[DEPRECATED]

⚠️ Project Deprecation ⚠️

This repo will be archived on June 1, 2026.

Tessera is no longer supported. For more information on this decision and alternatives, refer to this [blog post](https://www.lfdecentralizedtrust.org/blog/sunsetting-tessera-and-simplifying-hyperledger-besu).

> __Important: Breaking change__ <br/>Users running on [21.10.0](https://github.com/ConsenSys/tessera/releases/tag/tessera-21.10.0) and previous versions will need to perform a database upgrade to work with the latest version of Tessera.<li> For non-H2 users, existing database schema will need to be updated. Execute the appropriate [alter script](ddls/add-codec) provided.</li> <li> For H2 users, a complete database migration is required before running the [alter script](ddls/add-codec). This is due to the considerable number of changes between version 1.4.200 and version 2.0.202 onwards. See more details from [H2 release](https://github.com/h2database/h2database/releases/tag/version-2.0.202) and their recommended [upgrade process](https://h2database.com/html/tutorial.html#upgrade_backup_restore). Example migration scripts can be found [here](ddls/scripts/h2-upgrade.sh)

> __Important: If using version 21.4.1 and earlier__ <br/>Tessera is now released as a zipped distribution instead of an uber jar.  If using version 21.4.1 and earlier, see the [previous README](https://github.com/ConsenSys/tessera/tree/tessera-21.4.1).

Tessera is a stateless Java system that is used to enable the encryption, decryption, and distribution of private transactions for [Quorum](https://github.com/consensys/quorum/)

Each Tessera node:

* Generates and maintains a number of private/public key pairs

* Self manages and discovers all nodes in the network (i.e. their public keys) by connecting to as few as one other node

* Provides Private and Public API interfaces for communication:
    * Private API - This is used for communication with Quorum
    * Public API - This is used for communication between Tessera peer nodes

* Provides two way SSL using TLS certificates and various trust models like Trust On First Use (TOFU), whitelist,
    certificate authority, etc.

* Supports IP whitelist

* Connects to any SQL DB which supports the JDBC client

## Documentation
[Docs](https://docs.tessera.consensys.net/en/stable/)

## Artefacts

### Runnable distributions

#### Tessera
- [Tessera distribution](https://github.com/consensys/tessera/releases): Start a Tessera node

#### Remote Enclave Server
- [Remote Enclave Server distribution](enclave/enclave-jaxrs): Start a remote enclave

### Optional Artefacts

The following artefacts can be [added to a distribution](#supplementing-the-distribution) to provide additional functionality.

#### Key Vaults
- [Azure](key-vault/azure-key-vault): Add support for key pairs stored in Azure Key Vault 
- [AWS](key-vault/aws-key-vault): Add support for key pairs stored in AWS Secret Store
- [Hashicorp](key-vault/hashicorp-key-vault): Add support for key pairs stored in Hashicorp Vault

#### Encryptors
- [jnacl](encryption/encryption-jnacl): (already included in Tessera and Remote Enclave Server distributions) Add support for NaCl key pairs using [jnacl](https://github.com/neilalexander/jnacl) library
- [Elliptical Curve](encryption/encryption-ec): Add support for elliptic curve key pairs
- [kalium](encryption/encryption-kalium): Add support for NaCl key pairs using [kalium](https://github.com/abstractj/kalium) library

## Prerequisites
- [Java](https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html)
    - Java 17+

- [Optional: Gradle](https://gradle.org/install/)<br/>
    - If you want to use a locally installed Gradle rather than the included wrapper. Note: wrapper currently uses Gradle 7.0.2.

## Building Tessera from source
To build and install Tessera:
1. Clone this repo
1. Build using the included Gradle Wrapper file
    ```
    ./gradlew build   
    ```

## Installing Tessera
Download and unpack distribution:
```
$ tar xvf tessera-[version].tar
$ tree tessera-[version]
tessera-[version]
├── bin
│   ├── tessera
│   └── tessera.bat
└── lib
    ├── HikariCP-3.2.0.jar
    ...
```
Run Tessera (use correct `/bin` script for your system): 
```
./tessera-[version]/bin/tessera help
```

## Supplementing the distribution

Additional functionality can be added to a distribution by adding `.jar` files to the `/lib` directory.

