Sui Client CLI

Learn how to set up, configure, and use the Sui Client Command Line Interface (CLI). You can use the CLI to experiment with Sui features using a command line interface.

Set up

The SUI Client CLI installs when you install Sui. See the Install Sui topic for prerequisites and installation instructions.

Using the Sui client

The Sui Client CLI supports the following commands:

Command Description
active-address Default address used for commands when none specified
active-env Default environment used for commands when none specified
addresses Obtain the Addresses managed by the client
call Call Move function
create-example-nft Create an example NFT
envs List all Sui environments
execute-signed-tx Execute a Signed Transaction. This is useful when the user prefers to sign elsewhere and use this command to execute
gas Obtain all gas objects owned by the address
help Print this message or the help of the given subcommand(s)
merge-coin Merge two coin objects into one coin
new-address Generate new address and keypair with keypair scheme flag {ed25519 or secp256k1} with optional derivation path, default to m/44'/784'/0'/0'/0' for ed25519 or m/54'/784'/0'/0/0 for secp256k1
new-env Add new Sui environment
object Get object info
objects Obtain all objects owned by the address
pay Pay SUI to recipients following specified amounts, with input coins. Length of recipients must be the same as that of amounts
pay_all_sui Pay all residual SUI coins to the recipient with input coins, after deducting the gas cost. The input coins also include the coin for gas payment, so no extra gas coin is required
pay_sui Pay SUI coins to recipients following following specified amounts, with input coins. Length of recipients must be the same as that of amounts. The input coins also include the coin for gas payment, so no extra gas coin is required
publish Publish Move modules
serialize-transfer-sui Serialize a transfer that can be signed. This is useful when user prefers to take the data to sign elsewhere
split-coin Split a coin object into multiple coins
switch Switch active address and network(e.g., devnet, local rpc server)
sync Synchronize client state with authorities
transfer Transfer object
transfer-sui Transfer SUI, and pay gas with the same SUI coin object. If amount is specified, transfers only the amount. If not specified, transfers the object.

Note: The clear, echo, env and exit commands exist only in the interactive shell.

Use sui client -h to see a list of supported commands.

Use sui help <command> to see more information on each command.

You can start the client in two modes: interactive shell or command line interface Configure Sui client.

Interactive shell

To start the interactive shell:

sui console

The console command looks for the client configuration file client.yaml in the ~/.sui/sui_config directory. But you can override this setting by providing a path to the directory where this file is stored:

sui console --config /workspace/config-files

The Sui interactive client console supports the following shell functionality:

  • Command history - use the history command to print the command history. You can also use Up, Down or Ctrl-P, Ctrl-N to display the previous or next in the history list. Use Ctrl-R to search the command history.
  • Tab completion - supported for all commands using Tab and Ctrl-I keys.
  • Environment variable substitution - the console substitutes input prefixed with $ with environment variables. Use the env command to print out the entire list of variables and use echo to preview the substitution without invoking any commands.

Command line mode

You can use the client without the interactive shell. This is useful if you want to pipe the output of the client to another application or invoke client commands using scripts.

USAGE:
    sui client [SUBCOMMAND]

For example, the following command returns the list of account addresses available on the platform:

sui client addresses

Active address

You can specify an active address or default address to use to execute commands.

Sui sets a default address to use for commands. It uses the active address for commands that require an address. To view the current active address, use the active-address command.

sui client active-address

The response to the request resembles the following:

0x562f07cf6369e8d22dbf226a5bfedc6300014837

To change the default address, use the switch command:

sui client switch --address 0x913cf36f370613ed131868ac6f9da2420166062e

The response resembles the following:

Active address switched to 0x913cf36f370613ed131868ac6f9da2420166062e

You can call the objects command with or without specifying an address. Sui uses the active address if you do not specify one.

sui client objects
                 Object ID                  |  Version   |                    Digest                    |   Owner Type    |               Object Type
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 0x66eaa38c8ea99673a92a076a00101ab9b3a06b55 |     0      | j8qLxVk/Bm9iMdhPf9b7HcIMQIAM+qCd8LfPAwKYrFo= |  AddressOwner   |      0x2::coin::Coin<0x2::sui::SUI>
sui client objects 0x913cf36f370613ed131868ac6f9da2420166062e
                 Object ID                  |  Version   |                    Digest                    |   Owner Type    |               Object Type
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 0x66eaa38c8ea99673a92a076a00101ab9b3a06b55 |     0      | j8qLxVk/Bm9iMdhPf9b7HcIMQIAM+qCd8LfPAwKYrFo= |  AddressOwner   |      0x2::coin::Coin<0x2::sui::SUI>

All subsequent commands that omit address use the new active address: 0x913cf36f370613ed131868ac6f9da2420166062e

If you call a command that uses a gas object that is not owned by the active address, Sui temporarily uses the address that owns the gas object for the transaction.

