FAIRNode

This repository contains the Docker setup for running a FairCoin node. FairCoin is a cryptocurrency that focuses on fairness and sustainability.

Prerequisites

• Docker
• Docker Compose (optional, for managing multi-container Docker applications)

Getting Started

Clone the Repository

git clone https://github.com/FairCoinOfficial/FAIRNode.git
cd FAIRNode

Build the Docker Image

docker build -t faircoin-node .

Create Configuration File

Create a configuration file for the FairCoin node with the necessary RPC credentials and settings:

mkdir -p ~/.faircoin
echo "rpcuser=faircoinrpc" > ~/.faircoin/faircoin.conf
echo "rpcpassword=your_secure_password" >> ~/.faircoin/faircoin.conf
echo "server=1" >> ~/.faircoin/faircoin.conf

Replace your_secure_password with a strong, unique password.

Run the Docker Container

docker run -d -p 40404:40404 -v ~/.faircoin:/root/.faircoin --name faircoin-node faircoin-node

This command will run the FairCoin node in a Docker container with the necessary ports exposed and configuration mounted.

Verify Node is Running

You can verify that the node is running by checking the container logs:

docker logs -f faircoin-node

Configuration

The configuration file faircoin.conf should be located in the ~/.faircoin directory. You can customize this file with additional settings as needed. The default configuration includes:

rpcuser=faircoinrpc
rpcpassword=your_secure_password
server=1

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues, please check the logs of the Docker container:

docker logs faircoin-node
