blockchain-supply-chain

Overview

This is the "umbrella" repository for blockchain supply-chain solution. The solution implements an end-to-end document and device data attestation scenario:

• The Office 365 outlook integration supports archiving, retrieval and validations of attachments.
• The Core services provide an API to interact with the Ethereum smart contract. This contract implements the persistency of a proof (such as a laboratory report of a produce). The core service README.md explains the API in more detail. In addition to the interaction with the smart contract, the core services implement a key store which is used to encrypt the private parts of a proof.

Architecture

Getting started locally

• Build and deploy the smart contract to the block chain - for local development you either use testrpc or a local geth instance.
• Configure and run the core service - update the configuration as described in the README and run the service using npm start
• Configure and run the office integration service - Follow the instructions in on configuration and running in localhost
