IDEX Staking Node

This role sets up an IDEX staking node directly using the docker container provided by the IDEX team.

Requirements

From ansible perspective:

• docker to be already setup
• The requirements for the docker_container ansible module

For configuring the staking node you will need the "Replicator Staking Key" that can be found in the Staking/Replicator section in IDEX.

For the replicator to work you need the host to have the port 8081 reachable from the public network. This role publishes the container port.

• idex_staking_node__version (optional, default: 0.0.1): IDEX staking replicator docker container version to use

• idex_staking_node__data_dir (optional, default: /var/idex-staking-replicator/): Path to the location to use for the persistent data for the container. Will be created by the role
