, AgencyA needs to send the node P2P connection address file to AgencyB.

cp ./agencyA_node_info/peers.txt ~/generator-B/meta/peersA.txt
AgencyB generates and sends node information

Execute the following command in the ~/generator-B directory

cd ~/generator-B

AgencyB generates the node certificate and the P2P connection information file:

./generator --generate_all_certificates ./agencyB_node_info

The agency that generates the genesis block needs the node certificate. In the example, the agencyA generates the genesis block. Therefore, in addition to sending the node P2P connection address file, the agencyB needs to send the node certificate to agencyA.

Send certificate to agencyA

cp ./agencyB_node_info/cert*.crt ~/generator-A/meta/

Send the node P2P connection address file to agencyA

cp ./agencyB_node_info/peers.txt ~/generator-A/meta/peersB.txt
AgencyA generates the genesis block of group1

Execute the following command in the ~/generator-A directory

cd ~/generator-A

AgencyA modifies group_genesis.ini in the conf folder. For configuration items, refer to Manuals:

cat > ./conf/group_genesis.ini << EOF
[group]
group_id=1

[nodes]
node0=127.0.0.1:30300
node1=127.0.0.1:30301
node2=127.0.0.1:30302
node3=127.0.0.1:30303
EOF

After the command is executed, the ./conf/group_genesis.ini file will be modified:

;command interpretation
[group]
;group id
group_id=1

[nodes]
;AgencyA node p2p address
node0=127.0.0.1:30300
;AgencyA node p2p address
node1=127.0.0.1:30301
;AgencyB node p2p address
node2=127.0.0.1:30302
;AgencyB node p2p address
node3=127.0.0.1:30303

In the tutorial, we choose agencyA to generate genesis block of the group. But in the actual production, you can negotiate with alliance chain committee to make a choice.

This step will generate the genesis block of group_genesis.ini according to the node certificate configured in the meta folder of agencyA. In the tutorial, the agencyA’s meta is required to have the node certificates name as cert_127.0.0.1_30300.crt, cert_127.0.0.1_30301.crt, cert_127.0.0.1_30302.crt, cert_127.0.0.1_30303.crt. This step requires the node certificate of agencyB.

./generator --create_group_genesis ./group

Send group.1.genesis to AgencyB:

cp ./group/group.1.genesis ~/generator-B/meta
AgencyA generates the node to which it belongs

Execute the following command in the ~/generator-A directory

cd ~/generator-A

AgencyA generates the node to which it belongs. This command generates the corresponding node configuration folder according to the user-configured file node_deployment.ini:

Note: The node P2P connection information peers.txt specified in this step is the connect information of other nodes in the group. In the case of multiple agencies networking, they need to be merged.

AgencyB generates the node to which it belongs. This command generates the corresponding node configuration folder according to the user-configured file node_deployment.ini:

./generator --build_install_package ./meta/peersA.txt ./nodeB

AgencyB startups node:

bash ./nodeB/start_all.sh

Note

Startup node only needs to send the node folder corresponding to IP address. For example, the server of 127.0.0.1 only needs the node configuration folder corresponding to node_127.0.0.1_port. When deploying multiple machines, you only need to send the generated node folder to the corresponding server.

By now, we have completed the operation of agencyA,B to build group1 as shown:

_images/tutorial_step_1.png

Certificate authority initialize agencyC

Operate in the certificate generator directory:

cd ~/generator

Initialize agencyC Note. Now there is a chain certificate and a private key in the generator directory. In the actual environment, agencyC cannot obtain the chain certificate and the private key.

cp -r ~/generator ~/generator-C

Generate agencyC certificate:

./generator --generate_agency_certificate ./dir_agency_ca ./dir_chain_ca agencyC

View agency certificate and private key:

ls dir_agency_ca/agencyC/

# command interpretation
# From left to right, they are agency's certificate, agency's private key, and chain's certificate
agency.crt  agency.key  ca.crt

For sending the chain certificate, agency certificate, and agency private key to agencyA, we use an example is to send the certificate from the certificate agency to the corresponding agency through the file copy, and put the certificate in the subdirectory of meta which is agency’s working directory.

cp ./dir_agency_ca/agencyC/* ~/generator-C/meta/

AgencyA,C build group2

Next, agencyC needs to perform a new group establishment operation with agencyA. We take an example of agencyC generating genesis block.

