|
|
- JSON-RPC `fundchannel` now accepts an optional 'close_to' param, a bitcoin address that the channel funding should be sent to on close. Requires `opt_upfront_shutdownscript` ([4132](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4132))
|
|

|
|
|
### Deprecated
|
|
|
|
Note: You should always set `allow-deprecated-apis=false` to test for changes.
|
|
|
|

|
|
- Plugin: Relative plugin paths are not relative to startup (deprecated v0.7.2.1) ([4049](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4049))
|
|
|
|
### Fixed
|
|

|
|
- Plugin: Regression with SQL statement expansion that could result in invalid statements being passed to the `db_write` hook. ([4090](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4090))
|
|
- build: no longer spuriously regenerates generated sources due to differences in `readdir`(3) sort order. ([4053](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4053))
|
|

### Changed
|
|
|
|
- Build: we no longer require extra Python modules to build. ([3994](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3994))
|
|
- Build: SQLite3 is no longer a hard build requirement. C-Lightning can now be built to support only the PostgreSQL back-end. ([3999](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3999))
|
|
- gossipd: The `gossipd` is now a lot quieter, and will log only when a message changed our network topology. ([3981](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3981))
|
|
- Protocol: We now make MPP-aware routehints in invoices. ([3913](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3913))
|
|
- onchaind: We now scorch the earth on theft attempts, RBFing up our penalty transaction as blocks arrive without a penalty transaction getting confirmed. ([3870](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3870))
|
|
- Protocol: `fundchannel` now shuffles inputs and outputs, and no longer follows BIP69. ([3769](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3769))
|
|
- JSON-RPC: `withdraw` now randomizes input and output order, not BIP69. ([3867](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3867))
|
|
- JSON-RPC: `txprepare` reservations stay across restarts: use `fundpsbt`/`reservepsbt`/`unreservepsbt` ([3867](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3867))
|
|
- config: `min-capacity-sat` is now stricter about checking usable capacity of channels. ([3969](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3969))
|
|
- Protocol: Ignore (and log as "unusual") repeated `WIRE_CHANNEL_REESTABLISH` messages, to be compatible with buggy peer software that sometimes does this. ([3964](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3964))
|
|
- contrib: startup_regtest.sh `startup_ln` now takes a number of nodes to create as a parameter ([3992](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3992))
|
|
- JSON-RPC: `invoice` no longer accepts zero amounts (did you mean "any"?) ([3974](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3974))
|
|
- Protocol: channels now pruned after two weeks unless both peers refresh it (see lightning-rfc#767) ([3959](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3959))
|
|
- Protocol: bolt11 invoices always include CLTV fields (see lightning-rfc#785) ([3959](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3959))
|
|
- config: the default CLTV expiry is now 34 blocks, and final expiry 18 blocks as per new BOLT recommendations. ([3959](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3959))
|
|
- Plugins: Builtin plugins are now marked as important, and if they crash, will cause C-lightning to stop as well. ([3890](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3890))
|
|
- Protocol: Funding timeout is now based on the header count reported by the bitcoin backend instead of our current blockheight which might be lower. ([3897](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3897))
|
|
- JSON-RPC: `delinvoice` will now report specific error codes: 905 for failing to find the invoice, 906 for the invoice status not matching the parameter. ([3853](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3853))
|
|
|
|
### Deprecated
|
|
|
|
Note: You should always set `allow-deprecated-apis=false` to test for changes.
|
|
|
|
- Plugins: `bcli` replacements should note that `sendrawtransaction` now has a second required Boolean argument, `allowhighfees`, which if `true`, means ignore any fee limits and just broadcast the transaction. ([3870](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3870))
|
|
- JSON-RPC: `listsendpays` will no longer add `null` if we don't know the `amount_msat` for a payment. ([3883](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3883))
|
|
- Plugins: `getmanifest` without any parameters; plugins should accept any parameters for future use. ([3883](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3883))
|
|
|
|
### Removed
|
|
|
|
- JSON-RPC: txprepare `destination` `satoshi` argument form removed (deprecated v0.7.3) ([3867](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3867))
|
|
|
|
### Fixed
|
|
|
|
- Plugins: `pay` `presplit` modifier now supports large payments without exhausting the available HTLCs. ([3986](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3986))
|
|
- Plugins: `pay` corrects a case where we put the sub-payment value instead of the *total* value in the `total_msat` field of a multi-part payment. ([3914](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3914))
|
|
- Plugins: `pay` is less aggressive with forgetting routehints. ([3914](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3914))
|
|
- Plugins: `pay` no longer ignores routehints if the payment exceeds 10,000 satoshi. This is particularly bad if the payee is only reachable via routehints in an invoice. ([3908](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3908))
|
|
- Plugins: `pay` limits the number of splits if the payee seems to have a low number of channels that can enter it, given the max-concurrent-htlcs limit. ([3936](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3936))
|
|
- Plugins: `pay` will now make reliable multi-part payments to nodes it doesn't have a node_announcement for. ([4035](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4035))
|
|
- JSON-RPC: significant speedups for plugins which create large JSON replies (e.g. listpays on large nodes). ([3957](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3957))
|
|
- doc: Many missing manual pages were completed ([3938](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3938))
|
|
- Build: Fixed compile error on macos ([4019](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4019))
|
|
- pyln: Fixed HTLCs hanging indefinitely if the hook function raises an exception. A safe fallback result is now returned instead. ([4031](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4031))
|
|
- Protocol: We now hang up if peer doesn't respond to init message after 60 seconds. ([4039](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4039))
|
|
- elementsd: PSBTs include correct witness_utxo struct for elements transactions ([4033](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4033))
|
|
- cli: fixed crash with `listconfigs` in `-H` mode ([4012](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4012))
|
|
- Plugins: `bcli` significant speedups for block synchronization ([3985](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3985))
|
|
- Build: On systems with multiple installed versions of the PostgreSQL client library, C-Lightning might link against the wrong version or fail to find the library entirely. `./configure` now uses `pg_config` to locate the library. ([3995](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3995))
|
|
- Build: On some operating systems the postgresql library would not get picked up. `./configure` now uses `pg_config` to locate the headers. ([3991](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3991))
|
|
- libplugin: significant speedups for reading large JSON replies (e.g. calling listsendpays on large nodes, or listchannels / listnodes). ([3957](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3957))
|

