bahaika/owncoin repository overview

⁠OwnCoin

⁠What is it ?

OwnCoin is a bundle of a bitcoin server and a web application connecting to that server. The goal is to provide an easy and secure way to host your own bitcoin wallet, with multiple account support etc... To achieve such a goal we're using Docker to bundle all the things.

⁠How does this works inside ?

Inside the container the entrypoint will start the following components :

• The OwnCoin application : A ruby on rails application launched by the Puma server
• Nginx to serve the static files and proxy_pass calls to the Puma server
• The bitcoin server to handle the wallet

⁠Can you show me what it looks like ?

I will soon upload some screenshots.

⁠Okay, I want to have it !

Great ! Glad to hear, here is how to deploy it, simply run this command on a server with docker installed :

$ docker run --name=owncoin \
    -p 8333:8333 -p 10080:80 \
    -v /mnt/volumes/owncoin:/data \
    -e BC_USERNAME=myusername \
    -e BC_PASSWORD=mypassword \
    -e SECRET_KEY_BASE=mysecret \
