Hyperledger sawtooth installation problems. No connectivity between host computer and docker container

I'm a student trying to learn something about blockchain with the hyperledger course from the linux foundation. I'm installing the sawtooth framework trough docker and I have some issues. I'm trying to check the connectivity from the host computer to the Docker container, running the following command:

curl http://localhost:8008/blocks

curl: (7) Failed to connect to localhost port 8008: Connection refused

Someone can help me to open this connection docker and host machine? I'm using a virtual machine with ubuntu, thanks a lot in advance!

Here is the yaml file:

version: "2.1"

Solution

  • you should pass the port from local computer to Docker container.

    try to pass -p 8008:8008 as an argument when running the container

    For example. docker run -d -p 8008:8008 my_image
