tharsishq/blockx:latest
. Now you can run blockxd
in the container.docker run -it -p 26657:26657 -p 26656:26656 -v ~/.blockxd/:/root/.blockxd tharsishq/blockx:latest blockxd version
# To initialize
# docker run -it -p 26657:26657 -p 26656:26656 -v ~/.blockxd/:/root/.blockxd tharsishq/blockx:latest blockxd init test-chain --chain-id test_9000-2
# To run
# docker run -it -p 26657:26657 -p 26656:26656 -v ~/.blockxd/:/root/.blockxd tharsishq/blockx:latest blockxd start
