There is detailed help for bitcoin-cli commands using for example:
./src/bitcoin-cli getconnectioncount help
.
However, there isn't generally detailed help for bitcoin-cli options such as
./src/bitcoin-cli -netinfo help
.
(Note the dash in front of netinfo
with no such dash before getconnectioncount
)
Is there a reason why there isn't the same help for bitcoin-cli options?
Jon Atack added on IRC:
If not is there an already planned way to add to the help doc and would this be a good idea? For more detailed help than in
./src/bitcoin-cli -h
I was thinking it might be good to have a detailed help doc for
-netinfo
either withhelp -netinfo
or expand the existing one at./src/bitcoin-cli -h | grep -A3 netinfo
or add adoc/netinfo.md
