**NOT for Production Use**
For those who like using Docker and wish to experiment with BigchainDB in
non-production environments, we currently maintain a `Dockerfile` that can be
non-production environments, we currently maintain a `dockerfile` that can be
used to build an image for `bigchaindb`, along with a `docker-compose.yml` file
to manage a "standalone node", consisting mainly of two containers: one for
rethinkdb, and another for `bigchaindb`.
RethinkDB, and another for `bigchaindb`.
Assuming you have `docker` and `docker-compose` installed, you would proceed as
follows.
In a terminal shell:
```bash
```text
$ git clone git@github.com:bigchaindb/bigchaindb.git
```
Build the docker image
```bash
Build the Docker image:
```text
$ docker-compose build
```
then, a one-time configuration step, to create the config file, which will be
stored on your host machine under ` ~/.bigchaindb_docker/config`
```bash
then do a one-time configuration step to create the config file; it will be
stored on your host machine under ` ~/.bigchaindb_docker/config`:
```text
$ docker-compose run --rm bigchaindb bigchaindb configure
```
you can load test transactions via
```bash
You can load test transactions via:
```text
$ docker-compose run --rm bigchaindb bigchaindb-benchmark load
```
you should then be able to start `bigchaindb`, via
```bash

```text
$ docker-compose run --rm bigchaindb bigchaindb start
```
or
```bash
```text
$ docker-compose up
