Shown in the figure are three smart contracts for the transport chaincode and
four smart contracts for the insurance chaincode. Revealed in these chaincodes
are the key aspects of the business process related to transport and insurance.
Related to a business process is a domain-specific program that is a smart
contract, and a chaincode is a container of a group of technically related smart
contracts.
Ledger
The history of all transactions in a blockchain is recorded immutably, the states
in a ledger are updated, and its transactions are recorded in the world state
holding a cache of these states current values. A smart contract requires to
access these values of an obj ect programmatically, and they are two separate
pieces of the ledger.
The put, get and delete states are used in the world state by smart contracts to
query the blockchain record of transactions where a get is used to retrieve
information about the current state of a business obj ect, in the ledger world
state for the creation or modification of a new business obj ect by an existing
one is done by put, and delete is used to remove a business obj ect from the
current state of the ledger but not its history. The transactions, whether they
create, read, update, or delete business obj ects in the world state for which
several APIs are available in the smart contracts, all of the changes are
recorded immutably in the blockchain.
Application development
The focus of application development is smart contracts, and a single
chaincode can contain the definition of one or more smart contracts. Only the
administrators need to worry about the chaincode; others can think in terms of
smart contracts as a chaincode makes available to the organization in the
network all of its smart contracts when deployed to a network.
A smart contract consists of a set of transaction definitions. A new tatawagon
is created by tataw agon.js in the following example, which is a smart
contract transaction:
asynccreateTataWagon(ctx,tatawagonNo,tmake,tmodel,tcolor,towner){
const tatawagon={
tcolor,
docType:'tatawagon',
