3.0 Dependencies

Following are the software dependencies required to install and run hyperledger explorer:

  • Nodejs 10 and 12 (10.19 and 12.16 tested)
  • PostgreSQL 9.5 or greater
  • jq
  • Linux-based operating system, such as Ubuntu or MacOS

Verified Docker versions supported:

4.0 Clone GIT Repository

Clone this repository to get the latest using the following command.

  • git clone https://github.com/hyperledger/blockchain-explorer.git
  • cd blockchain-explorer

5.0 Database Setup

  • cd blockchain-explorer/app
  • Modify explorerconfig.json to update PostgreSQL database settings.
"postgreSQL": {
    "host": "127.0.0.1",
    "port": "5432",
    "database": "fabricexplorer",
    "username": "hppoc",
    "passwd": "password"
}

Another alternative to configure database settings is to use environment variables, example of settings:

	export DATABASE_HOST=127.0.0.1
	export DATABASE_PORT=5432
	export DATABASE_DATABASE=fabricexplorer
	export DATABASE_USERNAME=hppoc
	export DATABASE_PASSWD=pass12345

**Important repeat after every git pull (in some case you may need to apply permission to db/ directory, from blockchain-explorer/app/persistence/fabric/postgreSQL run: chmod -R 775 db/

Run create database script:

Ubuntu

  • cd blockchain-explorer/app/persistence/fabric/postgreSQL/db
  • sudo -u postgres ./createdb.sh

MacOS

  • cd blockchain-explorer/app/persistence/fabric/postgreSQL/db
  • ./createdb.sh

Connect to the PostgreSQL database and run DB status commands:

  • \l View created fabricexplorer database.
  • \d View created tables.

If your Postgresql configured with TLS, read link how to configure connection to Postgresql with TLS

5.1 Authorization Configuration

  • cd blockchain-explorer/app
  • Modify explorerconfig.json to update Authorization (JWT) settings.
"jwt": {
    "secret" : "a secret phrase!!",
    "expiresIn": "2 days"
}

jwt:

  • secret: secret string to sign the payload.
  • expiresIn: expressed in seconds or a string describing a time span zeit/ms.

    Eg: 60, "2 days", "10h", "7d". A numeric value is interpreted as a seconds count. If you use a string be sure you provide the time units (days, hours, etc), otherwise milliseconds unit is used by default ("120" is equal to "120ms").

6.0 Fabric Network Setup

  • Note: This section will take some time to complete.
  • Setup your own network using the Building Your First Network tutorial from Hyperledger. Once you setup the network, please modify the values in /blockchain-explorer/app/platform/fabric/config.json accordingly.
  • Hyperledger Explorer defaults to utilize fabric-samples/first-network.
  • Make sure to set the environment variables CORE_PEER_GOSSIP_BOOTSTRAP and CORE_PEER_GOSSIP_EXTERNALENDPOINT for each peer in the docker-compose.yaml file. These settings enable the Fabric discovery service, which is used by Hyperledger Explorer to discover the network topology.

6.1 Configure operations service Config-Operations-Service-Hyperledger-Explorer

7.0 Configure Hyperledger Fabric

On another terminal:

  • cd blockchain-explorer/app/platform/fabric
  • Modify config.json to define your fabric network connection profile:
{
    "network-configs": {
        "first-network": {
            "name": "firstnetwork",
            "profile": "./connection-profile/first-network.json",
            "enableAuthentication": false
        }
    },
    "license": "Apache-2.0"
}

  • "first-network" is the name of your connection profile, and can be changed to any name.

  • "name" is a name you want to give to your fabric network, you can change only value of the key "name".

  • "profile" is the location of your connection profile, you can change only value of the key "profile"

  • Modify connection profile in the JSON file first-network.json:

    • Change "fabric-path" to your fabric network disk path in the first-network.json file:
      /blockchain-explorer/app/platform/fabric/connection-profile/first-network.json
    • Provide the full disk path to the adminPrivateKey config option, it ussually ends with "_sk", for example:
      "/fabric-path/fabric-samples/first-network/crypto-config/peerOrganizations/org1.example.com/users/Admin@org1.example.com/msp/keystore/aaacd899a6362a5c8cc1e6f86d13bfccc777375365bbda9c710bb7119993d71c_sk"
    • "adminUser" is the the admin user of the network, in this case it's fabric CA or an identity user.
    • "adminPassword" is the password for the admin user.
    • "enableAuthentication" is a flag to enable authentication using a login page, setting to false will skip authentication.

