Rosetta CLI
CLI to validate the correctness of Rosetta API implementations
The rosetta-cli
tool is used by developers to test the correctness of their Rosetta API implementations. The CLI also provides the ability to look up block contents and account balances.
Installation
To download a binary for the latest release, run:
curl -sSfL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/coinbase/rosetta-cli/master/scripts/install.sh | sh -s
The binary will be installed inside the ./bin
directory (relative to the directory where you ran the installation command).
Downloading binaries from the Github UI will cause permission errors on Mac.
Installing in a Custom Location
To download the binary into a specific directory, run:
curl -sSfL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/coinbase/rosetta-cli/master/scripts/install.sh | sh -s -- -b <relative directory>
Run via Docker
Running the following command will start a Docker container and present CLI for the Rosetta API.
docker run -it [image-name] [command]
Example: To validate that the Data API implementation is correct, running the following command will start a Docker container with a data directory at <working directory>
.
docker run -v "$(pwd):/data" -it [image-name] check:data --configuration-file /data/config.json
Rosetta CLI comes with a handy key sign tool for local testing. Please refer to this README on how to use it.
Updates and Releases
We recommend that you continually update your installation to the latest release as soon as possible. The latest release notes are available in our Community board under the Release category.
You can also view releases and change log information in the Releases section of this repository.
Documentation
You can find the Rosetta API documentation at rosetta-api.org
For more information on the rosetta-cli tool, read our The rosetta-cli tool documentation.
For more information on how to test your implementation file with the rosetta-cli
tool, read our How to Test Your Rosetta Implementation documentation.
Our documentation is divided into the following sections:
Contributing
You may contribute to the rosetta-cli
project in various ways:
Read our Contributing documentation for more information.
While working on improvements to this repository, we recommend that you use these commands to check your code:
make deps
to install dependencies
make test
to run tests
make lint
to lint the source code (included generated code)
make release
to run one last check before opening a PR
make compile version=RELEASE_TAG
to generate binaries
If you are developing on both the rosetta-cli
and rosetta-sdk-go
repositories, use go.mod replace to reference local changes:
replace "github.com/coinbase/rosetta-sdk-go" v0.6.8 => "<PATH TO LOCAL rosetta-sdk-go>"
Release
- When we release a new rosetta-cli version, please update the version number to follow PR so that
rosetta-cli version
command can print the correct value.
- Create binaries and upload all the binaries in the new release tag (e.g. https://github.com/coinbase/rosetta-cli/releases/tag/v0.7.7)
- Ensure
$GOPATH/bin
is added to $PATH
- Run
make compile version=<New Version>
- All the binaries will be created in the
bin
folder and should have extension as tar.gz
and new version number
Helper/Handler
Many of the packages use a Helper/Handler
interface pattern to acquire required information or to send events to some client implementation. An example of this is in the reconciler
package where a Helper
is used to get the account balance and the Handler
is called to indicate whether the reconciliation of an account was successful.

pkg
logger // logic to write syncing information to stdout/files
processor // Helper/Handler implementations for reconciler, storage, and syncer
tester // test orchestrators
Troubleshooting
While running the check:data
or check:construction
option, if you get the following error:
dial tcp 127.0.0.1:8080: socket: too many open files: unable to sync to 1902533: unable to sync to 1902533
Please run the ulimit -n 10000
command to increase the max concurrent opened file limit.
Note: MacOS users, if you face ulimit: setrlimit failed: invalid argument
error while setting ulimit
, please run sudo launchctl limit maxfiles 10000 200000
before setting the ulimit
.
Reference Implementations
To help you with examples, we developed complete Rosetta API reference implementations for Bitcoin and Ethereum. Developers of Bitcoin-like or Ethereum-like blockchains may find it easier to fork these reference implementations than to write an implementation from scratch.
You can also find community implementations for a variety of blockchains in the rosetta-ecosystem repository, and in the ecosystem category of our community site.
