I am a cpp dev and i want to have a look at the ethereum code so i chose the cpp-ethereum repo.

Do geth and cpp-ethereum have the same CLI commands? I wasn`t able to find a list of the commands for cpp-ethereum (I can look at the argv loop but I also need the command list for quick reference).

  • One difference I have already noticed is that you have different commands for the JSON RPC, i.e. geth --rpc vs eth -j. Is there a reason the CLIs are not uniform across clients? And are there differences between the other clients as well, e.g. parity, python ethereum?

I have extensively used Geth and Geth-CLI. As far as I know, the only way we can interact with ethereum-cpp is using one of the methods mentioned in the documentation.

I didn't even expect geth and ethereum-cpp to have same/similar commands. Geth has a CLI based off the golang debugger. Although, all types of ethereum node can be interacted using the web3 libraries.
