$ akash tx send -h

Generating a transaction can simply be done by appending the --generate-only flag on any tx command
Example:
akash tx send bob akash12wlzqjelrt87r3u56ps4m8lk7wavx5m5jg9cax 10000000uakt --chain-id devnet --generate-only
This will output the unsigned transaction as JSON in the console. We can also save the unsigned transaction to a file by appending > unsigned_tx.json to the above command.
Signing a transaction using the CLI requires the unsigned transaction to be saved in a file.
$ akash tx sign unsigned_tx.json --chain-id devnet --from alice
This command will decode the unsigned transaction and sign it with SIGN_MODE_DIRECT with alice's key, which we already set up in the keyring. The signed transaction will be output as JSON to the console, and we can save it to a file by appending > signed_tx.json.

--timeout-height uint Set a block timeout height to prevent the tx from being committed past a certain height
-y, --yes Skip tx broadcasting prompt confirmation
Some useful flags to consider in the tx sign command:
- --sign-mode: you may use amino-json to sign the transaction using SIGN_MODE_LEGACY_AMINO_JSON,
- --offline: sign in offline mode. This means that the tx sign command doesn't connect to the node to retrieve the signer's account number and sequence, both needed for signing. In this case, you must manually supply the --account-number and --sequence flags. This is useful for offline signing, i.e. signing in a secure environment which doesn't have access to the internet.
Encode transactions created with the --generate-only flag and signed with the sign command. It will read a transaction from , serialize it to the Amino wire protocol, and output it as base64. If you supply a dash (-) argument in place of an input filename, the command reads from standard input.
$ akash tx encode signed-tx.json

More Info
Usage:
akash tx encode [file] [flags]
Flags:
-a, --account-number uint The account number of the signing account (offline mode only)
-b, --broadcast-mode string Transaction broadcasting mode (sync|async|block) (default "sync")
--dry-run ignore the --gas flag and perform a simulation of a transaction, but don't broadcast it
--fees string Fees to pay along with transaction; eg: 10uatom
--from string Name or address of private key with which to sign
--gas string gas limit to set per-transaction; set to "auto" to calculate sufficient gas automatically (default 200000)
--gas-adjustment float adjustment factor to be multiplied against the estimate returned by the tx simulation; if the gas limit is set manually this flag is ignored (default 1)
--gas-prices string Gas prices in decimal format to determine the transaction fee (e.g. 0.1uatom)
--generate-only Build an unsigned transaction and write it to STDOUT (when enabled, the local Keybase is not accessible)
-h, --help help for encode
--keyring-backend string Select keyring's backend (os|file|kwallet|pass|test) (default "os")
--keyring-dir string The client Keyring directory; if omitted, the default 'home' directory will be used
--ledger Use a connected Ledger device
--memo string Memo to send along with transaction
--node string <host>:<port> to tendermint rpc interface for this chain (default "tcp://localhost:26657")
--offline Offline mode (does not allow any online functionality
-s, --sequence uint The sequence number of the signing account (offline mode only)
--sign-mode string Choose sign mode (direct|amino-json), this is an advanced feature
--timeout-height uint Set a block timeout height to prevent the tx from being committed past a certain height
-y, --yes Skip tx broadcasting prompt confirmation
Global Flags:
--chain-id string The network chain ID
--home string directory for config and data (default "/home/vitwit/.akash")
--log_format string The logging format (json|plain) (default "plain")
--log_level string The logging level (trace|debug|info|warn|error|fatal|panic) (default "info")
--trace print out full stack trace on errors
Broadcasting a transaction using the CLI requires the signed transaction to be saved in a file.
akash tx broadcast [file_path] [flags]
You may optionally pass the --broadcast-mode flag to specify which response to receive from the node:
- block: the CLI waits for the tx to be committed in a block.
- sync: the CLI waits for a CheckTx execution response only.
- async: the CLI returns immediately (transaction might fail).

Broadcasting a transaction using the REST endpoint (served by gRPC-gateway) can be done by sending a POST request as follows, where the txBytes are the protobuf-encoded bytes of a signed transaction:
curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d'{"tx_bytes":"{{txBytes}}","mode":"BROADCAST_MODE_SYNC"}' localhost:1317/cosmos/tx/v1beta1/txs
Here, tx_bytes value will be encoded tx of signed transaction.
Example
$ $ curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d'{"tx_bytes":"CpABCo0BChwvY29zbW9zLmJhbmsudjFiZXRhMS5Nc2dTZW5kEm0KLGFrYXNoMTZxNnMwdGF1YzNja3M1dXM3ZjU3d2RzOGM4bHFnNGpxczBxdGFmEixha2FzaDF6c2d6ZWU2dnZ4OTQyYzRjNjl2bDg1OXc5YXpuNzdqOHVoZHV1ZxoPCgVzdGFrZRIGMTAwMDAwElgKUApGCh8vY29zbW9zLmNyeXB0by5zZWNwMjU2azEuUHViS2V5EiMKIQPoQpMlneHFhtCg/hoAsRxDlM5ZdXJeVb6BoA71SMBdxBIECgIIfxgCEgQQwJoMGkB+VlYeHU81v4qxIOGpIKpmq7fzVB83Lvy5xvxpm37F6yZ9+XA56KzkMdHhpURmaFYF2567D0nE5e57UKfKF6Az","mode":"BROADCAST_MODE_SYNC"}' localhost:1317/cosmos/tx/v1beta1/txs
CosmJS aims to build client libraries in JavaScript that can be embedded in web applications. Please see https://cosmos.github.io/cosmjs (opens new window) for more information. As of January 2021, CosmJS documentation is still work in progress.
Please go through this code to sign a transaction using CosmJS javascript library.
