### Docker
It is possible to build the tool using docker:
You can obtain the latest version of `ethdo` using docker with:
```
docker pull wealdtech/ethdo
```
Or build `ethdo` using docker:
```sh
docker build -t ethdo .
```
You can run the tool using docker after that. Example:
You can run `ethdo` using docker after that. Example:
```sh
docker run -it ethdo --help
```
Note that that many `ethdo` commands connect to the beacon node to obtain information. If the beacon node is running directly on the server this requires the `--network=host` command, for example:
```sh
docker run --network=host ethdo chain status
```
Alternatively, if the beacon node is running in a separate docker container a shared network can be created with `docker network create eth2` and accessed by adding `--network=eth2` added to both the beacon node and `ethdo` containers.
## Usage
ethdo contains a large number of features that are useful for day-to-day interactions with the Ethereum 2 blockchain.
