Acapy-Agent Overview

Secure your stack with a hardened Acapy-Agent image freshly-built by Minimus. Minimus images always include the most up-to-date package version for all packages and dependencies contained in the image.

ACA-Py (Aries Cloud Agent Python) is a foundation for building decentralized identity applications and services. It implements the Aries interoperability protocols over DIDComm, enabling agents to issue, hold, and verify verifiable credentials and to establish secure peer-to-peer connections. ACA-Py is designed to run alongside a business logic controller, which communicates with the agent through its admin API to drive credential issuance, verification, and connection workflows.

Try It Out

For a quick test, print the help menu:

docker run --rm reg.mini.dev/acapy-agent --help

To start an agent with an inbound transport, an outbound transport, and an unsecured admin API for local testing:

docker run --rm -p 8020:8020 -p 8021:8021 reg.mini.dev/acapy-agent start \
--inbound-transport http 0.0.0.0 8020 \
--outbound-transport http \
--admin 0.0.0.0 8021 --admin-insecure-mode \
--wallet-type askar --wallet-name test --wallet-key insecure \
--no-ledger

Technical Considerations

The Acapy-Agent image provided by Minimus is a slim, security-hardened alternative to the public image. The images are largely interchangeable, with a few differences as noted below.

The Payoff

A hardened, minimal image that will remain more secure for the long run and accrue vulnerabilities at a slower rate.
