In Progress

Indy Release 1.13

• Things are happening
• Soon ready (still)
• New 1.13 Networks are working
• Upgrade Tests 1.12 → 1.13 of existing Networks are the biggest outstanding issue

Upgrade Test (DEV Netz)

• Siemens
• Esatus
  • Lead: Christopher
• MGM
• Bosch
• T-Labs

Next Steps

• It makes more sense to fokus our ressources on the Indy Release 1.13 upgrade testing than to work on containers for 1.12.
• We will fokus on upgrade tests from now on to make enable the 1.13 upgrade ASAP

  • https://github.com/hyperledger/indy-node-container/issues/112

Indy Node Controller

• https://github.com/hyperledger/indy-node-container/pull/123
  • IP Adress conflict on github runner → Remove network bridging
    
    • Done

Container

• Use smaller base images
• python-slim + pypi indy packages?
  • Phillipp: Caution: pypi packages are not identical to deb versions
  • differences regarding config files for indy-node (https://github.com/hyperledger/indy-node/blob/ubuntu-20.04-upgrade/build-scripts/ubuntu-2004/prepare-package.sh)

Alerting

• Sebastian Z finished work on slack alerting action.
• Send webhook to Sebastian Schmittner → Forward to Stephen Curranto add to github repo, then MR github action
• Replace scan → github security alerts or do both?
  • BOTH
  • Sebastian Schmittner

Logging

• Stale PR https://github.com/hyperledger/indy-node-container/pull/83

• Discussion today:
  • Rather document how to edit the https://github.com/hyperledger/indy-node-container/blob/main/run/etc_indy/indy_config.py then overwriting those variables at container start through init script
  • Network Name → same!?
  • Definietly keep READE + docker logging explanation
  • → sesinsible default for logging in docker compose
  • Sebastian Schmittner

Metrics

• Carlos: https://github.com/IDunion/indy-node-monitor
• https://github.com/WadeBarnes/indy-node-monitor/tree/monitoring-stack
• Existing Prometheus + Grafana setup by IFIS

Security

The node keys handling is currently sub optimal (env variable). Should be improved to e.g. file based setup: https://github.com/IDunion/indy-node-container/issues/52

• Cristian already has a nice setup elsewhere and offers to port it
  • https://github.com/internet-sicherheit/sovrin-container
  • Merge of IFIS repo?

Support for non-docker setup

• Helm Charts
  • Might geht interesting at some point in the future 
    • Potential Clients Spherity/MGM
• Podman
  • https://github.com/IDunion/indy-node-container/issues/48

Next Meeting

• Next regular meeting: 2023-05-26 10:00-10:25 (Berlin time)