|
|
- plugin: `pay` will split large payments into parts of approximately 10k sat if the recipient supports the `basic_mpp` option ([3809](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3809))
|
|

|
|
- plugin: Added a new `commitment_revocation` hook that provides the plugin with penalty transactions for all revoked transactions, e.g., to push them to a watchtower. ([3659](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3659))
|
|
- JSON-API: `listchannels` now shows channel `features`. ([3685](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3685))
|
|

|
|
- JSON-RPC: `sendonion` has a new optional `msatoshi` that is used to annotate the payment with the amount received by the destination. ([3878](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3881))
|
|
|
|
### Changed
|
|
|
|
- JSON-RPC: `fundchannel_cancel` no longer requires its undocumented `channel_id` argument after `fundchannel_complete`. ([3787](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3787))
|
|
- JSON-RPC: `fundchannel_cancel` will now succeed even when executed while a `fundchannel_complete` is ongoing; in that case, it will be considered as cancelling the funding *after* the `fundchannel_complete` succeeds. ([3778](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3778))

### Fixed
|
|
|
|
- Plugins: A crashing plugin will no longer cause a hook call to be delayed indefinitely ([3539](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3539))

|
|
- Plugins: Plugins no longer linger indefinitely if their process terminates ([3539](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3539))

|
|
- invoice: The invoice parser assumed that an amount without a multiplier was denominated in msatoshi instead of bitcoins. ([3636](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3636))
|
|
- pay: The `pay`-plugin was generating non-contiguous shadow routes ([3617](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3617))
|
|

