Docker Support? #107

Closed jasonrhaas closed 6 years ago

jasonrhaas commented 6 years ago

What was wrong?

Nothing wrong, but it would be convenient to have a docker container for easier developer env setup. For example, I am running web3.py locally but I need a testrpc running to test with. Since I'm also running web3.py in docker, I could simply add a eth-testrpc docker image to the docker-compose.yml file and the web3.py docker container would have access to the test port 8545.

eth-testrpc is going away in the near-term future in favor of eth-tester. I still think this is an appropriate thing to support, just pointing out that it'll be in a different library to avoid having you waste too much of your time on eth-testrpc.

Gotcha, can close this one then. In the mean time I can use the Truffle suite to run a testrpc locally on port 8545.
