BITCOIN-CLI(1) User Commands BITCOIN-CLI(1) NAME bitcoin-cli - manual page for bitcoin-cli v22.0.0 SYNOPSIS bitcoin-cli [options] _command_ [params] Send command to Bitcoin Core bitcoin-cli [options] -named _command_ [name=value]... Send command to Bitcoin Core (with named arguments) bitcoin-cli [options] help List commands bitcoin-cli [options] help _command_ Get help for a command DESCRIPTION Bitcoin Core RPC client version v22.0.0 OPTIONS -? Print this help message and exit -addrinfo Get the number of addresses known to the node, per network and total. -conf=<file> Specify configuration file. Relative paths will be prefixed by datadir location. (default: bitcoin.conf) -datadir=<dir> Specify data directory -generate Generate blocks immediately, equivalent to RPC getnewaddress followed by RPC generatetoaddress. Optional positional integer arguments are number of blocks to generate (default: 1) and max- imum iterations to try (default: 1000000), equivalent to RPC generatetoaddress nblocks and maxtries arguments. Example: bit- coin-cli -generate 4 1000 -getinfo Get general information from the remote server. Note that unlike server-side RPC calls, the results of -getinfo is the result of multiple non-atomic requests. Some entries in the result may represent results from different states (e.g. wallet balance may be as of a different block from the chain state reported) -named Pass named instead of positional arguments (default: false) -netinfo Get network peer connection information from the remote server. An optional integer argument from 0 to 4 can be passed for dif- ferent peers listings (default: 0). Pass "help" for detailed help documentation. -rpcclienttimeout=<n> Timeout in seconds during HTTP requests, or 0 for no timeout. (default: 900) -rpcconnect=<ip> Send commands to node running on <ip> (default: 127.0.0.1) -rpccookiefile=<loc> Location of the auth cookie. Relative paths will be prefixed by a net-specific datadir location. (default: data dir) -rpcpassword=<pw> Password for JSON-RPC connections -rpcport=<port> Connect to JSON-RPC on <port> (default: 8332, testnet: 18332, signet: 38332, regtest: 18443) -rpcuser=<user> Username for JSON-RPC connections -rpcwait Wait for RPC server to start -rpcwaittimeout=<n> Timeout in seconds to wait for the RPC server to start, or 0 for no timeout. (default: 0) -rpcwallet=<walletname> Send RPC for non-default wallet on RPC server (needs to exactly match corresponding -wallet option passed to bitcoind). This changes the RPC endpoint used, e.g. http://127.0.0.1:8332/wal- let/<walletname> -stdin Read extra arguments from standard input, one per line until EOF/Ctrl-D (recommended for sensitive information such as passphrases). When combined with -stdinrpcpass, the first line from standard input is used for the RPC password. -stdinrpcpass Read RPC password from standard input as a single line. When combined with -stdin, the first line from standard input is used for the RPC password. When combined with -stdinwalletpassphrase, -stdinrpcpass consumes the first line, and -stdinwallet- passphrase consumes the second. -stdinwalletpassphrase Read wallet passphrase from standard input as a single line. When combined with -stdin, the first line from standard input is used for the wallet passphrase. -version Print version and exit Debugging/Testing options: Chain selection options: -chain=<chain> Use the chain <chain> (default: main). Allowed values: main, test, signet, regtest -signet Use the signet chain. Equivalent to -chain=signet. Note that the network is defined by the -signetchallenge parameter -signetchallenge Blocks must satisfy the given script to be considered valid (only for signet networks; defaults to the global default signet test network challenge) -signetseednode Specify a seed node for the signet network, in the host- name[:port] format, e.g. sig.net:1234 (may be used multiple times to specify multiple seed nodes; defaults to the global de- fault signet test network seed node(s)) -testnet Use the test chain. Equivalent to -chain=test. bitcoin-cli v22.0.0 September 2021 BITCOIN-CLI(1)
