This repository contains a CLI app for working with Zcash transactions and the
Zcash blockchain, including stateless Zcash wallet functionality based upon the
zcash_client_backend and zcash_client_sqlite crates. It is built by
developers, for developers for use in prototyping Zcash functionality, and
should not be considered production-ready. The command-line API that this tool
exposes can and will change at any time and without warning.
DO NOT USE THIS IN PRODUCTION!!!
This app has not been written with security in mind. It does however have affordances such as encryption of the mnemonic seed phrases that should make it viable for small scale experimentation, at your own risk.
No binary artifacts are provided for this crate; it is generally used via
cargo run as follows:
To obtain the help docs:
cargo run --release -- --help
To obtain the help for a specific command (in this case, init)
cargo run --release -- --help init
To create a new empty testnet wallet:
cargo run --release -- -w <wallet_dir> init
cargo run --release -- -w <wallet_dir> sync
See the help docs for init for additional information, including for how to
initialize a mainnet wallet. Initializing a mainnet wallet will require
specifying a mainnet lightwallet server, e.g.
cargo run --release -- -w <wallet_dir> init -n "main" -s "zecrocks"
cargo run --release -- -w <wallet_dir> sync -s "zecrocks"
Whenever you update the zcash_client_sqlite dependency, in order to run
necessary migrations:
cargo run --release -- -w <wallet_dir> upgrade
If you want to run with debug or trace logging:
RUST_LOG=debug cargo run --release -- -w <wallet_dir> <command>
