Command Line Interface

Command line (CLI) arguments are arguments specified after the RSK start class. See Config Options

New entry points (Java classes with static public main method) have been included from the RSK Hop Release v4.3.0.

The CLI arguments have two forms; the parameter and the flag:

Parameter
- Has a name and an associated value, separated by a space
- Starts with a dash
Flag
- It's a single text, without spaces
- Starts with a double dash

Find below a list of CLI flags and parameters available:

Parameters and Flags

The following CLI flags determine which network the Rootstock (RSK) node will connect to.

--main: This indicates that the configuration for the Rootstock Mainnet (public network) should be used.
--testnet: This indicates that the configuration for the Rootstock Testnet (public network) should be used.
--regtest: This indicates that the configuration for the Rootstock Regtest (localhost network) should be used.
- Example: java -cp rsk-core-<VERSION>.jar co.rsk.start --regtest

Only one of these three CLI flags should be specified.

When none of these are specified, Rootstock Mainnet is used by default.

The Rootstock (RSK) node stores transactions, blocks, and other blockchain state on disk. This is known as the Blockchain Database.

--reset: This indicates that the block database should be erased, and should start from scratch, i.e. from genesis block. This is typically expected to be used when connecting to Rootstock Regtest, or in select debugging scenarios. It is also used when switching between different databases, e.g. between leveldb and rocksdb.
--import: This indicates that the block database should be imported from an external source. This is typically expected to be used when connecting to Rootstock Testnet or Rootstock Mainnet, and when a reduction in "initial sync time" is desired. It is also used when switching between different databases, e.g. between leveldb and rocksdb.

--verify-config: This indicates that the configuration file used by this run of the Rootstock node should be validated. By default this step is always performed.
--print-system-info: This indicates that the system information of the computer that the Rootstock node is running on should be output. By default, this is always output.
--skip-java-check: This indicates that the detection of the version of the Java Virtual Machine that the Rootstock node is running in is supported. By default, this check is always performed, to ensure that the Rootstock node is running in a compatible environment.
-base-path: This specifies the value of database.dir, where the blockchain database is stored.

Example: java -cp rsk-core-<VERSION>.jar co.rsk.start -base-path home/rsk/data

-rpccors This specifies the value of rpc.providers.web.cors to control cors configuration.

Example: java -cp rsk-core-<VERSION>.jar co.rsk.start -rpccors *

Command Line Tools

It worth highlight that for some commands below that interacts with the database, you might and should set the network flag desired, like --regtest, --testnet or --main. Otherwise, the default network will be used, which is the Rootstock Mainnet (public network).

ExportState

The ExportState command is a tool for exporting the state at a specific block in the Rootstock blockchain to a file.

Usage:

java -cp rsk.jar co.rsk.cli.tools.ExportState -b <block_number> -f <file_path> --<network_flag>

Options:

-b, --block: The block number to export the state from.
-f, --file: The path to a file to export the state to.

Example:

In this example, the state information of block 2000 will be exported to the file “test.txt” on the regtest network.

java -cp rsk.jar co.rsk.cli.tools.ExportState -b 2000 -f test.txt --regtest

Output:

  INFO [clitool] [main]  ExportState started
  INFO [o.e.d.CacheSnapshotHandler] [main]  Loaded 194912 cache entries from 'unitrie/rskcache'
  INFO [clitool] [main]  ExportState finished
  INFO [o.e.d.CacheSnapshotHandler] [main]  Saved 194912 cache entries in 'unitrie/rskcache'

The “test.txt” should look like this:

  5c0700caa04b0e28aa38d3d4a74a560332c38111cb1ac2292a89512d009658d2a7ed7d2cecc372b5c25799434b1cc5e49d795fc371db88e3d0c3635e273fc3c496b897fdc60c

  …etc

ExportBlocks

The ExportBlocks command is a tool for exporting blocks from a specific block range to a file. The tool retrieves the block range and exports each block in the range to a specified file.

