Trying Things On-Chain

Trying Things On-Chain With Endless CLI

The CLI can be a convenient tool for quickly looking up on-chain data and sending transactions from your accounts.

The most common way to specify what accounts you want to interact with is through profiles. You can create a new profile on the cli by running the following command:

endless init --profile <your-profile-name>

If any command takes an account, you can pass in the name of a profile instead. If a command implicitly uses the default profile, it will usually have an optional parameter to use a specified profile instead which you can find by running endless <your-command> --help.

With that, the three main things you can use the CLI to do on-chain include:

1. Looking Up On-Chain Account Info

2. Creating test accounts and sending transactions

3. Securely interacting on-chain via a Hardware Ledger