Paying For transactions with gas objects

All Sui transactions require a gas object for payment, as well as a budget. However, specifying the gas object can be cumbersome; so in the CLI, one is allowed to omit the gas object and leave the client to pick an object that meets the specified budget. This gas selection logic is currently rudimentary as it does not combine/split gas as needed but currently picks the first object it finds that meets the budget. Note that one can always specify their own gas if they want to manage the gas themselves.

⚠️ A gas object cannot be part of the transaction while also being used to pay for the transaction. For example, one cannot try to transfer gas object X while paying for the transaction with gas object X. The gas selection logic checks for this and rejects such cases.

To see how much gas is in an account, use the gas command. Note that this command uses the active-address, unless otherwise specified.

sui client gas

You can specify an address to see the amount of gas for that address instead of the active address.

sui client gas 0x562f07cf6369e8d22dbf226a5bfedc6300014837

Create new account addresses

Sui Client CLI includes 1 address by default. To add more, create new addresses for the client with the new-address command, or add existing accounts to the client.yaml.

Create a new account address

sui client new-address ed25519

You must specify the key scheme, either ed25519 or secp256k1.

Add existing accounts to client.yaml

To add existing account addresses to your client, such as from a previous installation, edit the client.yaml file and add the accounts section. You must also add key pair to the keystore file.

Restart the Sui console after you save the changes to the client.yaml file.

View objects an address owns

Use the objects command to view the objects an address owns.

sui client objects

To view the objects for a different address than the active address, specify the address to see objects for.

sui client objects 0x66af3898e7558b79e115ab61184a958497d1905a

To view more information about an object, use the object command.

    sui client object <ID>

The result shows some basic information about the object, the owner, version, ID, if the object is immutable and the type of the object.

To view the JSON representation of the object, include --json in the command.

    sui client object <ID> --json

Transfer objects

You can transfer mutable objects you own to another address using the command below

    sui client transfer [OPTIONS] --to <TO> --object-id <OBJECT_ID> --gas-budget <GAS_BUDGET>

OPTIONS:
        --coin-object-id <OBJECT_ID>
            Object to transfer, in 20 bytes Hex string

        --gas <GAS>
            ID of the gas object for gas payment, in 20 bytes Hex string If not provided, a gas
            object with at least gas_budget value will be selected

        --gas-budget <GAS_BUDGET>
            Gas budget for this transfer

    -h, --help
            Print help information

        --json
            Return command outputs in json format

        --to <TO>
            Recipient address

To transfer an object to a recipient, you need the recipient's address, the object ID of the object to transfer, and, optionally, the ID of the coin object for the transaction fee payment. If not specified, a coin that meets the budget is picked. Gas budget sets a cap for how much gas to spend. We are still finalizing our gas metering mechanisms. For now, just set something large enough.

sui client transfer --to 0xf456ebef195e4a231488df56b762ac90695be2dd --object-id 0x66eaa38c8ea99673a92a076a00101ab9b3a06b55 --gas-budget 100

Create an example NFT

You can add an example NFT to an address using the create-example-nft command. The command adds an NFT to the active address.

sui client create-example-nft

The command invokes the mint function in the devnet_nft module, which mints a Sui object with three attributes: name, description, and image URL with default values and transfers the object to your address. You can also provide custom values using the following instructions:

create-example-nft command usage:

    sui client create-example-nft [OPTIONS]

OPTIONS:
        --description <DESCRIPTION>    Description of the NFT
        --gas <GAS>                    ID of the gas object for gas payment, in 20 bytes Hex string
                                       If not provided, a gas object with at least gas_budget value
                                       will be selected
        --gas-budget <GAS_BUDGET>      Gas budget for this transfer
    -h, --help                         Print help information
        --json                         Return command outputs in json format
        --name <NAME>                  Name of the NFT
        --url <URL>                    Display url(e.g., an image url) of the NFT

Merge and split coin objects

You can merge coins to reduce the number of separate coin objects in an account, or split coins to create smaller coin objects to use for transfers or gas payments.

We can use the merge-coin command and split-coin command to consolidate or split coins, respectively.

