Official Chia Docker Container

Basic Startup

docker run --name <container-name> -d ghcr.io/chia-network/chia:latest
(optional -v /path/to/plots:/plots)

set the timezone for the container (optional, defaults to UTC)

Timezones can be configured using the TZ env variable. A list of supported time zones can be found here

-e TZ="America/Chicago"

Configuration

You can modify the behavior of your Chia container by setting specific environment variables.

To use your own keys pass as arguments on startup (post 1.0.2 pre 1.0.2 must manually pass as shown below)

-v /path/to/key/file:/path/in/container -e keys="/path/in/container"

or pass keys into the running container

docker exec -it <container-name> venv/bin/chia keys add

alternatively you can pass in your local keychain, if you have previously deployed chia with these keys on the host machine

-v ~/.local/share/python_keyring/:/root/.local/share/python_keyring/

To start a farmer only node pass

-e farmer="true"

To change log level

-e log_level="ERROR|WARNING|INFO|DEBUG|VERBOSE"

To start a harvester only node pass

-e harvester="true" -e farmer_address="addres.of.farmer" -e farmer_port="portnumber" -v /path/to/ssl/ca:/path/in/container -e ca="/path/in/container" -e keys="copy"

The plots_dir environment variable can be used to specify the directory containing the plots, it supports PATH-style colon-separated directories.

or run commands externally with venv (this works for most chia XYZ commands)

docker exec -it chia venv/bin/chia plots add -d /plots

status from outside the container

docker exec -it chia venv/bin/chia show -s -c

Connect to testnet?

docker run -d --expose=58444 --expose=8555 -e testnet=true --name <container-name> ghcr.io/chia-network/chia:latest

Need a wallet?

docker exec -it chia-farmer1 venv/bin/chia wallet show (follow the prompts)
