Stop a MultiChain node

Stops a running MultiChain node. The function accepts either a connection object (created by mc_connect()) or a chain name. When a chain name is provided, it first retrieves the configuration and establishes a connection automatically.

Usage

mc_node_stop(x)

Arguments

x

Either:

• A character string (chain name) — automatically retrieves the configuration and establishes a connection before stopping.

• An object of class "multichain_conn" — sends the stop command directly to that connected node.

Value

Invisibly returns the result of the RPC stop command.

Other node operations: mc_node_init(), mc_node_start()

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
# Stop by chain name
mc_node_stop("my_chain")

# Stop using a connection object
conn <- mc_connect(mc_get_config("my_chain"))
mc_node_stop(conn)
} # }