Merge coins

    sui client merge-coin [OPTIONS] --primary-coin <PRIMARY_COIN> --coin-to-merge <COIN_TO_MERGE> --gas-budget <GAS_BUDGET>

OPTIONS:
        --coin-to-merge <COIN_TO_MERGE>
            Coin to be merged, in 20 bytes Hex string

        --gas <GAS>
            ID of the gas object for gas payment, in 20 bytes Hex string If not provided, a gas
            object with at least gas_budget value will be selected

        --gas-budget <GAS_BUDGET>
            Gas budget for this call

    -h, --help
            Print help information

        --json
            Return command outputs in json format

        --primary-coin <PRIMARY_COIN>
            Coin to merge into, in 20 bytes Hex string

You need at lease three coin objects to merge coins, two coins to merge and one to pay for gas payment. When you merge a coin, you specify maximum gas budget allowed for the merge transaction.

Use the following command to view the objects that the specified address owns.

sui client objects 0x3cbf06e9997b3864e3baad6bc0f0ef8ec423cd75

Use the IDs returns from the previous command in the merge-coin command.

sui client merge-coin --primary-coin 0x1e90389f5d70d7fa6ce973155460e1c04deae194 --coin-to-merge 0x351f08f03709cebea85dcd20e24b00fbc1851c92 --gas-budget 1000

Split coins

    sui client split-coin [OPTIONS] --coin-id <COIN_ID> --gas-budget <GAS_BUDGET> (--amounts <AMOUNTS>... | --count <COUNT>)

OPTIONS:
        --amounts <AMOUNTS>...       Specific amounts to split out from the coin
        --coin-id <COIN_ID>          Coin to Split, in 20 bytes Hex string
        --count <COUNT>              Count of equal-size coins to split into
        --gas <GAS>                  ID of the gas object for gas payment, in 20 bytes Hex string If
                                     not provided, a gas object with at least gas_budget value will
                                     be selected
        --gas-budget <GAS_BUDGET>    Gas budget for this call
    -h, --help                       Print help information
        --json                       Return command outputs in json format

To split a coin you need at least 2 coin objects, one to split and one to pay for gas fees.

Use the following command to view the objects the address owns.

sui client objects 0x08da15bee6a3f5b01edbbd402654a75421d81397

Then use the IDs returned in the split-coin command.

The following example splits one coin into three coins of different amounts, 1000, 5000, and 3000. The --amounts argument accepts a list of values.

sui client split-coin --coin-id 0x4a2853304fd2c243dae7d1ba58260bb7c40724e1 --amounts 1000 5000 3000 --gas-budget 1000

Use the objects command to view the new coin objects.

sui client objects 0x08da15bee6a3f5b01edbbd402654a75421d81397

The following example splits a coin into three equal parts. To split a coin evenly, don't include the --amount argument in the command.

sui client split-coin --coin-id 0x4a2853304fd2c243dae7d1ba58260bb7c40724e1 --count 3 --gas-budget 1000

Calling Move code

The genesis state of the Sui platform includes Move code that is immediately ready to be called from Sui CLI. Please see our Move developer documentation for the first look at Move source code and a description of the following function we will be calling in this tutorial:

public entry fun transfer(c: coin::Coin<SUI>, recipient: address) {
    transfer::transfer(c, Address::new(recipient))
}

Please note that there is no real need to use a Move call to transfer coins as this can be accomplished with a built-in Sui client command - we chose this example due to its simplicity.

Let us examine objects owned by address 0x48ff0a932b12976caec91d521265b009ad5b2225:

sui client objects 0x48ff0a932b12976caec91d521265b009ad5b2225

                 Object ID                  |  Version   |                    Digest                    |   Owner Type    |               Object Type

Showing 5 results.

Now that we know which objects are owned by that address, we can transfer one of them to another address, say the fresh one we created in the Generating a new account section (0xc72cf3adcc4d11c03079cef2c8992aea5268677a). We can try any object, but for the sake of this exercise, let's choose the last one on the list.

