docker run --rm aleo-testnet2-tools tool sign -p $(cat ~/.aleo/key) -m "hello, world!"

Commands

All commands, when run with --json (eg. cargo run -q -- --json) will output as JSON.

from-key - Derive addresses from key

# Input the private key as plaintext
$ cargo run -q from-key APrivateKey...
testnet2 address: aleo1...
mainnet address: aleo1...

from-key-file - Derive addresses from key file

# Input the private key from a file
$ cargo run -q from-key-file ./path/to/testnet2.key
testnet2 address: aleo1...
mainnet address: aleo1...

from-sig - Derive addresses from a signature

$ cargo run -q from-sig sign1..."
testnet2 address: aleo1...

sign - Sign a message with a Testnet2 private key

# Sign a message from a private key file
$ cargo run -q sign -f ./path/to/testnet2.key -m "my message"
sign1...

# Sign a message from a plaintext private key
$ cargo run -q sign -p APrivate1... -m "my message"
sign1...

verify - Verify a message signed with a Testnet2 private key

# Sign a message from a private key file
$ cargo run -q verify -a aleo1... -m "signed message" -s sign1...
true # (or false)
