## Common questions about the different Lightning Network implementations
### Can LND and C-lightning nodes open channels to each other and route payments?
* Yes, all [BOLT specification](https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lightning-rfc) compliant implementations can open channels to each other and route payments.
### Can I run LND and C-lightning connected to the same node?
* Yes, both can run parallel on a RaspiBlitz and even have channels witch each other.
### Can I convert an LND node to C-lightning (or the opposite)?
* No, currently there are no tools available to convert between the databases storing the channel states.
The channels would need to be closed to use the same funds in an other node.
### Is there a table to quickly compare LND and C-Lightning?
* see [github.com/openoms/lightning-node-management/blob/master/node-types/comparison.md](https://github.com/openoms/lightning-node-management/blob/master/node-types/comparison.md)

## C-lightning official documentation
* https://lightning.readthedocs.io/
## Commands and aliases
* Check if the C-lightning daemon is running:
```
sudo systemctl status lightningd
```
* Follow it's system output for debugging:
```
sudo journalctl -fu lightningd
```
* The logs can be accessed in the menu `SYSTEM` - `CLLOG`
or with the alias: `cllog`
* The frequently used commands are shortened with alisases. Check them with the command `alias`:
```
alias cl='sudo -u bitcoin /usr/local/bin/lightning-cli --conf=/home/bitcoin/.lightning/config'
alias clconf='sudo nano /home/bitcoin/.lightning/config'
alias cllog='sudo tail -n 30 -f /home/bitcoin/.lightning/bitcoin/cl.log'
```
## Directories
* All data is stored on the disk in:
`/mnt/hdd/app-data/.lightningd`
* and symlinked to:
`/home/bitcoin/.lightningd`
## Config file
* Edit in the menu `SYSTEM` - `CLNCONF` or use the alias `clconf`
### Default values
* on the RaspiBlitz for mainnet
```
network=bitcoin

## Plug-ins
### General info
* https://lightning.readthedocs.io/PLUGINS.html#a-day-in-the-life-of-a-plugin
* https://github.com/lightningd/plugins/
### Directories
* The plugins are installed to:
`/home/bitcoin/cl-plugins-available`
* and symlinked to:
`/home/bitcoin/cl-plugins-enabled`
* All plugins in the `/home/bitcoin/cl-plugins-enabled` directory are loaded automatically as set in the config file: `/home/bitcoin/.lightningd/config`
### Implemented plugins
* summary
* sparko
* [CLBOSS](#clboss)
* [feeadjuster](#feeadjuster)
### Add a custom plugin
* Place the plugin in the `/home/bitcoin/cl-plugins-enabled` directory
* Make sure it is owned by the `bitcoin` user and is executable:
```
sudo chown bitcoin:bitcoin /home/bitcoin/cl-plugins-enabled/PLUGIN_NAME
sudo chmod +x /home/bitcoin/cl-plugins-enabled/PLUGIN_NAME
```
* start with
```
lightnign-cli plugin start /home/bitcoin/cl-plugins-enabled/PLUGIN_NAME
```
* or to load it automatically on restart:
```
sudo systemctl restart lightningd
```
From the directory `/home/bitcoin/cl-plugins-enabled` it will load auomatically after restarts.
* To just load it run it once store in (and start from):
`/home/bitcoin/cl-plugins-available/`
### CLBOSS
A plugin for automatic LN node management.
CLBOSS only requires to have funds deposited to the onchain wallet of C-lightning.
The recommended amount to start is ~ 10 million satoshis (0.1 BTC).
It does automatically:
* generate outbound capacity - opens channels
* generate inbound capacity - submarine swaps through the boltz.exchange API
* aware of onchain fees and mempool through c-lightning and makes transactions when fees are low
* manages rebalancing - performs probing
* closes bad channels (inactive or low traffic) - this function needs to activated manually
Overall it is a tool which makes users able to send and receive lightning payments with minimal interaction, basically setting up a routing node by itself.
The transactions made by CLBOSS does cost money and running it requires a fair amount of trust in the (fully open-source - MIT) code.
Neither the CLBOSS nor the RaspiBlitz developers can take resposibility for lost sats, use at your own discretion!
* Activate it in the menu - `SETTINGS` - `-CL CLBOSS`
* Discussion: https://github.com/rootzoll/raspiblitz/issues/2490
* Advanced usage
https://github.com/ZmnSCPxj/clboss#clboss-status
* Stopping CLBOSS will leave the node in the last state. No channels will be closed or funds removed when CLBOSS is uninstalled.
