View Ethereum wallet from Linux command line

Tired of opening the GUI window to look at your Ethereum wallet? Or maybe with a low RAM and do you need a faster transaction management method? In this article, there are many methods that show Ethereum’s wallet from the Linux command line.

Method 1: Using “Cat”

The easiest approach is to use the “CAT” command. This shows the entire set of wallets in a binary format that can happen if you only see binary data:

`Bash

$ Mat -n ~/.etherscancli/walklet.json

`

Replace `~/.etherscancli/for the actual path of the Ethereum wallet file.

This command issues the content of the wallet in human readable format, but it is still only binary data. You may need to convert it to a more readable format if you don’t know Hexadecimal or JSON.

Method 2: Using “Wallet-Cli”

You can use the “Wallet-Cli” command to contact a programmed wallet:

`Bash

$ Wallet-Clip-Help

`

This helps to manage assistance with various available options. One is -show that allows you to view the content of your wallet in a GUI format.

If you do not see anything when you start this command, make sure that:

“Wallet-Cli” package was installed using “apt-get” or other packages manager.

Ethereum wallet is properly configured and set to the system.

Method 3: Use XRDP

Ethereum: How do I show my wallet from the command line?

For those who operate 64-bit Linux systems with X11 display manager (such as Ubuntu, Debian), you can use the “XRDP” tool to view the Ethereum wallet in GUI format:

`Bash

$ XRDP -wallet = -show

`

Replace for the actual path of Ethereum wallet file.

This command shows the content of the wallet in a window that can be very useful to process a large amount of data. Just make sure you have configured XRDP 'and set a safe connection to the Ethereum network.



 Method 4: “SSHFS” (if you have access SSH) 
 Use **

If you start Linux on an external server or container, you may not be able to view your wallet using "Wallet-Cli". In this case, you can install a remote file system: using the SSHFS tool:

Bash

$ sshfs -o no_x11 = TRUE @: ~/ .etherscancli/ Wallet.json ~ ///

`

Replace for the actual username and with an IP address of an external server or storage. Make sure you have the necessary permissions to access Ethereum wallet.

After installing, you can use “SSHFS” to view the content of your wallet in GUI -free:

`Bash

$ sshfs -o no_x11 = TRUE @: ~/ .etherscancli/ Wallet.json ~ ///

`

Conclusion

The introduction of Ethereum wallet from the command line is now easier than ever! With these methods, you can interact with your wallet programmed or look in GUI format. Be sure to follow the proven procedures to provide your wallet and network. Happy transaction!
