Script for ILP Credentials on XRP Testnet

README.md

ILP Credentials

Just save ilp_creds.sh to your machine, and run source ./ilp_creds.sh in bash. It will fetch you XRP testnet credentials from the faucet, and export them into your shell in the variables ILP_CREDENTIALS and ILP_PLUGIN.

In this shell, you can now use ILP tools such as ilp-curl, which will use your new testnet credentials.

To save your testnet credentials into your .bashrc, run:

echo "export ILP_CREDENTIALS=$ILP_CREDENTIALS" >> ~/.bashrc
echo "export ILP_PLUGIN=$ILP_PLUGIN" >> ~/.bashrc

ilp_creds.sh

#!/bin/bash

TESTNET_ACCOUNT="`curl -X POST 'https://faucet.altnet.rippletest.net/accounts' 2>/dev/null`"
TESTNET_ADDRESS="`echo "$TESTNET_ACCOUNT" | jq '.account.address'`"
TESTNET_SECRET="`echo "$TESTNET_ACCOUNT" | jq '.account.secret'`"

echo "Address: $TESTNET_ADDRESS"
echo "Secret:  $TESTNET_SECRET"

export ILP_CREDENTIALS="{\"address\":$TESTNET_ADDRESS,\"secret\":$TESTNET_SECRET,\"server\":\"wss://s.altnet.rippletest.net:51233\"}"
export ILP_PLUGIN="ilp-plugin-xrp-escrow"
