Copy

Creates a copy of a current config.

Usage

chain copy <current config name/chainId> <new config name>

Example

? keplr-g3@galileo-3> chain copy galileo3 test
- Loading config...
Config loaded!
- Connecting client...
? keplr-g3@galileo-3> chain list
Name        Chain ID     
elgafar1    elgafar-1    
pisco1      pisco-1      
sei-network atlantic-1   
injective   injective-888
galileo3    galileo-3            
test        galileo-3    
? keplr-g3@galileo-3> () 

When you copy a config, the wallets from the copied config are also copied to the new one.

Get

Gets the value for the specified key. The keys are the ones found above when we call chain config (chainId, chainUrl, ect...)

Usage

chain get <key>

If the <key> is not specified, then the entire config will be fetched.

Example

//Get the chainName of the chain

? $main@elgafar-1> chain get chainName
Current chain config

Key       Value    Description          
chainName Stargaze The name of the chain

List

Lists all the saved configs.

Usage

chain list

Example

? keplr-g3@galileo-3> chain list
Name        Chain ID     
elgafar1    elgafar-1    
pisco1      pisco-1      
sei-network atlantic-1   
injective   injective-888
galileo3    galileo-3           

The chain currently is use is highlighted in green.

New

Creates a new config.

Usage

chain new <name>

Example

? keplr-g3@galileo-3> chain new tutorial

You will be prompted to enter the required config fields. We can then query the configs:

? keplr-g3@galileo-3> chain list
Name        Chain ID     
elgafar1    elgafar-1    
pisco1      pisco-1      
sei-network atlantic-1   
injective   injective-888
galileo3    galileo-3     
tutorial elgafar-1

Remove

Removes a config by name or chain ID.

You can only remove configs that have been added and not default configs.

Usage

chain rm <config name>

Example

? keplr-g3@galileo-3> chain rm tutorial

Use

Swaps to one of the saved configs.

Usage

chain use <chainId/name>

Example

// Get a list of chains saved. elgafar-1 is currently used. 

? guide@elgafar-1> chain list
Name        Chain ID     
elgafar1    elgafar-1    
pisco1      pisco-1      
sei-network atlantic-1   
injective   injective-888
galileo3    galileo-3           
example     galileo-3      

// Set galileo-3 as the config to use using the ID.

? guide@elgafar-1> chain use galileo-3
⠂ Loading configs...
– Loading config...
Config loaded!
⠂ Connecting client...
? user@galileo-3> ()  

//Set elgafar-1 as the config to use using the name.

? user@galileo-3> chain use elgafar1
- Loading configs...
– Loading config...
Config loaded!
- Connecting client...
? guide@elgafar-1> () 

CLI Configs

You can get all the configs from the CLI by running chain config.