- tools: A new command, `guesstoremote`, is added to the hsmtool. It is meant to be used to recover funds after an unilateral close of a channel with `option_static_remotekey` enabled. ([3292](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3292))
|
|
|
|
### Changed
|
|
|
|
:warning: The default network and the default location of the lightning home directory changed. Please make sure that the configuration, key file and database are moved into the network-specific subdirectory.
|
|
|
|
- config: Default network (new installs) is now bitcoin, not testnet. ([3268](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3268))
|
|
- config: Lightning directory, plugins and files moved into `<network>/` subdir ([3268](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3268))
|
|
- JSON API: The `fundchannel` command now tries to connect to the peer before funding the channel, no need to `connect` before `fundchannel` if an address for the peer is known ([3314](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3314))
|
|
- JSON API: `htlc_accepted` hook has `type` (currently `legacy` or `tlv`) and other fields directly inside `onion`. ([3167](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3167))
|
|
- JSON API: `lightning_` prefixes removed from subdaemon names, including in listpeers `owner` field. ([3241](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3241))
|
|
- JSON API: `listconfigs` now structures plugins and include their options ([3283](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3283))
|
|
- JSON API: the `raw_payload` now includes the first byte, i.e., the realm byte, of the payload as well. This allows correct decoding of a TLV payload in the plugins. ([3261](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3261))
|
|
- logging: formatting made uniform: [NODEID-]SUBSYSTEM: MESSAGE ([3241](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3241))
|
|
- options: `config` and `<network>/config` read by default. ([3268](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3268))
|
|
- options: log-level can now specify different levels for different subsystems. ([3241](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3241))
|
|
- protocol: The TLV payloads for the onion packets are no longer considered an experimental feature and generally available. ([3260](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3260))
|
|
- quirks: We'll now reconnect and retry if we get an error on an established channel. This works around lnd sending error messages that may be non-fatal. ([3340](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3340))
|
|
|
|
:warning: If you don't have a config file, you now may need to specify the network to `lightning-cli` ([3268](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3268))
|
|
|
|
### Deprecated
|
|
|
|
Note: You should always set `allow-deprecated-apis=false` to test for changes.
|
|
|
|
- JSON API: `listconfigs` duplicated "plugin" paths ([3283](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3283))
|
|
- JSON API: `htlc_accepted` hook `per_hop_v0` object deprecated, as is `short_channel_id` for the final hop. ([3167](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3167))
|
|
|
|
### Removed
|
|
|
|
- JSON: `listpays` won't shown payments made via sendpay without a bolt11 string, or before 0.7.0. ([3309](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3309))
|
|
|
|
### Fixed
|
|
|
|
- JSON API: #3231 `listtransactions` crash ([3256](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3256))
|
|
- JSON API: `listconfigs` appends '...' to truncated config options. ([3268](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3268))
|
|
- `pyln-client` now handles unicode characters in JSON-RPC requests and responses correctly. ([3018](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3018))
|
|
- bitcoin: If bitcoind goes backwards (e.g. reindex) refuse to start (unless forced with --rescan). ([3274](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3274))
|
|
- bug: `gossipd` crash on huge number of unknown channels. ([3273](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3273))
|
|
- gossip: No longer discard most `node_announcements` (fixes #3194) ([3262](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3262))
|
|
- options: We disable all dns even on startup the scan for bogus dns servers, if `--always-use-proxy` is set true ([3251](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3251))
|
|
- protocol: "Bad commitment signature" closing channels when we sent back-to-back update_fee messages across multiple reconnects. ([3329](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3329))
|
|
- protocol: Unlikely corner case is simultanous HTLCs near balance limits fixed. ([3286](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/3286))

