Running Hop node as Docker container

Running container
Mount ~/.hop-node from host machine to /root in container in order to be able to use the config file and/or keystore in host machine:
1
docker run -v ~/.hop-node:/root hopprotocol/hop-node --config /root/config.json
Copied!
If you're using a keystore and need to enter the passphrase, use the flags -it to run docker in iterative mode.
1
docker run -it -v ~/.hop-node:/root hopprotocol/hop-node --config /root/config.json
Copied!
If using environment variables from a .env file, use the --env-file flag:
1
docker run --env-file docker.env -v ~/.hop-node:/root hopprotocol/hop-node --config /root/config.json
Copied!
Running as daemon
Use the --detach docker flag to run container as daemon. 
1
docker run --detach -v ~/.hop-node:/root hopprotocol/hop-node --config /root/config.json
Copied!
Note: If you're keystore requires a passphrase and you're not using a password file, you'll need to pass the passpharse via the KEYSTORE_PASS environment variable.
1
export KEYSTORE_PASS=mysecretpassword
2
docker run --detach -e KEYSTORE_PASS=$KEYSTORE_PASS -v ~/.hop-node:/root hopprotocol/hop-node --config /root/config.json
Copied!
