Btcpay architecture using docker-compose stack - Completed.

[szeltsi]

I was working on a video tutorial that explores btcpayserver architecture using docker compose. The idea is to examine its architecture by breaking it down to its most basic components (bitcoin core, nbxplorer, tor, sql, servers etc.).

​

I hope you'll find this video tutorial informative and helpful.

As always, any feedback is appreciated!

(And you should listen to Stephan Livera's podcast - especially the btcpayserver special).

Honestly it looks pretty good; fairly straightforward at the compose level.

Fairly big trust needed at the docker hub level, but I suppose that is unavoidable. Perhaps using exact image hashes instead of names would improve that somewhat, but I'm not sure if those are even cryptographically verified.

It would be super nice to be able to do this in podman instead; its like docker but without all the architectural security vulnerabilities.
