Repo for spinning up your own lightning node

Primary LanguageDockerfile

lightning-node

Run your own Lightning Network (LN) node with two slim-sized containers. Based on work by @dougvk, but modified to use:

  • Slim-sized containers (Debian Stretch slim) with least amount of layers
  • Custom Dockerfile for lightningd to separate build and runtime requirements

With these you can either:

  1. Follow @dougvk's blog post and setup your LN node manually
  2. Use my Ansible configuration to setup your Lightning Network node(s) by using automation

If you don't know what the Lightning Network is I suggest you read this FAQ.
