lnwallet

The lnwallet package implements an abstracted wallet controller that is able to drive channel funding workflows, a number of script utilities, witness generation functions for the various Lightning scripts, revocation key derivation, and the commitment update state machine.

The package is used within lnd as the core wallet of the daemon. The wallet itself is composed of several distinct interfaces that decouple the implementation of things like signing and blockchain access. This separation allows new WalletController implementations to be be easily dropped into lnd without disrupting the code base. A series of integration tests at the interface level are also in place to ensure conformance of the implementation with the interface.
