tx

Usage: chr tx [<options>] <opname> [<args>]...

  Make a transaction towards a node.

  Supports both specifying the target node using url and brid/id or from a
  deployment which is specified in the chromia.yml This will post the
  transaction asynchronously unless --await is specified, in which it will wait
  until transaction has been included in a block.

  FT4 compatibility: To make a transaction towards a dapp that uses
  ft-authentication, use the --ft-auth flag. This only works if the signer
  keypair is connected to a ft-account with the correct authentication rules.
  Use --ft-account-id to explicitly state which account to use if keypair is
  connected to more than one account. Node: This does not work with
  evm-authentication

  ICCF: To verify a transaction using ICCF, specify the tx-rid to verify using
  --iccf-tx and which chain id the transaction was processed. The command will
  both construct and insert a iccf_proof operation prior to the user operation
  but will also add the the transaction as a gtx_transaction as first argument
  to the user operation.

Configuration Properties:
  -cfg, --config=<config>    Alternate path for client configuration file
  -s, --settings=<settings>  Alternate path for project settings file

Node:

  Target a test node

  -brid, --blockchain-rid=<text>  Target Blockchain RID
  --cid=<int>                     Target Blockchain IID
  --api-url=<text>                Target api url

Deployment:

  Use a configured deployment

  -d, --network=<text>      Specify which deployment target to use
  -bc, --blockchain=<text>  Name of blockchain in deployment configuration

FT compatible dapps options:
  --ft-auth               Adds ft4.ft_auth operation for FT-compatible dapps
  --ft-account-id=<text>  Explicitly specify which account to use

Options:
  --secret=<path>           Path to secret file (pubkey/privkey)
  -a, --await / --no-await  Wait for transaction to be included in a block
  -nop                      Adds a nop to the transaction
  --iccf-tx=<text>          Constructs a ICCF-proof for this tx-rid and inserts
                            iccf_proof operation to the transaction. This will
                            also add the tx as a gtx_transaction as first
                            argument to the operation
  --iccf-source=<value>     Blockchain RID for the chain which the tx to be
                            confirmed has taken place
  -h, --help                Show this message and exit

Arguments:
  <opname>  name of the operation to execute.
  <args>    arguments to pass to the operation. (integer: 123) (big_integer:
            1234L) (string: foo, "bar") (bytearray: will be encoded using the
            rell notation x"<myByteArray>" and will initially be interpreted as
            a hex-string.) (array: [foo,123]) (dict:
            ["key1":value1,"key2":value2])

You can use the tx (transaction) command (chr tx) in the same way as the query command, but you need to sign it with your key pair. It can interact with either a local (Node) or deployed chain without the use of a client.

You can set a path for the project config file (chromia.yml) or specify a different file with the use of --settings. In addition to that, you can change between a local and deployed chain target with the --deployment and --local flags. The flag is --local by default. Use the flag -a or --await to wait for the confirmation or rejection of the transaction. To make the transaction hash unique, use the - nop flag if you need to do the same transaction multiple times.

Node

You can see the Blockchain RID of the local node in the sout. An example would look like the following: Blockchain RID: FC17B67D66F6F35A5D8B75ED3F83AE222FB8C8FCA241624F06285150F10C6BAC If you are running the node on a different URL than the default http://localhost:7740, you can use the --api-url in the chromia.yml to specify it.

To perform a transaction with the operation set_name specified in the main.rell file.

chr tx --blockchain-rid <BlockchainRID> --secret .secret set_name "string:name->bob"

If you want to pass a dictionary as an argument, you have to single quote it to avoid incorrect shell parsing.

chr tx set_name '["key1":value1,"key2":value2]'

Deployed

Towards a deployed chain, you can do the same commands but need to add a --name (Deployment target) and --blockchain (Name of the chain to query) instead of the --blockchain-rid.

chr tx --network testnet --blockchain my_rell_dapp --secret .secret set_name "string:name->bob"
