Description
The Hyperledger Labs blockchain-carbon-accounting project includes a Hyperledger Fabric network for recording the carbon and Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions that cause climate change. Since there are many activities that cause such emissions, the network is designed to accept data from multiple sources of measurements. In this project, we will demonstrate integrations from measurement sources with blockchain networks by integrating the ThoughtWorks cloud computing emissions calculator, the NREL OpenPath mobile application, and other web- and mobile-based API's sources to turn instrumented readings into emissions measurements. It will leverage previous projects involving Hyperledger Cactus, Vault security engines, and client security for Hyperledger Fabric.
Additional Information
Please see the following issue for ongoing development related to this mentorship:
https://github.com/hyperledger-labs/blockchain-carbon-accounting/issues/501
The issue requires modifying an existing res-api operating as an oracle allowing the fabric emissions chaincode channel to request emission measurements/calculations from approved rest-apis.
The candidate should have a good grasp of setting up and deploying docker containers, understand how to run a Fabric network and building a rest-API. Should have experience using typescript and working with typeorm to setup connections to a structured database.