AgencyA sends node information

Since agencyA has generated the node certificate and the peers file, we only need to send the previous generated node P2P connection information and the node certificate to agencyC as follows:

Execute the following command in the ~/generator-A directory

cd ~/generator-A

In the example, the genesis block of the group is generated by agencyC. Therefore the node certificate of agencyA and the node P2P connection address file are required, and the above file is sent to agencyC.

Send certificate to agencyC

cp ./agencyA_node_info/cert*.crt ~/generator-C/meta/

Send node P2P connection address file to agencyC

cp ./agencyA_node_info/peers.txt ~/generator-C/meta/peersA.txt
AgencyC modifies configuration file

AgencyC modifies node_deployment.ini in the conf folder as shown below:

Execute the following command in the ~/generator-C directory.

cd ~/generator-C

cat > ./conf/node_deployment.ini << EOF
[group]
group_id=2

[node0]
; host ip for the communication among peers.
; Please use your ssh login ip.
p2p_ip=127.0.0.1
; listen ip for the communication between sdk clients.
; This ip is the same as p2p_ip for physical host.
; But for virtual host e.g. vps servers, it is usually different from p2p_ip.
; You can check accessible addresses of your network card.
; Please see https://tecadmin.net/check-ip-address-ubuntu-18-04-desktop/

AgencyC generates and sends node information

Execute the following command in the ~/generator-C directory.

cd ~/generator-C

AgencyC generates node certificate and P2P connection information file:

./generator --generate_all_certificates ./agencyC_node_info

View generated file:

ls ./agencyC_node_info

# command interpretation
# From left to right, they are the node certificate that needs to have interacted with the agencyA and the file that node P2P connects to the address (the node information of agency generated by the node_deployment.ini)
cert_127.0.0.1_30304.crt cert_127.0.0.1_30305.crt peers.txt

When the agency generates a node, it needs to specify the node P2P connection address of other nodes. Therefore, agencyC needs to send the node P2P connection address file to agencyA.

cp ./agencyC_node_info/peers.txt ~/generator-A/meta/peersC.txt
AgencyC generates genesis block of group2

Execute the following command in the ~/generator-C directory.

cd ~/generator-C

AgencyC modifies group_genesis.ini in the conf folder as shown below:

cat > ./conf/group_genesis.ini << EOF
[group]
group_id=2

[nodes]
node0=127.0.0.1:30300
node1=127.0.0.1:30301
node2=127.0.0.1:30304
node3=127.0.0.1:30305
EOF

./conf/group_genesis.ini file will be modified after the command is executed:

;command interpretation
[group]
group_id=2

[nodes]
node0=127.0.0.1:30300
;agencyA node p2p address
node1=127.0.0.1:30301
;agencyA node p2p address
node2=127.0.0.1:30304
;agencyC node p2p address
node3=127.0.0.1:30305
;agencyC node p2p address

In the tutorial, agency C is chosen to generate a genesis block of the group. In the actual production, you can negotiate with the alliance chain committee to determine.

This step generates a genesis block of group_genesis.ini configuration according to the node certificate configured in the meta folder of agencyC.