7.1 Optional: Configure Fabcar Sample

Setup Fabcar sample network by following Fabcar Sample Network from Hyperledger fabric samples.

  • Make sure to set the environment variables CORE_PEER_GOSSIP_BOOTSTRAP and CORE_PEER_GOSSIP_EXTERNALENDPOINT for each peer in the docker-compose.yaml file. These settings enable the Fabric discovery service, which is used by Hyperledger Explorer to discover the network topology.
  • Configure Fabcar sample network based on this link CONFIG-FABCAR-HLEXPLORER.md

7.2 Optional: Configure Balance Transfer Sample

Balance Transfer Sample network by following Balance Transfer Sample from Hyperledger fabric samples.

7.3 Optional: Configure for monitoring multiple organizations

You can also configure multiple profiles in config.json for monitoring multiple organizations in a single Explorer instance. It's quite straightforward. You just need to prepare config.json as below and connection profile for each organization (for example: org1-network.json & org1-network.json). Note that you need to initialize your backend database once when applying v1.0.0-rc3 and above first time in your local environment. Because we've changed database schema in backend database since this version.

{
	"network-configs": {
		"org1-network": {
			"name": "org1-network",
			"profile": "./connection-profile/org1-network.json"
		},
		"org2-network": {
			"name": "org2-network",
			"profile": "./connection-profile/org2-network.json"
		}
	},
	"license": "Apache-2.0"
}

8.0 Optional: Hyperledger Composer Setup

Setup your own network using Composer Build your network from Hyperledger Composer. Once you setup the network, please modify the values in /blockchain-explorer/app/platform/fabric/config.json accordingly.

8.1 Optional: Configure Hyperledger Explorer for Composer

On another terminal.

  • git checkout v0.3.5.1
  • cd blockchain-explorer/app/platform/fabric
  • Modify config.json to update network-config.
  • Modify "syncStartDate" to filter data by block timestamp
  • Modify "channel" to your default channel

If you are connecting to a non TLS fabric peer, please modify "network-id.clients.client-id.tlsEnable" (true->false) in config.json. Depending on this configuration, the application decides whether to go TLS or non TLS route.

9.0 Optional: Hyperledger Cello Setup

Setup your fabric network using Setup Cello Platform from Hyperledger Cello. Once you setup the network, please modify the values in /blockchain-explorer/app/platform/fabric/config.json accordingly.

9.1 Optional: Configure Hyperledger Explorer for Cello

On another terminal.

  • git checkout v0.3.5.1
  • cd blockchain-explorer/app/platform/fabric
  • Modify config.json to update network-config.
  • Modify "syncStartDate" to filter data by block timestamp
  • Modify "channel" to your default channel

If you are connecting to a non TLS fabric peer, please modify "network-id.clients.client-id.tlsEnable" (true->false) in config.json. Depending on this configuration, the application decides whether to go TLS or non TLS route.

 "sync": {
    "type": "local"
 }

From a new terminal:

  • cd blockchain-explorer/
  • ./start.sh (it will have the backend up).
  • ./start.sh debug (it will have the backend in debug mode).
  • ./start.sh print (it will print help).
  • Launch the URL http(s)://localhost:8080 on a browser.
  • ./stop.sh (it will stop the node server).

From new terminal (if Sync Process in Standalone).

  • cd blockchain-explorer/

  • ./syncstart.sh (it will have the sync node up).

  • ./syncstop.sh (it will stop the sync node).

  • If the Hyperledger Explorer was used previously in your browser be sure to clear the cache before relaunching.

  • If Hyperledger Fabric network is deployed on other machine, please toggle DISCOVERY_AS_LOCALHOST in start.sh / syncstart.sh to 'false'.

11.1 Configuration of logging

By using the following environmet variables, you can control log level of each component (app, db and console). You can set these ALL < TRACE < DEBUG < INFO < WARN < ERROR < FATAL < MARK < OFF string to each level. Each file is rolled by both date (7days) and size (8MB).

