How can I set monero-wallet-rpc default password

Question

I want to set a permanent monero-wallet-rpc password.

Right now every time I run monero-wallet-rpc I am asked to define a password.

How can I make this password be permanent?

Answer 1

You can start the wallet RPC with either of these flags:

--password arg                    Wallet password (escape/quote as needed)
--password-file arg               Wallet password file

You then won't be prompted to enter a password.
