# Fabric REST sample
Prototype sample REST server to demonstrate good Fabric Node SDK practices
The primary aim of this sample is to show how to write a long running client application using the Fabric Node SDK
The REST API is intended to work with the [basic asset transfer example](https://github.com/hyperledger/fabric-samples/tree/main/asset-transfer-basic)
To install the basic asset transfer chaincode on a local Fabric network, follow the [Using the Fabric test network](https://hyperledger-fabric.readthedocs.io/en/release-2.2/test_network.html) tutorial
**Note:** these instructions should work with the release-2.2 branch of `fabric-samples` but later versions require some changes
To build and start the sample REST server, you'll need to [download and install an LTS version of node](https://nodejs.org/en/download/)
Clone this repository and change to the `fabric-rest-sample/asset-transfer-basic/rest-api-typescript` directory before running the following commands
Install dependencies
```shell
npm install
```
Build the REST server
```shell
npm run build
```
Create a `.env` file to configure the server for the test network (make sure TEST_NETWORK_HOME is set to the fully qualified `test-network` directory)
```shell
TEST_NETWORK_HOME=$HOME/fabric-samples/test-network npm run generateEnv
```
Start a Redis server
```shell
npm run start:redis
```
Start the sample REST server
```shell
npm run start:dev
```
If everything went well, you can now make REST calls!
For example, get all assets...
```shell
curl http://localhost:3000/api/assets
```
Check whether an asset exists...
```shell
curl --include --request OPTIONS http://localhost:3000/api/assets/asset7
```
Create an asset...
```shell
curl --include --header "Content-Type: application/json" --request POST --data '{"id":"asset7","color":"red","size":42,"owner":"Jean","appraisedValue":101}' http://localhost:3000/api/assets
```
Read an asset...
```shell
curl http://localhost:3000/api/assets/asset7
```
Update an asset...
```shell
curl --include --header "Content-Type: application/json" --request PUT --data '{"id":"asset7","color":"red","size":11,"owner":"Jean","appraisedValue":101}' http://localhost:3000/api/assets/asset7
```
Transfer an asset...
```shell
curl --include --header "Content-Type: application/json" --request PATCH --data '[{"op":"replace","path":"/owner","value":"Ashleigh"}]' http://localhost:3000/api/assets/asset7
```
Delete an asset...
```shell
curl --include --request DELETE http://localhost:3000/api/assets/asset7
```
