This page provides some documentation about the OG Coinye wallet. The Bitye versions might have slightly different commands etc. It's an old wallet, forked from Litecoin in 2014; Litecoin itself forked from Bitcoin in 2011. So Coinye is *very* closely related to both Bitcoin and Litecoin. The source code is written to be read and understood, so the repository itself is the ultimate documentation.
In the graphical client, you can issue commands directly under Help -> Debug Window -> Console. If you're only running the daemon (without the gui), you can directly issue commands from the CLI, like so:
$ ./coinyecoind [command] [parameters]
eg:
$ ./coinyecoind getinfo

Commands are not to be confused with options. Like commands, they can also be issued by putting them after the executable name, like so:
./coinyecoind -port=44333Note that typically, options are things that can't be changed during run-time. So unlike commands, they can't be issued in the console in the debug window, or issued to an already running daemon. To get the full list from below, use the "-?" option like so:
$ ./coinyecoind -?
Usage: coinyecoind [options] coinyecoind [options] <command> [params] Send command to -server or coinyecoind coinyecoind [options] help List commands coinyecoind [options] help <command> Get help for a command Options: -conf=<file> Specify configuration file (default: coinyecoin.conf) -pid=<file> Specify pid file (default: coinyecoind.pid) -gen Generate coins -gen=0 Don't generate coins -datadir=<dir> Specify data directory -dbcache=<n> Set database cache size in megabytes (default: 25) -dblogsize=<n> Set database disk log size in megabytes (default: 100) -timeout=<n> Specify connection timeout (in milliseconds) -proxy=<ip:port> Connect through socks proxy -socks=<n> Select the version of socks proxy to use (4-5, default: 5) -tor=<ip:port> Use proxy to reach tor hidden services (default: same as -proxy) -dns Allow DNS lookups for -addnode, -seednode and -connect -port=<port> Listen for connections on <port> (default: 41338 or testnet: 31338) -maxconnections=<n> Maintain at most <n> connections to peers (default: 125) -addnode=<ip> Add a node to connect to and attempt to keep the connection open -connect=<ip> Connect only to the specified node(s) -seednode=<ip> Connect to a node to retrieve peer addresses, and disconnect -externalip=<ip> Specify your own public address -onlynet=<net> Only connect to nodes in network <net> (IPv4, IPv6 or Tor) -discover Discover own IP address (default: 1 when listening and no -externalip) -irc Find peers using internet relay chat (default: 0) -listen Accept connections from outside (default: 1 if no -proxy or -connect) -bind=<addr> Bind to given address.

Also note that most commonly, options will be set in the coinyecoin.conf file. The config file is [datadir]/coinyecoin.conf by default. The datadir itself, is usually ~/.coinyecoin (on Linux; note the dot makes it hidden!) or C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\CoinyeCoin (on Windows). (The actual source code for this is very readable!) Both the datadir and configuration file can be overruled by options, but note that doing this from within a config file, assumes the file is being found and read! When in doubt, specify from the command line!
$ ./coinyecoind -conf="~/coinye_wallet_b/conf_a.conf"
or
$ ./coinyecoind -datadir="~/coinye_wallet_c"
To load configuration from ~/coinye_wallet_c/coinyecoin.conf. A typical configuration file would look something like this:
coinyecoin.conf
