> Run an Electrum server with one command
An easily configurable Docker image for running an Electrum server.
## Usage
```
docker run \
-v /home/username/electrumx:/data \
-e DAEMON_URL=http://user:pass@host:port \
-e COIN=BitcoinSegwit \
-p 50002:50002 \
lukechilds/electrumx
```
If there's an SSL certificate/key (`electrumx.crt`/`electrumx.key`) in the `/data` volume it'll be used. If not, one will be generated for you.
You can view all ElectrumX environment variables here: https://github.com/spesmilo/electrumx/blob/master/docs/environment.rst
### TCP Port
By default only the SSL port is exposed. You can expose the unencrypted TCP port with `-p 50001:50001` , although this is strongly discouraged.
### WebSocket Port
You can expose the WebSocket port with `-p 50004:50004` .
### RPC Port
To access RPC from your host machine, you'll also need to expose port 8000. You probably only want this available to localhost: `-p 127.0.0.1:8000:8000` .
If you're only accessing RPC from within the container, there's no need to expose the RPC port.
### Version
You can also run a specific version of ElectrumX if you want.
```
docker run \
-v /home/username/electrumx:/data \
-e DAEMON_URL=http://user:pass@host:port \
-e COIN=BitcoinSegwit \
-p 50002:50002 \
lukechilds/electrumx:v1.8.7
```
