Answer 1

Last time I've tried to run Hyperledger Fabric on RPi I've prepared following instructions:

1. Install latest RASPBIAN on SD card, you can download image from:
 https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/raspbian/

2. Update and upgrade latest by running:


   sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade -y
   

3. Install required dependencies:


   sudo apt-get install git curl gcc libc6-dev libltdl3-dev python-setuptools -y
   

4. Upgrade python pip installer:


   sudo -H pip install pip --upgrade
   

5. Install docker and docker compose:

   curl -sSL get.docker.com | shsudo usermod -aG docker pisudo pip install docker-compose
   

6. Logout/Login terminal session, so changes will take effect.

7. Install golang, by following instructions from: https://golang.org/doc/install

8. Create golang directory:

   mkdir -p /home/pi/golang && mkdir -p /home/pi/golang/src/github/hyperledger/
   

9. Define environment variable

   export GOPATH=/home/pi/golang
   

10. Make sure go binaries are in the path, e.g.:


    export PATH=/usr/local/go/bin:$PATH
    

11. Clone fabric-baseimage repository into /home/pi/golang/src/github/hyperledger/

    git clone https://github.com/hyperledger/fabric-baseimage.git
    

12. Clone client fabric repository into /home/pi/golang/src/github/hyperledger/


    git clone https://github.com/hyperledger/fabric.git
    

13. Build based docker images

    cd ~/golang/src/github/hyperledger/fabric-baseimage && make docker-local
    

14. Apply following patch to fabric code base:
