Preconfigured Docker image for running a Graph Node.

The Docker Compose setup requires an Ethereum network name and node
to connect to. By default, it will use mainnet:http://host.docker.internal:8545
in order to connect to an Ethereum node running on your host machine.
You can replace this with anything else in docker-compose.yaml
.
Note for Linux users: On Linux, if you have docker v20.10 and above, you will need to make sure you have extra_hosts in the docker-compose.yml file. If you have a docker older than v20.10,
host.docker.internal
is not supported. Instead, you will have to replace it with the IP address of your Docker host (from the perspective of the Graph Node container). To do this, run:CONTAINER_ID=$(docker container ls | grep graph-node | cut -d' ' -f1) docker exec $CONTAINER_ID /bin/bash -c 'ip route | awk \'/^default via /{print $3}\''
This will print the host's IP address. Then, put it into
docker-compose.yml
:sed -i -e 's/host.docker.internal/<IP ADDRESS>/g' docker-compose.yml
After you have set up an Ethereum node—e.g. Ganache or Parity—simply clone this repository and run
docker-compose up
This will start IPFS, Postgres and Graph Node in Docker and create persistent
data directories for IPFS and Postgres in ./data/ipfs
and ./data/postgres
. You
can access these via:
- Graph Node:
- GraphiQL:
http://localhost:8000/
- HTTP:
http://localhost:8000/subgraphs/name/<subgraph-name>
- WebSockets:
ws://localhost:8001/subgraphs/name/<subgraph-name>
- Admin:
http://localhost:8020/
- GraphiQL:
- IPFS:
127.0.0.1:5001
or/ip4/127.0.0.1/tcp/5001
- Postgres:
postgresql://graph-node:let-me-in@localhost:5432/graph-node
Once this is up and running, you can use
graph-cli
to create and
deploy your subgraph to the running Graph Node.
