Build and Test Quorum and Constellation with Docker

This tests the setup to have Quorum (based on go-ethereum), without a private transaction manager, to be built in docker and run in separate docker instances.

Pre-requisite

Repositories

This repository depends on the following repositories to be cloned and reside next to it:

git clone -b v23.4.0 git@github.com:kaleido-io/quorum.git

Build the docker images by launching from the project root of quorum-tools:

make docker

It should produce the following docker images:

Image Description Needed for runtime?
jpmorganchase/quorum geth node YES
jpmorganchase/quorum-builder build environment NO

Launch the sample network

run the command below from the examples directory

docker-compose up

Advanced Topics

Quorum configuration directory structure

The configuration files for the Quorum nodes in Quorum are saved under the ethereum directory:

/qdata/
├── ethereum/
│   ├── geth/
│   ├── keystore/
│   │   └── UTC--2017-10-21T12-49-26.422099203Z--aad5479aff498c9258b21b59dd7546262aa2cfc7
│   ├── nodekey
│   ├── passwords.txt
│   ├── genesis.json
│   ├── static-nodes.json
│   └── permissioned-nodes.json
└── logs/

On the Docker host, a qdata_N/ directory for each node is created with the structure above. When the network is started, this will be mapped by the docker-compose.yml file to each container's internal /qdata/ directory.
