Wallet CLI Usage

Guide for running the three wallet types: watch, keygen, and sign.

Prerequisites

  • Wallets must be built: make build
  • Configuration files must exist in config/wallet/
  • For BTC/BCH: Bitcoin Core node running (for watch wallet)
  • For ETH: Ethereum node running (for watch wallet)

Required Flags

All wallet commands require the --config flag:

Flag Short Required Description
--config -c Yes Path to configuration file
--coin No Coin type: btc, bch, eth, xrp, hyt (default: btc)
--account-config No Path to account config for multisig
--wallet -w No Bitcoin Core wallet name (BTC/BCH only)

Configuration Files

Watch Wallet

Online wallet for creating unsigned transactions and sending signed transactions.

Common Commands

bash
# Create deposit transaction
watch --config config/wallet/btc/watch.yaml --coin btc create deposit

# Create payment transaction
watch --config config/wallet/btc/watch.yaml --coin btc create payment

# Send signed transaction
watch --config config/wallet/btc/watch.yaml --coin btc send --file data/tx/btc/payment_signed.psbt

# Import addresses
watch --config config/wallet/btc/watch.yaml --coin btc import address --file data/address/btc/addresses.csv

# Import descriptors (BTC only)
watch --config config/wallet/btc/watch.yaml --coin btc import descriptor --file data/descriptor/btc/descriptors.json

# Monitor transactions
watch --config config/wallet/btc/watch.yaml --coin btc monitor senttx --account deposit

# API commands
watch --config config/wallet/btc/watch.yaml --coin btc api balance --account payment
watch --config config/wallet/btc/watch.yaml --coin btc api listunspent --account payment

Keygen Wallet

Offline cold wallet for key generation and first signature.

Common Commands

bash
# Create seed
keygen --config config/wallet/btc/keygen.yaml --coin btc create seed

# Generate HD keys
keygen --config config/wallet/btc/keygen.yaml --coin btc create hdkey --account client --keynum 10

# Export addresses
keygen --config config/wallet/btc/keygen.yaml --coin btc export address --account client

# Export descriptors (BTC only)
keygen --config config/wallet/btc/keygen.yaml --coin btc descriptor export --account payment --output data/descriptor/btc/payment.json

# Import private keys to Bitcoin Core
keygen --config config/wallet/btc/keygen.yaml --coin btc import privkey --account client

# Sign transaction (first signature)
keygen --config config/wallet/btc/keygen.yaml --coin btc sign signature --file data/tx/btc/payment_unsigned.psbt

# Create multisig addresses (with account config)
keygen --config config/wallet/btc/keygen.yaml --account-config config/wallet/account/account_2of3.yaml --coin btc create multisig --account payment

Sign Wallet

Offline cold wallet for additional signatures on multisig transactions.

Note: Sign wallet only supports btc and bch coins.

Common Commands

bash
# Create seed
sign1 --config config/wallet/btc/sign1.yaml --coin btc create seed

# Generate HD key for auth account
sign1 --config config/wallet/btc/sign1.yaml --coin btc create hdkey

# Export full public key
sign1 --config config/wallet/btc/sign1.yaml --coin btc export fullpubkey

# Import private key
sign1 --config config/wallet/btc/sign1.yaml --coin btc import privkey

# Sign transaction (second/additional signature)
sign1 --config config/wallet/btc/sign1.yaml --coin btc sign signature --file data/tx/btc/payment_unsigned_1.psbt

Multi-Coin Examples

Ethereum

bash
# Watch wallet
watch --config config/wallet/eth/watch.yaml --coin eth create deposit
watch --config config/wallet/eth/watch.yaml --coin eth api syncing

# Keygen wallet
keygen --config config/wallet/eth/keygen.yaml --coin eth create seed
keygen --config config/wallet/eth/keygen.yaml --coin eth create hdkey --account client --keynum 10

Ripple (XRP)

bash
# Watch wallet
watch --config config/wallet/xrp/watch.yaml --coin xrp create deposit

# Keygen wallet
keygen --config config/wallet/xrp/keygen.yaml --coin xrp create seed
keygen --config config/wallet/xrp/keygen.yaml --coin xrp create hdkey --account client --keynum 10

E2E Script Usage

E2E scripts set config paths as variables and use -c short flag:

bash
# From scripts/operation/btc/e2e/*.sh
BTC_CONFIG_WATCH="${PROJECT_ROOT}/config/wallet/btc/watch.yaml"
BTC_CONFIG_KEYGEN="${PROJECT_ROOT}/config/wallet/btc/keygen.yaml"

watch -c "${BTC_CONFIG_WATCH}" --coin btc create payment
keygen -c "${BTC_CONFIG_KEYGEN}" --coin btc sign signature --file tx.psbt

Troubleshooting

Error: "--config flag is required"

All wallet commands now require explicit config path:

bash
# Wrong (old way with env vars - no longer works)
export BTC_WATCH_WALLET_CONF=./config/wallet/btc/watch.yaml
watch create deposit

# Correct (new way)
watch --config ./config/wallet/btc/watch.yaml --coin btc create deposit

Error: "coin args is invalid"

Ensure --coin flag has valid value:

  • Watch/Keygen: btc, bch, eth, xrp, hyt
  • Sign: btc, bch only
