A utility that conveniently links MongoDB to EOS blockchains.

Motive

Blockchains provide security and transparency. Unfortunately it's very difficult for existing applications to take advantage of the benefits they offer. We're migrating towards a world where the public will not trust unverifiable data sources. With TamperProof, anyone can prove the state of their MongoDB database by fingerprinting it on a EOS powered blockchain.

Installation

npm i -g tamperproof

Usage

Hash a 'single' document.

tamperproof \
-d database_name \
-c collection_name \
-x mongodb+srv://mongodb_connection_string \
-i 5cbba8a857a66431e9bb2164 \
-a accountuser1 \
-k 5J7J5tD9WrKWAkAVyXLNonh2WcVqWBXxajmMthDPTuJbBksDhyz

Hash a 'whole' collection.

tamperproof \
-d database_name \
-c collection_name \
-x mongodb+srv://mongodb_connection_string \
-a accountuser1 \
-k 5J7J5tD9WrKWAkAVyXLNonh2WcVqWBXxajmMthDPTuJbBksDhyz

Sample Result

Interpreting Results

Both the "identifier" and the "data" properties are hashed with SHA256.

• The identifier is a hash of an array converted to a string. The array is one of the following formats: ["database","collection"] or ["database","collection","_id"]
• The data is a hash of a string of the Result returned from the database. This string is created by passing the DB result to JSON.stringify().

Parameters

| Parameter | Example | Purpose | Required | |-----------|--------------------------------------------------------|----------------------------------------|----------| | -x | mongodb+srv://:@cluster0-bwwwb.mongodb.net | MongoDB connection string. | YES | | -d | my_database_name | MongoDB database name. | No | | -c | my_collection_name | MongoDB collection name. | No | | -i | 5cbba8a857a66431e9bb2164 | _id for document lookup. | No | | -k | 5J7J5tD9WrKWAkAVyXLNonh2WcVqWBXxajmMthDPTuJbBksDhyz | EOSIO private key (active permission). | YES | | -a | useraccount1 | EOSIO account name. | YES | | -e | https://publicapi-mainnet.eosauthority.com | EOSIO http endpoint. | No |

• Note: Sensitive parameters should be stored as session data and not passed via command line.

Use Programatically

let tamperproof = require("tamperproof")

;(async () => {
  let result = await tamperproof({
    d: "my_database_name",
    c: "my_collection_name",
    i: "5cbba8a857a66431e9bb2164",
    x: "mongodb+srv://<user>:<pass>@cluster0-bwwwb.mongodb.net",
    a: "useraccount1",
    k: "5J7J5tD9WrKWAkAVyXLNonh2WcVqWBXxajmMthDPTuJbBksDhyz",
    e: "https://publicapi-mainnet.eosauthority.com" // endpoint required.
  })
})()

Acquire Blockchain Account

Accounts are free on private EOS blockchains. If you wish to use the public EOS blockchain (default setting) there is a small one-time fee (typically ~$1). This will provide you with both a private key and account name of your choice (-k and -a params).