  • LOG_LEVEL_APP
    • Log level regarding application layer. The logs are written to logs/app/app.log.
    • default DEBUG
  • LOG_LEVEL_DB
    • Log level regarding backend layer. The logs are written to logs/db/db.log.
    • default DEBUG
  • LOG_LEVEL_CONSOLE
    • Log level regarding console. The logs are written to logs/console/console.log.
    • default INFO
  • LOG_CONSOLE_STDOUT
    • You can switch the destination of console log from file to standard output.
    • default false

12.0 Optional: Run Hyperledger Explorer Using Docker

There is also an automated deployment of the Hyperledger Explorer available via docker given the following requirements are met:

  • BASH installed
  • Docker is installed on deployment machine.
  • Docker Compose is installed on deployment machine.

12.1 Docker Repository

  • Hyperledger Explorer docker repository https://hub.docker.com/r/hyperledger/explorer/
  • Hyperledger Explorer PostgreSQL docker repository https://hub.docker.com/r/hyperledger/explorer-db

12.2 Run Hyperledger Explorer Using Docker Compose

  • Modify an example of docker-compose.yaml to align with your environment

    • networks > mynetwork.com > external > name
    networks:
    mynetwork.com:
        external:
            name: net_byfn
    • services > explorer.mynetwork.com > volumes
      • Connection profile path (ex. ./examples/net1/config.json)
      • Connection profile directory path (ex. ./examples/net1/connection-profile, which is referred from config.json)
      • Directory path for crypto artifacts of fabric network (ex. ./examples/net1/crypto)
        volumes:
      - ./examples/net1/config.json:/opt/explorer/app/platform/fabric/config.json
      - ./examples/net1/connection-profile:/opt/explorer/app/platform/fabric/connection-profile
      - ./examples/net1/crypto:/tmp/crypto
    • When you connect the explorer to your fabric network through bridge network, you need to set DISCOVERY_AS_LOCALHOST to false for disabling hostname mapping into localhost.
        explorer.mynetwork.com:
        ...
        environment:
        ...
        - DISCOVERY_AS_LOCALHOST=false

  • Run the following to start up explore and explorer-db services after starting your fabric network:

    cd /blockchain-explorer
docker-compose up -d

  • To stop services without removing persistent data, run the following:

    docker-compose down

  • In this docker-compose.yaml, two named volumes are allocated for persistent data (for Postgres data and user wallet), if you would like to clear these named volumes, run the following:

    docker-compose down -v

12.3 Docker Troubleshooting

  • If you have an error on Explorer container as below, the initialisation of database might fail in some reasons.

    postgres://hppoc:password@192.168.10.11:5432/fabricexplorer
error when connecting to db: { error: role "hppoc" does not exist

    In such a case, you need to clear the persistent data by running the following command.

    docker-compose down -v
docker-compose up -d

  • If you have an error on Explorer container as below, the Explorer might not have connected the network which your fabric network is belonging.

    <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Explorer Error >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Error : [ 'Default client peer is down and no channel details available database' ]

    In such a case, you need to check whether the explorer container has belonged to the same network with your fabric network or not, with the following command.

    docker network inspect net_byfn  | jq ".[].Containers[].Name" | sort
"cli"
"dev-peer0.org1.example.com-mycc-1.0"
"dev-peer0.org2.example.com-mycc-1.0"
"dev-peer1.org2.example.com-mycc-1.0"
"explorerdb.mynetwork.com"              <<---
"explorer.mynetwork.com"                <<---
"orderer.example.com"
"peer0.org1.example.com"
"peer0.org2.example.com"
"peer1.org1.example.com"
"peer1.org2.example.com"

    Or you need to check whether the explorer can ping to each peer on your fabric network or not, with the following command.

    docker exec explorer.mynetwork.com ping -c 1 peer0.org1.example.com
PING peer0.org1.example.com (172.18.0.3): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from 172.18.0.3: seq=0 ttl=64 time=0.064 ms

--- peer0.org1.example.com ping statistics ---
1 packets transmitted, 1 packets received, 0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max = 0.064/0.064/0.064 ms
