description: Run Pantheon using the official docker image

Running Pantheon from Docker Image

A Docker image is provided to run a Pantheon node in a Docker container.

Use this Docker image to run a single Pantheon node without installing Pantheon.

Prerequisites

  • Docker

  • MacOS or Linux

    !!! important The Docker image does not run on Windows.

Quickstart

To run a Pantheon node in a container connected to the Ethereum mainnet:

docker run pegasyseng/pantheon:latest

docker run pegasyseng/pantheon:{{ versions.pantheon_stable }}

!!! note latest runs the latest cached version. To pull the latest version, use docker pull pegasyseng/pantheon:latest.

Command Line Options

!!!note You cannot use the following Pantheon command line options when running Pantheon from the Docker image:

* [`--data-path`](../Reference/Pantheon-CLI-Syntax.md#data-path), see [Data Directory](#data-directory)
* [`--config-file`](../Reference/Pantheon-CLI-Syntax.md#config), see [Custom Configuration File](#custom-configuration-file)
* [`--genesis-file`](../Reference/Pantheon-CLI-Syntax.md#genesis-file), see [Custom Genesis File](#custom-genesis-file).
* [`--permissions-accounts-config-file`](../Reference/Pantheon-CLI-Syntax.md#permissions-accounts-config-file)
and [`--permissions-nodes-config-file`](../Reference/Pantheon-CLI-Syntax.md#permissions-nodes-config-file), 
see [Permissions Configuration File](#permissions-configuration-file). 
* [`--privacy-public-key-file`](../Reference/Pantheon-CLI-Syntax.md#privacy-public-key-file), see [Privacy Public Key File](#privacy-public-key-file).
* [`--rpc-http-authentication-credentials-file`](../Reference/Pantheon-CLI-Syntax.md#rpc-http-authentication-credentials-file) and
  [`--rpc-ws-authentication-credentials-file`](../Reference/Pantheon-CLI-Syntax.md#rpc-ws-authentication-credentials-file), see [Credentials Files](#credentials-files).
* [`--node-private-key-file`](../Reference/Pantheon-CLI-Syntax.md#node-private-key-file). When running from the Docker image, 
Pantheon always uses the key file in the [data directory](#data-directory). 
* Host and port options, see [Exposing Ports](#exposing-ports). Host and port options are: 
    - [`--rpc-http-host`](../Reference/Pantheon-CLI-Syntax.md#rpc-http-host) and [`--rpc-http-port`](../Reference/Pantheon-CLI-Syntax.md#rpc-http-port)
    - [`--metrics-host`](../Reference/Pantheon-CLI-Syntax.md#metrics-host) and [`--metrics-port`](../Reference/Pantheon-CLI-Syntax.md#metrics-port)
    - [`--metrics-push-host`](../Reference/Pantheon-CLI-Syntax.md#metrics-push-host) and [`--metrics-push-port`](../Reference/Pantheon-CLI-Syntax.md#metrics-push-port)
    - [`--p2p-host`](../Reference/Pantheon-CLI-Syntax.md#p2p-host) and [`--p2p-port`](../Reference/Pantheon-CLI-Syntax.md#p2p-port)
    - [`--rpc-ws-host`](../Reference/Pantheon-CLI-Syntax.md#rpc-ws-host) and [`--rpc-ws-port`](../Reference/Pantheon-CLI-Syntax.md#rpc-ws-port)

All other [Pantheon command line options](/Reference/Pantheon-CLI-Syntax) work in the same way as when Pantheon is installed locally.

Starting Pantheon

Run a Node for Testing

To run a node that mines blocks at a rate suitable for testing purposes with WebSockets enabled:

docker run -p 8546:8546 --mount type=bind,source=/<myvolume/pantheon/testnode>,target=/var/lib/pantheon pegasyseng/pantheon:latest --miner-enabled --miner-coinbase fe3b557e8fb62b89f4916b721be55ceb828dbd73 --rpc-http-cors-origins="all" --rpc-ws-enabled --network=dev

Run a Node on Rinkeby Testnet

To run a node on Rinkeby:

docker run -p 30303:30303 --mount type=bind,source=/<myvolume/pantheon/rinkeby>,target=/var/lib/pantheon pegasyseng/pantheon:latest --network=rinkeby

Run a Node on Ethereum Mainnet

To run a node on the Ethereum mainnet:

docker run -p 30303:30303 --mount type=bind,source=/<myvolume/pantheon>,target=/var/lib/pantheon pegasyseng/pantheon:latest

To run a node on mainnet with the HTTP JSON-RPC service enabled:

docker run -p 8545:8545 -p 30303:30303 --mount type=bind,source=/<myvolume/pantheon>,target=/var/lib/pantheon pegasyseng/pantheon:latest --rpc-http-enabled

Stopping Pantheon and Cleaning up Resources

When you're done running nodes, you can shut down the node container without deleting resources. Alternatively, you can delete the container (after stopping it) and its associated volume. Run docker container ls and docker volume ls to obtain the container and volume names. Then run the following commands:

To stop a container:

docker stop <container-name>

To delete a container:

docker rm <container-name>

To delete a container volume (optional):

docker volume rm <volume-name>

Data Directory

Specify a Docker volume for the data directory. This is the equivalent of specifying the --data-path option.

