This should be more robust in future: we SHA256 all of the deps. For wiregen we prefix with EXPERIMENTAL_FEATURES, since it can effect them. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

.SH NAME
|
|
lightning-createonion - Low-level command to create a custom onion
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
\fBcreateonion\fR \fIhops\fR \fIassocdata\fR [\fIsession_key\fR]
|
|
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The \fBcreateonion\fR RPC command allows the caller to create a custom onion
|
|
with custom payloads at each hop in the route\. A custom onion can be used to
|
|
implement protocol extensions that are not supported by c-lightning directly\.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The \fIhops\fR parameter is a JSON list of dicts, each specifying a node and the
|
|
payload destined for that node\. The following is an example of a 3 hop onion:

The \fIhops\fR parameter is very similar to the result from \fBgetroute\fR however it
|
|
needs to be modified slightly\. The following is the \fBgetroute\fR response from
|

Notice that the payload in the \fIhops\fR parameter is the hex-encoded version
|
|
of the parameters in the \fBgetroute\fR response\.
|
|
.IP \[bu]
|
|
The payloads are shifted left by one, i\.e\., payload 0 in \fBcreateonion\fR
|
|
corresponds to payload 1 from \fBgetroute\fR\.
|
|
.IP \[bu]
|
|
The final payload is a copy of the last payload sans \fBchannel\fR

These rules are directly derived from the onion construction\. Please refer
|
|
\fBBOLT 04\fR (\fIhttps://github.com/lightningnetwork/lightning-rfc/blob/master/04-onion-routing.md\fR) for details and rationale\.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The \fIassocdata\fR parameter specifies the associated data that the onion should
|
|
commit to\. If the onion is to be used to send a payment later it MUST match
|
|
the \fBpayment_hash\fR of the payment in order to be valid\.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The optional \fIsession_key\fR parameter can be used to specify a secret that is
|
|
used to generate the shared secrets used to encrypt the onion for each hop\. It
|
|
should only be used for testing or if a specific shared secret is
|
|
important\. If not specified it will be securely generated internally, and the
|
|
shared secrets will be returned\.
|
|
|
|
.SH RETURN VALUE
|
|
|
|
On success, an object containing the onion and the shared secrets will be
|
|
returned\. Otherwise an error will be reported\. The following example is the
|
|
result of calling \fIcreateonion\fR with the above hops parameter:
|
|
|
|

The \fBonion\fR corresponds to 1366 hex-encoded bytes\. Each shared secret consists
|
|
of 32 hex-encoded bytes\. Both arguments can be passed on to \fBsendonion\fR\.
