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.

lightning-sendinvoice -- Command for send an invoice for an offer
|
|
=================================================================
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
**(WARNING: experimental-offers only)**
|
|
|
|
**sendinvoice** *offer* *label* [*msatoshi*] [*timeout*] [*quantity*]
|
|
|
|
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).
|
|
|
|
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
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|

|
|
- **amount_received_msat** (msat): the amount actually received (could be slightly greater than *amount_msat*, since clients may overpay)
