Getting Started

The local development node is available through the acton localnet command group.

Start the Node

acton localnet start

By default, the node listens on port 5411 (or [localnet].port from Acton.toml).

You can verify that the server is running:

curl -s "http://localhost:5411/api/v2/getMasterchainInfo"

Fund an Address

Use the built-in faucet command:

acton localnet airdrop UQA_ftKIJsHEAE_UgtFOUK15hPzycZooFuUr8duyY9T3kwwM

Set a custom amount:

acton localnet airdrop UQA_ftKIJsHEAE_UgtFOUK15hPzycZooFuUr8duyY9T3kwwM --amount 50

Use a Custom Port

acton localnet start --port 3010

Then target the same port for CLI helpers:

acton localnet airdrop UQA_ftKIJsHEAE_UgtFOUK15hPzycZooFuUr8duyY9T3kwwM --port 3010

Stop the Node

Press Ctrl+C in the terminal where the node is running.