We will perform the transfer by calling the transfer function from the sui module using the following Sui client command:

sui client call --function transfer --module sui --package 0x2 --args 0x471c8e241d0473c34753461529b70f9c4ed3151b 0x3cbf06e9997b3864e3baad6bc0f0ef8ec423cd75 --gas-budget 1000

This is a pretty complicated command so let's explain all of its parameters one-by-one:

  • --function - name of the function to be called
  • --module - name of the module containing the function
  • --package - ID of the package object where the module containing the function is located. (Remember that the ID of the genesis Sui package containing the GAS module is defined in its manifest file, and is equal to 0x2.)
  • --args - a list of function arguments formatted as SuiJSON values (hence the preceding 0x in address and object ID):
    • ID of the gas object representing the c parameter of the transfer function
    • address of the new gas object owner
  • --gas - an optional object containing gas used to pay for this function call
  • --gas-budget - a decimal value expressing how much gas we are willing to pay for the transfer call to be completed to avoid accidental drain of all gas in the gas pay)

Note the third argument to the transfer function representing TxContext does not have to be specified explicitly - it is a required argument for all functions callable from Sui and is auto-injected by the platform at the point of a function call.

Important: If you use a shell that interprets square brackets ([ ]) as special characters (such as the zsh shell), you must enclose the brackets in single quotes. For example, instead of [7,42] you must use '[7,42]'.

Additionally, when you specify a vector of object IDs, you must enclose each ID in double quotes. For example, '["0x471c8e241d0473c34753461529b70f9c4ed3151b","0x53b50e3020a01e1fd6acf832a871feee240183f0"]'

To gain a deeper view into the object, include the

--json flag in the sui client command to see the raw JSON representation of the object.

The output of the call command is a bit verbose, but the important information that should be printed at the end indicates objects changes as a result of the function call:

This output indicates the gas object was updated to collect gas payment for the function call, and the transferred object was updated as its owner had been modified. We can confirm the latter (and thus a successful execution of the transfer function) by querying objects that are now owned by the sender:

sui client objects 0x48ff0a932b12976caec91d521265b009ad5b2225

Showing 4 results.

We can now see this address no longer owns the transferred object. And if we inspect this object, we can see it has the new owner, different from the original one:

sui client object 0x471c8e241d0473c34753461529b70f9c4ed3151b

Publish packages

You must publish packages to the Sui distributed ledger for the code you developed to be available in Sui. To publish packages with the Sui client, use the publish command.

Refer to the Move developer documentation for a description on how to write a simple Move code package, which you can then publish using the Sui client publish command.

Important: You must remove all calls to functions in the debug module from no-test code before you can publish the new module (test code is marked with the #[test] annotation).

Use the same address for publishing that we used for calling Move code in the previous section (0x3cbf06e9997b3864e3baad6bc0f0ef8ec423cd75) which now has four objects left:

The whole command to publish a package for address 0x3cbf06e9997b3864e3baad6bc0f0ef8ec423cd75 resembles the following (assuming that the location of the package sources is in the PATH_TO_PACKAGE environment variable):

sui client publish $PATH_TO_PACKAGE/my_move_package --gas 0xc8add7b4073900ffb0a8b4fe7d70a7db454c2e19 --gas-budget 30000 --verify-dependencies

The publish command accepts the path to your package as an optional positional parameter ($PATH_TO_PACKAGE/my_move_package in the previous call). If you do not supply the path, the command uses the current working directory as the default path value. The call also provides the following data:

  • --gas - The Coin object used to pay for gas.
  • --gas-budget - Gas budget for running module initializers.
  • --verify-dependencies - Optional flag to have the CLI check that all dependencies match their on-chain counterparts.

When the --verify-dependencies flag is present, the CLI verifies that the bytecode for dependencies found at their respective published addresses matches the bytecode you get when compiling that dependency from source code. If the bytecode for a dependency does not match, your package does not publish and you receive an error message indicating which package and module the mismatch was found in:

Local dependency did not match its on-chain version at <address>::<package>::<module>

The --verify-dependencies flag can fail the publish for other reasons, as well:

  • There are modules missing, either in the local version of the dependency or on-chain.
  • There's nothing at the address that the dependency points to (it was deleted or never existed).
  • The address supplied for the dependency points to an object instead of a package.
  • The CLI fails to connect to the node to fetch the package.

If successful, your response resembles the following:

Running this command created an object representing the published package. From now on, use the package object ID (0xdbcee02bd4eb326122ced0a8540f15a057d82850) in the Sui client call command (similar to 0x2 used for built-in packages in the Calling Move code section).

Another object created as a result of package publishing is a user-defined object (of type Forge) created inside the initializer function of the (only) module included in the published package - see the part of Move developer documentation concerning module initializers for more details.

You might notice that the gas object that was used to pay for publishing was updated as well.

Important: If the publishing attempt results in an error regarding verification failure, build your package locally (using the sui move build command) to get a more verbose error message.

Customize genesis

The genesis process can be customized by providing a genesis configuration file using the --config flag.

sui genesis --config <Path to genesis config file>
