This is a p2pool container image built using the binaries distributed by SChernykh. The container image runs p2pool.
Since the distributed p2pool binary uses dynamically-linked glibc, it uses the Chainguard glibc-dynamic base image. This is a distroless container, and as such has very little attack surfaces. It also has no shell, so it's not possible to execute a shell into the container.
podman pull ghcr.io/comminutus/p2pool
podman run -it --rm ghcr.io/comminutus/p2pool
Note that the container image does not set any other command line options other than --data-api (see "Volumes" below).
For a full list of command line options, run p2pool --help.
The container's persistent data, including configuration and blockchain data are stored at /var/lib/p2pool.
When running the container image with Docker, Kubernetes, OpenShift, etc., mount your volumes at /var/lib/p2pool.
Because the container uses Chainguard's image as a base, the p2pool process is run as a non-root user. The username and group name is nonroot. The UID and GID are set to 65532.
The container exposes the following ports:
| Port | Enabled by Default? | Use |
|---|---|---|
| 3333 | Y | Stratum server (port used for miners to communicate with p2pool) |
| 37888 | N | p2pool-mini side chain peer communications; only used if --mini is used on command line |
| 37889 | Y | p2pool side chain peer communications; disabled if --mini is used on command line |
| Name | Version |
|---|---|
| Chainguard glibc-dynamic | latest |
| p2pool | v4.1 |
