docker-iota-testnet

Dockerized IOTA test-net.

First steps

Before all, first clone this repository:

$ git clone https://github.com/daemonio/docker-iota-testnet
$ cd docker-iota-testnet

Build & Docker Run

$ docker build -t="docker-iota-testnet" .
$ docker run --rm -d -p 14265:14265 docker-iota-testnet

The build process downloads iri-1.4.2.1.jar from this repository. This was the version that worked the most for me. You can download the same version in the main repo.

Wait untill server goes up. You can see if the server is up with the following command:

$ curl -H "X-IOTA-API-Version: 1.4.1.6" -X POST -d '{"command":"getNodeInfo"}' http://localhost:14265

If you see "curl: (56) Recv failure: Connection reset by peer" it's because the server isn't up yet. Give it some time.

If you see some JSON info, congratulations, the server is working:

Wallet Installation

Get your wallet and install it:

$ wget https://github.com/iotaledger/wallet/releases/download/v2.5.7/iota_2.5.7_amd64.deb
$ sudo dpkg -i iota_2.5.7_amd64.deb

If you get any error, you can try:

$ sudo apt -f install

Using the wallet

First get a SEED from the Snapshot.log file:

$ grep Seed Snapshot.log | head
Seed: WSHQRZICNFQUQPAPYWKFPWKTWWBPQNMTDNBYSGFZURGBWONDQEBPLNUXJVQTPYNFJKKTFATIVJTBSAWUX

Let's use this SEED as an example:

WSHQRZICNFQUQPAPYWKFPWKTWWBPQNMTDNBYSGFZURGBWONDQEBPLNUXJVQTPYNFJKKTFATIVJTBSAWUX

Open the wallet:

$ iota

Configure the node address in Tools->Edit Node Configuration->Custom. Type: http://your-node-server:14265. To log into your wallet just type the chosen SEED.

You're going to see Balance = 0 after logging in. Go to Receive and click in Attach To Tangle. Wait, this can take some time. When you see "Address Attached" you can see Balance again, it will be 1Mi.
