🌸 NAME 🌸

no cap, that's the whole job description. it manipulates proof of work files. iconic behavior honestly πŸ‘‘


πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

gnunet-scrypt [options]

that's it. that's the whole invocation. just the command and then whatever options you're feeling ✨


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

okay so gnunet-scrypt is a command line tool to manipulate GNUnet proof of work files. fr fr that's the vibe β€” it's the little utility that handles the proof of work file side of GNUnet for you, and it lives in your terminal like the main character it is πŸ’…


πŸ’œ OPTIONS πŸ’œ

here's where it gets juicy. every single flag, no skips, we're not doing that here πŸ“

  • -b BITS, --bits=BITS β€” Number of bits to require for the proof of work. yes, more bits = more work, that's the whole point bestie 😭
  • -c FILENAME, --config=FILENAME β€” Use the configuration file FILENAME. it's giving "tell me where your config lives" πŸŽ€
  • -h, --help β€” Print short help on options. the "help me i'm baby" flag, we love her πŸ™ˆ
  • -k FILE, --keyfile=FILE β€” File with private key, otherwise default is used. so if you don't pass this, the default just gets used, no drama πŸ’–
  • -L LOGLEVEL, --loglevel=LOGLEVEL β€” Use LOGLEVEL for logging. Valid values are DEBUG, INFO, WARNING and ERROR. pick your volume level bestie, from "tell me everything" to "only scream if it's bad" πŸ”₯
  • -l LOGFILE, --logfile=LOGFILE β€” Configure logging to write logs to LOGFILE. so the receipts go in a file instead of all over your terminal ✨
  • -o FILE, --outfile=FILE β€” File with proof of work, otherwise default is used. same deal as the keyfile β€” no flag, default it is πŸ¦‹
  • -t TIME, --timeout=TIME β€” Time to wait between calculations. yes, the tool gets a lil breather between rounds. self care, but for a process πŸ’…
  • -v, --version β€” Print GNUnet version number. check what era of GNUnet you're living in πŸ‘‘
