BGLd for Docker

===================



  



Docker image that runs the Bitgesell bgld node in a container for easy deployment.

Requirements

------------

* Physical machine, cloud instance, or VPS that supports Docker i.e. Vultr, Digital Ocean, KVM or XEN based VMs) running Ubuntu 18.04 or later

* At least 10 GB to store the block chain files (and always growing!)

* At least 500 MB + 1 GB swap file

Really Fast Quick Start

-----------------------

One liner for Ubuntu 20.04 LTS machines with JSON-RPC enabled on localhost and adds upstart init script:

    curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/naftalimurgor/bgld-docker/master/bootstrap-host.sh | sh

Quick Start

-----------

1. Run an instance of Bitegesell node as follows:

        docker run -dp 8454:8454 naftalimurgor/bgld:latest

2. Verify that the container is running and bgld node is downloading the blockchain

        $ docker ps

        CONTAINER ID   IMAGE                COMMAND   CREATED         STATUS         PORTS                                                 NAMES

        304e5a74a539   naftalimurgor/bgld   "BGLd"    5 seconds ago   Up 3 seconds   0.0.0.0:8454->8454/tcp, :::8454->8454/tcp, 8455/tcp   naughty_greider

3. You can then access the daemon's output thanks to the [docker logs command]( https://docs.docker.com/reference/commandline/cli/#logs)

        docker logs -f bgld

4. Install optional init scripts for upstart and systemd are in the `init` directory.