### Feeadjuster
* Install:
`config.scripts/cl-plugin.feedadjuster.sh on`
* to set the default fees add to the C-lightning `config` file:
```
fee-base=BASEFEE_IN_MILLISATS
fee-per-satoshi=PPM_FEE_IN_SATS
```
* more options for the feeadjuster to be set in the c-lightning config can be seen in the [code](https://github.com/lightningd/plugins/blob/c16c564c2c5549b8f7236815490260c49e9e9bf4/feeadjuster/feeadjuster.py#L318):

### Dual funded channels
#### Reading
* https://medium.com/blockstream/c-lightning-opens-first-dual-funded-mainnet-lightning-channel-ada6b32a527c
* https://medium.com/blockstream/setting-up-liquidity-ads-in-c-lightning-54e4c59c091d
* https://twitter.com/niftynei/status/1389328732377255938
* lightning-rfc PR: https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lightning-rfc/pull/851/files
* represented by the feature bits 28/29
#### Setting up
* activate the feature on your node:
Type: `clconf` or use the menu `SYSTEM` - `CLCONF`.
Add the line:
```
experimental-dual-fund
```
Save and restart C-lightning.
* set up a liquidity ad:
```
lightning-cli funderupdate -k policy=match policy_mod=100
```
or set in the config for example - see the meaning of each line in https://medium.com/blockstream/setting-up-liquidity-ads-in-c-lightning-54e4c59c091d :
```
experimental-dual-fund
funder-policy=match
funder-policy-mod=100
lease-fee-base-msat=500sat
lease-fee-basis=50
channel-fee-max-base-msat=100sat
channel-fee-max-proportional-thousandths=2
```
* check the settings used currently on your node:
```
lightning-cli funderupdate
```
* check your advertised settings (needs some minutes to appear):
```
lightning-cli listnodes $(lightning-cli getinfo | jq .id)
```
#### Open a dual funded channel
* check if a node has onchain liquidity on offer:
```
lightning-cli listnodes nodeid
```
Example:
```
lightning-cli listnodes 02cca6c5c966fcf61d121e3a70e03a1cd9eeeea024b26ea666ce974d43b242e636
```
* list all nodes known in the graph with active offers:
```
lightning-cli listnodes | grep option_will_fund -B20 -A7
```
* note the node `id` and `compact_lease`
* connect to the node
```
lightning-cli connect nodeID@IP_or.onion
```
#### Fundchannel syntax
* the amount is the own funds in the wallet contributed
use equal amounts to have a balanced channel from start
the amounts can be specified in `sat` or `btc`
```
lightning-cli fundchannel -k id=NODE_ID amount=OWN_AMOUNTsat request_amt=PEER_CONTRIBUTION_AMOUNTsat compact_lease=COMPACT_LEASE
```
It can fail if the offer changed or there are not enough funds available on either side.
* open a dual funded channel with a chosen utxo and miner feerate
list the utxo-s with `lightning-cli listfunds`, can list multiple
the feerate is in `perkb` by default, e.g. use 1000 for 1 sat/byte
```
lightning-cli fundchannel feerate=PERKB_FEERATE utxos='["TRANSACTION_ID:INDDEX_NUMBER"]' -k id=NODE_ID amount=OWN_AMOUNTsat request_amt=PEER_CONTRIBUTION_AMOUNTsat compact_lease=COMPACT_LEASE
```
### Offers
* Details at bolt12.org
* Create an offer to receive payments:
https://lightning.readthedocs.io/lightning-offer.7.html
```
lightning-cli offer amount description [vendor] [label] [quantity_min] [quantity_max] [absolute_expiry] [recurrence] [recurrence_base] [recurrence_paywindow] [recurrence_limit] [single_use]
```
* Example:
Create a reusable offer which can be paid with any amount for LN tips using a fixed string.
```
lightning-cli offer any tip
```
* Create an offer to send payments:
https://lightning.readthedocs.io/lightning-offerout.7.html
```
lightning-cli offerout amount description [vendor] [label] [absolute_expiry] [refund_for]
```
* Fetch an invoice to pay an offer:
https://lightning.readthedocs.io/lightning-fetchinvoice.7.html
Will need at least one peer which supports onion the messages. For example:
```
lightning-cli connect 024b9a1fa8e006f1e3937f65f66c408e6da8e1ca728ea43222a7381df1cc449605@128.199.202.168:9735
```
* Then use the command to fetch the BOLT12 invoice:
```
lightning-cli fetchinvoice offer [msatoshi] [quantity] [recurrence_counter] [recurrence_start] [recurrence_label] [timeout] [payer_note]
```
* decode a BOLT12 invoice:
```
lightning-cli decode bolt12_invoice
```
* pay a a BOLT12 invoice:
Will need to pay through a peer which supports the onion messages which means you need at least one channel with such a node.
