This is the repository for the stiiifff/multichain-* docker images, derived from the kunstmaan/*-multichain docker images.
- stiiifff/multichain-base: A base Ubuntu with the latest Multichain deamon installed
- stiiifff/multichain-master: Based on the "base" image running a master node, creates a blockchain and runs it. Important: only for development since any node can connect, anyone can administer and the RPC interface is open to all.
- stiiifff/multichain-node: Based on the same "base" image and connects to the master node
- stiiifff/multichain-explorer: A node with the Multichain explorer installed
Use this docker-compose.yml and run:
sudo docker-compose up
Add a volume
:/root/.multichain
To configure your chain, we use environment variables.