./generator --create_group_genesis ./group

Distribute genesis block of group2 to agencyA:

cp ./group/group.2.genesis ~/generator-A/meta/
AgencyC generates the node to which it belongs

Execute the following command in the ~/generator-C directory

cd ~/generator-C

./generator --build_install_package ./meta/peersA.txt ./nodeC

AgencyC startups node:

bash ./nodeC/start_all.sh

By now, we have completed the construction of agencyA, C to build group2 as shown:

_images/tutorial_step_2.png

Extended Tutorial–agencyC node joins group1

Adding a node to an existing group requires users to send command by console. The example of adding nodes to the group is as follows:

Now there are nodes of agencyA, B and B in group1. Adding the node of agencyC to group1 needs to get the permission of the nodes in the group. To take the node of agencyA as an example:

Execute the following command in the ~/generator-A directory.

cd ~/generator-A
Send gensis block of group1 to agencyC

Send the configuration file of group1 to agencyC.

./generator --add_group ./group/group.1.genesis  ~/generator-C/nodeC

Restart agencyC’s node:

bash ~/generator-C/nodeC/stop_all.sh

bash ~/generator-C/nodeC/start_all.sh
Configure console

agencyA’s configure console or Java SDK. In the tutorial, console is used as an example:

Note: This command will complete the console configuration according to the node and group in the user-configured node_deployment.ini. User can directly start the console. Please ensure that java is installed before starting.

./generator --download_console ./
View agencyC node4 information

AgencyA uses the console to join agencyC node4 as observation node. The second parameter needs to be replaced with the joining node ‘nodeid’, which locates in the node.nodeid file of the node folder conf.

In this tutorial, we have generated a multi-group architecture alliance chain with a network topology of 3 agencies, 2 groups, and 6 nodes.

If you have problems with this tutorial, please view FAQ.

Download & install

Environment dependency

Dependency of FISCO BCOS generator:

Dependent software Supported version
python 2.7+ or 3.6+
openssl 1.0.2k+
curl default version
nc default version

Download & install

Download

$ git clone https://github.com/FISCO-BCOS/generator.git

# If you have network issue for exec the command above, please try:
$ git clone https://gitee.com/FISCO-BCOS/generator.git

Install

$ cd generator
$ bash ./scripts/install.sh

Check if it is installed successfully.

$ ./generator -h
# if succeed, output usage: generator xxx

Pull node binaries

Pull the latest fisco-bcos binary files to meta.

$ ./generator --download_fisco ./meta

Check binaries version.

$ ./meta/fisco-bcos -v
# if succeed, output FISCO-BCOS Version : x.x.x-x

PS：Source code compilation node binaries user need only to put the compiled binaries to meta directory.

Config file

The config files of FISCO BCOS generator are placed under ./conf folder, including group’s genesis block config file group_genesis.ini, node config file node_deployment.ini.

The user configures node config file folder by operations on files under the conf folder.

Metadata folder meta

The meta folder of FISCO BCOS generator is metadata folder to store fisco-bcos binaries, chain certificate ca.crt, agency certificate agency.crt, agency private key and node certificate, group genesis block file, and so on.

The format of stored certificates should be cert_p2pip_port.crt. For example: cert_127.0.0.1_30300.crt.

FISCO BCOS generator will generate nodes config file according to the certificates under the meta folder and the config files under the conf folder.

group_genesis.ini

Through modifying the configuration of group_genesis.ini, the user generates a configuration of new group genesis block under the specific directory and meta folder. Such as group.1.genesis.

[group]
group_id=1

[nodes]
;node p2p address of group genesis block
node0=127.0.0.1:30300
node1=127.0.0.1:30301
node2=127.0.0.1:30302
node3=127.0.0.1:30303

Important

Node certificate is needed during generating genesis block. In the above case, the config file needs 4 nodes’ certificates, which are: cert_127.0.0.1_30301.crt, cert_127.0.0.1_30302.crt, cert_127.0.0.1_30303.crt and cert_127.0.0.1_30304.crt.

node_deployment.ini

Through modifying node_deployment.ini configuration, user can use –build_install_package command to generate node config file containing no private key under a specific folder. Each section[node] configured by the user is the needed node config file folder. section[peers] is the p2p information for connection with other nodes.

