How to install IOTA node with docker

INTRODUCTION

IOTA has a official full node project named iri. It is a java open-source project (github)

Today there are 2 versions of iri:

  • 1.5.x STABLE with full snapshot feature
  • 1.6.x RELEASE CANDIDATE with local snapshot feature

Into this tutorial we will install STABLE version

REQUIREMENTS

There are two common solutions to install IOTA node:

I prefer docker installation. So you must have docker into your 64-bit system.

Docker official installation guide links:

After that you must install docker compose tool

DOCKER-COMPOSE

Docker compose is a yaml file with docker container declarations, we must use follow file named docker-compose.yml:

version: "2"

services:
  iri:
    image: iotaledger/iri:latest
    restart: unless-stopped
    volumes:
      - ./data/iri/iri.ini:/iri/conf/iri.ini:ro
      - ./data/iri/ixi:/iri/ixi:rw
      - ./data/iri/db:/iri/data:rw
      - /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro
    environment:
      - JAVA_MAX_MEMORY=4096m
      - JAVA_MIN_MEMORY=256m
      - DOCKER_IRI_MONITORING_API_PORT_ENABLE=1
      - DOCKER_IRI_REMOTE_LIMIT_API="addNeighbors, removeNeighbors"      
    ports:
      - "14600:14600/udp"
      - "15600:15600/tcp"
    command: ["-c", "/iri/conf/iri.ini"]       
  iota-pm:
    image: michaelermer/iota-peer-manager
    restart: unless-stopped
    ports:
      - "8888:8888"
    environment:
       - IRI=http://iri:14265
  proxy:
    image: nginx
    volumes:
      - ./data/nginx/ssl/fullchain.pem:/etc/nginx/ssl/fullchain.pem:ro
      - ./data/nginx/ssl/privkey.pem:/etc/nginx/ssl/privkey.pem:ro
      - ./data/nginx/default.conf:/etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf:ro
    command: [nginx-debug, '-g', 'daemon off;']
    ports:
      - "80:80"
      - "443:443"

FOLDER DATABASE & FILE

Before to run, we must create folder, download tangle database and create iri and proxy configuration files.

Create the folder

mkdir ~/data
mkdir ~/data/iri
mkdir ~/data/ixi
mkdir ~/data/db
mkdir ~/data/nginx
mkdir ~/data/nginx/ssl

Download database

IOTA node is a peer to peer node, to increase init time i suggest you to download database and extract it into folder ~/data/db
