regen keys add
Add an encrypted private key (either newly generated or recovered), encrypt it, and save to [name] file
Synopsis
Derive a new private key and encrypt to disk. Optionally specify a BIP39 mnemonic, a BIP39 passphrase to further secure the mnemonic, and a bip32 HD path to derive a specific account. The key will be stored under the given name and encrypted with the given password. The only input that is required is the encryption password.
If run with -i, it will prompt the user for BIP44 path, BIP39 mnemonic, and passphrase. The flag --recover allows one to recover a key from a seed passphrase. If run with --dry-run, a key would be generated (or recovered) but not stored to the local keystore. Use the --pubkey flag to add arbitrary public keys to the keystore for constructing multisig transactions.
You can create and store a multisig key by passing the list of key names stored in a keyring and the minimum number of signatures required through --multisig-threshold. The keys are sorted by address, unless the flag --nosort is set. Example:
keys add mymultisig --multisig "keyname1,keyname2,keyname3" --multisig-threshold 2
regen keys add [name] [flags]
Options
--account uint32 Account number for HD derivation (less than equal 2147483647)
--algo string Key signing algorithm to generate keys for (default "secp256k1")
--coin-type uint32 coin type number for HD derivation (default 118)
--dry-run Perform action, but don't add key to local keystore
--hd-path string Manual HD Path derivation (overrides BIP44 config)
-h, --help help for add
--index uint32 Address index number for HD derivation (less than equal 2147483647)
-i, --interactive Interactively prompt user for BIP39 passphrase and mnemonic
--ledger Store a local reference to a private key on a Ledger device
--multisig strings List of key names stored in keyring to construct a public legacy multisig key
--multisig-threshold int K out of N required signatures. For use in conjunction with --multisig (default 1)
--no-backup Don't print out seed phrase (if others are watching the terminal)
--nosort Keys passed to --multisig are taken in the order they're supplied
--pubkey string Parse a public key in JSON format and saves key info to [name] file.
--recover Provide seed phrase to recover existing key instead of creating
Options inherited from parent commands
--home string The application home directory (default "/opt/buildhome/.regen")
--keyring-backend string Select keyring's backend (os|file|test) (default "os")
--keyring-dir string The client Keyring directory; if omitted, the default 'home' directory will be used
--output string Output format (text|json) (default "text")
