Interacting with Indexchain Chains
Using komodo-cli
Initiate the komodod daemon by calling it from the command line and including any desired runtime parameters.
When initiating any Smart Chain other than the main DIC chain, the user should always include all parameters that were used to create the Smart Chain.
::: tip Note to Windows Users: Replace ./komodod and ./komodo-cli with komodod.exe and komodo-cli.exe for each step. :::
To launch the main DIC chain, execute the following command in the directory where komodod is installed.
After the daemon launches, you may interact with it using the komodo-cli software.
To launch another Smart Chain, include the necessary parameters.
::: tip IMPORTANT Always execute the launch command EXACTLY as indicated, and as the Smart Chain's developers instruct. If you make a mistake, you must delete the Smart Chain data and re-launch to regain access to the Smart Chain's network. :::
For example, to launch the DEX Smart Chain, execute:
To interact with the DEX daemon, use komodo-cli like so:
In the terminal you can call the Komodo documentation by executing:

Using curl
To access a coin daemon remotely -- for example, via a curl command in the shell -- the user will need to obtain the rpcuser, rpcpassword, and rpcport from the .conf file of the relevant coin daemon.
Location of .conf File
Assuming the default installation location, the .conf file can be found by exploring the following directories:
Within this directory there are also subdirectories containing all DIC-compatible .conf files used on this node.
