Hyperledger Sawtooth

Hyperledger Sawtooth - PoET Developer's Setup Guide

If you are planning to contribute code to the Sawtooth PoET project, please review the contributing guide: [CONTRIBUTING.md]

Supported operating systems: Ubuntu 16.04 and macOS

If you want to use a Windows system, we recommend that you install Ubuntu 16.04 in a virtual machine manager, such as Hyper-V or VirtualBox, and develop from the guest operating system.

Note: All commands in this guide use the Bash shell. While the Bash shell is not strictly required as the command shell, many of the scripts in the build system are Bash scripts and require Bash to execute.

Step One: Install Docker

The Sawtooth POET requirements are:

  • Docker Community Edition (version 17.05.0-ce or newer)
  • Docker Compose (version 1.21.0 or newer)

Install the Docker software.

macOS:

Ubuntu:

Note: The minimum version of Docker Engine necessary is 17.03.0-ce. Linux distributions often ship with older versions of Docker.

Next, add your username to the group docker to avoid having to run every docker command as a sudo. (Otherwise, you will need to prefix each command in Step Four, Step Five, and Step Six with sudo.) Run the following command:

$ sudo adduser $USER docker

Note: If $USER is not set in the environment on your system, replace $USER in the previous command with your username.

You will need to log out and log back in to your system for the change in group membership to take effect.

Step Two: Configure Proxy (Optional)

If you are behind a network proxy, follow these steps before continuing.

Important: The URLs and port numbers shown below are examples only. Use the actual URLs and port numbers for your environment. Contact your network administrator for this information if necessary.

Run the following commands to set the environment variables http_proxy, https_proxy, and no_proxy.

Important: Replace the example URLs and ports with the actual URLs and port numbers for your environment.

  $ export http_proxy=http://proxy-server.example:3128
  $ export https_proxy=http://proxy-server.example:3129
  $ export no_proxy=example.com,another-example.com,127.0.0.0

Note: Add these commands to either your .profile or .bashrc file so you don't have to set them every time you open a new shell.

Docker Proxy Settings (Optional)

To configure Docker to work with an HTTP or HTTPS proxy server, follow the instructions for your operating system:

Create the file /etc/systemd/system/docker.service.d/http-proxy.conf with the following contents:

Important: Replace the example URLs and ports with the actual URLs and port numbers for your environment.

[Service]
Environment="HTTP_PROXY=http://proxy-server.example:3128" "HTTPS_PROXY=http://proxy-server.example:3129" "http_proxy=http://proxy-server.example:3128" "https_proxy=http://proxy-server.example:3129" "no_proxy=example.com,another-example.com,127.0.0.0"

Restart Docker

$ sudo systemctl daemon-reload
$ sudo systemctl restart docker

Verify that the configuration has been loaded:

$ systemctl show --property=Environment docker
Environment=HTTP_PROXY=http://proxy-server.example:80/

Docker DNS (Optional)

Docker build uses /etc/resolv.conf for setting up DNS servers for docker image builds. If you receive Host not found errors during docker build steps, you need to add nameserver entries to the resolve.conf file.

Note: (Ubuntu only) Because resolv.conf is automatically generated on Ubuntu, you must install a configuration utility with this command:

  $ sudo apt-get install resolvconf

Edit /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base as root and add the DNS servers for your network.

Note: If you are behind a firewall, you might need to use specific servers for your network.

For example, to use Google's public DNS servers:

    nameserver 8.8.8.8
    nameserver 8.8.4.4

Step Three: Clone the Repository

Note: You must have git installed in order to clone the Sawtooth source code repository. You can find up-to-date installation instructions at "Getting Started - Installing Git": https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Getting-Started-Installing-Git.

Open a terminal and run the following commands:

   $ cd $HOME
   $ mkdir sawtooth
   $ cd sawtooth
   $ git clone https://github.com/hyperledger/sawtooth-poet -branch poet2   

Step Four: Build Docker Images

Docker images are built which contain all of the dependencies required to run each component, but which do not contain any source code or build artifacts. The PoET repo must be mounted as a docker volume to /project/sawtooth-poet for each of the containers when they are started.

To build docker images for PoET development, run:

$ docker-compose -f demo-sgx.yaml build

From the project root directory. To run any build steps defined for the packages, such as generating or compiling code, run:

$ docker-compose -f demo-sgx.yaml up

Then once all components are built, you can CTRL+C to shutdown the docker-compose network and then do docker-compose down to clean up. Your project directory will now be modified according to the build steps.

To combine the above two steps you can also do:

$ docker-compose -f demo-sgx.yaml up --build