### Adding Tessera artefacts

Download and unpack the artefact:
```
$ tar xvf aws-key-vault-[version].tar
$ tree aws-key-vault-[version]
aws-key-vault-[version].tar
└── lib
    ├── annotations-2.10.25.jar
    ...
```

Copy the contents of the artefact's `/lib` into the distribution `/lib` (make sure to resolve any version conflicts/duplicated `.jar` files introduced during the copy):

```
 cp -a aws-key-vault-[version]/lib/. tessera-[version]/lib/
```

### Supporting alternate databases

By default, Tessera uses an H2 database.  To use an alternative database, add the necessary drivers to the `lib/` dir:

For example, to use Oracle database:
```
cp ojdbc7.jar tessera-[version]/lib/
```

[DDLs](ddls/create-table) have been provided to help with defining these databases.

Since Tessera 0.7 a timestamp is recorded with each encrypted transaction stored in the Tessera DB.  To update an existing DB to work with Tessera 0.7+, execute one of the provided [alter scripts](ddls/add-timestamp).

## Docker images

* See [quorumengineering/tessera](https://hub.docker.com/repository/docker/quorumengineering/tessera) Docker repository for available images
    * See [docker/README.md](docker) for details on the various images available

* To build images from source see [docker/README.md](docker)

## Configuration

### Config File

A configuration file detailing database, server and network peer information must be provided using the `-configfile`
command line property.

An in-depth look at configuring Tessera can be found in the [Tessera Documentation](https://docs.tessera.consensys.net/en/latest/HowTo/Configure/Tessera) and includes details on all aspects of configuration including:
* Cryptographic key config:
    * Using existing private/public key pairs with Tessera
    * How to use Tessera to generate new key pairs
* TLS config
    * How to enable TLS
    * Choosing a trust mode

#### Obfuscate database password in config file

Certain entries in Tessera config file must be obfuscated in order to prevent any attempts from attackers to gain access to critical part of the application (i.e. database). For the time being, Tessera users have the ability to enable encryption for database password to avoid it being exposed as plain text in the configuration file.

In Tessera, [jasypt](http://www.jasypt.org) library was used together with its Jaxb integration to encrypt/decrypt config values.

To enable this feature, simply replace your plain-text database password with its encrypted value and wrap it inside an `ENC()` function.

```json
    "jdbc": {
        "username": "sa",
        "password": "ENC(ujMeokIQ9UFHSuBYetfRjQTpZASgaua3)",
        "url": "jdbc:h2:/qdata/c1/db1",
        "autoCreateTables": true
    }
```

Being a Password-Based Encryptor, Jasypt requires a secret key (password) and a configured algorithm to encrypt/decrypt this config entry. This password can either be loaded into Tessera from file system or user input. For file system input, the location of this secret file needs to be set in Environment Variable `TESSERA_CONFIG_SECRET`

If the database password is not being wrapped inside `ENC()` function, Tessera will simply treat it as a plain-text password however this approach is not recommended for production environment.

* Please note at the moment jasypt encryption is only enabled on `jdbc.password` field.

##### Encrypt database password

Download and unzip the [jasypt](http://www.jasypt.org) package. Redirect to bin directory and the follow commands can be used to encrypt a string

```bash
bash-3.2$ ./encrypt.sh input=dbpassword password=quorum

----ENVIRONMENT-----------------

Runtime: Oracle Corporation Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 25.171-b11

----ARGUMENTS-------------------

input: dbpassword
password: quorum

----OUTPUT----------------------

rJ70hNidkrpkTwHoVn2sGSp3h3uBWxjb

```

Pick up this output and wrap it inside `ENC()` function, we should have the following `ENC(rJ70hNidkrpkTwHoVn2sGSp3h3uBWxjb)` in the config json file.
