.SH NAME
|
|
lightning-plugin - Manage plugins with RPC
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
\fBplugin\fR command [parameter] [second_parameter]
|
|
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The \fBplugin\fR RPC command allows to manage plugins without having to
|
|
restart lightningd\. It takes 1 to 3 parameters: a command
|
|
(start/stop/startdir/rescan/list) which describes the action to take and
|
|
optionally one or two parameters which describes the plugin on which the
|
|
action has to be taken\.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The \fIstart\fR command takes a path as the first parameter and will load
|
|
the plugin available from this path\. Any additional parameters are
|
|
passed to the plugin\. It will wait for the plugin to complete the
|
|
handshake with \fBlightningd\fR for 20 seconds at the most\.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The \fIstop\fR command takes a plugin name as parameter\. It will kill and
|
|
unload the specified plugin\.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The \fIstartdir\fR command takes a directory path as first parameter and will
|
|
load all plugins this directory contains\. It will wait for each plugin to
|
|
complete the handshake with \fBlightningd\fR for 20 seconds at the most\.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The \fIrescan\fR command starts all not-already-loaded plugins from the
|
|
default plugins directory (by default \fI~/\.lightning/plugins\fR)\.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The \fIlist\fR command will return all the active plugins\.
|
|
|
|
.SH RETURN VALUE
|
|
|
|
On success, all subcommands but \fIstop\fR return an array \fIplugins\fR of
|
|
objects, one by plugin\.
|
|
Each object contains the name of the plugin (\fIname\fR field) and its
|
|
status (\fIactive\fR boolean field)\. Since plugins are configured
|
|
asynchronously, a freshly started plugin may not appear immediately\.
|
|
|
|
|
|
On error, the reason why the action could not be taken upon the
|
|
plugin is returned\.
