DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`openchannel_init` is a low level RPC command which initiates a channel
|
|
|
|
open with a specified peer. It uses the openchannel protocol
|
|
|
|
which allows for interactive transaction construction.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*id* is the node id of the remote peer.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*amount* is the satoshi value that we will contribute to the channel.
|
|
|
|
This value will be _added_ to the provided PSBT in the output which is
|
|
|
|
encumbered by the 2-of-2 script for this channel.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*initialpsbt* is the funded, incomplete PSBT that specifies the UTXOs and
|
|
|
|
change output for our channel contribution. It can be updated,
|
2021-03-11 05:32:48 +01:00
|
|
|
see `openchannel_update`; *initialpsbt* must have at least one input.
|
|
|
|
Must have the Non-Witness UTXO (PSBT\_IN\_NON\_WITNESS\_UTXO) set for
|
|
|
|
every input. An error (code 309) will be returned if this requirement
|
|
|
|
is not met.

*commitment\_feerate* is an optional field. Sets the feerate for
|
2020-09-03 20:01:45 +02:00
|
|
|
commitment transactions: see **fundchannel**.
|
|
|
|
|
2022-11-11 02:44:56 +01:00

|
*funding\_feerate* is an optional field. Sets the feerate for the
|
2020-09-03 20:01:45 +02:00
|
|
|
funding transaction. Defaults to 'opening' feerate.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*announce* is an optional field. Whether or not to announce this channel.
|
|
|
|
|
2022-11-11 02:44:56 +01:00
|
|
|
*close\_to* is a Bitcoin address to which the channel funds should be
|
2021-03-11 05:32:48 +01:00
|
|
|
sent on close. Only valid if both peers have negotiated
|
2020-09-03 20:01:45 +02:00
|
|
|
`option_upfront_shutdown_script`.
|
|
|
|
|
2022-11-11 02:44:56 +01:00
|
|
|
*request\_amt* is an amount of liquidity you'd like to lease from the peer.
|
2021-06-08 23:50:41 +02:00
|
|
|
If peer supports `option_will_fund`, indicates to them to include this
|
2022-11-11 02:44:56 +01:00
|
|
|
much liquidity into the channel. Must also pass in *compact\_lease*.

*compact\_lease* is a compact represenation of the peer's expected
|
2021-07-02 23:19:47 +02:00
|
|
|
channel lease terms. If the peer's terms don't match this set, we will
|
|
|
|
fail to open the channel.