For example:

[group]
group_id=1

# Owned nodes
[node0]
p2p_ip=127.0.0.1
rpc_ip=127.0.0.1
channel_ip=0.0.0.0
p2p_listen_port=30300
channel_listen_port=20200
jsonrpc_listen_port=8545

[node1]
p2p_ip=127.0.0.1
rpc_ip=127.0.0.1
channel_ip=0.0.0.0
p2p_listen_port=30301
channel_listen_port=20201
jsonrpc_listen_port=8546

Read the node config command. To generate node certificate and node config file folder will need to read the config file.

Template folder tpl

The template folder of the generator is as below:

├── config.toml # sdk config file
├── config.ini # node config file template
├── config.ini.gm # OSCCA node config file template
├── group.i.genesis # group genesis block template
├── group.i.ini # group block configuration template
├── start.sh  # start node script template
├── start_all.sh # start nodes in batch script template
├── stop.sh # stop node script template
└── stop_all.sh # stop nodes in batch template

To modify the consensus algorithm of node and the configured default DB, the user only needs to alter the configuration of config.ini, re-execute the commands to set relative node information.

For details of FISCO BCOS configuration please check FISCO BCOS config file

P2p node connection file peers.txt

P2P node connection file peers.txt is the node connection information of the other agencies specified when generating node config file folder. When executing build_install_package command, it’s needed to determine the p2p node connection file peers.txt, according to which node config file folder will start communication with other nodes.

User that executes generate_all_certificates command generates peers.txt according to the node_deployment.ini filled under conf directory. The user that adopts other ways to generate certificate needs to generate p2p node connection file manually and send to peers. The format of the p2p node connection file is:

127.0.0.1:30300
127.0.0.1:30301

Format like this: node ip:p2p_listen_port

  • for multi-agency node communication, the files need to be combined

Operation Tutorial

Premise of use user needs to configure group_genesis.ini and node certificates under meta folder
Parameter setting assign and generate node configuration file folder for group
Function generate a configuration of the new group under the assigned section according to the user of the certificate configured under meta folder
Adaptable scenario the existed nodes on consortium chain needs to form new group

Operation Tutorial

$ cp node0/node.crt ./meta/cert_127.0.0.1_3030n.crt
...
$ vim ./conf/group_genesis.ini
$ ./generator --create_group_genesis ~/mydata

After the program is executed, group.i.genesis of mgroup.ini will be generated under ~/mydata folder.

The generated group.i.genesis is the Genesis Block of the new group.

Note

In FISCO BCOS 2.0+, each group has one Genesis Block.

build_install_package (-b)
Command description deploy new node and new group
Premise of use user needs to configure node_deployment.ini and assign p2p connection file
Parameter setting assign file folder for the location of configuration file folder
Function generate node configuration file folder according to Genesis Block, node certificate and node information
Adaptable scenario generate node configuration file folder

Operation Tutorial

$ vim ./conf/node_deployment.ini
$ ./generator --build_install_package ./peers.txt ~/mydata

After the program is executed, a few file folders named node_hostip_port will be generated under ~/mydata folder and pushed to the relative server to activate the node.

generate_chain_certificate
Command description generate root certificate
Premise of use no
Parameter setting assign file folder for root certificate
Function generate root certificate and private key under assigned section
Adaptable scenario user needs to generate self-sign root certificate 
$ ./generator --generate_chain_certificate ./dir_chain_ca

Now, user can find root certificate ca.crt and private key ca.key under ./dir_chain_ca folder.

generate_agency_certificate
Command description generate agency certificate
Premise of use root certificate and private key have been created
Parameter setting assign section for agency certificate, chain certificate, and private key and create agency name
Function generate agency certificate and private key under assigned section
Adaptable scenario user needs to create self-sign agency certificate 
$ ./generator --generate_agency_certificate ./dir_agency_ca ./chain_ca_dir The_Agency_Name

Now, user can locate The_Agency_Name folder containing agency certificate agency.crt and private key agency.key through route ./dir_agency_ca.

