ws-wallet new-key [keyname] [curve type: p256 | p384]

get pub-key-hex

ws-wallet get-pkh [keyname]

Open connection to ws-identity server

ws-wallet connect [url] [key-name] ([strict-ssl])

requires:

• [url] of the ws-identity host (e.g., 'http://localhost:8700')
• [key-name] of local keyfile with pub-key-hex addresss used to request new session ID
• [strict-ssl] can be set to false when testing ssl/tls enabled ws-identity server

Requests a new session Id from the ws-idenity. Outputs the session Id and signature as API keys to access the ws-identity server and open connction to ws-wallet from the desired application
