Authentication

authenticator

Run an authentication endpoint for the set of names owned by the given backup phrase.  Send applications the given Gaia hub URL on sign-in, so the application will use it to read/write user data.

You can supply your encrypted backup phrase instead of the raw backup phrase.  If so, then you will be prompted for your password before any authentication takes place.

Example:

    export BACKUP_PHRASE="oak indicate inside poet please share dinner monitor glow hire source perfect"
    export APP_GAIA_HUB="https://1.2.3.4"
    export PROFILE_GAIA_HUB="https://hub.blockstack.org"
    stx authenticator "$APP_GAIA_HUB" "$BACKUP_PHRASE" "$PROFILE_GAIA_HUB" 8888
    Press Ctrl+C to exit
    Authentication server started on 8888

Account Management

balance

Query the balance of an account.  Returns the balances of each kind of token that the account owns.  The balances will be in the *smallest possible units* of the token (i.e. satoshis for BTC, microStacks for Stacks, etc.).

Example:
    // -t for testnet address, for mainnet omit -t option
    stx -t balance ST3PWZ5M026785YW8YKKEH316DYPE4AC7NNTD9ADN
    {
      "balance": "499986820",
      "locked": "0",
      "unlock_height": 0,
      "nonce": 2
    }

can_stack

Check if specified account can stack a number of Stacks tokens for given number of cycles.

Example:
    // -t for testnet address, for mainnet omit -t option
    stx -t can_stack 100000000000 3 mvuYDknzDtPgGqm2GnbAbmGMLwiyW3AwFP ST3XKKN4RPV69NN1PHFDNX3TYKXT7XPC4N8KC1ARH

send_tokens

Send a particular type of tokens to the given `ADDRESS`.  Right now, only supported `TOKEN-TYPE` is `STACKS`.  Optionally include a memo string (`MEMO`) up to 34 characters long.

If the command succeeds, it prints out a transaction ID.  You can track the confirmations on the transaction via the `get_confirmations` command.  Once the transaction has 7 confirmations, the Blockstack peer network will have processed it, and your payment key balance and recipient balance will be updated.

Example:

    # check balances of sender and recipient before sending.
    # address of the key below is SP2SC16ASH76GX549PT7J5WQZA4GHMFBKYMBQFF9V
    # Use -t option for testnet address
    export PAYMENT="bfeffdf57f29b0cc1fab9ea197bb1413da2561fe4b83e962c7f02fbbe2b1cd5401"
    stx balance SP2SC16ASH76GX549PT7J5WQZA4GHMFBKYMBQFF9V

      }

get_address

Get the address of a private key or multisig private key bundle.  Gives the BTC and STACKS addresses

Example:

    stx get_address f5185b9ca93bdcb5753fded3b097dab8547a8b47d2be578412d0687a9a0184cb01
    {
      "BTC": "1JFhWyVPpZQjbPcXFtpGtTmU22u4fhBVmq",
      "STACKS": "SP2YM3J4KQK09V670TD6ZZ1XYNYCNGCWCVVKSDFWQ"
    }
    stx get_address 1,f5185b9ca93bdcb5753fded3b097dab8547a8b47d2be578412d0687a9a0184cb01,ff2ff4f4e7f8a1979ffad4fc869def1657fd5d48fc9cf40c1924725ead60942c01

      "STACKS": "SMQWZ30EXVG6XEC1K4QTDP16C1CAWSK1JSWMS0QN"
    }

get_app_keys

Get the application private key from a 12-word backup phrase and a name or ID-address.  This is the private key used to sign data in Gaia, and its address is the Gaia bucket address.  If you provide your encrypted backup phrase, you will be asked to decrypt it.  If you provide a name instead of an ID-address, its ID-address will be queried automatically (note that this means that the name must already be registered).

NOTE: This command does NOT verify whether or not the name or ID-address was created by the backup phrase. You should do this yourself via the `get_owner_keys` command if you are not sure.

There are two derivation paths emitted by this command:  a `keyInfo` path and a `legacyKeyInfo`path.  You should use the one that matches the Gaia hub read URL's address, if you have already signed in before.  If not, then you should use the `keyInfo` path when possible.

Example:
    // Specify -t for testnet
    export BACKUP_PHRASE="one race buffalo dynamic icon drip width lake extra forest fee kit"
    stx get_app_keys "$BACKUP_PHRASE" example.id.blockstack https://my.cool.dapp
    {
      "keyInfo": {
        "privateKey": "TODO",
        "address": "TODO"
      },
      "legacyKeyInfo": {
        "privateKey": "90f9ec4e13fb9a00243b4c1510075157229bda73076c7c721208c2edca28ea8b",
        "address": "1Lr8ggSgdmfcb4764woYutUfFqQMjEoKHc"
      },
      "ownerKeyIndex": 0
    }

get_owner_keys

Get the list of owner private keys and ID-addresses from a 12-word backup phrase.  Pass non-zero values for INDEX to generate the sequence of ID-addresses that can be used to own Blockstack IDs.  If you provide an encrypted 12-word backup phrase, you will be asked for your password to decrypt it.