## [0.7.2.1] - 2019-08-19: "Nakamoto's Pre-approval by US Congress"
|
|
|
|
This release was named by Antoine Poinsot @darosior.
|
|
|
|
(Technically a .1 release, as it contains last-minute fixes after 0.7.2 was tagged)
|
|
|
|
### Added
|
|
|
|
- JSON API: a new command `plugin` allows one to manage plugins without restarting `lightningd`.
|
|
- Plugin: a new boolean field can be added to a plugin manifest, `dynamic`. It allows a plugin to tell if it can be started or stopped "on-the-fly".
|
|
- Plugin: a new boolean field is added to the `init`'s `configuration`, `startup`. It allows a plugin to know if it has been started on `lightningd` startup.
|
|
- Plugin: new notifications `invoice_payment`, `forward_event` and `channel_opened`.
|
|
- Protocol: `--enable-experimental-features` adds gossip query extensions
|
|
aka https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lightning-rfc/pull/557
|
|
- contrib: new `bootstrap-node.sh` to connect to random mainnet nodes.
|
|
- JSON API: `listfunds` now returns also `funding_output` for `channels`
|
|
- Plugin: plugins can now suggest `lightning-cli` default to -H for responses.
|
|
- Lightningd: add support for `signet` networks using the `--network=signet` or `--signet` startup option
|
|
|
|
### Changed
|
|
|
|
- Build: now requires `python3-mako` to be installed, i.e. `sudo apt-get install python3-mako`
|
|
- JSON API: `close` optional arguments have changed: it now defaults to unilateral close after 48 hours.
|
|
- Plugin: if the config directory has a `plugins` subdirectory, those are loaded.
|
|
- lightningd: check bitcoind version when setup topology and confirm the version not older than v0.15.0.
|
|
- Protocol: space out reconnections on startup if we have more than 5 peers.
|
|
- JSON API: `listforwards` includes the 'payment_hash' field.
|
|
- Plugin: now plugins always run from the `lightning-dir` for easy local storage.
|
|
|
|
### Deprecated
|
|
|
|
Note: You should always set `allow-deprecated-apis=false` to test for
|
|
changes.
|
|
|
|
- Plugin: using startup-relative paths for `plugin` and `plugin-dir`: they're now relative to `lightning-dir`.
|
|
- JSON API: `listforwards` removed dummy (zero) fields for `out_msat`, `fee_msat`, `in_channel` and `out_channel` if unknown (i.e. deleted from db, or `status` is `local-failed`.
|
|
|
|
### Removed
|
|
|
|
### Fixed
|
|
|
|
- Plugin: `pay` no longer crashes on timeout.
|
|
- Plugin: `disconnect` notifier now called if remote side disconnects.
|
|
- channeld: ignore, and simply try reconnecting if lnd sends "sync error".
|
|
- Protocol: we now correctly ignore unknown odd messages.
|
|
- wallet: We will now backfill blocks below our wallet start height on demand when we require them to verify gossip messages. This fixes an issue where we would not remove channels on spend that were opened below that start height because we weren't tracking the funding output.
|
|
- Detect when we're still syncing with bitcoin network: don't send or receive
|
|
HTLCs or allow `fundchannel`.
|
|
- Rare onchaind error where we don't recover our own unilateral close with multiple same-preimage HTLCs fixed.

(Issue [#2409](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/issues/2409))
|
|
- JSON API: `listchannels` has new fields `htlc_minimum_msat` and `htlc_maximum_msat`.
|
|
|
|
### Changed
|
|
|

|
|
- JSON API: `invoice` expiry defaults to 7 days, and can have s/m/h/d/w suffixes.

|
|
- Build: Non-developer builds are now done with "-Og" optimization.
|
|
- JSON API: `pay` will no longer return failure until it is no longer retrying; previously it could "timeout" but still make the payment.
|
|
- JSON API: the command objects that `help` outputs now contain a new string field : `category` (can be "bitcoin", "channels", "network", "payment", "plugins", "utility", "developer" for native commands, or any other new category set by a plugin).
|
|
- Plugin: a plugin can now set the category of a newly created RPC command. This possibility has been added to libplugin.c and pylightning.
|
|
- lightning-cli: the human readable help is now more human and more readable : commands are sorted alphabetically and ordered by categories.
|
|
|
|
### Deprecated
|
|
|
|
Note: You should always set `allow-deprecated-apis=false` to test for
|
|
changes.
|
|
|

|
`option_data_loss_protect` properly.
|
|
- `--bind-addr=<path>` fixed for nodes using local sockets (eg. testing).
|
|
- Unannounced local channels were forgotten for routing on restart until reconnection occurred.
|
|
- lightning-cli: arguments containing `"` now succeed, rather than causing JSON errors.
|
|
- Protocol: handle lnd sending more messages before `reestablish`; don't fail channel, and handle older lnd's spurious empty commitments.
|
|
- Fixed `fundchannel` crash when we have many UTXOs and we skip unconfirmed ones.
|
|
- lightningd: fixed occasional hang on `connect` when peer had sent error.
|

- JSON RPC: `decodeinvoice` and `pay` now handle unknown invoice fields properly.
|
|
- JSON API: `waitsendpay` (PAY_STOPPED_RETRYING) error handler now returns valid JSON
|
|

