# Archipelago Bitcoin Node OS - Architecture Documentation
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
Archipelago is a next-generation Bitcoin Node OS built on Alpine Linux with Podman containerization, combining the modularity of Parmanode with the security and efficiency of a minimal server OS.

## Key Components
|
|
|
|
### 1. Alpine Linux Base
|
|
|
|
- **Size**: ~130MB (vs 1.5GB+ for Umbrel)
|
|
- **Security**: Hardened kernel, minimal attack surface
|
|
- **Multi-arch**: ARM64 (Raspberry Pi) and x86_64 support
|
|
|
|
### 2. Container Orchestration Layer
|
|
|
|
Located in `core/container/`:
|
|
- **manifest.rs**: Parses YAML app manifests
|
|
- **podman_client.rs**: Wraps Podman API for container management
|
|
- **dependency_resolver.rs**: Resolves app dependencies and conflicts
|
|
- **health_monitor.rs**: Monitors container health and auto-restarts
|
|
|
|
### 3. Backend API Extensions
|
|
|
|
New RPC endpoints in `core/archipelago/src/container/`:
|
|
- `container-install`: Install app from Docker image
|
|
- `container-start/stop/remove`: Container lifecycle
|
|
- `container-status/logs`: Status and debugging
|
|
- `container-list`: List all containers
|
|
- `container-health`: Health status aggregation
|
|
|
|
### 4. Vue.js UI Integration
|
|
|
|
New components in `neode-ui/`:
|
|
- **ContainerApps.vue**: List of containerized apps
|
|
- **ContainerAppDetails.vue**: Detailed app view with logs
|
|
- **ContainerStatus.vue**: Status indicator component
|
|
- **container-client.ts**: API client for container operations
|
|
- **container.ts**: Pinia store for container state
|
|
|
|
### 5. App Manifest System
|
|
|
|
Standardized YAML format in `apps/`:
|
|
- Defines container image, resources, dependencies
|
|
- Security policies and health checks
|
|
- Bitcoin/Lightning/Web5 integration metadata
|
|
|
|
### 6. Parmanode Compatibility
|
|
|
|
Located in `core/parmanode/`:
|
|
- **script_runner.rs**: Executes Parmanode scripts in containers
|
|
- **converter.rs**: Converts Parmanode modules to app manifests
|
|
- **parmanode-wrapper.sh**: Shell wrapper for direct script execution
|
|
|
|
### 7. Security Modules
|
|
|
|
Located in `core/security/`:
|
|
- **container_policies.rs**: Generates AppArmor/SELinux profiles
|
|
- **secrets_manager.rs**: Encrypted secrets storage
|
|
- **image_verifier.rs**: Cosign signature verification
|
|
|
|
### 8. Performance Optimization
|
|
|
|
Located in `core/performance/`:
|
|
- **resource_manager.rs**: CPU/memory/disk allocation
|
|
- **optimize-alpine.sh**: OS-level optimizations
|
|
|
|

## Security Model
|
|
|
|
1. **OS Level**: Hardened Alpine, read-only root, minimal kernel
|
|
2. **Container Level**: Rootless Podman, capability dropping, network isolation
|
|
3. **Secrets**: Encrypted storage, runtime injection only
|
|
4. **Supply Chain**: Signed images (Cosign), SBOM generation
|
|
5. **Network**: Firewall, rate limiting, Tor integration
|
|
6. **Audit**: Immutable logs, configuration tracking
|
|
|
|
## Networking
|
|
|
|
- **Isolated Networks**: Each app on separate bridge network by default
|
|
- **Bitcoin Core**: Isolated network, explicit RPC access
|
|
- **Lightning Nodes**: Separate network, gRPC/REST exposed
|
|
- **Tor Integration**: Optional, default for privacy-sensitive apps
|
|
- **Mesh Networking**: Meshtastic and router support for decentralized communication
|
|
|
|
## Data Persistence
|
|
|
|
- **App Data**: `/var/lib/archipelago/{app-id}/`
|
|
- **Secrets**: `/var/lib/archipelago/secrets/{app-id}/` (encrypted)
|
|
- **Logs**: `/var/lib/archipelago/logs/{app-id}/`
|
|
- **Backups**: `/var/lib/archipelago/backups/`
|
|
|
|