```
lightning-cli pay bolt12_invoice
```
* see if there is a new invoice is paid with:
```
lightning-cli listinvoices
```
The `pay_index` will increase as the offer gets reused.
### About the feature bits
* https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/107484/how-can-i-decode-the-feature-string-of-a-lightning-node-with-bolt-9
* Convert the hex number from `lightning-cli listpeers` to binary: https://www.binaryhexconverter.com/hex-to-binary-converter and count the position of the bits from the right.
## Testnets
* for testnet and signet there are prefixes `t` and `s` used for the aliases, daemons and their own plugin directory names.
* Testnet
```
# alias:
tcl | tclconf | tcllog
# daemon service name:
tlightningd
# config file:
/home/bitcoin/.lightningd/testnet/config
# plugin directory:
/home/bitcoin/tcl-plugins-enabled
```
* Signet
```
# aliases:
scl | sclconf | scllog
# daemon service name:
slightningd
# config file:
/home/bitcoin/.lightningd/signet/config
# plugin directory:
/home/bitcoin/scl-plugins-enabled
```
## Backups
* https://lightning.readthedocs.io/FAQ.html#how-to-backup-my-wallet
* General details: https://lightning.readthedocs.io/BACKUP.html
### Seed
* By default a BIP39 wordlist compatible, 24 words seed is used to generate the `hsm_secret`
* If the wallet was generated or restored from seed on a RaspiBlitz the seed is stored in the disk with the option to encrypt
* Display the seed from the menu - `CL` - `SEED`
* The file where the seed is stored (until encrypted) is on the disk: `/home/bitcoin/.lightning/bitcoin/seedwords.info`
* Show manually with:
`sudo cat /home/bitcoin/.lightning/bitcoin/seedwords.info`
* If there is no such file and you have not funded the C-lightning wallet yet can reset the wallet and the next wallet will be created with a seed.
### How to display the hsm_secret in a human-readable format?
* If there is no seed available it is best to save the hsm_secret as a file with `scp`.
To display it as text:
```
sudo cat /home/bitcoin/.lightning/bitcoin/hsm_secret | xxd
```
### Channel database
* Stored on the disk and synchronised to the SDcard with the help of the `backup` plugin.
### Recovery
* https://lightning.readthedocs.io/FAQ.html#database-corruption-channel-state-lost
* https://lightning.readthedocs.io/FAQ.html#loss
#### Recover from a cl-rescue file
* use the `REPAIR-CL` - `FILERESTORE` option in the menu for instructions to upload
#### Recover from a seed
* use the `REPAIR-CL` - `SEEDRESTORE` option in the menu for instructions to paste the seedwords to restore
#### Rescan the chain after restoring a used c-lightning wallet
* https://lightning.readthedocs.io/FAQ.html#rescanning-the-block-chain-for-lost-utxos
* Stop `lightningd`:
```
sudo systemctl stop lightningd
```
An ungraceful method:
```
sudo killall ligthningd
* Rescan from the block 700000
```
sudo -u bitcoin lightningd --rescan -700000 --log-level debug
```
* Rescan the last 1000 blocks:
```
sudo -u bitcoin lightningd --rescan 1000 --log-level debug
```
* can monitor in a new window using the shortcut:
```
cllog
```
## Update
### Update to a new C-lightning release
* See the tagged releases by the C-lightning team: [github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/releases](https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/releases)
* Will be able to update to new releases from the menu - `UPDATE` - `CL`
* Since downgrading the lightning database is not allowed the updated version will persist if the SDcard is reflashed.
### Experimental update to the latest master
* this won't persist in case the SDcard is reflashed so will need to manually update again.
* the commadn to use the built-in script to update to the lates commit in the default branch is:
```
config.scripts/cl.install.sh update
```
* if the database version is not compatible with the default version after a downgrade there will be an error message in `sudo journalctl -u lightningd` similar to:
```
Refusing to migrate down from version 178 to 176
```
* in this case update to the next release from the menu or the latest master again with:
```
config.scripts/cl.install.sh update
```
## sqlite3 queries
