Official Corda Docker Image

The official Corda Docker image is found at the Corda Docker hub. The latest version is corda/community:4.12-zulu-openjdk.

Prerequisites

• Install and enable Docker and docker-compose. Docker CE (Community Edition) is sufficient. Docker, Inc. publish installation instructions for all major operating systems:
  • Docker CE
  • Docker Compose.
• Ensure you have a valid node.conf file and set of certificates.

Getting started

Use docker run to create a writeable container layer over the Docker image, and then start it. The container process that runs is isolated, it has its own file system, its own networking, and its own isolated process tree, separate from the host.

• Docker run is explained in full detail in the documentation published by Docker, Inc.
• For information on using docker for development purposes, visit the creating a node page.
• If you have already set up your node and want to learn how to use your code using Docker, go to the running a node locally page.
• If you want to learn more about Docker deployments and how to deploy to a compatibility zone, go to the Docker deployments page.
