NEAR CLI (command line interface)

Gitpod Ready-to-Code

NEAR CLI is a Node.js application that relies on near-api-js to connect to and interact with the NEAR blockchain. Create accounts, access keys, sign & send transactions with this versatile command line interface tool.

Note: Node.js version 16+ is required to run NEAR CLI.

Setup

Installation

Make sure you have a current version of npm and NodeJS installed.

Mac and Linux

  1. Install npm and node using a package manager like nvm as sometimes there are issues using Ledger due to how OS X handles node packages related to USB devices. [click here]
  2. Ensure you have installed Node version 12 or above.
  3. Install near-cli globally by running:
npm install -g near-cli

Windows

For Windows users, we recommend using Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL).

  1. Install WSL [click here]
  2. Install npm [click here]
  3. Install Node.js [ click here ]
  4. Change npm default directory [ click here ]
    • This is to avoid any permission issues with WSL
  5. Open WSL and install near-cli globally by running:
npm install -g near-cli

Network selection

The default network for near-cli is testnet.

  • You can change the network by prepending an environment variable to your command.
NEAR_NETWORK=betanet near send ...
  • Alternatively, you can set up a global environment variable by running:
export NEAR_NETWORK=mainnet
  • All commands that interact with the network also allow to pass the --networkId option.
near send-near ... --networkId mainnet

Custom RPC server selection

You can set custom RPC server URL by setting this env variables:

NEAR_MAINNET_RPC
NEAR_TESTNET_RPC

Clear them in case you want to get back to the default RPC server.

Example:

export NEAR_TESTNET_RPC=<put_your_rpc_server_url_here>

Access Keys

All keys are stored locally at the root of your HOME directory:

  • ~/.near-credentials (MAC / Linux)
  • C:\Users\YOUR_ACCOUNT\.near-credentials (Windows)

Inside .near-credentials, access keys are organized in network subdirectories: testnet, and mainnet.

These network subdirectories contain .JSON objects with an:

  • account_id
  • private_key
  • public_key

near add-credentials <accountId>

Stores credentials (full-access-key) locally for an already existing account.

  • arguments: accountId
  • options: --seedPhrase or --secretKey

Examples:

near add-credentials example-acct.testnet --seedPhrase "antique attitude say evolve ring arrive hollow auto wide bronze usual unfold"

near add-key

Adds either a full access or function access key to a given account.

Note: You will use an existing full access key for the account you would like to add a new key to. (near login)

1) add a full access key

  • arguments: accountId publicKey

Example:

near add-key example-acct.testnet Cxg2wgFYrdLTEkMu6j5D6aEZqTb3kXbmJygS48ZKbo1S
Example Response

To see the transaction in the transaction explorer, please open this url in your browser
https://testnet.nearblocks.io/txns/EwU1ooEvkR42HvGoJHu5ou3xLYT3JcgQwFV3fAwevGJg

2) add a function call key

  • arguments: accountId publicKey --contract-id
  • options: --method-names --allowance

accountId is the account you are adding the key to

--contract-id is the contract you are allowing methods to be called on

--method-names are optional and if omitted, all methods of the --contract-id can be called.

--allowance is the amount of Ⓝ the key is allowed to spend on gas fees only (default: 0).

Note: Each transaction made with this key will have gas fees deducted from the initial allowance and once it runs out a new key must be issued.

Example:

near add-key example-acct.testnet GkMNfc92fwM1AmwH1MTjF4b7UZuceamsq96XPkHsQ9vi --contract-id example-contract.testnet --method-names example_method --allowance 30000000000
