Send command to Litecoin Core (with named arguments) litecoin\-cli [options] help List commands litecoin\-cli [options] help Get help for a command .SH OPTIONS .HP \-? .IP This help message .HP \fB\-conf=\fR .IP Specify configuration file (default: litecoin.conf) .HP \fB\-datadir=\fR .IP Specify data directory .HP \fB\-getinfo\fR .IP Get general information from the remote server. Note that unlike server\-side RPC calls, the results of \fB\-getinfo\fR is the result of multiple non\-atomic requests. Some entries in the result may represent results from different states (e.g. wallet balance may be as of a different block from the chain state reported) .PP Chain selection options: .HP \fB\-testnet\fR .IP Use the test chain .HP \fB\-regtest\fR .IP Enter regression test mode, which uses a special chain in which blocks can be solved instantly. This is intended for regression testing tools and app development. .HP \fB\-named\fR .IP Pass named instead of positional arguments (default: false) .HP \fB\-rpcconnect=\fR .IP Send commands to node running on (default: 127.0.0.1) .HP \fB\-rpcport=\fR .IP Connect to JSON\-RPC on (default: 9332 or testnet: 19332) .HP \fB\-rpcwait\fR .IP Wait for RPC server to start .HP \fB\-rpcuser=\fR .IP Username for JSON\-RPC connections .HP \fB\-rpcpassword=\fR .IP Password for JSON\-RPC connections .HP \fB\-rpcclienttimeout=\fR .IP Timeout in seconds during HTTP requests, or 0 for no timeout. (default: 900) .HP \fB\-stdinrpcpass\fR .TP Read RPC password from standard input as a single line. When combined .IP with \fB\-stdin\fR, the first line from standard input is used for the RPC password. .HP \fB\-stdin\fR .IP Read extra arguments from standard input, one per line until EOF/Ctrl\-D (recommended for sensitive information such as passphrases). When combined with \fB\-stdinrpcpass\fR, the first line from standard input is used for the RPC password. .HP \fB\-rpcwallet=\fR .IP Send RPC for non\-default wallet on RPC server (argument is wallet filename in litecoind directory, required if litecoind/\-Qt runs with multiple wallets) .SH COPYRIGHT Copyright (C) 2011-2018 The Litecoin Core developers Copyright (C) 2009-2018 The Bitcoin Core developers Please contribute if you find Litecoin Core useful.
