  • public interface ChaincodeStub
    An object which manages the transaction context, provides access to state variables, and supports calls to other chaincode implementations.
    • Method Detail

      • getFunction

        java.lang.String getFunction()
        A convenience method that returns the first argument of the chaincode invocation for use as a function name.

        The bytes of the first argument are decoded as a UTF-8 string.

        Returns:
        the function name
      • getParameters

        java.util.List<java.lang.String> getParameters()
        A convenience method that returns all except the first argument of the chaincode invocation for use as the parameters to the function returned by #getFunction().

        The bytes of the arguments are decoded as a UTF-8 strings and returned as a list of string parameters.

        Returns:
        a list of parameters
      • getTxId

        java.lang.String getTxId()
        Returns the transaction id for the current chaincode invocation request.

        The transaction id uniquely identifies the transaction within the scope of the channel.

        Returns:
        the transaction id
      • getChannelId

        java.lang.String getChannelId()
        Returns the channel id for the current proposal.

        This would be the 'channel_id' of the transaction proposal except where the chaincode is calling another on a different channel.

        Returns:
        the channel id
      • invokeChaincode

        Chaincode.Response invokeChaincode​(java.lang.String chaincodeName,
                                           java.util.List<byte[]> args,
                                           java.lang.String channel)
        Locally calls the specified chaincode invoke() using the same transaction context.

        chaincode calling chaincode doesn't create a new transaction message.

        If the called chaincode is on the same channel, it simply adds the called chaincode read set and write set to the calling transaction.

        If the called chaincode is on a different channel, only the Response is returned to the calling chaincode; any putState calls from the called chaincode will not have any effect on the ledger; that is, the called chaincode on a different channel will not have its read set and write set applied to the transaction. Only the calling chaincode's read set and write set will be applied to the transaction. Effectively the called chaincode on a different channel is a `Query`, which does not participate in state validation checks in subsequent commit phase.

        If `channel` is empty, the caller's channel is assumed.

        Invoke another chaincode using the same transaction context.

        Parameters:
        chaincodeName - Name of chaincode to be invoked.
        args - Arguments to pass on to the called chaincode.
        channel - If not specified, the caller's channel is assumed.
        Returns:
        Chaincode.Response object returned by called chaincode
      • getState

        byte[] getState​(java.lang.String key)
        Returns the value of the specified key from the ledger.

        Note that getState doesn't read data from the writeset, which has not been committed to the ledger. In other words, GetState doesn't consider data modified by PutState that has not been committed.

        Parameters:
        key - name of the value
        Returns:
        value the value read from the ledger
      • getStateValidationParameter

        byte[] getStateValidationParameter​(java.lang.String key)
        retrieves the key-level endorsement policy for key. Note that this will introduce a read dependency on key in the transaction's readset.
        Parameters:
        key - key to get key level endorsement
        Returns:
        endorsement policy
      • putState

        void putState​(java.lang.String key,
                      byte[] value)
        Puts the specified key and value into the transaction's writeset as a data-write proposal.

        putState doesn't effect the ledger until the transaction is validated and successfully committed. Simple keys must not be an empty string and must not start with 0x00 character, in order to avoid range query collisions with composite keys

        Parameters:
        key - name of the value
        value - the value to write to the ledger
      • setStateValidationParameter

        void setStateValidationParameter​(java.lang.String key,
                                         byte[] value)
        Sets the key-level endorsement policy for key.
        Parameters:
        key - key to set key level endorsement
        value - endorsement policy
      • delState

        void delState​(java.lang.String key)
        Records the specified key to be deleted in the writeset of the transaction proposal.

        The key and its value will be deleted from the ledger when the transaction is validated and successfully committed.

        Parameters:
        key - name of the value to be deleted
      • getStateByRange

        QueryResultsIterator<KeyValue> getStateByRange​(java.lang.String startKey,
                                                       java.lang.String endKey)
        Returns all existing keys, and their values, that are lexicographically between startkey (inclusive) and the endKey (exclusive).

        The keys are returned by the iterator in lexical order. Note that startKey and endKey can be empty string, which implies unbounded range query on start or end.

        Call close() on the returned AutoCloseable.close() object when done.