generate_node_certificate
Command description generate node certificate
Premise of use agency certificate and private key have been created
Parameter setting assign section for node certificate, agency certificate, and private key and create node name
Function generate node certificate and private key under assigned section
Adaptable scenario user need to create self-sign node certificate 
$ ./generator --generate_node_certificate node_dir(SET) ./agency_dir  node_p2pip_port

Then user can locate node certificate node.crt and private key node.key through route node_dir.

generate_sdk_certificate
Command description generate SDK certificate
Premise of use agency certificate and private key have been created
Parameter setting assign section for node certificate, agency certificate and private key and create node name

generate_all_certificates
Command description generate certificates and private key according to node_deployment.ini
Premise of use no
Parameter setting assign section for node certificate
Function create private key and node certificate under meta folder, generate node certificate for exchanging and p2p connection file under assigned section according to node_deployment.ini
Adaptable scenario user needs to transfer data with other nodes 
$ ./generator --generate_all_certificates ./cert

Note

the above command will create node certificate according to ca.crt, agency.crt and agency.key of meta folder.

  • absence of any of the above 3 files will fail the creation of node certificate, and the program will throw an exception

Once the execution is done, user can find node certificate and private key under ./cert folder, and node certificate under ./meta folder.

merge_config (-m)

--merge_config command can merge p2p sections of 2 config.ini

For instance, the p2p section in config.ini of A is:

[p2p]
listen_ip = 127.0.0.1
listen_port = 30300
node.0 = 127.0.0.1:30300
node.1 = 127.0.0.1:30301
node.2 = 127.0.0.1:30302
node.3 = 127.0.0.1:30303

The p2p section in config.ini of B is:

[p2p]
listen_ip = 127.0.0.1
listen_port = 30303
node.0 = 127.0.0.1:30300
node.1 = 127.0.0.1:30303
node.2 = 127.0.0.1:30300
node.3 = 127.0.0.1:30301

The command will result in:

[p2p]
listen_ip = 127.0.0.1
listen_port = 30304
node.0 = 127.0.0.1:30300
node.1 = 127.0.0.1:30301
node.2 = 127.0.0.1:30302
node.3 = 127.0.0.1:30303
node.4 = 127.0.0.1:30300
node.5 = 127.0.0.1:30301

For example:

$ ./generator --merge_config ~/mydata/node_A/config.ini  ~/mydata/node_B/config.ini

When it works, the p2p sections in config.ini of node_A and node_B will be merged to ~/mydata/node_B/config.ini

deploy_private_key (-d)

--deploy_private_key command will import the private key of nodes with same name to the generated configuration file folder

For example:

$./generator --deploy_private_key ./cert ./data

If ./cert contains file folders named node_127.0.0.1_30300 and node_127.0.0.1_30301, which are placed with node private key node.key,

./data contains file folders named node_127.0.0.1_30300 and node_127.0.0.1_30301,

then this command would import private key under./cert to ./data folder

add_peers (-p)

--add_peers command can import the files of assigned peers to the generated node configuration file folder.

For example:

$./generator --add_peers ./meta/peers.txt ./data

If ./data contains configuration file folder named node_127.0.0.1_30300 and node_127.0.0.1_30301, then this command will import peers file with connection information to the node configuration files config.ini under ./data.

add_group (-a)

--add_group command will import assigned peers file to the generated node configuration file folder.

For example:

$./generator --add_group ./meta/group.2.genesis ./data

If ./data contains configuration file folder named node_127.0.0.1_30300 and node_127.0.0.1_30301, then this command will import connection information of Group 2 to conf folder of all nodes under ./data.

download_fisco

--download_fisco can download fisco-bcos binary file under assigned section.

For example:

$./generator --download_fisco ./meta

This command will download fisco-bcos executable binary file under ./meta folder.

download_console

--download_consolecan download and control console under assigned section.

