The easiest way to do this is to play with the 'wallet_tx' semantics and have 'amount' have meaning even when 'all_funds' is set. Note that we change the string 'Cannot afford funding transaction' to 'Cannot afford transaction' as this code is also used for withdrawls.

.SH "NAME"
|
|
lightning-fundchannel \- Command for establishing a lightning channel\&.
|
|
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
|
|
.sp
|
|
\fBfundchannel\fR \fIid\fR \fIsatoshi\fR
|
|
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
|
|
.sp
|
|
The \fBfundchannel\fR RPC command opens a payment channel with a peer by commiting a funding transaction to the blockchain as defined in BOLT #2\&. \fBfundchannel\fR by itself does not attempt to open a connection\&. A connection must first be established using \fBconnect\fR\&. Once the transaction is confirmed, normal channel operations may begin\&. Readiness is indicated by \fBlistpeers\fR reporting a \fIstate\fR of CHANNELD_NORMAL for the channel\&.
|
|
.sp
|
|
\fIid\fR is the peer id obtained from \fBconnect\fR\&.
|
|
.sp
|
|
\fIsatoshi\fR is the amount in satoshis taken from the internal wallet to fund the channel\&. The string \fIall\fR can be used to specify all available funds (or 16777215 satoshi if more is available)\&. The value cannot be less than the dust limit, currently set to 546, nor more than 16777215 satoshi\&.
|
|
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
|
|
.sp
|
|
On success, the \fItx\fR and \fItxid\fR of the transaction is returned, as well as the \fIchannel_id\fR of the newly created channel\&. On failure, an error is reported and the channel is not funded\&.
|
|
.sp
|
|
The following error codes may occur:
|
|
.sp
|
|
.RS 4
|
|
.ie n \{\

\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c
|

.RE

.ie n \{\

.el \{\

|

.el \{\

.sp -1
|
|
.IP \(bu 2.3
|
|
.\}
|
|
301\&. There are not enough funds in the internal wallet (including fees) to create the transaction\&.
|

.RE

.RS 4

.ie n \{\

.el \{\

302\&. The output amount is too small, and would be considered dust\&.
|
|
.RE
|
|
.sp
|
|
Failure may also occur if \fBlightningd\fR and the peer cannot agree on channel parameters (funding limits, channel reserves, fees, etc\&.)\&.
