Extract and Address from private.key
If you need to extract and print out the address stored in a private.key file, there are many ways to do it; here's one way to do it through some short Python code:
from eth_account import Account
key_path = '/path/to/private.key'
# Read the raw private key bytes
with open(key_path, 'rb') as f:
private_key_bytes = f.read()
# Convert bytes to hex string
private_key_hex = private_key_bytes.hex()
# Load the account from the private key
acct = Account.from_key(private_key_hex)
# Print the Ethereum address
print('Address:', acct.address)
