Command-Line Options

Run WorldLand

WorldLand is primarily controlled using the command line. Start it using the worldland command and stop it by pressing Ctrl+C.

./worldland

With custom flags:

./worldland <flags>

You can configure WorldLand using command-line options (flags). WorldLand also has sub-commands that can invoke functions such as console or blockchain import/export.

Config File

As an alternative to passing the numerous flags to the worldland binary, you can also pass a configuration file:

./worldland <other flags> --config /path/to/your_config.toml

Generating a Config File

To get an idea of how the file should look, you can use the dumpconfig sub-command to export your existing configuration:

./worldland <other flags> dumpconfig >> config.toml

Example (Gwangju testnet):

./worldland -gwangju dumpconfig -datadir /home/worldland/gwangju >> config.toml

Command-Line Options Reference

A full list of command-line help is listed below. You can always get the same information from your own WorldLand instance by running:

./worldland -help
