Introduction

The tp CLI utility will help you to:

• generate keys (secp256k1 and ed25519);
• register your IP address;
• form the transactions from a JSON-formatted template;
• signing (including signing using multiple keys).

Prerequisites

You need to have Erlang version 24 installed on your machine, and escript interpreter should be included into paths.

Installation

To install tp CLI:

1. Download the tool.

   caution

   Please, ensure that you have the latest version of the tool.

2. Move the file to /usr/local/bin:

   mv /usr/local/bin

3. Change the file execution mode:

   chmod a+x

Utility description and usage

The tp CLI utility consists of two parts:

• generic: this part of utility will help you work with keys and transactions;
• storage: this part of utility will help you work with smart contracts.

Usage examples

1. For example, you can use the following command to form, sign, and view a transaction:

   tp -k mykey.key --construct tx1.json --sign --showtx

2. If you need to sign and send a transaction, specify an address for a node you intend to work with:

   tp -h https://node.address.com:00000/  -k mykey.key --construct tx1.json --ss

3. --example key now generates three following examples:

   • example_deploy.json — deployment of a smart contract;
   • example_generic.json — generic transaction;
   • example_evmcall.json — evm call example.

Generic part commands

Command	Description
-h, --host	Tpnode's base address, use httpsi as a protocol for ssl without certificate verification [default: http://127.0.0.1:49841]
--hexkey	Keyfile. You can specifiy a key in HEX format (as it is stored in the keyfile) in the command line
-k, --keyfile	Path to a key file
--ed25519	Use ed25519 for keys generation. ed25519 MUST be used as a node key format. For wallet keys you can also use the old secp256k1 key. Note: generate the old-formatted keys for wallets, if you want to use this address for the WEB-wallet at the moment. Our WEB-services will support ed25519 keys for wallets in future releases
--genkey	Generate a key. The generated kay will be saved into tpcli.key or another file specified with -k key
--exportkey	Export a key into PEM
--exportpw	Password for export
--exportwif	Export a key to wif (Only for secp256k1 keys to use them in other services)
--importwif	Import a key from wif
--ping	Ping a node
--get_settings	Get chain settings from a node
--get_ledger	Get ledger state for specified address
--get_code	Get ledger's contract code for an address
--register	Run address registration on a chain. The address will be saved to a file
--example	Save transaction examples to the files in this directory
--construct	Construct a tx (transaction) from JSON <filename>
--evmcall	Call EVM contract function, take arguments from <filename>. The call is made locally on the deployed contract with the address and the state specified. There is no actions being performed in blockchain during this operation
--abi	Contract's ABI for result decoding. It means that this command interprets the result of EVM call using the ABI-file
--callresp	Save evmcall result to <filename> (add .hex extension to save the file in HEX format, .b64 to save the file in Base64. If there is no extension specified, it will be saved in raw binary)
--save	Save a constructed or loaded tx to <filename> in binary format
--load	Load a prepaired tx from <filename> in binary format
--gasprice	Calculate gas price. It shows the tokens, you can buy it for, as well as the gas price in those tokens
--estimate	Estimate fee and gas. The command executes the contract locally
--showtx	Display a tx
--sign	Sign a transaction
--submit	Send a transaction to the node
--ss	Sign and submit by one command

Storage part commands

Command	Description
-h, --host	Tpnode's base address, use httpsi as a protocol for ssl without certificate verification [default: http://127.0.0.1:49841]
--hexkey	Keyfile. You can specifiy a key in HEX format (as it is stored in the keyfile) in the command line
-k, --keyfile	Path to a key file
--mkmanifest	Make manifest.json for a specified directory
--newstoragetask	Create a new storage task <bucket name> (specify a contract name to work with)
--manifest	Specify another manifest filename [default: manifest.json]
--interval	Store interval for a newstoragetask [default: 1 year]. The following intervals are supported: - year (365 days); - mon (30 days); - week (7 days); - day; - hour; - min; - sec. You can group several intervals into one, for example: 1 year 3 mon 2 week 3 min
--transfer	Transfer amount and currency for a newstoragetask, for example: 10 SK
--gas	Specify gas manually
--get_task	Get task info for a task by <task id>
--newprovider	Create new storage provider with <baseurl> or <baseurl,uploadurl> as arguments
--showtx	Display a tx
--sign	Sign a transaction
--submit	Send a transaction to the node
--ss	Sign and submit by one command
<address>	Storage contract address
