Introduction

Below is a basic example of a chaincode (smart contract) in Hyperledger Fabric. This is written in Go, which is one of the languages you can use to create chaincode in Hyperledger Fabric. This simple example chaincode models assets (items) that can be created, read, updated, deleted, and listed.

``` go package main

import ( "fmt"

"github.com/hyperledger/fabric-contract-api-go/contractapi"

)

type SmartContract struct { contractapi.Contract }

type Item struct { ID string json:"id" Name string json:"name" Price int json:"price" }

func (s *SmartContract) InitLedger(ctx contractapi.TransactionContextInterface) error { items := []Item{ {ID: "item1", Name: "Item 1", Price: 100}, {ID: "item2", Name: "Item 2", Price: 200}, {ID: "item3", Name: "Item 3", Price: 300}, }

for _, item := range items {
    itemJSON, err := json.Marshal(item)
    if err != nil {
        return err
    }

    err = ctx.GetStub().PutState(item.ID, itemJSON)
    if err != nil {
        return fmt.Errorf("failed to put to world state. %v", err)
    }
}

return nil

}

func (s *SmartContract) CreateItem(ctx contractapi.TransactionContextInterface, id string, name string, price int) error { item := Item{ ID: id, Name: name, Price: price, }

itemJSON, err := json.Marshal(item)
if err != nil {
    return err
}

return ctx.GetStub().PutState(id, itemJSON)

}

func (s SmartContract) ReadItem(ctx contractapi.TransactionContextInterface, id string) (Item, error) { itemJSON, err := ctx.GetStub().GetState(id) if err != nil { return nil, fmt.Errorf("failed to read from world state. %v", err) }

if itemJSON == nil {
    return nil, fmt.Errorf("the asset %s does not exist", id)
}

var item Item
err = json.Unmarshal(itemJSON, &item)
if err != nil {
    return nil, err
}

return &item, nil

}

func (s *SmartContract) UpdateItem(ctx contractapi.TransactionContextInterface, id string, name string, price int) error { item, err := s.ReadItem(ctx, id) if err != nil { return err }

item.Name = name
item.Price = price

itemJSON, err := json.Marshal(item)
if err != nil {
    return err
}

return ctx.GetStub().PutState(id, itemJSON)

}

func (s *SmartContract) DeleteItem(ctx contractapi.TransactionContextInterface, id string) error { exists, err := s.ItemExists(ctx, id) if err != nil { return err } if !exists { return fmt.Errorf("the asset %s does not exist", id) }

return ctx.GetStub().DelState(id)

}

func (s *SmartContract) ItemExists(ctx contractapi.TransactionContextInterface, id string) (bool, error) { itemJSON, err := ctx.GetStub().GetState(id) if err != nil { return false, fmt.Errorf("failed to read from world state. %v", err) }

return itemJSON != nil, nil

}

func (s SmartContract) GetAllItems(ctx contractapi.TransactionContextInterface) ([]Item, error) { resultsIterator, err := ctx.GetStub().GetStateByRange("", "") if err != nil { return nil, err } defer resultsIterator.Close()

var items []*Item
for resultsIterator.HasNext() {
    queryResponse, err := resultsIterator.Next()
    if err != nil {
        return nil, err
    }

    var item Item
    err = json.Unmarshal(queryResponse.Value, &item)
    if err != nil {
        return nil, err
    }
    items = append(items, &item)
}

return items, nil

}

func main() { chaincode, err := contractapi.NewChaincode(new(SmartContract)) if err != nil { fmt.Printf("Error create example chaincode: %s", err.Error()) return }

if err := chaincode.Start(); err != nil {
    fmt.Printf("Error starting example chaincode: %s", err.Error())
}

} ```

This chaincode allows for the following operations:

1. Initialize the ledger with some items (InitLedger function).
2. Create an item (CreateItem function).
3. Read an item (ReadItem function).
4. Check if an item exists (ItemExists function).
5. Update an item (UpdateItem function).
6. Delete an item (DeleteItem function).
7. Get all items (GetAllItems function).

Each item has an ID, a name, and a price. Remember to use the correct import paths for the fmt, json, and github.com/hyperledger/fabric-contract-api-go/contractapi packages.

Directory structure

The directory structure for a Hyperledger Fabric Chaincode (smart contract):

sh - fabric-item-contract - chaincode - item-contract - item-contract.go // The chaincode file - test - item-contract_test.go // Unit tests for your smart contract - scripts - startFabric.sh // Scripts for setting up and running the network - testAPI.sh // Scripts for testing the API - doc - item-contract.md // Documentation for your chaincode - network - // Contains the configuration for your network - client - // Optional, for client side code if needed - README.md // Main project readme - .gitignore // For excluding files from version control

This is a fairly standard structure for a Fabric chaincode project.

• Your actual chaincode would live inside the chaincode directory.
• The test directory contains the tests for your chaincode.
• The scripts directory contains shell scripts for setting up your environment and running your application.
• The doc directory contains the documentation for your chaincode.
• The network directory would contain the configurations for your network.
• The client directory is optional and would contain the client side code for invoking the chaincode, if any.

These directories and their contents will help keep your project organized and will make it easier for others to understand your work.
