Is there any way to change wallet gap limit in Electrum from command line? If yes, how? If not, could it be bypassed using some kind of external script? I really need to avoid GUI. Thank you in advance.

Does [this](https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/22606/more-receive-addresses-with-electrum) no longer work? – Raghav Sood Apr 17 '18 at 11:40

@RaghavSood console there means the python console in the QT gui. – Abdussamad Apr 17 '18 at 12:51

The only way is to edit the json code in the wallet file and add the gap limit into it. You can do that using the command line tool jq:
jq ". + {gap_limit:100}" wallet_file

@MichalVales yes you'll likely have to restart electrum to get it to generate the new addresses and sync. – Abdussamad Apr 17 '18 at 20:21