        Parameters:
        startKey - key as the start of the key range (inclusive)
        endKey - key as the end of the key range (exclusive)
        Returns:
        an Iterable of KeyValue
      • getStateByRangeWithPagination

        QueryResultsIteratorWithMetadata<KeyValue> getStateByRangeWithPagination​(java.lang.String startKey,

                                                                                 int pageSize,
                                                                                 java.lang.String bookmark)
        Returns a range iterator over a set of keys in the ledger. The iterator can be used to fetch keys between the startKey (inclusive) and endKey (exclusive). When an empty string is passed as a value to the bookmark argument, the returned iterator can be used to fetch the first pageSize keys between the startKey and endKey. When the bookmark is a non-empty string, the iterator can be used to fetch first pageSize keys between the bookmark and endKey. Note that only the bookmark present in a prior page of query results (QueryResponseMetadata) can be used as a value to the bookmark argument. Otherwise, an empty string must be passed as bookmark. The keys are returned by the iterator in lexical order. Note that startKey and endKey can be empty string, which implies unbounded range query on start or end. This call is only supported in a read only transaction.
        Parameters:
        startKey - the start key
        endKey - the end key
        pageSize - the page size
        bookmark - the bookmark
        Returns:

        QueryResultsIterator<KeyValue> getStateByPartialCompositeKey​(java.lang.String compositeKey)
        Returns all existing keys, and their values, that are prefixed by the specified partial CompositeKey.

        If a full composite key is specified, it will not match itself, resulting in no keys being returned.

        This method takes responsibility to correctly parse the CompositeKey from a String and behaves exactly as getStateByPartialCompositeKey(CompositeKey).

        Call close() on the returned AutoCloseable.close() object when done.

        Parameters:
        compositeKey - partial composite key
        Returns:
        an Iterable of KeyValue

When an empty string is passed as a value to the bookmark argument, the returned iterator can be used to fetch the first pageSize of query results..

        When the bookmark is a non-empty string, the iterator can be used to fetch first pageSize keys between the bookmark (inclusive) and the last key in the query result.

        Note that only the bookmark present in a prior page of query results (QueryResponseMetadata) can be used as a value to the bookmark argument. Otherwise, an empty string must be passed as bookmark.

        This call is only supported in a read only transaction.

                              java.lang.String key)
        Returns the value of the specified key from the specified collection.

        Note that getPrivateData(String, String) doesn't read data from the private writeset, which has not been committed to the collection. In other words, getPrivateData(String, String) doesn't consider data modified by putPrivateData(String, String, byte[]) * that has not been committed.

        Parameters:
        collection - name of the collection
        key - name of the value
        Returns:

        Retrieves the key-level endorsement policy for the private data specified by key. Note that this introduces a read dependency on key in the transaction's readset.
        Parameters:
        collection - name of the collection
        key - key to get endorsement policy
        Returns:
        Key Level endorsement as byte array
      • putPrivateData

                            byte[] value)
        Puts the specified key and value into the transaction's private writeset.

        Note that only hash of the private writeset goes into the transaction proposal response (which is sent to the client who issued the transaction) and the actual private writeset gets temporarily stored in a transient store. putPrivateData doesn't effect the collection until the transaction is validated and successfully committed. Simple keys must not be an empty string and must not start with null character (0x00), in order to avoid range query collisions with composite keys, which internally get prefixed with 0x00 as composite key namespace.

        Parameters:
        collection - name of the collection
        key - name of the value
        value - the value to write to the ledger

      • delPrivateData

        void delPrivateData​(java.lang.String collection,
                            java.lang.String key)
        Records the specified key to be deleted in the private writeset of the transaction.

        Note that only hash of the private writeset goes into the transaction proposal response (which is sent to the client who issued the transaction) and the actual private writeset gets temporarily stored in a transient store. The key and its value will be deleted from the collection when the transaction is validated and successfully committed.

        Parameters:
        collection - name of the collection
        key - name of the value to be deleted
      • purgePrivateData

        void purgePrivateData​(java.lang.String collection,
                              java.lang.String key)
        Reqauests purging of the specified key to be from the private data stores.

        Note that only hash of the private writeset goes into the transaction proposal response (which is sent to the client who issued the transaction) and the actual private writeset gets temporarily stored in a transient store. The key and its value will be purged from the collection. This is an asynchronous activity.

        Purge is a complete removal of the history of the key. There is existing purge possible mased on block height. This API allows the contract to be pro-active in requesting data be purged. This can contribute towards meeting privacy requirements.

        Parameters:
        collection - name of the collection
        key - name of the value to be deleted

      • getPrivateDataQueryResult

        QueryResultsIterator<KeyValue> getPrivateDataQueryResult​(java.lang.String collection,
                                                                 java.lang.String query)
        Perform a rich query against a given private collection.

        It is only supported for state databases that support rich query, e.g.CouchDB. The query string is in the native syntax of the underlying state database. An iterator is returned which can be used to iterate (next) over the query result set. The query is NOT re-executed during validation phase, phantom reads are not detected. That is, other committed transactions may have added, updated, or removed keys that impact the result set, and this would not be detected at validation/commit time. Applications susceptible to this should therefore not use GetQueryResult as part of transactions that update ledger, and should limit use to read-only chaincode operations.

        Parameters:
        collection - name of the collection
        query - query string in a syntax supported by the underlying state database
        Returns:
        QueryResultsIterator object contains query results
        Throws:
        java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException - if the underlying state database does not support rich queries.
