## Bitcoin-s command line interface
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The [cli](/api/org/bitcoins/cli) project is meant to be a bitcoin-s command line interface (cli).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Building the command line interface
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You must first have [bitcoin-s properly installed](../getting-setup) on your machine, after which you should be able to build the cli with
|
||
|
|
```bashrc
|
||
|
|
$ sbt cli/universal:stage
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
After running that command you should find the executable here:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
bitcoin-s/app/cli/target/universal/stage/bin/bitcoin-s-cli
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Executing commands
|
||
|
|
You can ask the client for help with
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
./app/cli/target/universal/stage/bin/bitcoin-s-cli --help
|
||
|
|
Usage: bitcoin-s-cli [options] [<cmd>]
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
-n, --network <value> Select the active network.
|
||
|
|
--debug Print debugging information
|
||
|
|
-h, --help Display this help message and exit
|
||
|
|
<cmd> The command and arguments to be executed. Try bitcoin-s-cli help for a list of all commands
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Now you are are ready to start the server that the cli sends commands to. Take a look at our [server](server.md) documentation on how to build and start the server.
