### Installation
You need to have the futures python library installed to be able to use pylightning:
```
pip install futures
```
### Example
```py
from pylightning import LightningRpc
import random
# Create two instances of the LightningRpc object using two different c-lightning daemons on your computer
l1 = LightningRpc("/tmp/lightning1/lightning-rpc")
l5 = LightningRpc("/tmp/lightning5/lightning-rpc")
info5 = l5.getinfo()
print(info5)
# Create invoice for test payment
invoice = l5.invoice(100, "lbl{}".format(random.random()), "testpayment")
print(invoice)
# Get route to l1
route = l1.getroute(info5['id'], 100, 1)
print(route)
# Pay invoice
print(l1.sendpay(route['route'], invoice['payment_hash']))
```
