PAXI Cheat Sheet and Key Management

This guide provides essential commands for managing wallets, nodes, and validators on the PAXI network. Make sure the environment variables mentioned at the end are correctly configured before using these commands.

1. Key Management

Create a New Wallet

paxid keys add $WALLET

Keep the generated seed phrase safe. It is the only way to recover your wallet.

Recover Wallet from Seed Phrase

paxid keys add $WALLET --recover

You will be prompted to enter your seed phrase.

List Wallets

paxid keys list

Show Wallet Details

paxid keys show $WALLET

Delete Wallet

paxid keys delete $WALLET

2. Wallet Operations

Check Balance

paxid query bank balances $(paxid keys show $WALLET -a)

Send Tokens

paxid tx bank send $(paxid keys show $WALLET -a) <receiver_wallet_address> <amount><denom> --chain-id $PAXI_CHAIN_ID --gas-prices 0.0001upaxi --gas-adjustment 1.5 --gas auto -y

Example:

paxid tx bank send $(paxid keys show $WALLET -a) PAXI1...yyy 1000000upaxi --chain-id $PAXI_CHAIN_ID --gas-prices 0.0001upaxi --gas-adjustment 1.5 --gas auto -y

Replace <amount> with the number of tokens and <denom> with the token denomination (e.g., upaxi).

3. Validator Management

Ensure you have enough upaxi tokens for self-delegation and transaction fees before creating a validator.

4. Node Status & Info

Check Sync Status

paxid status 2>&1 | jq .result.sync_info

Check Peer Info

paxid status 2>&1 | jq .result.sync_info.catching_up
paxid status 2>&1 | jq .result.node_info.listen_addr

Show Node ID

paxid tendermint show-node-id

Restart Node

sudo systemctl restart paxid

View Node Logs

sudo journalctl -u paxid -fo cat

5. Governance

List Proposals

paxid query gov proposals

View Proposal Details

paxid query gov proposal <proposal_id>

Vote on Proposal

paxid tx gov vote <proposal_id> <yes|no|no_with_veto|abstain> \
--chain-id $PAXI_CHAIN_ID \
--gas-prices 0.0001upaxi \

6. Environment Variables

Make sure to set these in your ~/.bash_profile or equivalent shell config:

export WALLET="wallet"
export MONIKER="YourMoniker"
export PAXI_ID="PAXI-mainnet-1"
export PAXI_PORT="13"

Apply the changes with:

source ~/.bash_profile
