Status Mailserver

This folder contains setup for running your own Status Mailserver. It uses:

Docker Compose for managing the Status Mailserver container.
Makefile to simplify the process for the user.

Requirements

This Makefile uses two tools: jq and docker-compose.

Usage

To simply start a container run make, other commands include:

make start - Starts the status-go-mailserver container.
make stop - Stops the container.
make show - Shows you current status of the container.
make logs - Shows you logs of the container.
make config.json - Creates config.json with your Public IP.

Settings

All settings are passed through environment variables:

PUBLIC_IP - Your IP visible from the internet and advertised by the Mailserver.
LISTEN_PORT - Mailserver TCP port, by default it's 30303 but you might want to use 443.
RPC_PORT - Control port making it possible to use the JSON-RPC API.
API_MODULES - API modules to be made available via the RPC_PORT.
DATA_PATH - Location of Mailserver storage and keys. (Default: /var/tmp/status-go-mail)
CONTAINER_NAME - Name of the container that will be created.
LOG_LEVEL - Set level of log messages to show. (ERROR, WARN, INFO, DEBUG, TRACE)

Known Issues

If the discovery of your Public IP does not work please simply export the PUBLIC_IP env variable. You can also set LISTEN_PORT to something else to avoid firewall issues.

$ export PUBLIC_IP=1.2.3.4
$ export LISTEN_PORT=443
$ make
docker-compose up -d
