Docker

Running the Daemon

docker run -dit --name monero \
  --user="$(id -u):$(id -g)" \
  --volume="$HOME/.bitmonero:/home/monero/.bitmonero" \
  --publish='18080:18080' \
  --publish='18081:18081' \
  cornfeedhobo/monero

Checking the daemon status

docker logs monero

curl -X POST http://localhost:18081/json_rpc \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":"test","method":"get_info"}' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -H 'Accept:application/json'

Using the wallet

Docker exec

To run in the same container as the running daemon:

docker exec -it monero monero-wallet-cli

Isolated container

To run in a different container than the running daemon:

docker run --rm -it --link monero \
  --user="$(id -u):$(id -g)" \
  --volume="$HOME/.bitmonero:/home/monero/.bitmonero" \
  cornfeedhobo/monero \
    monero-wallet-cli \
      --daemon-address="$MONERO_PORT_18081_TCP_ADDR:$MONERO_PORT_18081_TCP_PORT"

Note: these are special environment variables filled in by the docker daemon and are specific to these examples.
