Embedding address into the datum using the CLI

Question

I have a validator that uses Address in datum. I also have an address generated (payment.vkey, payment.skey, payment.addr, stake.vkey, stake.skey, stake.addr). I'm able to get PubKeyHash using command line like this:

cardano-cli address key-hash --payment-verification-key-file payment.vkey

That gives an addressPaymentCredential that I'm able to embed to datum when building the transaction in cli. It has the same information as (addressPaymentCredential, _). How would I go about getting a full address with addressStakingCredential in it, that is, (addressPaymentCredential, addressStakingCredential)?

I think that the JSON structure of Address in datum should be like this:

{
  "constructor": 0,
  "fields": [
    {
      "constructor": 0,
      "fields": [
        {
          "bytes": PubKeyHash
        }
      ]
    },
    {
      "constructor": 1,
      "fields": [
        {
          "bytes": StakingCredentialHash
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

My problem is I don't know how to get StakingCredentialHash.

TLDR: How do I embedd an Address instead of just PubKeyHash into the datum in cardano cli? I have the address credentials in payment.* and stake.* files.

Answer 1

The problem was that I was trying to use the cardano-cli command for address to a stake-address. The command for payment credential (PubKeyHash) is correct in the question:

cardano-cli address key-hash --payment-verification-key-file payment.vkey

The correct command for staking credential should be like this:

cardano-cli stake-address key-hash --stake-verification-key-file stake.vkey

Outputs of those 2 commands can be used to build correct Address in datum.

Also, the JSON I provided in the question is incorrect, the staking credential part should be deeper than the payment credential part, you can get the correct JSON by printing the datum in emulator using a command like in an answer to this question.
