I'm new to Hyperledger Fabric, I'm using the test network to understand and I'm panning to create my own application but I have a couple of questions.
Are assets just added manually to the ledger?? Can I add assets using (or calling) an external document or a cloud database?
I don't understand how do I add data to the ledger? Also, If I'm going to be dealing with a huge amount of data what should be the correct approach because I cannot add the entire data to the ledger I would only want to add a specific potion of the data, and then use smart contracts. But how would I do that?
Does anyone now how to test a chaincode? I'm using the terminal but I don't find it that practical. Are there other ways or platforms to test chaincodes??
Does anyone one any support groups or communities in which I can ask questions about Hyperledger Fabric?
I really don't know how I can add assets from a file or an external source, like a JSON or other document, there is not much information out there. Or should I add assets one by one?
All the bussiness logic must be present in the smart-contract (Chaincode). You will need an application that connects to the Fabric Network and performs the operations against the smart-contract (like reading and writing data).
You can refer this sample chaincode. And here is a client application that connect with fabric network to execute transactions
