ConsenSource

ConsenSource is a blockchain platform for verifying sustainability-certified suppliers. This application also serves as a transparent platform for displaying industry certifications and audit data between parties (certificate accrediting groups, certificate issuers, suppliers, etc.).

ConsenSource runs on Hyperledger Sawtooth, an enterprise blockchain solution.

Overview

ConsenSource consists of several components

• consensource-api - A REST API that provides endpoints for accessing blockchain data, user information, and state data.

• consensource-processor - A transaction processor for handling ConsenSource transaction logic.

• consensource-sds - An event subscriber that listens to blockchain events in order to parse incoming data to be stored in an off-chain reporting database.

• consensource-cli - A command line interface for creating ConsenSource blockchain transactions including agents, organizations, certificates, standards and accreditations.

• consensource-database - A database library for handling off-chain storage.

• consensource-common - A common repo for housing custom Rust libraries, protobuf definitions, and Dockerfiles.

• consensource-ui - Multiple user interfaces for each entity (standards bodies, certification bodies, suppliers and retailers) to interact with the ConsenSource blockchain.
