Key Management Overview
sagacli
stores and manages your key pairs. You can either create a new key or import your existing key(s).These keys may be in any format as long as the format is supported by the Tendermint crypto library. It can be used by light-clients, full nodes, or any other application that needs to sign with a private key.
The keyring supports the following backends:
os | Uses the operating system's default credentials store. |
file | Uses encrypted file-based keystore within the app's configuration directory. This keyring will request a password each time it is accessed, which may occur multiple times in a single command resulting in repeated password prompts. |
kwallet | Uses KDE Wallet Manager as a credentials management application. |
pass | Uses the pass command line utility to store and retrieve keys. |
test | Stores keys insecurely to disk. It does not prompt for a password to be unlocked and it should be use only for testing purposes. |
