Add flag 'expose ports' with default `true`

[Hejwo]

Recent Service Discovery changes forced not only exposing orderer's, ca's, peer's ports but also matching port numbers . Example:

• Every peer must be mapped like this: - 7060:7060
• full peer address must be peer1.org1.com:7060

This config is need in developers environment. Testing application running on local machine and connecting to docker-compose network, but in CI pipelines, demo environments we don;t need to map anything and containerize our app.

It would be good to have flag for such case in networkSettings section

Hi @Hejwo , could please guide me how to solve this issue as I'm new to fablo ? Could you tell me where to find the networkSettings section ?

Hi @ggold7046 thanks for asking :)

Unfortunately the feature was not yet implemented (I can guide you if you want to help with implementation).

About networkSettings section:

• expose ports issue is an old one
• since that time we've refactored a bit fablo config structure.
• networkSettings is now called global
• you usually can find it at top of fabloConfig:

{
  "$schema": "https://github.com/hyperledger-labs/fablo/releases/download/1.1.0/schema.json",
  "global": {
    "fabricVersion": "2.4.0",
    "tls": false,
    "peerDevMode": false
  },

Thanks @piotrhejwowski , I would love to try it. So how do I start ? Which file should I dig in ?
