How do you start the Ardor funding account monitor via the command line?

Question

I want to fund accounts I tag via account properties using the account monitor, but I want to understand how it can be started.

The ardor account monitor can be started via the gui: https://ardordocs.jelurida.com/Account_Monitor

• When starting the monitor via the GUI, do you have to leave the browser open?
• What about starting it via the command line?
• Also how does fee-ratio work? Is there an example?

Answer 1

There is no specific command line option to start the funding monitor. You can probably start it using a curl command after starting your node.

Q: When starting the monitor via the GUI, do you have to leave the browser open? A: You can close your browser just keep your node running like with forging and bundling.

Q: Also how does fee-ratio work? Is there an example? A: Fee ratio works like in any other API it is the conversion rate between child token and parent token used when the monitor submits its funding transactions.
