This is the Git repo of the CBA Innovation Lab's Ethermint docker image.
When the container starts it will first check if Ethermint has been initialised with an Ethereum genesis file. If it has not, it will first run ethermint init using the genesis file specified by either of the following environment variables.
ETH_GENESIS_PATH: The path to a genesis file that's been mounted in to the container
ETH_GENESIS_CONTENT: the JSON encoded contents of the genesis that you would like to use
TENDERMINT_ADDR: The address of the Tendermint node to use. If not supplied ethermint will start with --with-tendermint
Use the following to run an Ethermint node with some options specified
export ETH_GENESIS_CONTENT="{\"config\":{\"chainId\":15,\"homesteadBlock\":0,\"eip155Block\":0,\"eip158Block\":0},\"nonce\":\"0xdeadbeefdeadbeef\",\"timestamp\":\"0x00\",\"parentHash\":\"0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000\",\"mixhash\":\"0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000\",\"difficulty\":\"0x40\",\"gasLimit\":\"0x800000000\",\"alloc\":{\"0x7df9a875a174b3bc565e6424a0050ebc1b2d1d82\":{\"balance\":\"10000000000000000000000000000000000\"}}}"