For example:

$./generator --download_console ./meta

This command will configure the console under ./meta folder according to node_deployment.ini.

get_sdk_file

--get_sdk_file command can acquire sdk.crt, sdk.key, ca.crt that are needed in configuration of console and sdk under assigned section.

For example:

$./generator --get_sdk_file ./sdk

This command will generate the above configuration file according to node_deployment.ini under ./sdk

version (-v)

--version command can help view the version code of current deployment tool.

$ ./generator --version

help (-h)

User can use -h or –help command to check help list

For example:

$ ./generator -h
usage: generator [-h] [-v] [-b peer_path data_dir] [-c data_dir]
                 [--generate_chain_certificate chain_dir]
                 [--generate_agency_certificate agency_dir chain_dir agency_name]
                 [--generate_node_certificate node_dir agency_dir node_name]
                 [--generate_sdk_certificate sdk_dir agency_dir] [-g]
                 [--generate_all_certificates cert_dir] [-d cert_dir pkg_dir]
                 [-m config.ini config.ini] [-p peers config.ini]
                 [-a group genesis config.ini]

Operation in OSCCA standard (China)

All the commands in FISCO BCOS generator are adaptable for OSCCA version of fisco-bcos (oscca-approved encryption). When using this version, every certificate and private key should be prefixed with gm. The description reads below:

On-off switch (-g command)

Once -g command is executed, all the operations concerning certificates, nodes, and group Genesis Block will generate the above files of OSCCA standard.

generate certificate

When executing generate_*_certificate together with -g command, the generated certificate will be in OSCCA standard.

For example:

./generator --generate_all_certificates ./cert -g

Note

The above command will generate node certificate according to gmca.crt, agency certificate gmagency.crt, and agency private key gmagency.key placed under meta folder.

  • Absence of any one of the three files will fail the generation of node certificate, and the program will throw an exception.

generate group Genesis Block in OSCCA standard

For example:

$ cp node0/gmnode.crt ./meta/gmcert_127.0.0.1_3030n.crt
...
$ vim ./conf/group_genesis.ini
$ ./generator --create_group_genesis ~/mydata -g

After executing this program, the user can locate group.i.genesis in mgroup.ini under ~/mydata folder.

group.i.genesis is the Genesis Block of the new group.

generate node configuration file folder in OSCCA standard

For example:

$ vim ./conf/node_deployment.ini
$ ./generator --build_install_package ./peers.txt ~/mydata -g

After executing the program, multiple folders named node_hostip_port will be generated under ~/mydata folder and pushed to the relative server to activate the node.

Monitoring design

FISCO BCOS generator has a preset monitoring script in all generated node configuration folders. Warning information of node will be sent to the IP address assigned by the user after configuration. FISCO BCOS generator places the monitoring script under the assigned section for node configuration files. If the user assigns the folder named “data”, then the user can locate it under the monitor folder of the data section.

For example:

$ cd ./data/monitor

Purpose of use:

  1. to monitor the status of nodes, to reactive node

  2. to acquire block number of node and view information, to ensure the consensus of nodes

  3. to analyze printing of node logs in last 1 minutes, to collect critical errors information of printed logs, to monitor the status of nodes in real-time

  4. to assign log file or period, to analyze data of consensus message management, block generation, and transaction volume and node’s health.

Warning service configuration

Before using this service, the user needs to configure the warning service. Here we take the WeChat notification of server酱 as an example. You can read the configuration as reference: server酱

The user associates it with personal GitHub account and WeChat account, then uses -s command of this script to send a warning message to the associated WeChat.

If the user wants to try different services, the user can personalize the service by modifying alarm() {

# change HTTP server

} function of monitor.sh

Help command

The way to check the usage of the script by the help command

$ ./monitor.sh -h
Usage : bash monitor.sh
   -s : send alert to your address
   -m : monitor, statistics.  default : monitor .
   -f : log file to be analyzed.
   -o : dirpath
   -p : name of the monitored program , default is fisco-bcos
   -g : specified the group list to be analyzed
   -d : log analyze time range. default : 10(min), it should not bigger than max value : 60(min).
   -r : setting alert receiver
   -h : help.
 example :
   bash  monitor.sh -s YourHttpAddr -o nodes -r your_name
   bash  monitor.sh -s YourHttpAddr -m statistics -o nodes -r your_name
   bash  monitor.sh -s YourHttpAddr -m statistics -f node0/log/log_2019021314.log -g 1 2 -r your_name

Command description:

  • -s assign the configuration address of warning service. It can be the ip of warning notification.

