It is better to replace bash shell with potentially long-running
last script command. This way the running command will receive all
potential unix process signals directly.
A concrete example which motivated this change:
Exec of btcd is needed for graceful shutdown of btcd during
`docker-compose down`. Docker Compose properly sends this signal to our
start-btcd.sh bash shell but it is not further signalled to the running
btcd process. Docker Compose then kills whole container forcefully after
some timeout.
An alternative solution would be to trap SIGTERM in our bash script and
forward it to running btcd. Which would be IMO ugly and error prone.
`lncli` command `walletbalance` apparently no longer supports the `--witness_only` argument. With the deprecated argument:
```
root@8a9ad8528430:/go/src/github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd# lncli walletbalance --witness_only=true
Incorrect Usage: flag provided but not defined: -witness_only
NAME:
lncli walletbalance - Compute and display the wallet's current balance
USAGE:
lncli walletbalance [arguments...]
[lncli] flag provided but not defined: -witness_only
```
After removing that argument:
```
root@8a9ad8528430:/go/src/github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd# lncli walletbalance
{
"total_balance": "1505000000000",
"confirmed_balance": "1505000000000",
"unconfirmed_balance": "0"
}
```
* Update go version for Docker `lnd` build
Per #815, https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/blob/master/htlcswitch/circuit.go#L21 depends on go version >= 1.9

* Use latest go version 1.10
Pre review feedback, use the latest version of go.
In this commit we restore the prior workflow of the docker-compose set
up with have to allow developers to quickly erect an lnd+btcd instance.
In a recent change, we now prompt the user for a passphrase that will
be used to encrypt the wallet database. This affected the prior
workflow, as it assumed set up was non-interactive.
In this commit we restore the prior behavior as we now start the lnd
nodes with --noencryptwallet.
In this commit, we fix a lingering issue in the execution
of the lnd container, after the new macaroon based
authentication was added. With the new authentication
feature, if the datadir was changed, but `lncli` wasn't
updated to point to the macaroon path, then none of
the commands would work.
To fix this, we simply omit setting the data directory.
Changes the second docker-compose command to "run" instead of "up",
since this was failing for several people. Also removes the use of
the --num_conf flag to lncli openchannel, as this was removed in
0dfe733.
Error `connection refused` was thrown when user tries to get "Alice" to
connect to "Bob" node due to port mismatch introduced in this change [1]
here.
This commit updates the port value to reflect the new change introduced in
[1].

* Update references to old port value
* Omit specifying port during lncli connect
* Fix typo
This commit revamps the existing docker configuration to allow for
developer’s to easily bring up/down a Lightning Network testbed
environment.
Configuration related bugs within the prior swarm set up have been
fixed. The launched lnd nodes are now able to properly communicate with
the primary btcd node over RPC. The auto-generated RPC script has been
scrapped in favor of hard-coding a developer-only set of RPC
credentials. With this change, it’s now possible to add/remove
additional lnd nodes in order to test more complex scenarios.
Additionally, the containers now build off of the latest Go version
(1.7).
This commit adds two Dockerfiles, along with a docker-compose file
which links the two docker files together allowing for single-command
deployment.
Using the docker-compose file, two containers are deployed. One running
btcd, and the other running lnd. Both containers share the same shared
volume mounted to the file system in order to allow land to read btcd’s
certificates for the TLS RPC connections.
Additionally, the btcd instance comes will an automatic RPC
configuration generated allowing one to use btcctl out of the box via
calls to “docker-compose exec btcctl …”.