Example:

    # get the first 3 owner keys and addresses for a backup phrase
    // Specify -t for testnet
    export BACKUP_PHRASE="soap fog wealth upon actual blossom neither timber phone exile monkey vocal"
    stx get_owner_keys "$BACKUP_PHRASE" 3
    [
      {

Gaia

gaia_dump_bucket

Download the contents of a Gaia hub bucket to a given directory.  The `GAIA_HUB` argument must correspond to the *write* endpoint of the Gaia hub -- that is, you should be able to fetch `$GAIA_HUB/hub_info`.  If `DUMP_DIR` does not exist, it will be created.

Example:

    export BACKUP_PHRASE="section amount spend resemble spray verify night immune tattoo best emotion parrot
    stx gaia_dump_bucket hello.id.blockstack https://sample.app https://hub.blockstack.org "$BACKUP_PHRASE" ./backups
    Download 3 files...
    Download hello_world to ./backups/hello_world
    Download dir/format to ./backups/dir\x2fformat
    Download /.dotfile to ./backups/\x2f.dotfile
    3

gaia_getfile

Get a file from another user's Gaia hub.  Prints the file data to stdout.  If you want to read an encrypted file, and/or verify a signed file, then you must pass an app private key, and pass 1 for `DECRYPT` and/or `VERIFY`.  If the file is encrypted, and you do not pass an app private key, then this command downloads the ciphertext.  If the file is signed, and you want to download its data and its signature, then you must run this command twice -- once to get the file contents at `FILENAME`, and once to get the signature (whose name will be `FILENAME`.sig).

Gaia is a key-value store, so it does not have any built-in notion of directories.  However, most underlying storage systems do -- directory separators in the name of a file in Gaia may be internally treated as first-class directories (it depends on the Gaia hub's driver).As such, repeated directory separators will be treated as a single directory separator by this command.  For example, the file name `a/b.txt`, `/a/b.txt`, and `///a////b.txt` will be treated as identical.

Example without encryption:

    # Get an unencrypted, unsigned file
    stx gaia_getfile ryan.id http://public.ykliao.com statuses.json
    [{"id":0,"text":"Hello, Blockstack!","created_at":1515786983492}]

Example with encryption:

    # Get an encrypted file without decrypting
    stx gaia_getfile ryan.id https://app.graphitedocs.com documentscollection.json
        # Get an encrypted file, and decrypt it

gaia_putfile

Put a file into a given Gaia hub, authenticating with the given app private key.  Optionally encrypt and/or sign the data with the given app private key.  If the file is successfully stored, this command prints out the URLs at which it can be fetched.

Gaia is a key-value store, so it does not have any built-in notion of directories.  However, most underlying storage systems do -- directory separators in the name of a file in Gaia may be internally treated as first-class directories (it depends on the Gaia hub's driver).As such, repeated directory separators will be treated as a single directory separator by this command.  For example, the file name `a/b.txt`, `/a/b.txt`, and `///a////b.txt` will be treated as identical.

Example:

    # Store 4 versions of a file: plaintext, encrypted, signed, and encrypted+signed
    # Tip: You can obtain the app key with the get_app_keys command.
    export APP_KEY="3ac770e8c3d88b1003bf4a0a148ceb920a6172bdade8e0325a1ed1480ab4fb19"
    stx gaia_putfile https://hub.blockstack.org "$APP_KEY" /path/to/file.txt file.txt
    {
       "urls": "https://gaia.blockstack.org/hub/19KAzYp4kSKozeAGMUsnuqkEGdgQQLEvwo/file.txt"
    }
    stx gaia_putfile https://hub.blockstack.org "$APP_KEY" /path/to/file.txt file-encrypted.txt 1
    {
       "urls": "https://gaia.blockstack.org/hub/19KAzYp4kSKozeAGMUsnuqkEGdgQQLEvwo/file-encrypted.txt"
    }
    stx gaia_putfile https://hub.blockstack.org "$APP_KEY" /path/to/file.txt file-signed.txt 0 1
    {
       "urls": "https://gaia.blockstack.org/hub/19KAzYp4kSKozeAGMUsnuqkEGdgQQLEvwo/file-signed.txt"
    }
    stx gaia_putfile https://hub.blockstack.org "$APP_KEY" /path/to/file.txt file-encrypted-signed.txt 1 1

    }

gaia_deletefile

Delete a file in a Gaia hub, as well as its signature metadata (which is stored in a separate file).
Example:

    # Tip: You can obtain the app key with the get_app_keys command.
    export APP_KEY="3ac770e8c3d88b1003bf4a0a148ceb920a6172bdade8e0325a1ed1480ab4fb19"
    stx gaia_deletefile https://hub.blockstack.org "$APP_KEY" file.txt false
    ok

gaia_listfiles

List all the files in a Gaia hub bucket.  You must have the private key for the bucket in order to list its contents.  The command prints each file name on its own line, and when finished, it prints the number of files listed.

