Expand description
High level lightning structs and impls live here.
You probably want to create a ChannelManager
, and a P2PGossipSync
first.
Then, you probably want to pass them both on to a peer_handler::PeerManager and use that to
create/manage connections and call get_and_clear_pending_events after each action, handling
them appropriately.
When you want to open/close a channel or send a payment, call into your ChannelManager
and
when you want to learn things about the network topology (eg get a route for sending a payment),
call into your P2PGossipSync
.
Modules
Various utilities for building scripts and deriving keys related to channels. These are largely of interest for those implementing chain::keysinterface::Sign message signing by hand.
The top-level channel management and payment tracking stuff lives here.
Utilities to generate inbound payment information in service of invoice creation.
Wire messages, traits representing wire message handlers, and a few error types live here.
Top level peer message handling and socket handling logic lives here.
Abstractions for scripts used in the Lightning Network.
Wire encoding/decoding for Lightning messages according to BOLT #1, and for
custom message through the CustomMessageReader
trait.
Structs
payment_hash type, use to cross-lock hop (C-not exported) as we just use [u8; 32] directly
payment_preimage type, use to route payment between hop (C-not exported) as we just use [u8; 32] directly
payment_secret type, use to authenticate sender to the receiver and tie MPP HTLCs together (C-not exported) as we just use [u8; 32] directly
