<h1>Using attachments<a class="headerlink" href="#using-attachments" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h1>
|
|
<p>Attachments are (typically large) Zip/Jar files referenced within a transaction, but not included in the transaction
|
|
itself. These files can be requested from the originating node as needed, although in many cases will be cached within
|
|
nodes already. Examples include:</p>
|
|
<ul class="simple">
|
|
<li>Contract executable code</li>
|
|
<li>Metadata about a transaction, such as PDF version of an invoice being settled</li>
|
|
<li>Shared information to be permanently recorded on the ledger</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>To add attachments the file must first be added to the node’s storage service using <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">StorageService.importAttachment()</span></code>,
|
|
which returns a unique ID that can be added using <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">TransactionBuilder.addAttachment()</span></code>. Attachments can also be
|
|
uploaded and downloaded via HTTP, to enable integration with external systems. For instructions on HTTP upload/download
|
|
please see “<a class="reference internal" href="node-administration.html"><span class="doc">Node administration</span></a>”.</p>
|
|
<p>Normally attachments on transactions are fetched automatically via the <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">ResolveTransactionsFlow</span></code> when verifying
|
|
received transactions. Attachments are needed in order to validate a transaction (they include, for example, the
|
|
contract code), so must be fetched before the validation process can run. <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">ResolveTransactionsFlow</span></code> calls
|
|
<code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">FetchTransactionsFlow</span></code> to perform the actual retrieval.</p>
|
|
<p>It is encouraged that where possible attachments are reusable data, so that nodes can meaningfully cache them.</p>
|
|
<div class="section" id="attachments-demo">
|
|
<h2>Attachments demo<a class="headerlink" href="#attachments-demo" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
|
|
<p>There is a worked example of attachments, which relays a simple document from one node to another. The “two party
|
|
trade flow” also includes an attachment, however it is a significantly more complex demo, and less well suited
|
|
for a tutorial.</p>
|
|
<p>The demo code is in the file “src/main/kotlin/net.corda.demos/attachment/AttachmentDemo.kt”, with the core logic
|
|
contained within the two functions <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">runRecipient()</span></code> and <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">runSender()</span></code>. We’ll look at the recipient function first;
|
|
this subscribes to notifications of new validated transactions, and if it receives a transaction containing attachments,
|
|
loads the first attachment from storage, and checks it matches the expected attachment ID. <code class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">ResolveTransactionsFlow</span></code>
|
|
has already fetched all attachments from the remote node, and as such the attachments are available from the node’s
|
|
storage service. Once the attachment is verified, the node shuts itself down.</p>
