Building Container Images

To build a container image of Corda you can use the Jib gradle tasks. See the documentation of the Jib gradle plugin for details.

Building the image

To build an image locally you can use the following command. Note that you do not require Docker.

./gradlew node:jib --image <registry>/<image>:<tag>

If you prefer building to a Docker deamon you can use

./gradlew node:jibDockerBuild --image <registry>/<image>:<tag>

Running the image

The Corda application expects its config file in /config/node.conf, make sure you mount the config file to that location. You might also want to mount /credentials and /persistence.mv.db (if you're using H2) in order to preserve the credentials and node data between container restarts.

The JVM options are currently hardcoded in node/build.gradle in the jib.container section.

Below is an example directory layout and command to run your image with Docker. Make sure to run touch persistence.mv.db befor starting the container, otherwise a new directory will be created by Docker.

.
├── additional-node-infos
├── certificates
├── config
│   └── node.conf
├── network-parameters
└── persistence.mv.db

docker run --rm -it -v ${PWD}/certificates:/certificates \
                    -v ${PWD}/config:/config \
                    -v ${PWD}/network-parameters:/network-parameters \
                    -v ${PWD}/persistence.mv.db:/persistence.mv.db \
                    -v ${PWD}/additional-node-infos:/additional-node-infos \
                    <registry>/<image>:<tag>
