Launching a sample trade network

So, now that we have all the configuration for our network, and also the channel artifacts and cryptographic material required to run it, all we need to do is start the network using the docker-compose command, as follows:

docker-compose -f docker-compose-e2e.yaml up

You can run this as a background process and redirect the standard output to a log file if you so choose. Otherwise, you will see the various containers starting up and logs from each displayed on the console.

Note that on some OS configurations, setting up Fabric can be tricky. If you run into problems, consult the documentation. A detailed description of how to install a Fabric network and examples is provided at https://hyperledger-fabric.readthedocs.io/en/release-1.1/samples.html ...
