All JSON-RPC methods accept a new named
parameter called args that can
contain positional parameter values. This is a convenience to allow some
parameter values to be passed by name without having to name every value. The
python test framework and bitcoin-cli tool both take advantage of this, so
for example:
bitcoin-cli -named createwallet wallet_name=mywallet load_on_startup=1Can now be shortened to:
bitcoin-cli -named createwallet mywallet load_on_startup=1
