Skuchain EDP Documentation
Skuchain's External Developer Portal documentation covers Skuchain's platform for inventory control and financing. It is meant to introduce developers to the platform and showcase the features of the SDK.
Product Overview
This section highlights Skuchain's supply chain management through the tokenization of inventory. Using token types and token ledgers, the platform enables businesses to convert physical assets into secure, tradable digital assets, streamlining processes like inventory control, financing, and ownership transfers. This creates transparency and efficiency across supply chains, benefiting suppliers, buyers, and financiers alike.
Software Development Kit (SDK)
The skc-sct-sdk empowers developers to interact with Skuchain's platform using a suite of robust and flexible tools. This section provides the details and examples to get started, whether the goal is to tokenize assets, manage SKUs, or handle payments.
Command Line Interface (CLI)
General CLI:
The skc-sct-cli is used to interact with supply chain tokens on Skuchain's platform. This section covers how ot get started with the CLI and apply it to various supply chain flows.
Protocol Command Line Interface (CLI)
The skc-nodeio-cli is a streamlined command-line tool designed for direct interaction with Ethereum networks, enabling efficient transaction management independent of CMS dependencies. This CLI facilitates user management, token operations, and ledger tracking, with flexible transaction signing via private keys or secure vault integration.
Workflows
The sct-workflows consists of sample workflows, designed for users to be able to execute multiple transactions based on requirement using the skc-nodeio-cli.
Token Types
Using the platform, you can tokenize your trade assets. For this, you first generate a token type, each of which will represent one category of assets. You can further also set fine-grained tunings to these token types like their ability to be created more of, or be created out of other token types.
Token Ledgers
A token ledger functions as a repository for tokens. It is a utility contract designed for interacting with different token types, facilitating token deposits, exchanges, and transfers.
Trading Tokens
Trade on Skuchain's platform is facilitated using a centralized marketplace service where organizations can list and trade their cryptographically secured assets with authorized entities.
Managing Keys
Cryptographically generated keys must be kept safe and secure. In this section you can see how these keys are handled securely.
AWS
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is a cloud platform that offers scalable and secure infrastructure for transaction handling, including services like Lambda for execution, API Gateway for access control, and KMS for encryption. AWS ensures efficient real-time transaction processing with auto-scaling, monitoring, and security.
Signing Up
Signing up is one of the initial steps required for organizations to onboard onto Skuchain's platform and begin trades.
