In this commit, we add a new closeallchannels command to lncli. This
command allows us to close all existing active and inactive channels
by closing them cooperatively or unilaterally, respectively.
In this commit, we extend the `lncli create` command to allow users to
specify their own side (if they want). In the case that the user
*doesn’t* specify their own seed, we’ll return the entropy generated by
the wallet in a 24-word mnemonic format for easy backup.
With this change, it’s now possible for users to restore an existing lnd
wallet seed.
Since a ChannelPoint's funding txid can now be get/set as raw bytes or
a string, we first need to check what type it's currently set to before
accessing it.
In this commit we rename the lnrpc.PendingChannelRequest and
lnrpc.PendingChannelResponse to
lnrpc.PendingChannelsRequest/lnrpc.PendingChannelsResponse. We do this
as we strive to ensure that the naming scheme across the RPC interface
is consistent.
In this commit, we expose the new fee control features to the relevant
commands on the command line. This will allow users to have a greater
degree of control of the fees they pay when: sending coins on chain,
opening a channel, or closing a channel.
This commit adds a decorator that will inspect the
error from an command action, and prints an encrypted
wallet help text if the error has status code Unimplemented.
This is done to help a user that is trying to issue
lncli commands before unlocking the wallet, since
the RPC server won't be active and every call will
return this status code.
lncli create:
This command is used to set up a wallet encryption password for
use with lnd at first time use. It will ask fot the user to
confirm the chosen password, then do a call to the lnd RPC method
CreateWallet with the chosen password.
lncli unlock:
This command is used to unlock the wallet of a running lnd instance.
It calls the RPC method UnlockWallet with the provided password.
Both methods makes use of the terminal.ReadPassword method, to
securely read a password from user input without making it
replayable in the terminal.
In this commit, we extend the help message for `newaddress`
to indicate which address types can be used when directly
funding channels. Additionally, we add some additional text
to the insufficient funding error to detail that we don't have
enough witness outputs.
The new BOLT-11 compliant zpay32 package offers a few new
available options when creating invoices. This commit adds
those options to lncli, such that callers can specify these
when creating payment requests.
