To create our trade channel, we first need to instantiate a fabric-client instance and a handle to the orderer using the configuration in config.json (see the createChannel function in create-channel.js):
var client = new Client();var orderer = client.newOrderer( ORGS.orderer.url, { 'pem': caroots, 'ssl-target-name-override': ORGS.orderer['server-hostname'] });
We use a file-based key-value store to save the ledger world state as follows (it is left as an exercise to the reader to try out other types of store, such as CouchDB, using CouchDBKeyValueStore.js):
utils.setConfigSetting('key-value-store', 'fabric-client/lib/impl/FileKeyValueStore.js');
Next, we must enroll an administrator user for the orderer (using the mechanisms ...
