# Swap CLI
|
||
|
|
||
|
The CLI defaults to **mainnet** (from version 0.6.0 onwards).
|
||
|
For testing and to familiarise yourself with the tool, we recommend you to try it on testnet first.
|
||
|
To do that, pass the `--testnet` flag with the actual command:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```shell
|
||
|
swap --testnet <SUBCOMMAND>
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
The two main commands of the CLI are:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- `buy-xmr`: for swapping BTC to XMR with a particular seller
|
||
|
- `list-sellers`: for discovering available sellers through a rendezvous point
|
||
|
|
||
|
Running `swap --help` gives us roughly the following output:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
swap 0.8.0

## Swapping BTC for XMR
|
||
|
|
||
|
Running `swap buy-xmr --help` gives us roughly the following output:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
swap-buy-xmr 0.8.0
|
||
|
Start a BTC for XMR swap
|
||
|
|
||
|
USAGE:
|
||
|
swap buy-xmr [FLAGS] [OPTIONS] --change-address <bitcoin-change-address> --receive-address <monero-receive-address> --seller <seller>
|
||
|
|
||
|
FLAGS:
|
||
|
-h, --help Prints help information
|
||
|
--testnet Swap on testnet and assume testnet defaults for data-dir and the blockchain related parameters
|
||
|
-V, --version Prints version information
|
||
|
|
||
|
OPTIONS:
|
||
|
--change-address <bitcoin-change-address> The bitcoin address where any form of change or excess funds should be sent to
|
||
|
--receive-address <monero-receive-address> The monero address where you would like to receive monero
|
||
|
--seller <seller> The seller's address. Must include a peer ID part, i.e. `/p2p/`
|
||
|
|
||
|
--electrum-rpc <bitcoin-electrum-rpc-url> Provide the Bitcoin Electrum RPC URL
|
||
|
--bitcoin-target-block <bitcoin-target-block> Estimate Bitcoin fees such that transactions are confirmed within the specified number of blocks
|
||
|
--monero-daemon-address <monero-daemon-address> Specify to connect to a monero daemon of your choice: <host>:<port>
|
||
|
--tor-socks5-port <tor-socks5-port> Your local Tor socks5 proxy port [default: 9050]
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
This command has three core options:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- `--change-address`: A Bitcoin address you control. Will be used for refunds of any kind.
|
||
|
- `--receive-address`: A Monero address you control. This is where you will receive the Monero after the swap.
|
||
|
- `--seller`: The multiaddress of the seller you want to swap with.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Discovering sellers
|
||
|
|
||
|
Running `swap list-sellers --help` gives us roughly the following output:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
swap-list-sellers 0.8.0
|
||
|
Discover and list sellers (i.e. ASB providers)
|
||
|
|
||
|
USAGE:
|
||
|
swap list-sellers [FLAGS] [OPTIONS]
|
||
|
|
||
|
FLAGS:
|
||
|
-h, --help Prints help information
|
||
|
--testnet Swap on testnet and assume testnet defaults for data-dir and the blockchain related parameters
|
||
|
-V, --version Prints version information
|
||
|
|
||
|
OPTIONS:
|
||
|
--rendezvous-point <rendezvous-point> Address of the rendezvous point you want to use to discover ASBs [default: /dnsaddr/rendezvous.coblox.tech/p2p/12D3KooWQUt9DkNZxEn2R5ymJzWj15MpG6mTW84kyd8vDaRZi46o]
|
||
|
--tor-socks5-port <tor-socks5-port> Your local Tor socks5 proxy port [default: 9050]
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
This command only takes optional parameters and can be run as-is:
|
||
|
|
||
|
Running `swap --testnet list-sellers` will give you something like:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|

## Automating discover and swapping
|
||
|
|
||
|
The `buy-xmr` and `list-sellers` command have been designed to be composed.
|
||
|
[This script](./discover_and_take.sh) is example of what can be done.
|
||
|
Deciding on the seller to use is non-trivial to automate which is why it is not implemented as part of the tool.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Tor
|
||
|
|
||
|
By default, the CLI will look for Tor at the default socks port `9050` and automatically route all traffic with a seller through Tor.
|
||
|
This allows swapping with sellers that are only reachable with an onion address.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Disclaimer:
|
||
|
Communication with public blockchain explorers (Electrum, public XMR nodes) currently goes through clearnet.
|
||
|
For complete anonymity it is recommended to run your own blockchain nodes.
|
||
|
Use `swap buy-xmr --help` to see configuration options.
