urbit-alpine-docker

This repository is deprecated. See asssaf/urbit-docker instead.

Minimal alpine linux based image for running Urbit

Warning: Make sure you mount a volume for the /urbit/$SHIP directory in the container, otherwise you may lose the urbit's key and state unrecoverably!. The provided create/run scripts do that for you, but be careful if running a custom docker command.

This container builds an APK and installs it. See the APK section for details on building the apk separately.

Scripts

The scripts/ directory contains scripts for running and creating ships (by mapping the current directory as a volume inside the container).

$ scripts/createcomet.sh mycomet
...

$ scripts/run myship
...

Run as daemon

$ scripts/run-daemon myship
<container-id>

Attach to the running daemon using the <container-id> from the run-daemon output:

$ docker exec -ti <container-id> tmux attach

Detach from the session using the tmux binding C-b d

APK

If you want to build the apk used by the container by yourself, you can find in the apkbuild/ directory the APKBUILD script and a Makefile to build the apk using docker.

$ cd apkbuild
$ make
...
$ ls packages/home/x86_64/
APKINDEX.tar.gz  urbit-0.4.5-r0.apk
