wallet-cli token info¶
Show token metadata.
Synopsis¶
wallet-cli token info (--contract <address> | --asset-id <id>) [options]
Description¶
Fetches a token's metadata straight from the chain — a pure RPC read that never touches your accounts. Pass exactly one selector: --contract for a contract-based token (TRC20 on TRON, ERC20 on EVM), --asset-id for a TRC10 asset.
Contract-token reads (TRC20/ERC20) return normalized metadata. The TRC10 --asset-id branch keeps the node record's snake_case keys, but decodes its text fields (name, abbr, url, description) to UTF-8 and serializes int64 quantities such as total_supply as decimal strings. Do not apply the contract-token field set to a TRC10 response.
Options¶
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
--contract <string> |
Token contract address — TRC20 on TRON, ERC20 on EVM |
--asset-id <string> |
TRON only. TRC10 numeric asset id; exactly one of --asset-id / --contract |
Plus the global options.
Examples¶
wallet-cli token info --contract TXYZopYRdj2D9XRtbG411XZZ3kM5VkAeBf --network tron:3448148188
Name Tether USD
Symbol USDT
Decimals 6
wallet-cli token info --contract TXYZopYRdj2D9XRtbG411XZZ3kM5VkAeBf --network tron:3448148188 -o json
{"schema":"wallet-cli.result.v1","success":true,"command":"token.info","data":{"contract":"TXYZopYRdj2D9XRtbG411XZZ3kM5VkAeBf","name":"Tether USD","symbol":"USDT","decimals":6,"totalSupply":"17600000000030000000"},"meta":{"durationMs":690,"warnings":[]},"chain":{"family":"tron","network":"tron:3448148188","chainId":"3448148188"}}
An ERC20 token on an EVM network — no totalSupply:
wallet-cli token info --contract 0x1c7D4B196Cb0C7B01d743Fbc6116a902379C7238 --network eip155:11155111 -o json
{"schema":"wallet-cli.result.v1","success":true,"command":"token.info","data":{"contract":"0x1c7D4B196Cb0C7B01d743Fbc6116a902379C7238","symbol":"USDC","decimals":6,"name":"USDC"},"meta":{"durationMs":409,"warnings":[]},"chain":{"family":"evm","network":"eip155:11155111","chainId":"11155111"}}
A TRC10 lookup keeps the node's key names while decoding text and preserving quantities exactly:
wallet-cli token info --asset-id 1002000 --network tron:3448148188 -o json
{"schema":"wallet-cli.result.v1","success":true,"command":"token.info","data":{"id":"1002000","owner_address":"418225f3aa48a2d30643a64410abb1e914dfa0bd2f","name":"MyToken","abbr":"MTK","description":"Demo TRC10","url":"https://mytoken.example","total_supply":"1000000000","trx_num":1,"num":100,"precision":6,"start_time":1785542400000,"end_time":1788134400000,"free_asset_net_limit":0,"public_free_asset_net_limit":0,"frozen_supply":[]},"meta":{"durationMs":210,"warnings":[]},"chain":{"family":"tron","network":"tron:3448148188","chainId":"3448148188"}}
Output¶
For --contract (TRC20/ERC20):
| Field | Type | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
contract |
string | Token contract address |
name |
string | Token name |
symbol |
string | Token symbol |
decimals |
number | Token decimals |
totalSupply |
string | Total supply when the TRON contract adapter returns it; not returned by the EVM service |
For --asset-id (TRC10):
| Field | Type | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
id / owner_address |
string | Asset id and the node's hex owner address |
name / abbr / description / url |
string | UTF-8 text decoded from the node response |
total_supply |
string | Exact int64 supply in minimal units |
trx_num / num |
number | On-chain ICO rate pair |
precision |
number? | Asset precision; absent means 0 |
start_time / end_time |
number | ICO window, epoch milliseconds |
free_asset_net_limit / public_free_asset_net_limit |
number? | Free-bandwidth limits when present |
frozen_supply |
array? | Frozen tranches; each frozen_amount is a decimal string and frozen_days is a number |
The TRC10 shape does not contain normalized contract, symbol, or decimals keys.
Exit status¶
0 success · 1 execution failure (token_metadata_unavailable — the contract does not expose ERC20-style metadata; rpc_error) · 2 usage error (invalid_value; invalid_option — --asset-id on an EVM network).
