# VLS Containers
|
|
|
|
## Volume Creation
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
docker volume create bitcoin_data
|
|
docker volume create lightning_data
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Docker Compose Run
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
docker compose up --build
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Using Bitcoin Chains
|
|
|
|
We have three possible overrides over the default `testnet` configuration in `docker-compose.yml`:
|
|
- `docker-compose.testnet.yml`
|
|
- `docker-compose.regtest.yml`
|
|
- `docker-compose.mainnet.yml`
|
|
|
|
To use override we have to pass it down both the config using `-f` flag:
|
|
```
|
|
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml -f <override_file> up --build
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
__Note__: Even while using `testnet` running using the override is recommended as that will expose the `P2P` port for `bitcoind` and `P2P` port for `lightningd` on the host.
|
|
|
|
## Additional Regtest Commands
|
|
|
|
We have to run these commands after bitcoind is up and running.
|
|
|
|
Create Wallet:
|
|
```
|
|
docker container exec -it bitcoind bitcoin-cli createwallet default
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Generate Address for node:
|
|
```
|
|
docker container exec -it bitcoind bitcoin-cli getnewaddress
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Generate Blocks
|
|
```
|
|
docker container exec -it bitcoind bitcoin-cli generatetoaddress 50 $NODE_ADDRESS
|
|
|
|
```
