Docker entry node
This folder contains the scripts for running a GoShimmer entry node with Docker.
It builds the Docker image directly from the specified Git tag (such as v0.1.3, master, af0ae41d5bfd607123e6cbae271da839a050b220, ...) and does not depend on the locally checked out version.
The GoShimmer DB is persisted in a named Docker volume.
The entry node exposes the following ports on the host:
- 14626/udp (Autopeering)
- 188/tcp (Analysis Server)
- 80/tcp (Analysis Dashboard)
How to run
Create the Docker volume
Before starting an entry node for the specified git tag the first time, a Docker volume needs to be created. This is only needed once and can be done via the following command:
TAG=tag ./create-volume.shThe environment variable TAG contains the Git tag of the desired GoShimmer version.
Run the GoShimmer entry node
To start the actual entry node, run the following:
TAG=tag SEED=seed docker-compose up -d --buildThe optional environment variable SEED contains the autopeering seed of the entry node in Base64 encoding.
If SEED is not set, the seed will be taken from the DB (if present) in the volume.
As such, SEED is only required once when setting or changing the seed of the entry node.
Alternatively to providing the variables in the command, create the file .env in the base folder with the following content:
# Git tag of the entry node version
TAG=tag
# Autopeering seed used for the entry node
SEED=seed
