这里介绍Chaincode的查询功能, 从前面的介绍得知, Fabric SDK提供了多种查询功能, 具体包括Channel, Block, Transaction, Chaincode 等信息, 而这个功能, 都是通过Channel对象实现的。
因此, 首先创建channel对象。
// setup the fabric network
var channel = fabric_client.newChannel('mychannel');
var peer = fabric_client.newPeer('grpc://localhost:7051');
channel.addPeer(peer);
然后调用channel的方法实现相应的查询及其其他功能。例如使用queryByChaincode来查询Blockchain中存储的数据。
// queryCar chaincode function - requires 1 argument, ex: args: ['CAR4'],
// queryAllCars chaincode function - requires no arguments , ex: args: [''],
const request = {
//targets : --- letting this default to the peers assigned to the channel
chaincodeId: 'fabcar',
fcn: 'queryAllCars',
args: ['']
};
// send the query proposal to the peer
return channel.queryByChaincode(request);
}).then((query_responses) => {
console.log("Query has completed, checking results");
// query_responses could have more than one results if there multiple peers were used as targets
if (query_responses && query_responses.length == 1) {
if (query_responses[0] instanceof Error) {
console.error("error from query = ", query_responses[0]);
} else {
console.log("Response is ", query_responses[0].toString());
}
} else {
console.log("No payloads were returned from query");
}
关于queryByChaincode方法的具体文档见:Hyperledger Fabric SDK for node.js Class: Channel。其他关于Channel的文档见: Hyperledger Fabric SDK for node.js Class: Channel 。
此外, Channel 还提供了几个比较常用的用于查询的方法:
queryBlock(blockNumber, target, useAdmin, skipDecode)
queryBlockByHash(block, target, useAdmin, skipDecode)
queryBlockByTxID(tx_id, target, useAdmin, skipDecode)
queryTransaction(tx_id, target, useAdmin, skipDecode)
queryInstantiatedChaincodes(target, useAdmin)
使用以上几个方法, 可以帮助查看Blockchain的状态。
