Running with Docker¶

Instructions for launching a full Ocean node with Docker.

Requirements¶

Docker engine release: 18.02.0 or latest

docker-compose: 1.20.0 or latest

Download docker-compose.yml¶

From:: commerceblock/ocean/contrib/docker/docker-compose.yml

Or

curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/commerceblock/ocean/master/contrib/docker/docker-compose.yml

Download and read terms and conditions¶

curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/commerceblock/ocean/master/doc/terms-and-conditions/ocean_test/latest.txt

Download image and start¶

docker-compose -p ocean up -d

Check status¶

docker-compose -p ocean ps

Output¶

    Name                  Command               State                         Ports
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ocean_node_1   /docker-entrypoint.sh elem ...   Up      0.0.0.0:32768->18332/tcp, 0.0.0.0:32769->7042/tcp

Check logs and see if node is syncing¶

docker-compose -p ocean logs --follow

Hit ctrl+c to stop following

Check if connected to CommerceBlock testnet¶

docker-compose -p ocean exec node ocean-cli -rpcport=18332 -rpcuser=ocean -rpcpassword=oceanpass getpeerinfo

Should see: "testnet.commerceblock.com:7043"

Check block count¶

docker-compose -p ocean exec node ocean-cli -rpcport=18332 -rpcuser=ocean -rpcpassword=oceanpass getblockcount

Once synced, block count should be the same as in: https://cbtexplorer.com

Data persistence¶

mkdir ~/ocean_full_node
mkdir -p ~/ocean_full_node/terms-and-conditions/ocean_test
cp latest.txt ~/ocean_full_node/terms-and-conditions/ocean_test/

edit: docker-compose.yml, adding:

 image: commerceblock/ocean:latest
 volumes:
   - /home/your_username/ocean_full_node:/home/bitcoin/.bitcoin

Using docker secrets¶

Add a secrets block to contrib/docker/docker-compose.yml

secrets:
  ocean_user:
    file: ocean_user
  ocean_pass:
    file: ocean_pass

Modify the service block to use the newly defined secrets:

services:
  node:
    secrets:
      - ocean_user
      - ocean_pass

Remove the rpc authentication arguments from the command:

-rpcuser=${BITCOIN_RPC_USER:-ocean}
-rpcpassword=${BITCOIN_RPC_PASSWORD:-oceanpass}

Create and populate ocean_user and ocean_pass files with credentials in the same directory.

Dig deeper¶

As root

docker-compose -p ocean exec node bash`

As bitcoin

docker-compose -p ocean exec -u bitcoin node bash

Then: ocean-cli / ocean-tx available from within inside of container.

Note: if running as root, need to specify: -datadir=/home/bitcoin/.bitcoin

Execute shell commands¶

docker-compose -p ocean exec node ip a

Scale containers¶

Up

docker-compose -p ocean scale node=2

Down

docker-compose -p ocean scale node=1

Stop¶

docker-compose -p ocean stop

Remove stack¶

docker-compose -p ocean rm -f
