To install docker engine on your platform see:

It's recommended to setup docker to work without sudo.<br>
Without this step you will need to preface each `docker-compose` command with `sudo`:
https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/linux-postinstall/
#### Create the images:
COINDATA_PATH can be set to your preferance but must be exported each time you launch Basicswap.<br>
Consider adding COINDATA_PATH to the `.env` file in the docker directory file so it's always set.
export COINDATA_PATH=/var/data/coinswaps
cd basicswap/docker
docker-compose build
#### Prepare the datadir:
Set XMR_RPC_HOST and BASE_XMR_RPC_PORT to a public XMR node or exclude to run a local node.
Set xmrrestoreheight to the current xmr chain height.
CURRENT_XMR_HEIGHT=$(curl https://localmonero.co/blocks/api/get_stats | jq .height)
Adjust `--withcoins` and `--withoutcoins` as desired, eg: `--withcoins=monero,bitcoin`. By default only Particl is loaded.
##### FastSync
Append `--usebtcfastsync` to the below command to optionally initialise the Bitcoin datadir with a chain snapshot from btcpayserver FastSync.<br>
[FastSync README.md](https://github.com/btcpayserver/btcpayserver-docker/blob/master/contrib/FastSync/README.md)
Setup with a local Monero daemon (recommended):
export COINDATA_PATH=/var/data/coinswaps
docker run --rm -e XMR_RPC_HOST="node.xmr.to" -e BASE_XMR_RPC_PORT=18081 -t --name swap_prepare -v $COINDATA_PATH:/coindata i_swapclient \
basicswap-prepare --datadir=/coindata --withcoins=monero --htmlhost="0.0.0.0" --xmrrestoreheight=$CURRENT_XMR_HEIGHT
docker run --rm -t --name swap_prepare -v $COINDATA_PATH:/coindata i_swapclient basicswap-prepare --datadir=/coindata --withcoins=monero --htmlhost="0.0.0.0" --xmrrestoreheight=$CURRENT_XMR_HEIGHT
**Record the mnemonic from the output of the above command.**
To instead use Monero public nodes and not run a local Monero daemon<br>(it can be difficult to find reliable public nodes):
##### FastSync
Set XMR_RPC_HOST and BASE_XMR_RPC_PORT to a public XMR node.
export COINDATA_PATH=/var/data/coinswaps
docker run --rm -e XMR_RPC_HOST="node.xmr.to" -e BASE_XMR_RPC_PORT=18081 -t --name swap_prepare -v $COINDATA_PATH:/coindata i_swapclient basicswap-prepare --datadir=/coindata --withcoins=monero --htmlhost="0.0.0.0" --xmrrestoreheight=$CURRENT_XMR_HEIGHT

And the output of `echo $CURRENT_XMR_HEIGHT` for use if you need to later restore your wallet.
