cordapp-example-nodejs-server-graalvm

This example demonstates a nodejs server which uses corda rpc-3.1 library running in GraalVM. The nodejs server serves APIs to create IOU, fetch IOUs similar to the cordapp-example

Pre-requisites

Setting Up the GraalVM environment

  • Follow the official GraalVM documentation on how to setup the Graal for linux or osX.
  • To learn more about GraalVM refer to the Mike Hearn's blog

Steps to the run the node.js server with GraalVM

  • Run the cordapp-example nodes
  • Make sure that the nodeConfig.json file matches the settings of a running node
  • Run ./gradlew printClassPath once to make sure everything is downloaded. You should see a big classpath be printed.
  • Run npm install from root directory of the project to install express and body-parser npm modules.
  • Run node --jvm --jvm.cp=$( ./gradlew -q printClasspath ) server.js
  • Output will look like: PartyA Node.js server listening on port 3000

TroubleShooting

If you get the following error when starting the server, you need to install GraalVM:

node: bad option: --jvm
node: bad option: --jvm.cp=

Interacting with the Cordaapp-example network to create IOUs from nodejs server

  1. Create-iou

curl -d '{"iouValue":10, "otherPartyOrgName":"PartyB","otherPartyOrgCountry":"New York", "otherPartyOrgLocality":"US"}' -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST http://localhost:3000/api/example/create-iou

  1. Fetch IOUs

curl http://localhost:3000/api/example/ious

Other endpoints

  • GET /api/example/me
  • GET /api/example/peers
