It can be useful for newcomers to have a high-level view of the main
components in eclair. This will help them quickly find where they should
start digging into actual code to achieve what they want.
We're leaving a lot of details out to ensure this document stays up-to-date
and doesn't need to completely change every time we slightly rework internal
details of our architecture.
We keep the GetRoutingState API available in the router as it's useful to
query network information locally (or between actors), but we stop sending
that data to remote nodes.
We now use a regular release zip, and use it in the awseb bundle.
The default logback configuration now logs to a file, like
`eclair-node`, and we use a dedicated logback configuration for AWS
beanstalk.
By default the front reads the node secret key from the node seed in
the standard `.eclair` directory.
When we have a trusted relationship with some of our peers (business
relations, family members, our own mobile wallet, etc) it makes sense to
relax the feerate mismatch constraint.
This must be done per-node, to avoid leaving the gates open for attackers.
