PDF Lease Agreement Generator & IPFS Anchoring

Summary

This PR implements a comprehensive PDF lease agreement generation system with IPFS anchoring, bridging the gap between decentralized smart contracts and legally binding, real-world rental agreements.

Issue Reference

Closes #90

🚀 Features Implemented

Core Functionality

  • PDF Generation Service: Professional lease agreements using pdfmake with complete lease data mapping
  • IPFS Integration: Multi-provider support (Pinata, Web3.Storage, Local IPFS) with automatic fallback
  • Asynchronous Processing: BullMQ worker for non-blocking PDF generation with retry logic
  • Blockchain Anchoring: Embeds Soroban transaction hash in PDF footer for cryptographic verification

API Endpoints

  • GET /api/v1/leases/:id/contract - Stream PDF directly from IPFS
  • GET /api/v1/leases/:id/contract/status - Check generation status
  • POST /api/v1/leases/:id/contract/generate - Manual generation trigger
  • GET /api/v1/leases/contracts/queue/stats - Queue monitoring
  • POST /api/v1/leases/contracts/cleanup - Maintenance endpoint

Database Schema

  • lease_pdf_records table for PDF metadata and IPFS CIDs
  • pdf_generation_jobs table for job tracking and monitoring
  • Proper indexing for performance optimization

📁 Files Added

🔒 Security & Reliability

  • Cryptographic Linking: Transaction hash embedding ensures document authenticity
  • Immutable Storage: IPFS provides permanent, tamper-proof storage
  • Access Control: API endpoints verify lease ownership
  • Error Handling: Comprehensive retry logic and fallback mechanisms
  • Audit Trail: Complete logging of all PDF generation events

📊 Performance

  • Asynchronous Processing: Non-blocking PDF generation
  • Queue Management: BullMQ provides job prioritization and scaling
  • Memory Efficiency: Streaming PDF generation without disk storage
  • Caching: IPFS CID caching for instant retrieval

🚀 Deployment

  1. Install dependencies: npm install
  2. Configure IPFS provider credentials in .env
  3. Run database migration
  4. Ensure Redis is running for BullMQ
  5. Start the application

📝 Usage Examples

Frontend Integration

// Request PDF generation
const response = await fetch('/api/v1/leases/lease-123/contract');
if (response.status === 202) {
  // PDF generation in progress
  const { jobId } = await response.json();
  // Poll status endpoint for completion
}

Smart Contract Integration

// After lease initialization on blockchain
await fetch(`/api/v1/leases/${leaseId}/contract/generate`, {
  method: 'POST',
  body: JSON.stringify({ priority: 'high' })
});
