The add-rpc-user command

zallet add-rpc-user produces a config entry that authorizes a user to access the JSON-RPC interface.

The command takes the username as its only argument. When run, Zallet will ask you to enter the password. It is recommended to paste the password in from e.g. a password manager, as what you type will not be printed to the screen and thus it is possible to make mistakes.

$ zallet add-rpc-user foobar
Enter password:

Once the password has been provided, press Enter. Zallet will hash the password and print out the user entry that you need to add to your config file.

$ zallet add-rpc-user foobar
Enter password:
Add this to your zallet.toml file:

[[rpc.auth]]
user = "foobar"
pwhash = "9a7e65104358b82cdd88e39155a5c36f$5564cf1836aa589f99250d7ddc11826cbb66bf9a9ae2079d43c353b1feaec445"
