Upgrade node running from docker

Docker Images​

If You Are Using a Custom Setup​

If you are running the Docker container for the node using a custom setup, you will need to manually update the Docker image version and restart the container.

For those using the Run a full node with docker o start the container, follow these steps to upgrade your node.

Step1: Update docker images version​

  • Check the latest docker image version from Docker Images

  • Update the docker image version on morph-node/docker-compose.yml

    morph-node/docker-compose.yml
    services:  
    geth: 
        container_name: morph-geth
        image: ghcr.io/morph-l2/go-ethereum:2.0.1 ## Specify the Geth image version
        restart: unless-stopped

    # ...

    node:
        container_name: morph-node
        depends_on:
        geth:
            condition: service_started
        image: ghcr.io/morph-l2/node:0.4.0 ## Specify the Node image version

    # ...

    tip

    Optionally update the image version for go-ethereum, node, or both, depending on your requirements.

Step2: Restart the container​

Use the following commands to stop and restart the container. The updated Docker images will be pulled automatically.

// stop the docker containers
make stop-node

// start the docker container, it will automatically pull the updated docker images
make run-node

If you are running a validator, use these commands instead:

make stop-validator
make run-validator
note

Ensure that the startup parameters for the Docker container remain consistent with your previous configuration. If you previously used a custom setup, verify that the configuration and directory paths match your earlier setup. For details, please refer to Advanced Usage
