# Status CLI
The Status CLI is a command line interface for interacting with the Status messenging process. It is a tool for developers and QAs to test the communication workflow without running Status desktop and mobile app.
## Features
- Create a new account
- Send and receive contact request
- DM between contacts
## Build
Go to `cmd/status-cli` directory and build the binary
```bash
go build
```
You can also run `make status-cli` in the root directory to build the binary.
## Run
### Run `serve` command:
```bash
# run alice's server
./status-cli serve
# run Bob's server in another terminal with the logged pubkey of Alice
./status-cli serve -n bob -p 8565 -a <alice-pubkey>
```
You can send direct messages through terminal or JSON RPC.
JSON RPC examples:
```bash
# get waku info
curl -XPOST http://127.0.0.1:8545 -H 'Content-type: application/json' -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"waku_info","params":[],"id":1}'
# send contact request from bob to alice (use -a flag will automatacally send contact request when starting)
curl -XPOST http://127.0.0.1:8565 -H 'Content-type: application/json' -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"wakuext_sendContactRequest","params":[{"id": "0x0436470da23039f10c1588bc6b9fcbd4b815bf9fae4dc09c0fb05a7eaaf1670b5dbdbc757630d54bf2f8be45a796304dc42506c3f4172f499f610a9ed85d9b0d4c", "message": "hello"}],"id":1}'
# send dm from bob to alice
curl -XPOST http://127.0.0.1:8565 -H 'Content-type: application/json' -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"wakuext_sendOneToOneMessage","params":[{"id": "0x0436470da23039f10c1588bc6b9fcbd4b815bf9fae4dc09c0fb05a7eaaf1670b5dbdbc757630d54bf2f8be45a796304dc42506c3f4172f499f610a9ed85d9b0d4c", "message": "how are you"}],"id":1}'

```
### Run `dm` command:
```bash
# simulate DM between two accounts
./status-cli dm
# simulate DM in a interactive way
./status-cli dm -i
# simulate DM with 3 messages
./status-cli dm -c 3
# run in light mode
./status-cli dm --light
```
You can run the commands with `--light` to work as a light client.
Logs are recorded in file `*.log` and terminal.
