Simple way to run a Monero node with some basic monitoring tools packaged in.
Simple way to run a Monero node with some monitoring and anonymity tools packaged in:
* [monero-exporter](https://github.com/cirocosta/monero-exporter) - exposes metrics of the daemon
* [nodemapper](./dockerfiles/nodemapper.py) - gathers GeoIP data for peers
* [Prometheus](https://prometheus.io/docs/introduction/overview/) - monitors the exporter
* [Grafana](https://grafana.com/) - shows visualizations and dashboards
* [tor](https://www.torproject.org/) - provides tx relays over tor proxy
* [i2pd](https://i2pd.website/) - provides tx relays over i2p proxy
Leverages [Prometheus](https://prometheus.io/docs/introduction/overview/), [Grafana](https://grafana.com/), [nodemapper](./dockerfiles/nodemapper.py), and [monero-exporter](https://github.com/cirocosta/monero-exporter) on top of `monerod`.

The following ports will be bound for `monerod` by default, but you can override in `.env`:
@ -32,10 +41,15 @@ The following ports are commented out but can be enabled to test things locally:
- 3000 # grafana web ui
- 9000 # exporter web api (/metrics)
- 5000 # nodemapper web api (/metrics)
- 9050 # tor proxy
- 4444 # i2p http proxy
- 4447 # i2p socks proxy
There are two hard-coded IP addresses for the tor and i2p proxies (monerod requires an IP address for setting the `--tx-proxy` flag.) You will need to modify your compose file if you need to adjust them.
You will want to open/allow ports 18080 and 18081 in your firewall for usage as a remote/public node (or whichever p2p and restricted ports you picked).
Also, you may want to setup a reverse proxy to Grafana if you would like to expose the visualizations for the world to see. Be sure to lock down the administrative settings or leave login disabled!
