Description
What problem does your feature solve?
The existing stellar tx send command submits transactions exclusively through Soroban RPC's sendTransaction endpoint. There is no way to submit a transaction directly to stellar-core, or horizon.
Submitting directly to stellar-core is useful when:
- Ops work setting up new networks where an RPC isn't running but a classic tx needs sending.
- Debugging transaction submission issues where you want to isolate whether the problem is in RPC or core.
- Operating in environments where Soroban RPC is unavailable but stellar-core is accessible.
- Testing core directly during development or network upgrades.
What would you like to see?
A new stellar tx send-via-core subcommand that submits a transaction envelope directly to a stellar-core instance, bypassing Soroban RPC.
The command would follow the same pattern as stellar tx send:
stellar tx send-via-core [TX_XDR] --core-url <url>
- Accept a base-64 encoded transaction envelope XDR from a positional argument, file, or stdin (same as
stellar tx send). - Accept a
--core-urlflag (or resolve it from network configuration) pointing to a stellar-core HTTP endpoint. - Submit the transaction to stellar-core's
txHTTP endpoint. - Print the response from core.
What alternatives are there?
- Use
curlto manually POST the transaction XDR to a stellar-core instance's/txendpoint. - Submit via
stellar tx sendthrough RPC, which internally forwards to core anyway.
