Sample repository implemented in regards to the Cardano blockchain.
Copilot: Smart contracts are self-executing contracts with the terms of the agreement between buyer and seller being directly written into lines of code. They are stored on a blockchain network and automatically execute when certain conditions are met. Here are some examples of smart contract use cases:
- Finance: Smart contracts can be used for trading, investing, lending, and borrowing
- Healthcare: Smart contracts can be used to store and share medical records securely and efficiently
- Gaming: Smart contracts can be used to create decentralized gaming platforms that allow players to earn cryptocurrency rewards
- Real Estate: Smart contracts can be used to automate the process of buying and selling real estate, reducing the need for intermediaries
- Legal Industry: Smart contracts can be used to automate legal agreements, such as wills and trusts

Ramp up the docker-compose cluster containing the cardano-node container and cardano-wallet container
Refer to Quickstart section here. Ramp up the docker-compose and select one of the Cardano Environment:
# On Unix systems or on Windows OS 10 with Git Bash or WSL
NETWORK=preview docker-compose up -d --build # Preview Testnet (preferred for development)
NETWORK=preprod docker-compose up -d --build # Pre-Production Testnet
NETWORK=mainnet docker-compose up -d --build # Production (Mainnet)
# This will start up the Cardano node and wallet applications and connect to the specified network (mainnet, preview, preprod)docker exec -it <cardano-wallet or cardano-node container id> sh# with curl
curl http:https://localhost:8090/v2/network/information
# with cli in cardano-wallet container
docker run --network host --rm cardanofoundation/cardano-wallet network information
# Wallet operations
docker run --network host --rm cardanofoundation/cardano-wallet wallet list
docker run --network host --rm cardanofoundation/cardano-wallet wallet delete <wallet id>Execute sample app:
cd cardano-wallet-app
pip install -r requirements.txt
python main.pyExecute sample app in a docker container:
cd cardano-wallet-app
docker build -t python-cardano-sample-app:stable . # Build docker image
docker run --network host --rm python-cardano-sample-app:stable sh "python main.py" # Start a containerCompile contract:
cd cardano-smart-contract
pip install -r requirements.txt
opshin build simple-withdraw-contract.py # It checks the presence of a specific signature in the transaction to approve spending funds
opshin build simple-healthcare-contract.py # This smart contract defines a HealthDatum data class that inherits from PlutusData. The HealthDatum class has five attributes: patient_id, doctor_id, diagnosis, treatment, and cost. The validator function checks if the cost attribute of the datum object is greater than zero and if the length of the patient_id and doctor_id attributes is 32 bytes. If any of these conditions are not met, the function raises an AssertionError with an appropriate message.Compile contract in a docker container:
cd cardano-smart-contract
docker build -t python-cardano-sample-smart-contract:stable . # Build docker image
docker run --rm -v $(pwd)/contract/:/app/build/simple-withdraw-contract/ python-cardano-sample-smart-contract:stable sh "opshin build simple-withdraw-contract.py" # Start a container, It checks the presence of a specific signature in the transaction to approve spending funds
docker run --rm -v $(pwd)/contract/:/app/build/simple-healthcare-contract/ python-cardano-sample-smart-contract:stable sh "opshin build simple-healthcare-contract.py" # Start a container, It checks the presence of a specific signature in the transaction to approve spending fundsSmart contracts need to be deployed to the Cardano blockchain.
