Configurable or dynamic rpc_host

There is currently an issue when running a chia node with the rpc server in a docker container. It is hard coded to listen on localhost.

This is based on one of the main ubuntu images and the /etc/hosts it is like this:

localhost is 127.0.0.1 which is the host machine and fails. I have given my container a hostname of chia.

I think there are two potential ways to fix this;

• Work out the hostname/ip of the container instead of having a hardcoded localhost
• Ability to configure rpc_host in config.yaml

However your point is well taken and we’ll try to address it in this or the next release.

Closing as this has been fixed in the next release. Thanks guys.
