 # Relay
 
-**Relay** is a Node.js wrapper around [LND](https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd), handling connectivity and storage for [**Sphinx**](https://sphinx.chat). Communication between Relay nodes takes place entirely on the Lightning Network, so is decentralized, untraceable, and encrypted. Message content is also end-to-end encrypted using client public keys, on the **Sphinx** app itself.

+## Using Docker on Raspberry Pi
+
+Install docker-compose: https://medium.com/@techiebouncer/install-docker-and-docker-compose-on-raspberry-pi-4-raspbian-buster-c5b78b9a0d08
+
+Clone this repo.
+
+Copy your id_rsa to clone the private lnd-lean repo.
+
+```
+cp ~/.ssh/id_rsa .
+```
+
+Build it.
+
+```
+docker-compose build
+```
+
+Edit your docker-compose.yml file replacing NODE_IP and NODE_ALIAS.
+
+Relay will run on port 3000 local. You would need to point your router's port forwarding from 80 to 3000 to your docker machine.
+
+Start up LND separately first.
+
+```
+docker-compose up lnd
+```
+
+- In another terminal, go to the project folder and run.
+
+```
+docker-compose exec lnd bash
+```
+
+Once you're given a bash, run `ping lnd` and take note of the IP, this is because we need to tell Relay where lnd is via the IP, this is a temporary measure due to the limitation of the grpc connection can only be done via IP and not domain name.
+
+Edit your app.json file inside config and on the `production` key replace `node_ip` with the one from the ping.
+
+Run Relay.
+
+```
+docker-compose up node_server
+```
+
+Create / Unlock your wallet
+
+```
+docker-compose exec lnd lncli create
+
+docker-compose exec lnd lncli unlock
+```
+
+NOTE: All lncli commands need to be prepended with `docker-compose exec lnd`, this tells docker to execute **something** on the lnd container.
+
+## Without Docker
+
 You can run your own Sphinx node in order to have full ownership over your communication!
