DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The **waitsendpay** RPC command polls or waits for the status of an
|
|
|
|
|
outgoing payment that was initiated by a previous **sendpay**
|
|
|
|
|
invocation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2019-12-12 11:57:07 +01:00
|
|
|
The *partid* argument must match that of the **sendpay** command.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2019-08-10 01:54:18 +02:00
|
|
|
Optionally the client may provide a *timeout*, an integer in seconds,
|
|
|
|
|
for this RPC command to return. If the *timeout* is provided and the
|
|
|
|
|
given amount of time passes without the payment definitely succeeding or
|
|
|
|
|
definitely failing, this command returns with a 200 error code (payment
|
|
|
|
|
still in progress). If *timeout* is not provided this call will wait
|
|
|
|
|
indefinitely.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Indicating a *timeout* of 0 effectively makes this call a pollable query
|
|
|
|
|
of the status of the payment.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If the payment completed with success, this command returns with
|
|
|
|
|
success. Otherwise, if the payment completed with failure, this command
|
|
|
|
|
returns an error.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
RETURN VALUE
|
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On success, an object similar to the output of **listsendpays** will be
|
|
|
|
|
returned. This object will have a *status* field that is the string
|
|
|
|
|
*"complete"*.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On error, and even if the error occurred from a node other than the
|
|
|
|
|
final destination, the route table will no longer be updated. Use the
|
|
|
|
|
*exclude* parameter of the `getroute` command to ignore the failing
|
|
|
|
|
route.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following error codes may occur:
|
|
|
|
|
- -1: Catchall nonspecific error.
|
|
|
|
|
- 200: Timed out before the payment could complete.
|
|
|
|
|
- 202: Unparseable onion reply. The *data* field of the error will
|
|
|
|
|
have an *onionreply* field, a hex string representation of the raw
|
|
|
|
|
onion reply.
|
|
|
|
|
- 203: Permanent failure at destination. The *data* field of the error
|
|
|
|
|
will be routing failure object.
|
|
|
|
|
- 204: Failure along route; retry a different route. The *data* field
|
|
|
|
|
of the error will be routing failure object.
|
|
|
|
|
- 208: A payment for *payment\_hash* was never made and there is
|
|
|
|
|
nothing to wait for.
|
|
|
|
|
- 209: The payment already failed, but the reason for failure was not
|
|
|
|
|
stored. This should only occur when querying failed payments on very
|
|
|
|
|
old databases.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A routing failure object has the fields below:
|
|
|
|
|
- *erring\_index*: The index of the node along the route that reported
|
|
|
|
|
the error. 0 for the local node, 1 for the first hop, and so on.
|
|
|
|
|
- *erring\_node*: The hex string of the pubkey id of the node that
|
|
|
|
|
reported the error.
|
|
|
|
|
- *erring\_channel*: The short channel ID of the channel that has the
|
|
|
|
|
error (or the final channel if the destination raised the error).
|
|
|
|
|
- *erring\_direction*: The direction of traversing the
|
|
|
|
|
*erring\_channel*:
|
|
|
|
|
- *failcode*: The failure code, as per BOLT \#4.
|
|
|
|
|
- *failcodename*: The human-readable name corresponding to *failcode*,
|
|
|
|
|
if known.
