Bitcoin Node with RegTest mode using Docker

Do you want to know about Bitcoin Node with RegTest mode using Docker? Look at this project 👀!

Project details

⚠ Note that you must add the -regtest argument after each bitcoin-cli command to correctly access your Regtest environment. If you prefer, you can include a regtest=1 command in your ~/.bitcoin/bitcoin.conf file.

At the root folder of the project, just issue the following command:

UID=$UID GID=$GID docker-compose up bitcoin-core-regtest

Now you are able to create a wallet! Let's create two:

docker-compose exec --user bitcoin bitcoin-core-regtest bitcoin-cli -regtest createwallet "iago"
docker-compose exec --user bitcoin bitcoin-core-regtest bitcoin-cli -regtest createwallet "jafar"

You can create an address for receiving payments for each wallet, including one more for jafar:

docker-compose exec --user bitcoin bitcoin-core-regtest bitcoin-cli -regtest -rpcwallet=iago getnewaddress
docker-compose exec --user bitcoin bitcoin-core-regtest bitcoin-cli -regtest -rpcwallet=jafar getnewaddress
docker-compose exec --user bitcoin bitcoin-core-regtest bitcoin-cli -regtest -rpcwallet=jafar getnewaddress -addresstype p2sh-segwit

Listing all addresses from each wallet:

docker-compose exec --user bitcoin bitcoin-core-regtest bitcoin-cli -regtest -rpcwallet=iago listreceivedbyaddress 1 true
docker-compose exec --user bitcoin bitcoin-core-regtest bitcoin-cli -regtest -rpcwallet=jafar listreceivedbyaddress 1 true

If you want to explore directly inside the container, just issue the command:

docker-compose exec --user bitcoin bitcoin-core-regtest sh