### Deprecated
|
|
|
|
Note: You should always set `allow-deprecated-apis=false` to test for
|
|
changes.
|
|
|
|
We recommend that you transition to the reading the new JSON `_msat`
|
|
fields for your own sanity checking, and that you similarly
|
|
provide appropriate suffixes for JSON input fields.
|
|
|
|
- JSON API: `short_channel_id` fields in JSON commands with `:` separators (use `x` instead).
|
|
- JSON API: `pay` `description` is deprecated, as is support for BOLT11 strings using `h`.
|

- JSON API: `sendpay` parameter `description` and `waitsendpay` and `sendpay` output fields `description` (now `label`).
|
|
- JSON API: `listpayments` has been deprecated (you probably want `listpays`)
|
|
|
|
### Removed
|
|
|
|
- JSON API: the `waitsendpay` command error return no longer includes `channel_update`
|
|
|
|
### Fixed
|
|
|
|
- Protocol: handling `query_channel_range` for large numbers of blocks
|
|
(eg. 4 billion) was slow due to a bug.
|
|
- Fixed occasional deadlock with peers when exchanging huge amounts of gossip.
|
|
- Fixed a crash when running in daemon-mode due to db filename overrun (#2348)
|
|
- Handle lnd sending premature 'funding_locked' message when we're expected 'reestablish';
|
|
we used to close channel if this happened.
|
|
- Cleanup peers that started opening a channel, but then disconnected. These
|
|
would leave a dangling entry in the DB that would cause this peer to be
|
|
unable to connect. (PR #2371)
|
|
- You can no longer make giant unpayable "wumbo" invoices.
|
|
- CLTV of total route now correctly evaluated when finding best route.
|
|
- `riskfactor` arguments to `pay` and `getroute` now have an effect.
|
|
- Fixed the version of bip32 private_key to BIP32_VER_MAIN_PRIVATE: we used
|
|
BIP32_VER_MAIN_PRIVATE for bitcoin/litecoin mainnet, and BIP32_VER_TEST_PRIVATE
|
|
for others. (PR #2436)

|
### Added
|
|
|
|
- JSON API: New command `check` checks the validity of a JSON API call without running it.
|
|
- JSON API: `getinfo` now returns `num_peers` `num_pending_channels`,
|
|
`num_active_channels` and `num_inactive_channels` fields.
|
|
- JSON API: use `\n\n` to terminate responses, for simplified parsing (pylightning now relies on this)

|
- JSON API: `fundchannel` now includes an `announce` option, when false it will keep channel private. Defaults to true.
|
|
- JSON API: `listpeers`'s `channels` now includes a `private` flag to indicate if channel is announced or not.
|
|
- JSON API: `invoice` route hints may now include private channels if you have no public ones, unless new option `exposeprivatechannels` is false.
|
|
- Plugins: experimental plugin support for `lightningd`, including option passthrough and JSON-RPC passthrough.
|
|
- Protocol: we now support features `option_static_remotekey` and `gossip_queries_ex` for peers.
|
|
|
|
### Changed
|
|
|
|
- JSON API: `pay` and `decodepay` accept and ignore `lightning:` prefixes.
|
|
- pylightning: Allow either keyword arguments or positional arguments.
|
|
- JSON-RPC: messages are now separated by 2 consecutive newlines.
|
|
- JSON-RPC: `jsonrpc`:`2.0` now included in json-rpc command calls. complies with spec.
|
|
|
|
### Deprecated
|
|
|
|
Note: You should always set `allow-deprecated-apis=false` to test for
|
|
changes.
|
|
|
|
- pylightning: Support for pre-2-newline JSON-RPC (<= 0.6.2 lightningd) is deprecated.
|
|
|
|
### Removed
|
|
|
|
- option_data_loss_protect is now only offered if EXPERIMENTAL_FEATURES is enabled, since it seems incompatible with lnd and has known bugs.
|
|
|
|
### Fixed
|
|
|
|
- JSON API: uppercase invoices now parsed correctly (broken in 0.6.2).
|
|
- JSON API: commands are once again read even if one hasn't responded yet (broken in 0.6.2).
|
|
- Protocol: allow lnd to send `update_fee` before `funding_locked`.
|
|
- Protocol: fix limit on how much funder can send (fee was 1000x too small)
|
|
- Protocol: don't send invalid onion errors if peer says onion was bad.
|
|
- Protocol: don't crash when peer sends a 0-block-expiry HTLC.
|
|
- pylightning: handle multiple simultanous RPC replies reliably.
|
|
- build: we use `--prefix` as handed to `./configure`

