Examples

This endpoint is used to invoke any function supported by the chaincode application that is already installed and instantiated on a channel.

Note:

You cannot use this endpoint to invoke any function that modifies the ledger values.

The following example shows how to invoke a chaincode query function by submitting a GET request on the REST resource using cURL.

curl -v -X POST \
  "https://<restproxy of your Blockchain instance>/api/v2/channels/<channel_name>/chaincode-queries" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer <OAuth_access_ token>" \
  -H "accept: application/json" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  --data @<JSON file with the request parameters>

For example,

curl -v -X POST \
  "https://myvm.oracle.com:10001/restproxy/api/v2/channels/default/chaincode-queries" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer mF_9.B5f-4.1JqM" \
  -H "accept: application/json" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  --data @file.json

The contents of file.json are:

{
  "chaincode": "obcs-example02",
  "args":["query","b"],
  "timeout": 18000,
  "peer": "myvm.oracle.com:10036"
}

Where:

chaincode is the chaincode ID of the Balance Transfer sample chaincode.
args specify the chaincode query function to be invoked along with it's parameters.
timeout specifies the maximum number of milliseconds for the transaction to timeout.
peer indicates the peer node for this transaction.

Note:

You can find the REST proxy value of your Blockchain instance from the Nodes tab of your instance console.

Example of the Response Body

The following example shows the contents of the response body in JSON format:

{
    "returnCode": "Success",
    "error": "",
    "result": {
        "payload": 2200,
        "encode": "JSON"
    }
}

In this case, the value returned for payload, that is, 2200 is the result returned by the chaincode query function specified in the request.
