In this commit, we modify the AbandonChannel REST endpoint to avoid
conflicting with the CloseChannel's. Otherwise, if a debug build of lnd
is being used, there's no way of closing channels through the REST API
as it's been overwritten by AbandonChannel.
In this commit, we remove the unnecessary NewWitnessAddress RPC. We do
this as, at the moment, we only expose the wallet to generate witness
addresses. Now that the RPC has been removed, its REST endpoint has been
assigned to the NewAddress RPC, which should be the de facto way of
having the wallet generate any type of supported address.
Fixes#1986.
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 extend the current SubscribeInvoice streaming RPC
call. We add two new values to the InvoiceSubscription message:
add_index and settle_index. These fields have also been added to the
current Invoice message. Each time a new invoice is added, the add index
will be incremented. Each time a new invoice is settled the settle index
will be incremented. The new field on the InvoiceSubscription message
allow callers to specify the last add index and the last settle index
they know of. With this new addition, callers will now be able to
reliably receive notifications for new received payments.
Care has been taken to ensure that these changes are backwards
compatible. If callers don't specify either of the new fields, then they
won't receive any notification backlog at all.
Fixes#862.
In this commit, we add a new method to the RPC service:
ForwardingHistory. This method will allow callers to query for the
completed payment circuits in a particular time slice, skip a series of
events, and also paginate within a time slice.
In this commit, we revamp the WalletUnlocker service to now have a
two-stage init process.
The first (optional) is for the user instantiating a new lnd instance to
call the GenSeed method with an optional aezeed passphrase. The response
to this will be a freshly generated aezeed mnemonic along with the
original enciphered seed.
The second step will be the actual wallet initaliztion. By separating
this step from seed generation, UI's will be able to ensure that the
user has written down the seed, before proceeding and committing the
seed to the internal wallet. The new method InitWallet accepts a wallet
passphrase, the aezeed mnemonic, and the optional passphrase.
This commit changes the listinvoices and lookupinvoice endpoints to
avoid collisions when making requests.
We can still retrieve a list of pending invoices with `listinvoices` by
appending the parameter `pending_only=true` to the request URL.
This commit renames the UpdateFee RPC call together
with associated types to UpdateChannelPolicy. In addition
to fees, now also timelock delta can be specified using
this call.
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 modify the OpenChannel, CloseChannel, SendCoins, and
SendMany RPC’s to be able to allow users to manually specify their
fees. Users can either specify a target number of confirmations, or a
target value for manual sat/byte.
This commit adds the service WalletUnlocker, which is to be used
for creating a wallet password at first time startup, and unlocking
the wallet. The service exposes the RPC methods CreateWallet and
UnlockWallet.
This commit adds to new RPC’s to the Lightning service: UpdateFees and
FeeReport. Additionally, we also update to the latest version of protc,
golang protobuf, and the gRPC gateway.
This commit adds some additional fields to the PendingChannels RPC s.t
users will be able to use the RPC to gain a complete view w.r.t where
all the funds within the daemon are, and how soon they can be
retrieved.
The following information is now returned:
* all channels pending open
* all channels pending cooperative close
* all channels pending force close
This commit converts the previous QueryRoute command to a new command:
QueryRoutes. This command is identical to QueryRoute other than the
fact that it’s able to return multiple routes rather than a single
route.
This commit adds synchronous version of the RPC’s to send payments over
channels and open new channels. The previous async versions of these
RPC calls have been removed from the REST interface.
Additionally for these two RPC calls any field which accepted byte
slices now also accept a variant of the field which is a hex-encoded
string.
The OpenChannelSync RPC is intended to be used along with either the
ListChannels or PendingChannels RPC to poll for a channels existence or
non-existence as a signal that the channel is finally open.
This commit adds a REST interface to the existing gRPC server by
employing a simple http proxy auto-generated from the existing protobuf
files. Currently full-support for any streaming RPC’s are currently
untested. In addition to auto-generating a REST proxy server, a
swagger.json is also generated which allows for gRPC-like native
objects with higher-level clients, and also for auto-generated
documentation.
Due to limitations with accepting raw byte strings as parameters, some
RPC’s have been modified to take both raw-bytes and string arguments.
Additionally a new RPC has been added ‘NewWitnessAddress’ since the
proxy doesn’t currently support enum-based arguments.
Currently the proxy server is embedded within the daemon as an active
HTTP server, however we may want to package the proxy server as a
separate binary in the future. Similarly, we may want to add additional
configuration information which controls the optional inclusion of the
REST proxy.
Atm, just like the current gRPC interface, the REST API is fully
unauthenticated. Before moving to an initial alpha release after making
the necessary changes to meet the spec drafted in Milan, authentication
of the RPC interfaces will be addressed.
