Keys and wallet

  1. Add a new key

    gaiad keys add $WALLET
  2. Recover a key

    gaiad keys add $WALLET --recover
  3. List keys

Validator

  1. Create a validator

    cat > $HOME/validator.json << EOF
    {
      "pubkey": $(gaiad comet show-validator),
      "amount": "1000000uatom",
      "moniker": "$MONIKER",
      "identity": "",
      "website": "",
      "security": "",

      "commission-max-change-rate": "0.05",
      "min-self-delegation": "1"
    }
    EOF
    gaiad tx staking create-validator $HOME/validator.json --from $WALLET --chain-id $GAIA_CHAIN_ID --gas auto --gas-adjustment 1.5 --gas-prices 0.005uatom -y
  2. Edit the validator

    gaiad tx staking edit-validator --new-moniker "$MONIKER" --identity "" --website "" --details "" --from $WALLET --chain-id $GAIA_CHAIN_ID --gas auto --gas-adjustment 1.5 --gas-prices 0.005uatom -y
  3. Unjail

    gaiad tx slashing unjail --from $WALLET --chain-id $GAIA_CHAIN_ID --gas auto --gas-adjustment 1.5 --gas-prices 0.005uatom -y
  4. Validator details

    gaiad q staking validator $(gaiad keys show $WALLET --bech val -a)

Tokens

  1. Withdraw all rewards

    gaiad tx distribution withdraw-all-rewards --from $WALLET --chain-id $GAIA_CHAIN_ID --gas auto --gas-adjustment 1.5 --gas-prices 0.005uatom -y

  4. Redelegate

    gaiad tx staking redelegate $(gaiad keys show $WALLET --bech val -a) <TO_VALOPER> 1000000uatom --from $WALLET --chain-id $GAIA_CHAIN_ID --gas auto --gas-adjustment 1.5 --gas-prices 0.005uatom -y

  3. Vote

    gaiad tx gov vote <ID> yes --from $WALLET --chain-id $GAIA_CHAIN_ID --gas auto --gas-adjustment 1.5 --gas-prices 0.005uatom -y
    # yes | no | abstain | no_with_veto

Maintenance

  1. Node status

    gaiad status 2>&1 | jq
  2. Node peer address

    echo $(gaiad comet show-node-id)@$(wget -qO- eth0.me):$GAIA_PORT656
  3. Live peers

    curl -s localhost:$GAIA_PORT657/net_info | jq -r '.result.peers[] | "\(.node_info.id)@\(.remote_ip):\(.node_info.listen_addr | split(":") | last)"' | paste -sd,
  4. Check the validator key

    [[ $(gaiad q staking validator $(gaiad keys show $WALLET --bech val -a) -o json | jq -r .validator.consensus_pubkey.value) = $(gaiad comet show-validator | jq -r .key) ]] && echo "match" || echo "MISMATCH"
  5. Reset chain data

    gaiad comet unsafe-reset-all --keep-addr-book --home $HOME/.gaia
  6. Remove the node

    sudo systemctl stop gaiad
    sudo systemctl disable gaiad
    sudo rm /etc/systemd/system/gaiad.service
    sudo systemctl daemon-reload
    rm -rf $HOME/.gaia $(which gaiad)

Service

  1. Service status

    sudo systemctl status gaiad
  2. Follow logs

    sudo journalctl -fu gaiad -o cat
  3. Restart

    sudo systemctl restart gaiad
  4. Stop
