Health score?A 0-100 score computed nightly from four factors: maintained (40%: recent commits and steady activity), popular (25%: GitHub stars, log scale), easy to install (20%: platforms, install notes, setup guides, Docker image) and light to run (15%: minimum RAM, ARM support). When the source code has been checked, a fifth factor, security check (20%: automated scan for committed secrets, unsafe desktop-app settings, known-vulnerable dependencies and project hygiene; any serious finding caps it at 20), is added. Factors without data are left out and the rest are rescaled.

Common questions

How should I expose OpenEthereum's HTTP and WebSocket ports when running it in Docker?

Use Docker's -p option to expose OpenEthereum's HTTP/WebSocket ports. The Docker documentation covers container options.

Can OpenEthereum be configured with a config file in Docker instead of only CLI flags?

Yes, OpenEthereum can be configured using either CLI options or a config file. If the CLI flags and config file disagree, the CLI takes precedence.

Which Docker image tag should a self-hoster use for the latest stable OpenEthereum release?

Use the latest tag on Docker Hub for the latest stable release. Nightly and older version tags are also listed.

Where can I find backup and restore guidance for an OpenEthereum node?

The OpenEthereum FAQ includes backup, restore, and files under its most-asked-questions topics. It also covers synchronization, mining, networks, and troubleshooting.
