corda-shell

The Corda Shell is an application that allows the user to interact with a running Corda node.

The shell has 2 artifacts for each way that it can be used:

  • A standalone application - Run the corda-standalone-shell jar using:

     java -jar corda-standalone-shell-4.9.jar [-hvV] [--logging-level=<loggingLevel>] [--password=<password>]
        [--truststore-file=<trustStoreFile>]
        [--truststore-password=<trustStorePassword>]
        [--truststore-type=<trustStoreType>] [--user=<user>] [-a=<host>]
        [-c=<cordappDirectory>] [-f=<configFile>] [-o=<commandsDirectory>]
        [-p=<port>]

    Where:

    • config-file=<configFile>, --f: The path to the shell configuration file, used instead of providing the rest of the command line options.
    • cordapp-directory=<cordappDirectory>, -c: The path to the directory containing CorDapp jars, CorDapps are required when starting flows.
    • commands-directory=<commandsDirectory>, -o: The path to the directory containing additional CRaSH shell commands.
    • host, -a: The host address of the Corda node.
    • port, -p: The RPC port of the Corda node.
    • user=<user>: The RPC user name.
    • password=<password>: The RPC user password. If not provided it will be prompted for on startup.
    • truststore-password=<trustStorePassword>: The password to unlock the TrustStore file.
    • truststore-file=<trustStoreFile>: The path to the TrustStore file.
    • truststore-type=<trustStoreType>: The type of the TrustStore (for example, JKS).
    • verbose, --log-to-console, -v: If set, prints logging to the console as well as to a file.
    • logging-level=<loggingLevel>: Enable logging at this level and higher. Possible values: ERROR, WARN, INFO, DEBUG, TRACE. Default: INFO.
    • help, -h: Show this help message and exit.
    • version, -V: Print version information and exit.

The corda-shell jar (not corda-standalone-shell) can still be used in as a standalone executable but will be missing any logging functionality.

  • A driver within a Corda node. Install the corda-shell jar in a node's /drivers directory to run the shell in the same terminal that starts the node. By default, a Corda node does not run the shell.

    When using cordaformation the shell can be included in generated node's by including the following in the build.gradle file containing deployNodes:

    cordaDriver "net.corda:corda-shell:4.9"
