wallet-cli current

Show the current (active) account.

Synopsis

wallet-cli current [options]

Options

Option	Description
--qr	Also render the receive address for the selected network as a scannable QR code in the terminal, with the full address printed below it for manual verification; text output only

Plus the global options (--account overrides which account is shown).

An account carries one address per chain family, and the text output lists every address it has. --network selects which one --qr encodes; it does not filter the listing, and no node is contacted.

Examples

wallet-cli current

Active account: main
  TRON address  TE9kPMtaMjfZN95CuPRsCHUQGWwx9EcJW8
  EVM address   0x7B28FE10FBccE88c3967ff0Fd64f1ffB46b46C9C

The header follows data.active, not the flag: it reads Selected account: when --account names an account other than the active one, and stays Active account: otherwise — including when --account happens to name the active account.

Add --qr to also render the active account's address as a scannable receive QR code, drawn with block characters after the address list and followed by a Receive address line carrying the full value. Purely local — the address comes from local keystore metadata, no node access:

wallet-cli current --qr

Active account: main
  TRON address  TE9kPMtaMjfZN95CuPRsCHUQGWwx9EcJW8
  EVM address   0x7B28FE10FBccE88c3967ff0Fd64f1ffB46b46C9C

[ scannable QR code of the TRON address, drawn in the terminal ]
Receive address  TE9kPMtaMjfZN95CuPRsCHUQGWwx9EcJW8

The QR encodes one address — the receive address for the selected network. Pass --network to choose which:

wallet-cli current --qr --network eip155:11155111

The QR is a terminal rendering only and scans from a real terminal (where the block characters line up). In JSON mode no QR pixels are rendered; --qr validates that the selected account has an address for the selected network and adds that value as data.receiveAddress. If the text terminal is non-interactive or too narrow to fit the QR, it degrades to printing the addresses with a warning:

warning: terminal is non-interactive or too narrow for a complete QR code; showing the full address only

Output

data is one account entry, in the same shape list returns.

Field	Type	Meaning
accountId	string	Account id
label	string	Account label
type	string	seed / privateKey / watch / ledger
index	number | null	HD derivation index; null for non-HD accounts
active	boolean	true for the active account; false when --account selected a different one
addresses	object	One entry per family the account can produce: tron (base58) and/or evm (0x, EIP-55 checksummed)
derivationPath	object | null	The BIP32 path behind each address: every family for a seed account, the single chosen path for a ledger account; null for privateKey and watch, which were never derived
seedId	string	Owning seed wallet id (seed accounts only)
family	string	Chain family this account is bound to — single-family accounts (watch, ledger) only
receiveAddress	string	Present in JSON only when --qr was requested; address selected by --network

The chain block echoes the network selected for display; the command contacts no node.
