Braindump about Docker

Open JoshOrndorff opened this issue 5 years ago • 2 comments

This draft PR contains the results of me messing around with docker for an hour. I'm not experienced with docker, but I see it as a valuable tool to allow anyone (eg workshop participants) to spin up a node quickly without installing the entire rust toolchain and building the node themselves.

cc @kevcoxe you're good at docker right? Want to get into blockchain?

I guess running a node that you didn't build yourself has limited value in this particular repo because it is a workshop about modifying the code. Still this technique may be useful more generally.

@JoshOrndorff I will have to check this out! I am excited that it is containerized because now like you said i dont need to install all the rust stuff.
