Currently, tezos sandboxed mode blocks transactions until something like this is ran:
tezos-client bake for bootstrap1
Question: how to enable auto-bake ? (like geth --dev)
2 Answers
You can use the sandboxed baker using the tezos-baker-alpha binary. To do so, run ./tezos-baker-alpha -P 18731 run with local node /path/to/generated/data_dir where both the node's rpc and generated data directory should be logged in the sandobxed node logs.
I recommend using a persistent and static data directory to avoid copy/pasting the path at each run. To do so run the sandboxed node using the DATA_DIR environment variable. For example: DATA_DIR=/path/to/data_dir1 ./src/bin_node/tezos-sandboxed-node.sh 1; then run your baker using that path.

It will run with the deposits/rewards/… rules related to the alpha protocol (that is to say the current mainnet protocol). As the bootstrap accounts have plenty of tokens, it should be ok.– vect0rNov 12, 2019 at 9:50

If the baker can access to the secret keys of these accounts, I think it will.– vect0rNov 12, 2019 at 14:44

You can also use tezos-sandbox mini-net to run full network sandboxes with bakers, endorsers, etc.

Thanks Seb ! I can't seem to be able to use flextesa for now because it really wants interactive mode, i'm just looking to start a sandbox in a docker compose service and run my rpc call tests, perhaps you can provide a solution in this question ?
