This page describes how to configure mxpy (the CLI tool), using the mxpy config command.

tip

mxpy's configuration is stored in the file ~/multiversx-sdk/mxpy.json.

Viewing the current mxpy configuration​

In order to view the current configuration, one can issue the command mxpy config dump. Output example:

    "txVersion": "1",
    "dependencies.llvm.tag": "v...",
    "dependencies.vmtools.tag": "v...",
    "chainID": "...",
    "dependencies.rust.tag": ""
}

Updating the mxpy configuration​

One can alter the current configuration using the command mxpy config set. For example, in order to set the proxy URL or the chain ID, one would do the following:

$ mxpy config set chainID 1...
$ mxpy config set proxy https://gateway.multiversx.com
