web3cli 0.1.6

Interact with blockchains and smart contracts using the command line

Interact with blockchains and smart contracts using the command line.

Build on web3client, the Swiss-army knife of the blockchain.

Install

pip3 install -U web3cli

Examples

• List all supported networks (blockchains):

  web3 network list
  

• Get the network that is currently active

  web3 network get
  

Settings

Settings are read from the configuration file ~/.web3cli/config/web3cli.yaml, or from environment variables. (The symbol ~ refers to the home folder of your user.) See the example configuration file for a list of available settings.

Environment variables

All settings can be overridden via environment variables. For example, the settings web3cli.default_network can be overridden by setting the env variable WEB3CLI_DEFAULT_NETWORK:

WEB3CLI_DEFAULT_NETWORK=avalanche web3 network get

output> avalanche

Folder-specific settings

To have settings that apply only to the current folder, create a web3cli.yaml file in that folder. Settings specified in web3cli.yaml will override those in your home folder. Environment variables will still get the precedence.
