After completing part two of the Kotlin Hello, World tutorial, this is what your repo should look like.

CorDapp Template - Kotlin

Welcome to the Kotlin CorDapp template. The CorDapp template is a stubbed-out CorDapp that you can use to bootstrap your own CorDapps.

This is the Kotlin version of the CorDapp template. The Java equivalent is here.

Pre-Requisites

See https://docs.corda.net/getting-set-up.html.

Usage

Running the nodes

See https://docs.corda.net/tutorial-cordapp.html#running-the-example-cordapp.

Interacting with the nodes

Shell

When started via the command line, each node will display an interactive shell:

Welcome to the Corda interactive shell.
Useful commands include 'help' to see what is available, and 'bye' to shut down the node.

You can use this shell to interact with your node. For example, enter run networkMapSnapshot to see a list of the other nodes on the network:

Tue Nov 06 11:58:13 GMT 2018>>> run networkMapSnapshot
[
  {
  "addresses" : [ "localhost:10002" ],
  "legalIdentitiesAndCerts" : [ "O=Notary, L=London, C=GB" ],
  "platformVersion" : 3,
  "serial" : 1541505484825
},
  {
  "addresses" : [ "localhost:10005" ],
  "legalIdentitiesAndCerts" : [ "O=PartyA, L=London, C=GB" ],
  "platformVersion" : 3,
  "serial" : 1541505382560
},
  {
  "addresses" : [ "localhost:10008" ],
  "legalIdentitiesAndCerts" : [ "O=PartyB, L=New York, C=US" ],
  "platformVersion" : 3,
  "serial" : 1541505384742
}
]

You can find out more about the node shell here.

Client

clients/src/main/kotlin/com/template/Client.kt defines a simple command-line client that connects to a node via RPC and prints a list of the other nodes on the network.

Running the client

Via the command line

Run the runTemplateClient Gradle task. By default, it connects to the node with RPC address localhost:10006 with the username user1 and the password test.

Via IntelliJ

Run the Run Template Client run configuration. By default, it connects to the node with RPC address localhost:10006 with the username user1 and the password test.

Webserver

clients/src/main/kotlin/com/template/webserver/ defines a simple Spring webserver that connects to a node via RPC and allows you to interact with the node over HTTP.

The API endpoints are defined here:

 clients/src/main/kotlin/com/template/webserver/Controller.kt

And a static webpage is defined here:

 clients/src/main/resources/static/

Running the webserver

Via the command line

Run the runTemplateServer Gradle task. By default, it connects to the node with RPC address localhost:10006 with the username user1 and the password test, and serves the webserver on port localhost:10050.

Via IntelliJ

Run the Run Template Server run configuration. By default, it connects to the node with RPC address localhost:10006 with the username user1 and the password test, and serves the webserver on port localhost:10050.

Interacting with the webserver

The static webpage is served on:

http://localhost:10050

While the sole template endpoint is served on:

http://localhost:10050/customendpoint

Extending the template

You should extend this template as follows:

• Add your own state and contract definitions under cordapp-contracts-states/src/main/kotlin/
• Add your own flow definitions under cordapp/src/main/kotlin/
• Extend or replace the client and webserver under clients/src/main/kotlin/

For a guided example of how to extend this template, see the Hello, World! tutorial here.