## [0.6.2] - 2018-10-20: "The Consensus Loving Nasal Daemon"
|
|
|
|
This release was named by practicalswift.
|
|
|
|
### Added
|
|
|
|
- JSON API: `listpeers` has new field `scratch_txid`: the latest tx in channel.
|
|
- JSON API: `listpeers` has new array `htlcs`: the current live payments.
|
|
- JSON API: `listchannels` has two new fields: `message_flags` and `channel_flags`. This replaces `flags`.
|
|
- JSON API: `invoice` now adds route hint to invoices for incoming capacity (RouteBoost), and warns if insufficient capacity.
|
|
- JSON API: `listforwards` lists all forwarded payments, their associated channels, and fees.
|
|
- JSON API: `getinfo` shows forwarding fees earnt as `msatoshi_fees_collected`.
|
|
- Bitcoind: more parallelism in requests, for very slow nodes.
|
|
- Testing: fixed logging, cleaner interception of bitcoind, minor fixes.
|
|
- Protocol: we set and handle the new `htlc_maximum_msat` channel_update field.
|
|
|
|
### Changed
|
|
|
|
- Protocol: `channel_update` sent to disable channel only if we reject an HTLC.
|
|
- Protocol: we don't send redundant `node_announcement` on every new channel.
|
|
- Config: config file can override `lightning-dir` (makes sense with `--conf`).
|
|
- Config: `--conf` option is now relative to current directory, not `lightning-dir`.
|
|
- lightning-cli: `help <cmd>` prints basic information even if no man page found.
|
|
- JSON API: `getinfo` now reports global statistics about forwarded payments, including total fees earned and amounts routed.
|
|
|
|
### Deprecated
|
|
|
|
Note: You should always set `allow-deprecated-apis=false` to test for
|
|
changes.
|
|
|
|
- JSON RPC: `listchannels`' `flags` field. This has been split into two fields, see Added.
|
|
- JSON RPC: `global_features` and `local_features` fields: use `globalfeatures` and `localfeatures` as per BOLT #1.
|
|
|
|
### Removed
|
|
|
|
- JSON API: the optional 'seed' parameter to `getroute` was removed.
|
|
|
|
### Fixed
|
|
|
|
- Startup: more coherent complaint if daemon already running.
|
|
- Lightningd: correctly save full HTLCs across restarts; fixup old databases.
|
|
- JSON RPC: `getinfo` now shows correct Tor port.
|
|
- JSON RPC: `ping` now works even after one peer fails to respond.
|
|
- JSON RPC: `getroute` `fuzzpercent` and `pay` `maxfeepercent` can now be > 100.
|
|
- JSON RPC: `riskfactor` in `pay` and `getroute` no longer always treated as 1.
|
|
- JSON-RPC: `listpeers` was always reporting 0 for all stats.
|
|
- JSON RPC: `withdraw all` says `Cannot afford transaction` if you have
|
|
absolutely no funds, rather than `Output 0 satoshis would be dust`.
|
|
- Protocol: don't send gossip about closed channels.
|
|
- Protocol: fix occasional deadlock when both peers flood with gossip.
|
|
- Protocol: fix occasional long delay on sending `reply_short_channel_ids_end`.
|
|
- Protocol: re-send `node_announcement` when address/alias/color etc change.
|
|
- Protocol: multiple HTLCs with the same payment_hash are handled correctly.
|
|
- Options: 'autotor' defaults to port 9051 if not specified.

