Running a Docker Bananode

Latest Docker Banano Node version: v20

Install docker

The easiest way to run a node is by using our docker images. First install docker-ce.

Running the bananode image.

Once docker is installed for your platform (check via docker run hello-world), to run a bananode, simply run:

docker run --restart=unless-stopped -d \
  -p 7071:7071 \
  -p [::1]:7072:7072 \
  -p [::1]:7074:7074 \
  -v ~:/root \
  bananocoin/banano

7071 -> TCP port
7072 -> RPC port
7074 -> Websocket port

You can then check your node as would normally, e.g. using curl.

Stopping the bananode

Run docker ps to list running containers. Use the CONTAINER_ID to shut down the bananode, e.g.

sudo docker stop 19d845535dc1

Example

$ docker run --restart=unless-stopped -d -p 7071:7071 -p [::1]:7072:7072 -p [::1]:7074:7074 -v ~:/root bananocoin/banano
