Issuer-Agent: Verifiable Credentials on CORD Blockchain

Verification Assist Service

This repo helps in the people with issuer-agent deployed to provide a verification service.

The tool only supports 2 endpoints, both returning HTML.

1. '/verify/:id', where id is the id of VC, if found, gives a simple tabular view of VC
2. '/*' catch-all page, which provides a textbox to get the ID manually entered.

Launching this service is optional, and assumes the generated VC is stored in the DB of issuer-agent.

Benefit of having this service is, one can have a separate subdomain to this service, and use it as a URL for QR code which can be added in any print friendly documents, which would point people to the particular VC.

Build and Run

One option is building docker image, and run it with relevant section.

$ docker build -t dhiway/vc-verify-ui:latest .

$ # snippet from docker-compose
...

    vc-verify:
        image: dhiway/vc-verify-ui:latest
        container_name: vc-verify
        environment:
            - PORT=${PORT}
            - TYPEORM_HOST=${STUDIO_TYPEORM_HOST}
            - TYPEORM_PORT=${TYPEORM_PORT}
            - TYPEORM_USERNAME=${STUDIO_TYPEORM_USERNAME}
            - TYPEORM_PASSWORD=${STUDIO_TYPEORM_PASSWORD}
            - TYPEORM_DATABASE=${STUDIO_TYPEORM_DATABASE}
        ports:
            - ${PORT}:${PORT}
        depends_on:
            - postgres
        networks:
            - local
        command: node dist/index.js

...

locally, one needs to run with below steps:

$ yarn
$ yarn build
$ # set ENV variables for PORT and TYPEORM related constants
$ cp -a view/ dist/    # this is required to copy the html template files
$ yarn start
