terrad keys

Manage your application's keys.

Synopsis

The keys command contains the Terrad keyring management commands. These keys may be in any format supported by the Tendermint crypto library and can be used by light-clients, full nodes, or any other application that needs to sign with a private key.

The keyring supports the following backends:

Terrad

os Uses the operating system's default credentials store.

file Uses encrypted file-based keystore within the app's configuration directory.

This keyring will request a password each time it is accessed, which may occur

multiple times in a single command resulting in repeated password prompts.

kwallet Uses KDE Wallet Manager as a credentials management application.

pass Uses the pass command line utility to store and retrieve keys.

test Stores keys insecurely to disk. It does not prompt for a password to be unlocked

and it should be used only for testing purposes.

KWallet and pass backends depend on external tools. Refer to their respective documentation for more information:

• KWallet https://github.com/KDE/kwallet
• pass https://www.passwordstore.org/

The pass backend requires GnuPG: https://gnupg.org/
