Manage Keys

To interact with other fellowships and templates you need to import their public keys into your wallet. This allows to derive the right keys to derive the next address where to send the funds.

Export a base verification key​

To export a base verification key run the following command:

brambl-cli wallet export-vk -w $PASSWORD -o $OUTPUT_FILE --walletdb $WALLET --fellowship-name $FELLOWSHIP_NAME --template-name $LOCK_TEMPLATE_NAME --keyfile $KEYFILE -n $NETWORK

This will export the base verification key for the fellowship $FELLOWSHIP_NAME and template $LOCK_TEMPLATE_NAME to the file $OUTPUT_FILE. The keyfile $KEYFILE is used to derive the exported key.

This command is also used to export a final verification key. To do this, use the --interaction option to specify the interaction from which to export the key.

Import a base verification key​

To import one or many base verification keys run the following command:

brambl-cli wallet import-vks --input-vks $BASE_VK_1,$BASE_VK_2 --fellowship-name $FELLOWSHIP_NAME --template-name $LOCK_TEMPLATE_NAME -n $NETWORK --walletdb $WALLET

Sync the wallet​

To sync the wallet run the following command:

brambl-cli wallet sync --template-name $LOCK_TEMPLATE_NAME --fellowship-name $FELLOWSHIP_NAME --walletdb $WALLET -n $NETWORK -h $HOST --port $PORT --keyfile $KEYFILE -w $PASSWORD

This will sync the wallet for the fellowship $FELLOWSHIP_NAME and template $LOCK_TEMPLATE_NAME with the bifrost node running on $HOST on port $PORT. The keyfile $KEYFILE is used to derive keys. The password for the wallet is $PASSWORD.

The procedure for the sync is the following:

  • we first derive the next address for the fellowship and template
  • we query the node to see if the UTXOs in that address are spent
  • if the UTXOs are spent, then we derive the next address and repeat the process
