Production Workflow Implementation

Enterprise Best Practices

Before building custom workflows, review our Node-RED enterprise guide for production-ready development patterns and security considerations.

Real-World Enterprise Example

This comprehensive example demonstrates building a production-ready blockchain API endpoint using SettleMint's Integration Studio. We'll create an enterprise-grade service to query the latest block number from a Polygon Mumbai network, showcasing the platform's capabilities for real-time blockchain data access.

Prerequisites: Ensure you have a Polygon Mumbai Node deployed within your SettleMint application for this enterprise integration example.

Add http input node

Drag and drop a Http In node to listen for requests. If you double-click the node, you will see you have a couple parameters to set:

METHOD - set it to GET. This is HTTP Method that your node is configured to listen to.
URL - set it to /getLatestBlock. This the endpoint that your node will listen to.

Add function node

Drag and drop a function node. This is the node that will query the blockchain for the block number. Double-click the node to configure it.

rpcEndpoint is the RPC url of your Polygon Mumbai Node. Under the Connect tab of your Polygon Mumbai node, you will find its RPC url.

accessToken - You will need an access token for your application. If you do not have one, you can easily create an access token first.

Enter the following snippet in the Message tab:

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// Configuration                                         //
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

const rpcEndpoint = "https://YOUR_NODE_RPC_ENDPOINT.settlemint.com";
const accessToken = "YOUR_APPLICATION_ACCESS_TOKEN_HERE";

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// Logic                                                 //
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

const ethers = global.get("ethers");
const provider = new ethers.providers.JsonRpcProvider(
  `${rpcEndpoint}/${accessToken}`
);
msg.payload = await provider.getBlockNumber();

return msg;

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// End                                                   //
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

Note: ethers and some ipfs libraries are already available by default and can be used like this:

const ethers = global.get("ethers");
const provider = new ethers.providers.JsonRpcProvider(
  `${rpcEndpoint}/${accessToken}`
);

const ipfsHttpClient = global.get("ipfsHttpClient");
const client = ipfsHttpClient.create(`${ipfsEndpoint}/${accessToken}/api/v0`);

const uint8arrays = global.get("uint8arrays");
const itAll = global.get("itAll");
const data = uint8arrays.toString(
  uint8arrays.concat(await itAll(client.cat(cid)))
);

If the library you need isn't available by default you will need to import it in the setup tab. Example for ethers providers: Ethers Project Import

Add http response node

Drag and drop a Http Response node to reply to the request. Double-click and configure:

Status code - This is the HTTP status code that the node will respond with after completion of the request. We set it to 200 (OK)

Click on the Deploy button in the top right corner to save and deploy your changes.

Test your endpoint

Now, go back to the Connect tab of your Integration Studio to see your API endpoint, which looks something like https://YOUR_INTEGRATION_STUDIO_API_URL.settlemint.com.

You can now send requests to https://YOUR_INTEGRATION_STUDIO_API_URL.settlemint.com/getLatestBlock to get the latest block number. Do not forget to create an API Key for your Integration studio and pass it as the x-auth-token authorization header with your request.

Example terminal command:

curl -H "x-auth-token: bpaas-YOUR_INTEGRATION_KEY_HERE" https://YOUR_INTEGRATION_STUDIO_API_URL.settlemint.com/getLatestBlock
