Account management - intended usage

Each node handles one account.

The following assumes that the node exposes at address 127.0.0.1 the following ports:

• User API external HTTP endpoint: 3013
• User API internal HTTP endpoint: 3113

Retrieve beneficiary public key

Retrieve the beneficiary public key of your node:

curl http://127.0.0.1:3113/v2/debug/accounts/beneficiary

You shall read output like the following:

{"pub_key":"ak_N1WLMewMQPUyQBdEhXRSYee84RQNKJrECwbbseMkNsZhv1X"}

Retrieve balance

Retrieve balance for given public key (replace the public key in the command):

curl -G 'http://127.0.0.1:3013/v2/accounts/ak_N1WLMewMQPUyQBdEhXRSYee84RQNKJrECwbbseMkNsZhv1X'

You shall read output like the following...

{"balance":80, "id":"ak_N1WLMewMQPUyQBdEhXRSYee84RQNKJrECwbbseMkNsZhv1X", "nonce":0}

... or - if you do not have any coins yet e.g. because you have not yet mined a block successfully - the following:

{"reason":"Account not found"}