Usage:

  java -cp rsk.jar co.rsk.cli.tools.ExportBlocks -fb <from_block_number>  -tb <to_block_number> -f <file_path>

Options:

-fb, --fromBlock: The block number to start exporting from. -tb, --toBlock: The block number to stop exporting.

Example:

In this example, the blocks from block 2000 to block 3000 will be exported to the specified file.

  java -cp rsk.jar co.rsk.cli.tools.ExportBlocks -fb 2000 -tb 3000  -f   test-blocks.txt

Output:

  2023-04-24-16:23:25.0897 INFO [clitool] [main]  ExportBlocks started
  2023-04-24-16:23:26.0373 INFO [clitool] [main]  ExportBlocks finished

Blocks.txt should show the following:

StartBootstrap

The StartBootcamp command starts a bootstrap node with one service, which only participates in the peer discovery protocol.

Example:

java -cp rsk.jar co.rsk.cli.tools.StartBootstrap

Output:

  2023-04-24-15:51:14.0793 INFO [fullnoderunner] [main]  Starting RSK
  2023-04-24-15:51:14.0794 INFO [fullnoderunner] [main]  Running orchid-testnet.json,
  core version: 5.1.0-SNAPSHOT
  ....

RewindBlocks

The RewindBlocks command is used to rewind the Rootstock blockchain to a specific block. It can also be used to find and print the minimum inconsistent block (a block with missing state in the states database).

Example:

  java -cp rsk.jar co.rsk.cli.tools.RewindBlocks [-b <BLOCK_NUMBER>]  [-fmi] (or) [-rbc] --<network_flag>

Options:

-b, --block=BLOCK_NUMBER_TO_REWIND_TO block number to rewind blocks to.
-fmi, --findMinInconsistentBlock flag to find a min inconsistent block. The default value is false.
-rbc, --rewindToBestConsistentBlock flag to rewind to the best consistent block. The default value is false.
- An inconsistent block is the one with missing state in the states db (this can happen in case of improper node shutdown).
- fmi option can be used for finding a minimum inconsistent block number and printing it to stdout. It will print -1, if no such block is found.
- rbc option does two things: it looks for a minimum inconsistent block and, if there's such, rewinds blocks from top one till the found one.
- Note that all three options are mutually exclusive, you can specify only one per call.

Example:

java -cp rsk.jar co.rsk.cli.tools.RewindBlocks -b 2000 —regtest

Output:

  INFO [clitool] [main]  RewindBlocks started
  INFO [clitool] [main]  Highest block number stored in db: 49703
  INFO [clitool] [main]  Block number to rewind to: 2000
  INFO [clitool] [main]  Rewinding...
  INFO [clitool] [main]  Done
  INFO [clitool] [main]  New highest block number stored in db: 2000
  INFO [clitool] [main]  RewindBlocks finished

DbMigrate

Options:

-t, --targetDb: The target database to migrate to. (“leveldb” or “rocksdb”).

Example:

In this example, the current database will be migrated from leveldb to rocksdb.

java -cp rsk.jar co.rsk.cli.tools.DbMigrate -t rocksdb

Output:

  INFO [clitool] [main]  DbMigrate started
  INFO [clitool] [main]  DbMigrate finished

Tip

If the target database is the same as the one working on the node, the node will throw an error: Cannot migrate to the same database, current db is X_DB and target db is X_DB.

ShowStateInfo

The ShowStateInfo command is a tool for displaying state information of a specific block in the Rootstock blockchain.

Usage:

java -cp rsk.jar co.rsk.cli.tools.ShowStateInfo -b <block_number>

Configuration over CLI

Besides the parameters and flags, it's also possible to configure the node over the CLI using the JVM parameters, which starts with the prefix -D followed by the full path of the configuration like it is placed inside the configuration file.

Example:

  java -cp rskj-core-<VERSION>.jar -Ddatabase.dir=/home/rsk/data co.rsk.Start

Most of the configurable options or settings for RSKj are available in "config". See config reference for more details.
