DESCRIPTION¶
Litecoin Core RPC client version v0.18.1.0
OPTIONS¶
-?
- Print this help message and exit
-conf=<file>
- Specify configuration file. Relative paths will be prefixed by datadir location. (default: litecoin.conf)
-datadir=<dir>
- Specify data directory
-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)
-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: 9332, testnet: 19332, regtest: 19443)
-rpcuser=<user>
- Username for JSON-RPC connections
-rpcwait
- Wait for RPC server to start
-rpcwallet=<walletname>
- Send RPC for non-default wallet on RPC server (needs to exactly match corresponding -wallet option passed to litecoind). This changes the RPC endpoint used, e.g. http://127.0.0.1:9332/wallet/<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.
-version
- Print version and exit
Chain selection options:
-testnet
