This commit updates the command line help for several commands within
cmd/lncli to be more uniform, and also use the proper attributes within
the urfave/cli project. Additionally, in several areas cli.Int was using
used instead of cli.Int64 when parsing satoshis. This oversight has been
rectified by modifying all incorrect occurrences.
Finally, this commit, as its central contribution, adds the ability to mix
and match positional arguments with key-word arguments for several
commands! The following commands can now be used with either only
positional arguments, only key-word arguments, or a mix of both when
applicable:
* openchannel
* closechannel
* sendpayment
* getnodeinfo
* getchaninfo
* newaddress
* sendcoins
* sendmany
* connect
* addinvoice
* lookupinvoice
* queryroute
The set of changes outlined above should make command line tinkering with
`lnd` a bit more streamlined, yet still very flexible.
This commit modifies the behavior for the commands which open and close
channels on the command line. Previsouly a user needed to use the
`—block` flag in order to get information about any possible errors or
the full progress of a request. This commit alters the behavior
slightly to block until the _first_ message or error is returned from
the gRPC stream.
With this change, the command line usage has a better UX as users
instantly get more information without having to peer into the logs.
This commit uses protobuf’s jsonpb library rather than the built-in
json/encoding library to print the JSOn representation of the responses
from gRPC. By using this library, we are now able to properly display
any values from the response which are “non-truthy” (0, false, etc).
This commit removes the prior work around to display a prefix of the
node’s public key as a vertex. It turns out that if you quote the
string, the it will escape all characters enclosed. This allows us the
drop the hacky “Z” prefix that we used before.
This commit adds an ability to render the channel graph as returned by
the ‘displaygraph’ command. The rendering of the graph itself is
carried about the by the ‘dot’ command which eventually calls out to
graphviz.
Currently the graph is always saved to the same file in the local
directory, but in a later commit the location of the file will be made
configurable.
Finally, the attributes sent to the ‘dot’ command used to render the
graph are still a bit in flux. The parameters will likely be tuned once
the channel graph on testnet grows a bit more.
This commit implements the newly added RPC to decode payment requests
passed over the command line or directly via gRPC.
With this tool, users can now examine payment requests they see in the
wild for diagnostic or debugging purposes.
This commit makes a large number of minor changes concerning API usage
within the deamon to match the latest version on the upstream btcsuite
libraries.
The major changes are the switch from wire.ShaHash to chainhash.Hash,
and that wire.NewMsgTx() now takes a paramter indicating the version of
the transaction to be created.
This commit adds support for the newly added channel graph related
commands: describegraph, getchaninfo, getnodeinfo, queryroute, and
finally getnetworkinfo.
Use [33]byte for graph vertex representation.
Delete unneeded stuff:
1. DeepEqual for graph comparison
2. EdgePath
3. 2-thread BFS
4. Table transfer messages and neighborhood radius
5. Beacons
Refactor:
1. Change ID to Vertex
2. Test use table driven approach
3. Add comments
4. Make graph internal representation private
5. Use wire.OutPoint as EdgeId
6. Decouple routing messages from routing implementation
7. Delete Async methods
8. Delete unneeded channels and priority buffer from manager
9. Delete unneeded interfaces in internal graph realisation
10. Renamed ID to Vertex
This commit modifies the sendpayment message slightly to indicate that
the —dest value should be a hex-encoded compressed public key. This
change is required to stream line the integration of onion routing into
the daemon.
This commit adds a new option to the send payment command. The new
option toggles usage of the debug HTLC R-Hash when sending the
described payment. This flag should be used in conjunction with lnd
nodes that have been started with the `—debughtlc` flag in order to
allow sending payments without first registering invoices.
This commit adds a new RPC command: `channelbalance` which returns the
sum of all available channel capacity across all open channels. The
total balance is currently returned in units of `satoshis`. Additionally
the `networkHarness` has been modified slightly to allow specifying the
additional "extra" command line parameters when creating the initial
seed nodes. Minor refactoring within the integration tests has been
undertaken in order to increase code re-use across tests.
Closes#29.
LIGHT-131, LIGHT-140, LIGHT-138
`lncli showroutingtable` may output routing table as image.
Use graphviz for graph rendering.
Add explicit version dependency for tools. Add error checking.
LIGHT-133, LIGHT-138 Make output of `lncli showrouting table` in
two different formats: table and json.
Instead of sending serialized routing table send list of channels.
This commit updates the response handling of the steaming RPC’s to
account for the fact that multiple messages from the server (state
updates) can now be sent over the stream instead of a single final
update.
Currently, all updates other than the “final” update are ignored by the
cli.
This commit integrates BitFury's current routing functionality into lnd. The
primary ochestration point for the routing sub-system in the routingMgr. The
routingMgr manages all persistent and volatile state related to routing within
the network.
Newly opened channels, either when the initiator or responder are inserted into
the routing table once the channel is fully open. Once new links are inserted
the routingMgr can then perform path selection in order to locate an "optimal"
path to a target destination.
The original project has been migrated to a new user. Currently git
redirects are served from the old repository to the newness. However
since development has witched to this new repository we update our
imports for clarity.
This commit adds glide integration in order to make lnd builds fully
reproducible. Rather than using “go get” users should now manually pull down
the repo, use glide to fetch+install the dependancies, then manually install
all related binaries.
With this change we no longer have to chase dependancies making breaking API
changes under us. We can manually update the managed dependancies once a new
stable release of a defendant package is released.
Additionally, reproducible builds are a strong requirement in order to securely
distribute future major releases of lnd.
We now close the send payment stream after receiving a response.
Otherwise if the RPC server is asynchronously handling requests then,
closing the stream would result in the server returning an EOF error,
terminating the request.
The upstream cli repo has changed the signature for the ‘Action’ to
return an additional error. Thankfully this was done in a backwards
compatible manner.
This commit updates all the command action functions to adhere to the
new function signature.
In the future we’ll have proper dependency management so cases like
this will be avoided all together.
This commit fixes a bug introduced within a prior commit. The prior
commit failed to drollery reverse the txid string taken in as user
input, therefore in order to properly close a channel, the user needed
to manually reverse the txid themselves.
With this change, `wire.NewShaHashFromStr` is used which properly
reverses the string within the constructor. This allows the string
reported not be directly used to the close an active channel.
This commit also corrects a few logging messages.
Currently positional arguments *are not* supported, and all arguments
must be passed via unix-style command line arguments.
In a later commit support for concurrent positional, and manually
specified arguments will be added.
To try uspv, do ./lnd -spv
The remote node is hardcoded in shell.go. If you aren't
running a full node on localhost, specify where to connect to.
Nearby nodes will be much faster but random testnet nodes on the
internet should also work.
