Interact with the Tezos blockchain. More information: https://tezos.gitlab.io/introduction/howtouse.html#client.

• Configure the client with a connection to a Tezos RPC node such as https://rpc.ghostnet.teztnets.com:

octez-client -E {{endpoint}} config update

• Create an account and assign a local alias to it:

octez-client gen keys {{alias}}

• Get the balance of an account by alias or address:

octez-client get balance for {{alias_or_address}}

• Transfer tez to a different account:

octez-client transfer {{5}} from {{alias|address}} to {{alias|address}}

• Originate (deploy) a smart contract, assign it a local alias, and set its initial storage as a Michelson-encoded value:

octez-client originate contract {{alias}} transferring {{0}} from {{alias|address}} running {{path/to/source_file.tz}} --init "{{initial_storage}}" --burn_cap {{1}}

• Call a smart contract by its alias or address and pass a Michelson-encoded parameter:

octez-client transfer {{0}} from {{alias|address}} to {{contract}} --entrypoint "{{entrypoint}}" --arg "{{parameter}}" --burn-cap {{1}}
