In this commit, we add two new cli commands: exportchanbackup and
restorechanbackup. These two commands allow users to export backups
(single or multi) for one or all channels, and also restore these
backups (single or multi) from a file to attempt to recover the
channels.
Additionally, we extend the `lncli create` call to also accept these
backups so users can have a single command to restore both their
on-chain and off-chain funds.
Increases the default window from 250 to 2.5k. Many
users have reported attempting recovery with the
default value only to find an empty wallet. This
change should help ensure that the first recovery
attempt succeeds for the majority of nodes that
have modest load. It might prudent to consider
increasing this value further in the future if
the issue persists or average node age increases.
In this commit, we add a new flag to the sendcoins command that allows
callers to sweep all funds out of the daemon's wallet. This CANNOT be
set at the same time that an amount is specified.
In this commit, we increase the gRPC block size from 4MB to 50MB.
Recently, the output of `lncli describegraph` has hit the block size cap
due to the expansion of the mainnet graph. Without this attempts to
fetch the graph returns an error of:
```
[lncli] rpc error: code = ResourceExhausted desc = grpc: received message larger than max (4246753 vs. 4194304)
```
With this commit, we give ourselves some breathing room. It's important
to note that the max message size limit is a _client side_ setting. As a
result, any developers driving `lnd` with gRPC will also need to raise
their block size limit as well if they wish to fetch the graph over
gRPC.
Returns a brief json summary of each utxo found by calling
ListUnspentWitness in the wallet. The two arguments are the
minimum and maximum number of conrfirmations (0=include
unconfirmed)
Move num_inactive_channels closer to num_active_channel,
best_header_timestamp closer to block_hash/block_height and version as
first item in the list.
Private and public channels which weren't announced yet are returned only
if the flag is set.
Note: this changes the default output of describegraph which used to
return all channels known to node.
Using AbandonChannel, a channel can be abandoned. This means
removing all state without any on-chain or off-chain action.
A close summary is the only thing that is stored in the db after
abandoning.
A specific close type Abandoned is added. Abandoned channels
can be retrieved via the ClosedChannels RPC.
In this commit, we ensure that we're able to properly parse the cert and
macaroon paths for all relevant config variants. Before this commit, it
would be the case that the macaroon path ended up empty if a user wasn't
running the default (mainnet, lnddir) settings. In this commit, we
remedy this by parsing each of the two (cert+macaroon) paths
independently.
- Extend SendRequest and QueryRoutesRequest protos
- newRoute function takes fee limit and cuts off routes that exceed it
- queryRoutes, payInvoice and sendPayment commands take the feeLimit inputs and pass them down to newRoute
- When no feeLimit is included, don't enforce any feeLimits at all (by setting feeLimit to maxValue)
In this commit we modify the existing sendtoroutes command such that
users can either specify the route over stdin (using the special '-'
flag), via the keyword argument, or via the positional argument.
Since we're now able to create a base LND directory that no longer lives
under the OS specific application data directory, we modify
cleanAndExpandPath to replace the `~` in a path to the current user's
home directory, rather than the user's application data directory.
In this commit, we introduce a new flag `--lnddir` that allows us to
set a different base directory, other than the OS specific application
data directory, for all related lnd files and directories.
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.
