Docker/Kubernetes configurations for launching BTC1 nodes. #128

Closed zquestz closed 6 years ago

zquestz commented 7 years ago

I am posting here based on my conversation with @jgarzik today. Right now getting more 2X nodes in the wild is super important, so I think links or docs pointing to Docker Images and Kubernetes configurations could be very useful for the project.

Here is a docker image for 1.14.5 which is available at: https://github.com/zquestz/docker-bitcoin/tree/master/btc1/1.14.5

You can also download it from Docker Hub at https://hub.docker.com/r/zquestz/bitcoin-btc1/

It seems 1.15.0 is being released soon, as I see an unfilled entry for it on the releases page. I will update the images to 1.15.0 when it is available.

In addition I have Kubernetes configurations for GCE that might be useful. They are available via the following gist: https://gist.github.com/zquestz/0007d1ede543478d44556280fdf238c9

Let me know if you need anything else. =)

A sample conf file would be helpful as well

zquestz commented 6 years ago

The conf is available in the github repo. https://github.com/zquestz/docker-bitcoin/tree/master/btc1/1.14.5

Just look at the Dockerfile. =)

There is already ~900 SegWit2x compatible nodes; you'd sacrifice network decentralization by leading people to the same VPS providers as a single point of failure. It's cheaper to run a few nodes on existing hardware using different VPN's. This way you are not in a single point of failure scenario; your nodes can be placed anywhere in the world; most homes or businesses have 10-100 Megabit connections if not Gigabit fiber with close to FIVE-NINES (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five_nines).

Umm, that's why I provided the Docker image, that can be run anywhere. The kubernetes configurations were only provided as a bonus, as I wrote them for myself 3 months ago.

Why is everyone so negative? Seems no one ever has anything nice to say.

Everyone is on edge. :( Everything is a perceived attack.

Your image was extremely helpful for me. Thank you.

@zquestz Nice work, thanks :-)
