tx sign

tx sign

Sign a transaction generated offline

Synopsis​

Sign a transaction created with the --generate-only flag. It will read a transaction from [file], sign it, and print its JSON encoding.

If the --signature-only flag is set, it will output the signature parts only.

The --offline flag makes sure that the client will not reach out to full node. As a result, the account and sequence number queries will not be performed and it is required to set such parameters manually. Note, invalid values will cause the transaction to fail.

The --multisig=[multisig_key] flag generates a signature on behalf of a multisig account key. It implies --signature-only. Full multisig signed transactions may eventually be generated via the 'multisign' command.

zetacored tx sign [file] [flags]

Options​

  -a, --account-number uint      The account number of the signing account (offline mode only)
      --amino                    Generate Amino encoded JSON suitable for submiting to the txs REST endpoint
      --aux                      Generate aux signer data instead of sending a tx
  -b, --broadcast-mode string    Transaction broadcasting mode (sync|async|block) 
      --chain-id string          The network chain ID
      --dry-run                  ignore the --gas flag and perform a simulation of a transaction, but don't broadcast it (when enabled, the local Keybase is not accessible)
      --fee-granter string       Fee granter grants fees for the transaction
      --fee-payer string         Fee payer pays fees for the transaction instead of deducting from the signer
      --fees string              Fees to pay along with transaction; eg: 10uatom
      --from string              Name or address of private key with which to sign
      --gas string               gas limit to set per-transaction; set to "auto" to calculate sufficient gas automatically. Note: "auto" option doesn't always report accurate results. Set a valid coin value to adjust the result. Can be used instead of "fees". (default 200000)
      --gas-adjustment float     adjustment factor to be multiplied against the estimate returned by the tx simulation; if the gas limit is set manually this flag is ignored  (default 1)
      --gas-prices string        Gas prices in decimal format to determine the transaction fee (e.g. 0.1uatom)
      --generate-only            Build an unsigned transaction and write it to STDOUT (when enabled, the local Keybase only accessed when providing a key name)
  -h, --help                     help for sign
      --keyring-backend string   Select keyring's backend (os|file|kwallet|pass|test|memory) 
      --keyring-dir string       The client Keyring directory; if omitted, the default 'home' directory will be used
      --ledger                   Use a connected Ledger device
      --multisig string          Address or key name of the multisig account on behalf of which the transaction shall be signed
      --node string              [host]:[port] to tendermint rpc interface for this chain 
      --note string              Note to add a description to the transaction (previously --memo)
      --offline                  Offline mode (does not allow any online functionality)
  -o, --output string            Output format (text|json) 
      --output-document string   The document will be written to the given file instead of STDOUT
      --overwrite                Overwrite existing signatures with a new one. If disabled, new signature will be appended
  -s, --sequence uint            The sequence number of the signing account (offline mode only)
      --sign-mode string         Choose sign mode (direct|amino-json|direct-aux), this is an advanced feature
      --signature-only           Print only the signatures
      --timeout-height uint      Set a block timeout height to prevent the tx from being committed past a certain height
      --tip string               Tip is the amount that is going to be transferred to the fee payer on the target chain. This flag is only valid when used with --aux, and is ignored if the target chain didn't enable the TipDecorator
  -y, --yes                      Skip tx broadcasting prompt confirmation

Options inherited from parent commands​

      --home string         directory for config and data 
      --log_format string   The logging format (json|plain) 
      --log_level string    The logging level (trace|debug|info|warn|error|fatal|panic) 
      --trace               print out full stack trace on errors