To run Pantheon specifying a volume for the data directory:

docker run --mount type=bind,source=/<pantheondata-path>,target=/var/lib/pantheon pegasyseng/pantheon:latest

Where <pantheondata-path> is the volume to which the data is saved.

Custom Configuration File

Specify a custom configuration file to provide a file containing key/value pairs for command line options. This is the equivalent of specifying the --config-file option.

To run Pantheon specifying a custom configuration file:

docker run --mount type=bind,source=/<path/myconf.toml>,target=/etc/pantheon/pantheon.conf pegasyseng/pantheon:latest

Where myconf.toml is your custom configuration file and path is the absolute path to the file. !!!example bash docker run --mount type=bind,source=/Users/username/pantheon/myconf.toml,target=/etc/pantheon/pantheon.conf pegasyseng/pantheon:latest

Custom Genesis File

Specify a custom genesis file to configure the blockchain. This is equivalent to specifying the --genesis-file option.

To run Pantheon specifying a custom genesis file:

docker run --mount type=bind,source=</path/mygenesis.json>,target=/etc/pantheon/genesis.json pegasyseng/pantheon:latest

Where mygenesis.json is your custom configuration file and path is the absolute path to the file.

!!!example bash docker run --mount type=bind,source=/Users/username/pantheon/mygenesis.json,target=/etc/pantheon/genesis.json pegasyseng/pantheon:latest

Permissions Configuration File

Specify a permissions configuration file. This is equivalent to specifying the --permissions-accounts-config-file or the --permissions-nodes-config-file option.

!!! note When using Docker, the accounts and nodes permissions must be contained in the same permissions file.

To run Pantheon specifying a permissions configuration file:

docker run --mount type=bind,source=</path/mypermissions.toml>,target=/etc/pantheon/permissions_config.toml pegasyseng/pantheon:latest

Where mypermissions.toml is your custom configuration file and path is the absolute path to the file.

!!!example bash docker run --mount type=bind,source=/Users/username/pantheon/mypermissions.toml,target=/etc/pantheon/permissions_config.toml pegasyseng/pantheon:latest

Privacy Public Key File

Specify a file containing the public key for the enclave. This is equivalent to specifying the --privacy-public-key-file option.

To run Pantheon specifying a privacy public key file:

docker run --mount type=bind,source=</path/myprivacypublickeyfile>,target=/etc/pantheon/privacy_public_key pegasyseng/pantheon:latest

Where myprivacypublickeyfile is the file containing the public key and path is the absolute path to the file.

!!!example bash docker run --mount type=bind,source=/Users/username/pantheon/keyfile,target=/etc/pantheon/privacy_public_key pegasyseng/pantheon:latest

Credentials Files

Specify a credentials file for JSON-RPC API authentication.

To run Pantheon specifying a credentials file for HTTP JSON-RPC:

docker run --mount type=bind,source=</path/myauthconfig.toml>,target=/etc/pantheon/rpc_http_auth_config.toml pegasyseng/pantheon:latest

To run Pantheon specifying a credentials file for WebSockets JSON-RPC:

docker run --mount type=bind,source=</path/myauthconfig.toml>,target=/etc/pantheon/rpc_ws_auth_config.toml pegasyseng/pantheon:latest

Where myauthconfig.toml is the credentials file and path is the absolute path to the file.

!!! example bash tab="HTTP" docker run --mount type=bind,source=/Users/username/pantheon/myauthconfig.toml,target=/etc/pantheon/rpc_http_auth_config.toml pegasyseng/pantheon:latest 

```bash tab="WS"
docker run --mount type=bind,source=/Users/username/pantheon/myauthconfig.toml,target=/etc/pantheon/rpc_ws_auth_config.toml pegasyseng/pantheon:latest
```

Exposing Ports

Expose ports for P2P peer discovery, GraphQL, metrics, and HTTP and WebSockets JSON-RPC. This is required to use the defaults ports or specify different ports (the equivalent of specifying the --rpc-http-port, --p2p-port, --rpc-ws-port, --metrics-port, --graphql-http-port, and --metrics-push-port options).

To run Pantheon exposing local ports for access:

docker run -p <localportJSON-RPC>:8545 -p <localportWS>:8546 -p <localportP2P>:30303 pegasyseng/pantheon:latest --rpc-http-enabled --rpc-ws-enabled

!!!example To enable RPC calls to http://127.0.0.1:8545 and P2P discovery on http://127.0.0.1:13001: bash docker run -p 8545:8545 -p 13001:30303 pegasyseng/pantheon:latest --rpc-http-enabled