## [0.6.1] - 2018-09-11: "Principled Opposition To Segwit"
|
|
|
|
This release was named by ZmnSCPxj.
|
|
|
|
### Added
|
|
|
|
- Protocol: gossipd now deliberately delays spamming with `channel_update`.
|
|
- Protocol: liveness ping when we commit changes but peer is idle: speeds up
|
|
failures and reduces forced closures.
|
|
- Protocol: `option_data_loss_protect` now supported to protect peers
|
|
against being out-of-date.
|
|
- JSON API: Added description to invoices and payments (#1740).
|
|
- JSON API: `getinfo` has new fields `alias` and `color`.
|
|
- JSON API: `listpeers` has new fields `global_features` and `local_features`.
|
|
- JSON API: `listnodes` has new field `global_features`.
|
|
- JSON API: `ping` command to send a ping to a connected peer.
|
|
- JSON API: `feerates` command to retrieve current fee estimates.
|
|
- JSON API: `withdraw` and `fundchannel` can be given manual feerate.
|
|
- Config: `--conf` option to set config file.
|
|
- Documentation: Added CHANGELOG.md
|
|
- pylightning: RpcError now has `method` and `payload` fields.
|
|
- Sending lightningd a SIGHUP will make it reopen its `log-file`, if any.
|
|
|
|
### Changed
|
|
|
|
- Protocol: Fee estimates are now smoothed over time, to avoid sudden jumps.
|
|
- Config: You can only announce one address if each type (IPv4, IPv6,
|
|
TORv2, TORv3).
|
|
- lightning-cli: the help command for a specific command now runs the
|
|
`man` command.
|
|
- HSM: The HSM daemon now maintains the per-peer secrets, rather than
|
|
handing them out. It's still lax in what it signs though.
|
|
- connectd: A new daemon `lightning_connectd` handles connecting
|
|
to/from peers, instead of `gossipd` doing that itself. `lightning_openingd` now
|
|
handles peers immediately, even if they never actually open a channel.
|
|
- Test: `python-xdist` is now a dependency for tests.
|
|
- Logging: JSON connections no longer spam debug logs.
|
|
- Routing: We no longer consider channels that are not usable either because of
|
|
their capacity or their `htlc_minimum_msat` parameter (#1777)
|
|
- We now try to connect to all known addresses for a peer, not just
|
|
the one given or the first one announced.
|
|
- Crash logs are now placed one-per file like `crash.log.20180822233752`
|
|
- We will no longer allow withdrawing funds or funding channels if we
|
|
do not have a fee estimate (eg. bitcoind not synced); use new `feerate` arg.
|
|
|
|
### Deprecated
|
|
|
|
### Removed
|
|
|
|
- JSON API: `listpeers` results no long have `alias` and `color` fields;
|
|
they're in `listnodes` (we used to internally merge the information).
|
|
- JSON API: `listpeers` will never have `state` field (it accidentally
|
|
used to exist and set to `GOSSIPING` before we opened a channel).
|
|
`connected` will indicate if we're connected, and the `channels`
|
|
array indicates individual channel states (if any).
|
|
- Config: `default-fee-rate` is no longer available; use explicit `feerate`
|
|
option if necessary.
|
|
- Removed all Deprecated options from 0.6.
|
|
|
|
### Fixed
|
|
|
|
- Protocol: `node_announcement` multiple addresses are correctly ordered and uniquified.
|
|
- Protocol: if we can't estimate feerate, be almost infinitely
|
|
tolerant of other side setting fees to avoid unilateral close.
|
|
- JSON API: `listnodes`: now displays node aliases and colors even if they
|
|
don't advertise a network address
|
|
- JSON API: `fundchannel all`: now restricts to 2^24-1 satoshis rather than failing.
|
|
- JSON API: `listnodes`: now correctly prints `addresses` if more than
|
|
one is advertised.
|
|
- Config: `bind-addr` of a publicly accessible network address was announced.
|
|
- When we reconnect and have to retransmit failing HTLCs, the errors weren't
|
|
encrypted by us.
|
|
- `lightningd_config` man page is now installed by `make install`.
|
|
- Fixed crash when shutting down during opening a channel (#1737)
|
|
- Don't lose track of our own output when applying penalty transaction (#1738)
|
|
- Protocol: `channel_update` inside error messages now refers to correct channel.
|
|
- Stripping type prefix from `channel_update`s that are nested in an onion reply
|
|
to be compatible with eclair and lnd (#1730).
|
|
- Failing tests no longer delete the test directory, to allow easier debugging
|
|
(Issue: #1599)
