# cosmos-sdk-cli 
Create a new blockchain project based on cosmos-sdk with a single command.

---

# Installation

```shell
go get github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk
make all
```

This will install a binary cosmos-sdk-cli

# Creating a new project

**cosmos-sdk-cli init** _Your-Project-Name_

This will initialize a project, the dependencies, directory structures with the specified project name.

### Example:
```shell
cosmos-sdk-cli init testzone -p github.com/your_user_name/testzone
```
-p remote project path (optional). If this is not provided, it creates testzone under $GOPATH/src/


```shell
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/your_user_name/testzone
make
```
This will create two binaries(basecli and basecoind) under bin folder. basecoind is the full node of the application which you can run, and basecli is your light client.
