blockstream/elementsd repository overview

⁠Elements image using pre-built binaries

The Dockerfile⁠ uses and verifies the binaries downloaded from our GitHub releases⁠.

⁠How to run

You can simply test the image by starting elementsd with its default settings, which will start the container in Liquid mode⁠. The command exposes elementsd's default RPC and P2P ports to your machine and to other containers (saves chain data in a Docker volume called data):

docker run -d  --name elements -p 7041:7041 -p 7042:7042 -v data:/root/.elements blockstream/elementsd:latest elementsd -printtoconsole -prune=1000

If you want to provide your own elements.conf, you can provide this additional flag, which elementsd will recognize automatically.

-v $(pwd)/elements.conf:/root/.elements/elements.conf

You can run: docker run --rm blockstream/elementsd:latest elementsd -help to get all of elementsd's options.
