Runs Blockscout locally in Docker containers with docker-compose.

• Docker v20.10+
• Docker-compose 2.x.x+
• Running Ethereum JSON RPC client

docker-compose up --build

This command uses by-default docker-compose.yml, which builds the explorer into the Docker image and runs 6 Docker containers:

• Postgres 14.x database, which will be available at port 7432 on localhost.
• Redis database of latest version, which will be available at port 6379 on localhost.
• Blockscout explorer at https://localhost:4000.

and 3 Rust microservices:

• Smart-contract-verifier service, which will be available at port 8150 on the host machine.
• Sig-provider service, which will be available at port 8151 on the host machine.
• Sol2UML visualizer service, which will be available at port 8152 on the host machine.

Note for Linux users: Linux users need to run the local node on https://0.0.0.0/ rather than https://127.0.0.1/

docker-compose -f docker-compose-no-rust-verification.yml up --build

The repo contains built-in configs for different clients without needing to build the image.

• Erigon: docker-compose -f docker-compose-no-build-erigon.yml up -d
• Geth: docker-compose -f docker-compose-no-build-geth.yml up -d
• Nethermind, OpenEthereum: docker-compose -f docker-compose-no-build-nethermind up -d
• Ganache: docker-compose -f docker-compose-no-build-ganache.yml up -d
• HardHat network: docker-compose -f docker-compose-no-build-hardhat-network.yml up -d
• Running only explorer without DB: docker-compose -f docker-compose-no-build-no-db-container.yml up -d. In this case, one container is created - for the explorer itself. And it assumes that the DB credentials are provided through DATABASE_URL environment variable.

All of the configs assume the Ethereum JSON RPC is running at https://localhost:8545.

In order to stop launched containers, run docker-compose -d -f config_file.yml down, replacing config_file.yml with the file name of the config which was previously launched.

You can adjust BlockScout environment variables from ./envs/common-blockscout.env. Descriptions of the ENVs are available in the docs.
