Project
Hyperledger Caliper
Project Health
After several times public introduction of Caliper, the amount of users got an increase. There were increasing consulting questions in rocket chat and issues. Most of the questions were well answered. Some of the users gave good suggestions about improving documentations and caliper's installation. Some of the users became contributors and tried to contribute some performance metrics. Besides that, Caliper also tried to attract more contributors by internship program.
Issues
There are no issues at this time.
Releases
Caliper plans to release alpha version before Q3.
Overall Activity in the Past Quarter
During the past Quarter, 60 issues have been closed, 37 PRs have been reviewed and merged. Now the project has 260+ starts and 160+ forks.Thanks every contributor's efforts. Below are some main updates in the past 3 months:
- Added support for Fabric 1.3/1.4;
- Refactored Fabric adapter by providing connection profile-based adapters;
- Provided file mode to support long time test;
- Fixed bugs for CI test, sawtooth building;
- Enhanced abilities, such as logging mechanism, rate controller and creating fabric network.
- Improved documentation, e.g. documentation translation, usage of new fabric adapter and tutorials.
Current Plans
As many users told us they had difficulty in installation and doing stressful tests, we are going to focus on improving the documentations, installation, the clients' performance under stressful tests, and adding new adapters.
The development plan will be discussed and refreshed regularly
