Other Docker containers in this repo
The Indexer container requires a flowee/hub container to connect to in order to get populated and updated as new data comes in.
As detailed in the generic readme, it is known to work that you port-forward the API on services like the Hub and Indexer for others to connect to it by nothing but the hosts network address. Either a DNS entry, or a direct IP address. Use this in the FLOWEE_HUB env var below.
Some examples;
Simple standard setup, only TXID indexer
docker volume create flowee_indexer
docker run -e FLOWEE_HUB=192.168.0.2 -d -v flowee_indexer:/data -p 1234:1234 flowee/indexer
Specify the indexers to run:
Notice that adding an indexer while keeping the volume the same will just make that one indexer 'catch-up' first.
docker volume create flowee_indexer # if not already done before
docker run -e FLOWEE_HUB=192.168.0.2 \
-e FLOWEE_INDEXERS="txid, spentDB"
-d -v flowee_indexer:/data -p 1234:1234 flowee/indexer
Running the address indexer against Postgres:
# first start and run postgres
docker volume create flowee_addressDB
docker run -v flowee_addressDB:/var/lib/postgresql/data \
-e POSTGRES_USER=flowee \
-e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=SECRET \
-d postgres
# Ask docker which IP it assigned to the postgres container;
# The previous command printed a long ID.
docker inspect ID | grep IPAddress
# Replace the following 172.17.0.6 with the response IP
docker volume create flowee_indexer # if not already done before
docker run -e FLOWEE_HUB=192.168.0.2 \
-e FLOWEE_INDEXERS="txid, spentDB, addressDB"
-e FLOWEE_DB="driver=postgres,hostname=172.17.0.6,db=flowee,username=flowee,password=SECRET"
-d -v flowee_indexer:/data -p 1234:1234 flowee/indexer
Available options (env-vars)
-
FLOWEE_INDEXERS list of indexers to enable. For instance: txid, address, spent. Default is just txid
-
FLOWEE_DB comma separated list of configs to connect to the SQL Database service. We support driver, hostname, db, username and password. example:
driver=postgres,hostname=172.17.0.10,db=flowee,username=flowee_indexer,password=SECRET -
FLOWEE_HUB The hostname or IP and optionally port to connect to the Hub (see hub container)
-
FLOWEE_LOGLEVEL allows you to change the log-level. Recognized options are info, quiet or silent
