Docker container for VEIL

Docker image to run a veild node in a container for easy deployment & development.

Requirements

• Machine capible of running a ubuntu 14.04 or newer image.
• At least 10 GB to store the chain (AT LEAST)
• At least 1 GB RAM + 2 GB swap file

Really Fast Quick Start

One liner for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS machines with JSON-RPC enabled on localhost and adds upstart init script:

Quick Start

1. Create a veild-data volume to persist the veild blockchain data, should exit immediately. The veild-data container will store the blockchain when the node container is recreated (software upgrade, reboot, etc):

    sudo docker volume create --name=veild-data
    sudo docker run -v veild-data:/veil --name=veild-node -d \
        -p 58810:58810 \
        -p 127.0.0.1:58810:58810 \
        wallercrypto/docker-veild
   

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

    $ docker ps
    CONTAINER ID        IMAGE                         COMMAND             CREATED             STATUS              PORTS                                              NAMES
    d0e1076b2dca        wallercrypto/docker-veild     "veil_oneshot"       2 seconds ago       Up 1 seconds        127.0.0.1:58810->58810/tcp, 0.0.0.0:58810->58810/tcp   veild-node
   

3. You can then access the daemon's output thanks to the docker logs command

    docker logs -f veild-node
   

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