The permissioned blockchain network Hyperledger Fabric needs a precise configuration of all settings and the organizations participating with their roles and permissions. Creating the right configuration for your own permissioned blockchain network from scratch can be quite overwhelming and discouraging. It should be possible to easily create a secure and proper working network without deep level knowledge or missing important specifications. In this paper we will describe several existing tools trying to simplify the usage of Hyperledger Fabric. These tools mostly aid with the set up and instantiation process of a network. They focus on scripts to execute the different installation steps automatically or on adding organizations with the settings of certificates, peer addresses, and ports. We introduce conceptual methods to transform plans of roles, rights, and permissions into a configuration file. We also show how they could be realized and how a Graphical User Interface (GUI) could look like.

摘要

The permissioned blockchain network Hyperledger Fabric needs a precise configuration of all settings and the organizations participating with their roles and permissions. Creating the right configuration for your own permissioned blockchain network from scratch can be quite overwhelming and discouraging. It should be possible to easily create a secure and proper working network without deep level knowledge or missing important specifications. In this paper we will describe several existing tools trying to simplify the usage of Hyperledger Fabric. These tools mostly aid with the set up and instantiation process of a network. They focus on scripts to execute the different installation steps automatically or on adding organizations with the settings of certificates, peer addresses, and ports. We introduce conceptual methods to transform plans of roles, rights, and permissions into a configuration file. We also show how they could be realized and how a Graphical User Interface (GUI) could look like.
