DESCRIPTION
-----------
The **sendinvoice** RPC command creates and sends an invoice to the
issuer of an *offer* for it to pay: the offer must contain
*send_invoice*; see lightning-fetchinvoice(7).
fetchinvoice: try to connect to note if we can't find a path for messages. This also adds a `fetchinvoice-noconnect` option to suppress it too. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Changelog-EXPERIMENTAL: `fetchinvoice` and `sendinvoice` will connect directly if they can't find an onionmessage route. Fixes: #4624
2021-07-01 06:28:57 +02:00
If **fetchinvoice-noconnect** is not specified in the configuation, it
will connect to the destination in the (currently common!) case where it
cannot find a route which supports `option_onion_messages`.

*offer* is the bolt12 offer string beginning with "lno1".
*label* is the unique label to use for this invoice.
*msatoshi* is optional: it is required if the *offer* does not specify
an amount at all, or specifies it in a different currency. Otherwise
you may set it (e.g. to provide a tip), and if not it defaults to the
amount contained in the offer (multiplied by *quantity* if any).
*timeout* is how many seconds to wait for the offering node to pay the
sendinvoice: don't allow separate invoice and command timeouts. It was too confusing, and can be added later if desired. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

invoice or return an error, default 90 seconds. This will also be the
timeout on the invoice that is sent.

*quantity* is optional: it is required if the *offer* specifies
*quantity_min* or *quantity_max*, otherwise it is not allowed.

make-schema: don't include tools/fromschema.py in SHASUMS We were including the entire list of prerequisites when generating a shastamp, which for schemas includes the `tools/fromschema.py` doc. This meant all of our shasums were updating anytime this tool file changed. Instead, we just include the first prerequisite.