  • -m set monitor mode to statistics or monitor. Monitor is the default mode.

  • -f analyze node log

  • -o assign location of node

  • -p set notification name. “fisco-bcos” is the default one.

  • -g assign group to be monitored. All group is defaulted to be monitored.

  • -d time scope of log analysis. Default to be within 10 minutes and 60 minutes as the maximum

  • -r assign the receiver of warning notification

  • -h help command

For example

  • use script to monitor status of assigned nodes, send message to receiver Alice:

$ bash monitor.sh -s https://sc.ftqq.com/[SCKEY(登入后可见)].send -o alice/nodes -r Alice

  • use script to collect node information and send message to Alice:

$ bash monitor.sh -s https://sc.ftqq.com/[SCKEY(登入后可见)].send -m statistics -o alice/nodes -r Alice

  • use script to collect information of group 1 and group 2 of specific node log, send message to Alice:

$ bash monitor.sh -s https://sc.ftqq.com/[SCKEY(replace by your code)].send -m statistics -f node0/log/log_2019021314.log -g 1 2 -o alice/nodes -r Alice

handshake failed checked

The check_certificates.sh script in the scripts folder of FISCO BCOS generator contains anomaly detection with error message handshake failed in node log.

Acquire test script

If the user needs to test node generated by build_chain.sh, the following command can help acquire test script:

curl -#LO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/FISCO-BCOS/generator/master/scripts/check_certificates.sh && chmod u+x check_certificates.sh

Note

  • If the script cannot be downloaded for a long time due to network problems, try curl -#LO https://gitee.com/FISCO-BCOS/generator/raw/master/scripts/check_certificates.sh && chmod u+x check_certificates.sh

The user that deployed node with a generator can acquire script from scripts/check_certificates.sh under the root directory of the generator.

Test valid date of certificate

-t command of check_certificates.sh can test certificate by comparing the valid date with the current system time.

Example:

$ ./check_certificates.sh -t ~/certificates.crt

The second parameter can be any x509 certificate that prompt check certificates time successfully after passing verification or exception if it is failing.

Certificate verification

-v command of check_certificates.sh will verify node certificate according to the root certificate set by user.

$ ./check_certificates.sh -v ~/ca.crt ~/node.crt

After successful verification, it will prompt use ~/ca.crt verify ~/node.crt successful, or prompt exception if it is failing.

Node configuration error checking

Acquire script
curl -#LO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/FISCO-BCOS/FISCO-BCOS/master-2.0/tools/check_node_config.sh && chmod u+x check_node_config.sh

Note

  • If the script cannot be downloaded for a long time due to network problems, try curl -#LO https://gitee.com/FISCO-BCOS/FISCO-BCOS/raw/master-2.0/tools/check_node_config.sh

使用

Using the following command, the script -p option specifies the node path, and the script will analyze the configuration errors based on config. ini under the path.

bash check_node_config.sh -p node_127.0.0.1_30300

JSON-RPC API

The following examples in this chapter adopt the curl command, which is a data transfer tool that runs the command line by the URL language. JSON-RPC API of FISCO BCOS can be accessed by sending HTTP post request through curl commands. The URL address of the curl command is set as [jsonrpc_listen_ip](If the node is less than v2.3.0, set as the configuration item listen_ip) and [jsonrpc listen port] of [rpc] in a node config file. To format the json data, jq is used as a formatter. For the error codes, please check the RPC Design Documentation. For the transaction receipt status, please check here.
