Docker image that runs the Dash dashd node in a container for easy deployment.
One liner for Ubuntu 18.04 LTS machines with JSON-RPC enabled on localhost and adds upstart init script:
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dashpay/docker-dashd/master/bootstrap-host.sh | sh -s bionic
Create a dashd-data
volume to persist the dashd blockchain data, should exit immediately. The dashd-data
container will store the blockchain when the node container is recreated (software upgrade, reboot, etc):
docker volume create --name=dashd-data
docker run -v dashd-data:/dash --name=dashd-node -d \
-p 9999:9999 \
-p 127.0.0.1:9998:9998 \
dashpay/dashd
Verify that the container is running and dashd node is downloading the blockchain
$ docker ps
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
d0e1076b2dca dashpay/dashd:latest "dash_oneshot" 2 seconds ago Up 1 seconds 127.0.0.1:9998->9998/tcp, 0.0.0.0:9999->9999/tcp dashd-node
You can then access the daemon's output thanks to the docker logs command
docker logs -f dashd-node
Install optional init scripts for upstart and systemd are in the init
directory.
To run in testnet, add environment variable TESTNET=1
to docker run
as such:
docker run -v dashd-data:/dash --name=dashd-node -d \
--env TESTNET=1 \
-p 9999:9999 \
-p 127.0.0.1:9998:9998 \
