Create a new receiving address in the behalf of another wallet?

Yes, you can use bitcoin-cli for address generation.

To learn more try:

bitcoin-cli help getnewaddress

Also consider using some RESTful service running on your Bitcoind host.

For Node I can recommend https://www.npmjs.com/package/bitcoin-core

In order to keep my wallet anonymous I would want to create new account addresses. – Dor Bar – 2018-11-19T21:25:49.087

yes that command exactly does it – Boris Ivanov – 2018-11-20T09:23:18.430

But how should I attach the new address with any wallet on the network?

My wallet is on my computer and the API is on a remote server.

What I expect the API to do is to have the account address of my local wallet and assign the new Receiving-Address generated by the API to my wallet address.

Can I do that? – Dor Bar – 2018-11-21T10:53:56.743

I guess its standard scenario: U have webservice which sell Pizza.

User ordering Pizza which cost 1BTC. 2. API make notice they need new address. 3. Ur PC generates new address. 4. API takes this address and ask user to pay. 5. User pays. 6. Ur PC periodically checks ur accout to see incoming transaction on that particular address to 1BTC. 7 If in X minutes 1BTC coming Ur PC notify Ur API that "Transaction passed". 8. You notify Ur chef to start cooking Pizza

Between 2 and 3 there is so ting going on. Should be another peace of software that will trigger my wallet to create this new address automatically. – Dor Bar – 2018-11-25T10:05:46.380

Step 3 is calling bitcoin-cli getnewaddress to generate new bitcoin address – Boris Ivanov – 2018-11-26T10:22:40.510

Who is running this command? – Dor Bar – 2018-11-26T11:17:51.167
