Cloud Deployment

Quickstart can be deployed to a cloud platform to create a shareable test network for coordinated and multi-person testing.

Any platform supporting a container runtime can deploy the Quickstart image:

docker.io/stellar/quickstart:latest

Use the following environment variables to configure the image:

  • NETWORK - The network that the container will setup or connect to. One of:
    • local - A new local network will be created for development / testing.
    • testnet - The container will connect to the public testnet.
  • NETWORK_PASSPHRASE - For local networks the network passphrase that will be used.
  • RANDOMIZE_NETWORK_PASSPHRASE - For local networks the network passphrase will have a random suffix.
  • LIMITS - The network limits that will be configured for smart contracts. One of:
    • testnet - Limits that match the public testnet.
    • unlimited - Max limits supported by the network under any configuration. Useful for experimental testing prior to optimization.

Quickstart is designed for development and testing, not production.
