README

PEER-AI

  • About - Peerism API built with Truffle, Node.js, Express.js, Mongoose, MongoDB, Solidity, and Ganache CLI (TestRPC).

  • Instructions - Setup instructions (for macOS) are provided in the Quick Start Guide shown below.

  • Usage Capabilities - Use cURL to simulate a HTTP POST request to a Peerism API endpoint (instead of sending a request from the Peerism React Native ÐApp https://github.com/peerism/peer.ai). Alternatively allows triggering Middleware functions individually. API routes use an Express.js Middleware Chain that allow a request to compile the Peerism Smart Contract using Solidity Compiler (Solc) and Ether Pudding, then deploy it to the Ethereum TestRPC test network blockchain and responds with the contract address.

Quick Start Guide

  • Terminal Tab #1 - Install dependencies including Ganache CLI (TestRPC from the Truffle Suite)

    nvm install v9.3.0;
nvm use;
nvm use v9.3.0;
yarn install;
npm install -g ganache-cli

  • Terminal Tab #1 - Run MongoDB Server in a separate Terminal tab

    mongod

  • Terminal Tab #2 - Run Ethereum Client using Ganache CLI (TestRPC).

rm -rf ./db;
mkdir -p db/chaindb;
ganache-cli --account '0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001, 10002471238800000000000' \

  • Terminal Tab #3 - Compile and Deploy Smart Contracts to TestRPC blockchain

    • Compile Smart Contracts

      • Option 1: Generates build/contracts/Peerism.sol.js

        node lib/compileContract.js Peerism

      • Option 2: Genertes build/contracts/Peerism.json (DEPRECATED)

        truffle compile --compile-all;

    • Deploy Smart Contracts

      • Option 1: Deploy without Truffle

        • Modify Bitcore dependency before running the next command to avoid error Error: More than one instance of bitcore-lib found. Please make sure to require bitcore-lib and check that submodules do not also include their own bitcore-lib dependency., as described here: bitpay/bitcore#1454, by opening node_modules/bitcore-mnemonic/node_modules/bitcore-lib/index.js and commented out the following lines of code to avoid an error. 
          bitcore.versionGuard = function(version) {
  // if (version !== undefined) {
  //   var message = 'More than one instance of bitcore-lib found. ' +
  //     'Please make sure to require bitcore-lib and check that submodules do' +
  //     ' not also include their own bitcore-lib dependency.';
  //   throw new Error(message);
  // }
};

        node lib/deployContract.js Peerism

  • Add scripts to package.json

  • Run MongoDB Server

    mongod

  • MongoDB Client

    mongo

show dbs
use peerai
show collections
db.users.find({})

    yarn add passport passport-local passport-local-mongoose

  • Rename Person and people to User and users

  • Add User Registration route

  • Add User Sign in route

yarn add truffle-artifactor --dev;

  • Problem: Tried to manually compile using Solc with node lib/compileContract.js ConvertLib, which generates ConvertLib.solc.js in build/contracts. However it does not compile MetaCoin.sol, as it returns error 1:27: ParserError: Source "ConvertLib.sol" not found: File not supplied initially.\n ... import "./ConvertLib.sol".

    • Solution: Use Truffle to compile Solidity contracts with truffle compile --compile-all

  • Run shell script in new Terminal tab (copy from https://github.com/ltfschoen/solidity_test/blob/master/testrpc.sh)

    rm -rf ./db;
mkdir db && mkdir db/chaindb;
cd ~/code/blockchain/solidity_test; testrpc --account '0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001, 10002471238800000000000' \

  • Install Truffle

    npm install -g truffle;
truffle init;

  • Run Truffle Unbox in separate directory to get template Metacoin example and move relevant boilerplate contracts and tests into the the root folder

  • Update package.json tests script to run tests for Smart Contracts and API tests:

    "test": "truffle test; NODE_ENV=testing mocha --recursive test/**/*_test.js",

  • Remove truffle-config.js and add the following to truffle.js:

    module.exports = {
  // http://truffleframework.com/docs/advanced/configuration
  networks: {
    development: {
      host: "localhost",
      port: 8545,
      network_id: "*" // Match any network id
    }
  }
};

  • Add ethpm.json for EthPM Package Management

    {
  "package_name": "truffle-box-peerism-api-node-express",
  "version": "0.0.1",
  "description": "Truffle Box of Peerism API built with Truffle, Node.js, Express.js,

  "keywords": [
    "ethereum",
    "express.js",
    "node.js",
    "middleware",
    "api"
  ],
  "license": "MIT"
}

  • Open node_modules/bitcore-mnemonic/node_modules/bitcore-lib/index.js and commented out the following lines of code to avoid an error.

    bitcore.versionGuard = function(version) {
  // if (version !== undefined) {
  //   var message = 'More than one instance of bitcore-lib found. ' +
  //     'Please make sure to require bitcore-lib and check that submodules do' +
  //     ' not also include their own bitcore-lib dependency.';
  //   throw new Error(message);
  // }
};

  • Run Truffle Console experimentation

    truffle console --network development;

  • Build script for Smart Contract (generates .sol.js file in build/contracts/)

    mkdir lib;
node lib/compileContract.js Peerism
    • Alternatively compile with Truffle

  • Deployment script for Smart Contract

    touch lib/deployContract.js;
node lib/deployContract.js Peerism;

FAQ

  • How to understand how to use Passport JWT library?
    • Refer to the library codebase on Github or in node_modules/jsonwebtoken/ i.e. verify.js
    • Use breakpoints
    • Experiment using Node. i.e. Run node then 
      npm install jsonwebtoken

const JWT = require('jsonwebtoken');
JWT.decode("eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJlbWFpbCI6Imx0ZnNjaG9lbkBnbWFpbC5jb20iLCJpYXQiOjE1MTMwNjY3NTEsImV4cCI6MTUxMzY3MTU1MSwic3ViIjoiNWEyZjkwZmZiNTI5YjI0YzM5MTA1NWM3In0.MkcCR1YD2c21x_WOQObyY-UPAQDWTcooOiO69saUVMI")
