Portal (Oracle Middleware)
The sandbox oracle serves the application's JSON API, abstracting the details of interacting with smart contracts from API consumers.
A blockchain oracle is a service that provides smart contracts with information from the outside world.

Making Changes
Testing Changes
The oracle defines tests in files with names like oracle/*_test.go. These are
functional tests which test application API and the code paths connecting the
oracle to the phylum. The functional tests can be run with the following
command:
make test
From the project's top level make oraclegotest will run the same tests.
Running Tests Outside of Docker
To run tests directly using go test there are environment variables needed to
for the tests to set up an in-memory copy of the platform to run tests on.
eval $(make host-go-env)
go test ./...
This can be faster than running the tests in docker and has some additional benefits. For example, the following command runs only the tests related to the CreateAccount API endpoint:
go test -run=CreateAccount ./...