Example:

    # Tip: You can obtain the app key with the get_app_keys command.
    export APP_KEY="3ac770e8c3d88b1003bf4a0a148ceb920a6172bdade8e0325a1ed1480ab4fb19"
    stx gaia_listfiles "https://hub.blockstack.org" "$APP_KEY"
    hello_world
    dir/format
    /.dotfile
    3

gaia_restore_bucket

Upload the contents of a previously-dumped Gaia bucket to a new Gaia hub.  The `GAIA_HUB` argument must correspond to the *write* endpoint of the Gaia hub -- that is, you should be able to fetch `$GAIA_HUB/hub_info`.  `DUMP_DIR` must contain the file contents created by a previous successful run of the gaia_dump_bucket command, and both `NAME_OR_ID_ADDRESS` and `APP_ORIGIN` must be the same as they were when it was run.

Example:

    export BACKUP_PHRASE="section amount spend resemble spray verify night immune tattoo best emotion parrot"
    stx gaia_restore_bucket hello.id.blockstack https://sample.app https://new.gaia.hub "$BACKUP_PHRASE" ./backups
    Uploaded ./backups/hello_world to https://new.gaia.hub/hub/1Lr8ggSgdmfcb4764woYutUfFqQMjEoKHc/hello_world
    Uploaded ./backups/dir\x2fformat to https://new.gaia.hub/hub/1Lr8ggSgdmfcb4764woYutUfFqQMjEoKHc/dir/format
    Uploaded ./backups/\x2f.dotfile to https://new.gaia.hub/hub/1Lr8ggSgdmfcb4764woYutUfFqQMjEoKHc//.dotfile

gaia_sethub

Set the Gaia hub for a particular application for a Blockstack ID.  If the command succeeds, the URLs to your updated profile will be printed and your profile will contain an entry in its "apps" key that links the given `APP_ORIGIN` to the given `APP_GAIA_HUB`.

NOTE: Both `OWNER_GAIA_HUB` and `APP_GAIA_HUB` must be the *write* endpoints of their respective Gaia hubs.

Your 12-word phrase (in either raw or encrypted form) is required to re-sign and store your profile and to generate an app-specific key and Gaia bucket.  If you give the encrypted backup phrase, you will be prompted for a password.

Example:

    export BACKUP_PHRASE="soap fog wealth upon actual blossom neither timber phone exile monkey vocal"
    stx gaia_sethub hello_world.id https://hub.blockstack.org https://my.cool.app https://my.app.gaia.hub "$BACKUP_PHRASE"
    {
      "profileUrls": {
        "error": null,
        "dataUrls": [
          "https://gaia.blockstack.org/hub/1ArdkA2oLaKnbNbLccBaFhEV4pYju8hJ82/profile.json"
        ]
      }
    }

    # You can check the new apps entry with curl and jq as follows:
    curl -sL https://gaia.blockstack.org/hub/1ArdkA2oLaKnbNbLccBaFhEV4pYju8hJ82/profile.json | jq ".[0].decodedToken.payload.claim.apps"
    {
      "https://my.cool.app": "https://my.app.gaia.hub/hub/1EqzyQLJ15KG1WQmi5cf1HtmSeqS1Wb8tY/"
    }

Profiles

profile_sign

Sign a profile on disk with a given owner private key.  Print out the signed profile JWT.

Example:

    # Tip: you can get the owner key from your 12-word backup phrase using the get_owner_keys command
    stx profile_sign /path/to/profile.json 0ffd299af9c257173be8486ef54a4dd1373407d0629ca25ca68ff24a76be09fb01

profile_store

Store a profile on disk to a Gaia hub.  `USER_ID` can be either a Blockstack ID or an ID-address.  The `GAIA_HUB` argument must be the *write* endpoint for the user's Gaia hub (e.g. https://hub.blockstack.org).  You can verify this by ensuring that you can run `curl "$GAIA_HUB/hub_info"` successfully.

profile_verify

Verify a JWT encoding a profile on disk using an ID-address.  Prints out the contained profile on success.

Example:

    # get the raw profile JWT
    curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jcnelson/profile/master/judecn.id > /tmp/judecn.id.jwt
    # Tip: you can get the ID-address for a name with the "whois" command
    stx profile_verify /tmp/judecn.id.jwt ID-16EMaNw3pkn3v6f2BgnSSs53zAKH4Q8YJg
