Rusty Russell 56dfbec6bd listpays: new command to summarize pay commands.
This is to future-proof against multi-part-payments: the low-level commands
will start returning multiple results once we have that, so prepare
transition plan now.

.SH "NAME"
lightning-listpays \- Command for querying payment status
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.sp
\fBlistpays\fR [bolt11]
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.sp
The \fBlistpay\fR RPC command gets the status of all \fIpay\fR commands, or a single one if \fIbolt11\fR is specified\&.
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
.sp
On success, an array of objects is returned\&. Each object contains:
.PP
\fIbolt11\fR
.RS 4
the
\fIbolt11\fR
argument given to
\fIpay\fR
(see below for exceptions)\&.
.RE
.PP
\fIstatus\fR
.RS 4
one of
\fIcomplete\fR,
\fIfailed\fR
or
\fIpending\fR\&.
.RE
.PP
\fIpayment_preimage\fR
.RS 4
(if
\fIstatus\fR
is
\fIcomplete\fR) proves payment was received\&.
.RE
.PP
\fIlabel\fR
.RS 4
optional
\fIlabel\fR, if provided to
\fIpay\fR\&.
.RE
.PP
\fIamount_sent_msat\fR
.RS 4
total amount sent, in "NNNmsat" format\&.
.RE
.sp
For old payments (pre\-0\&.7) we didn\(cqt save the \fIbolt11\fR string, so in its place are three other fields:
.PP
\fIpayment_hash\fR
.RS 4
the hash of the
\fIpayment_preimage\fR
which will prove payment\&.
.RE
.PP
\fIdestination\fR
.RS 4
the final destination of the payment\&.
.RE
.PP
\fIamount_msat\fR
.RS 4
the amount the destination received, in "NNNmsat" format\&.
.RE
.sp
These three can all be extracted from \fIbolt11\fR, hence are obsolete\&.
.SH "AUTHOR"
.sp
Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp\&.com\&.au> is mainly responsible\&.
.SH "SEE ALSO"
