btcd is a full-node bitcoin implementation written in Go.
The default options are sane for most users. This means btcd will work 'out of
the box' for most users. However, there are also a wide variety of flags that
can be used to control it.
The following section provides a usage overview which enumerates the flags. An
interesting point to note is that the long form of all of these options
(except -C) can be specified in a configuration file that is automatically
parsed when btcd starts up. By default, the configuration file is located at
~/.btcd/btcd.conf on POSIX-style operating systems and %APPDATA%\btcd\btcd.conf
on Windows. The -C (--configfile) flag, as shown below, can be used to override
this location.
Usage:
btcd [OPTIONS]
The flags are:
-h, --help Show this help message
-V, --version Display version information and exit
-C, --configfile= Path to configuration file
-b, --datadir= Directory to store data
-a, --addpeer= Add a peer to connect with at startup
--connect= Connect only to the specified peers at startup
--nolisten Disable listening for incoming connections -- NOTE:
Listening is automatically disabled if the --connect
option is used or if the --proxy option is used without
the --tor option
-p, --port= Listen for connections on this port (default: 8333,
testnet: 18333)
--maxpeers= Max number of inbound and outbound peers
--banduration= How long to ban misbehaving peers. Valid time units are
{s, m, h}. Minimum 1 second
-u, --rpcuser= Username for RPC connections
-P, --rpcpass= Password for RPC connections
-r, --rpcport= Listen for JSON/RPC messages on this port
--norpc Disable built-in RPC server -- NOTE: The RPC server is
disabled by default if no rpcuser/rpcpass is specified
--nodnsseed Disable DNS seeding for peers
--proxy= Connect via SOCKS5 proxy (eg. 127.0.0.1:9050)
--proxyuser= Username for proxy server
--proxypass= Password for proxy server
--tor Specifies the proxy server used is a Tor node
--testnet Use the test network
--regtest Use the regression test network
--nocheckpoints Disable built-in checkpoints. Don't do this unless you
know what you're doing
--dbtype= Database backend to use for the Block Chain
--profile= Enable HTTP profiling on given port -- NOTE port must be
between 1024 and 65536
-d, --debuglevel= Logging level {trace, debug, info, warn, error,
critical}
