Build
$ docker build -t btcz/bitcoinz .
Create a data directory on your local drive and create a bitcoinz.conf config file
$ mkdir -p /ops/volumes/bitcoinz/data
$ touch /ops/volumes/bitcoinz/data/bitcoinz.conf
$ chown -R 999:999 /ops/volumes/bitcoinz/data
Create bitcoinz.conf config file and run the application
$ docker run -d --name bitcoinz-node \
-v bitcoinz.conf:/bitcoinz/data/bitcoinz.conf \
-p 1989:1989 -p 127.0.0.1:1979:1979 \

docker exec -it bitcoinz-node cli help
If you'd like to have a production btc/bitcoinz image with a pre-baked configuration file, use of a Dockerfile is recommended:
FROM btcz/bitcoinz
COPY bitcoinz.conf /bitcoinz/data/bitcoinz.conf
Then, build with docker build -t my-bitcoinz . and run.
Windows build is maintained in bitcoinz-win project.
BitcoinZ is experimental and a work-in-progress. Use at your own risk.
