Configuration

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

To ensure that your chia config settings and sycned blockchain persist, you can pass in a directory for /data

-v /path/to/data:/data

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 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"

To start the farmr.net bot in farmer mode (Logs stored in /farmr/log.txt)

-e farmr="farmer"

To start the farmr.net bot in harvester mode (Logs stored in /farmr/log.txt)

-e farmr="harvester"

To start the plotman tool in daemon mode (Logs stored in /data/plotman/daemon.log)

-e plotman="true"

NOTE: You should make sure plotman is configured properly first

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

docker run -d --expose=58444 --expose=8555 -e testnet=true --name <container-name> ixsystems/chia-docker:latest
